Is Chaya Raichik Responsible for Dozens of Hospital and School Bomb Threats?

Four police force representatives believe that the social media posts by Raichik are responsible for the bomb threats at the institutions that they are tasked to protect. But because of the nature of the threats they lack proof. However, the timing of the threats and the 2859 deleted tweets by libsoftiktok make Raichik highly suspect.

In an emailed response to Vice, as reported by Them, Raichik denied that she or her followers were in any way culpable for the roughly 20 bomb threats documented in the investigation. Yet the meteoric rise in anti-LGBTQ+ violence in the U.S. and abroad has been repeatedly connected to false accusations of pedophilia and sexual abuse pushed by Raichik and others. Still, Raichik’s accounts on X, formerly Twitter, remain in good standing, and she counts Elon Musk among her followers.

In a 2024 media post, Raichik falsely claimed that no one had been arrested for bomb threats that she felt she was being "blamed" for.

The U.S. Attorney's Office, District of Massachusetts announced in a 2023 press release that Catherine Leavy, 37, pleaded guilty to one count of making a false bomb threat and one count of intentionally conveying false or misleading information that a bomb was on the way to Boston Children’s Hospital. U.S. District Court Judge Leo T. Sorokin scheduled sentencing for March 19, 2024. Leavy was initially arrested and charged by criminal complaint in September 2022 and subsequently indicted by a federal grand jury in October 2022.

Thank you @AOC for calling out @Twitter for supporting Chaya Raichik / Libs of TikTok even after incitement of threats against Boston Children’s Hospital by wielding misinformation — & calling the GOP “the party that cannot pick on anybody their own size”. pic.twitter.com/YBLyCARwmz

Before Leavy’s Sept. 2022 arrest by the FBI, The Rolling Stones reports, the Boston Children’s bomb threat became a controversial news item with popular conservative and right-wing commentators online, who insinuated that the threat was a hoax created by the mainstream media. These talking points emerged after an article from The Washington Post’s Taylor Lorenz reported that targeted posts from the Libs of TikTok account on X (formerly Twitter) had caused increased harassment for staff at the Boston Children’s Hospital. Much of the harassment centered around a tweet from Libs of TikTok owner Chaya Raichik, who said that Boston Children’s performed hysterectomies on girls under 18, a claim the hospital denied to the Post. Raichik, Daily Wire host Matt Walsh, and Chris Rufo of the Manhattan Institute posted tweets insinuating the threat was fake, even accusing Lorenz of coordinating it.

Leavy faces up to 15 years in prison and a fine of up to half a million dollars. Her sentencing has been scheduled for March 19, 2024.

Chaya Raichik, are you aware of the one thing that truly makes the United States great? Our Lady Justice never rests until justice is done.

Trans Youth Summer Camp: a great place to be

Yesterday I saw a Facebook post, just a regular post from Trans youth equality.org asking for donations to send trans youth to their summer camp.

A post shared by @transyouthequality

It was so disturbing what I saw. The post had hundreds of hateful transphobic comments and only a couple of shares. When I returned today all of the comments had been deleted and the commenting turned off.

Why this matters to me and should matter to you regardless if you are trans or an ally.

Some of my most cherished memories are from my summers at our beloved scout camp. We canoed, hiked, slept under the stars, learned how to live in peace with nature, and even camped when it was 20 degrees below zero! I eventually was voted to attend a weekend at the camp by my troup and earned the right to call myself a Sister in the Order of the Arrow and a life scout.

Ours wasn't a trans-only camp, like the Trans youth equality.org but in the 70s and by today's standards, it was inclusive, character-building, and challenging. Reading those hateful comments one thing became clear. None of those transphobic degenerates who commented had the benefit of character-building of any kind in their youth. And that is when it became personal.

It also became clear that this is a concerted effort to harm trans and gender-expansive youth. It was so bad that for the first time, the administrators of the Trans Youth Equality Facebook page turned off comments and posted this:

"URGENT: TYEF was recently attacked in terrible ways by Libs of TikTok and Elon Musk (thanks Elon for your transphobic comment about our work and the over 20 million hateful comments you KNOW you were going to send our way), You would be shocked if you were ever confronted by the uninformed haters in the anti trans youth community.. It's very dark. We have an extremely sophisticated security system now, new layers of support and frequent contact with law enforcement including local police, the FBI and DOJ. So please note, the children and youth we serve deserve support, deserve that decisions are made by their parents and doctors and we continue to serve and educate."

"Can we all recommit to supporting trans specific orgs on the ground making a difference. Can we ask you to please make a donation to TYEF today, any amount you can afford because the assault on our org has been rough and cost us unplanned expenses. We were doxxed. If this has ever happened to you, you know how complicated and frustrating it can be. Can we get support? This is the first truly large attack on us. We are standing strong but we need you to stand with us. Or ask about volunteer positions, ways to help, raise some funds....etc. Thanks for listening. We have been doing this work for almost 20 years, from a time there was little to no support anywhere in this country for trans youth. We have great stories, great people who have helped, amazing kids served. We thank each of you for helping us afford to keep going over the years. We will get thru this time.We love each of our allies. please donate.

TYEF is a 501c3 non profit. We are grateful to you. *please note that we have turned off comments on all of our posts though we love to hear your responses. What we do not need is this forum to be used for hate instead of a safe place to be and to share.
