Pentagon Reveals Policies to Roll Back Military Trans Ban

On Wednesday, the Pentagon announced new Defense Department policies to reverse the transgender military ban that was but into place by the Trump administration.

The new policies will allow transgender people to enlist and serve in the military under their preferred gender. Never mind the fact that gender dysphoria is a mental disorder and transgenders commit suicide at alarmingly high rates, or the fact that having men in women’s barrack rooms or women in the men’s barracks rooms just because they “identify” as the other gender is a terrible idea.

The new policies will also allow transgender people to have access to gender transition surgery and medicines.

"Secretary of Defense [Lloyd Austin] strongly believes that the all-volunteer force thrives when it is composed of diverse Americans who can meet the high standards for military service, and an inclusive force that strengthens our national security posture," said Pentagon press secretary John Kirby said.

The new rules, which will be effective in 30 days, follow a two-month review at the Pentagon in the wake of Biden's order, which “sets the policy that all Americans who are qualified to serve in the Armed Forces of the United States should be able to serve.”

The order revoked President Trump’s 2017 and 2018 orders banning transgender military service and immediately stopped the military from forcing out any service member on the basis of gender identity.

Prior to the Trump-era ban, transgender troops were covered by a 2016 Obama administration policy that allowed them to serve openly.

But in 2017, Trump blindsided Department of Defense (DOD) leadership when he tweeted he would reverse the open service policy and would “not accept or allow transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. Military.”

‘Captain Underpants’ Children’s Books Cancelled for ‘Passive Racism’

Just another day in the day and age of cancel culture! Today they are cancelling the children’s book series “Captain Underpants.” The books are being pulled from libraries and book shelves after its publishes declared it “perpetuates passive racism.”

I read those books when I was in middle school, and I truly do not remember anything in them that could even be close to racist. Then again, everything today is racist. Just the character wearing white underwear is probably “racist” to the left.
