Will Get Transgender Ideology The Hell Out Of Our Military: Trump

ABP News  

United States President Donald Trump is expected to sign several executive orders focused on the military, which includes removing “transgender ideology” from the force and reinstating troops booted for refusing COVID-19 vaccines, as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth began his first day on the job. On his first day in office, Trump signed an executive order revoking the Biden administration’s 2021 directive that allowed trans people to serve openly in the military, but the incoming executive orders will go further. “Unit cohesion requires high levels of integrity and stability among service members,” a White House document previewing the order on transgender soldiers reads, as per the report. This is not conducive for deployment or other readiness requirements.” In 2017, when Trump was first elected president, he has banned transgender Americans from serving in the military, but then-President Joe Biden issued an order in 2021 repealing the ban.
