Court partially blocks Trump's directive on transgender military ban
The Hill ^ | 10/30/2017 | Rebecca Kheel

A federal court has blocked President Trump in part from changing the military's transgender policy as a case against his ban works its way in court.

A judge in the U.S. district court for D.C. ruled Monday that Trump's directive changing the transgender policy back to what it was before June 2016 and banning new transgender recruits from enlisting cannot be enforced while the case works it way through the court.

However, the judge denied the plaintiff's motion to block the ban on funds for gender reassignment surgery.

Another bottom level federal judge trying to control policy for the entire country. Get these cross dressers out. Get women out of combat jobs, stop giving away Ranger tabs, get the military back to training to win wars and not rotting at the core as Obama loved.

Why continue to waste $2 Billion dollars every 4 years to elect a president when we have $100,000-dollars-a-year judges running the country?

WTF?!

The military is not a social society nor is it even civilian by definition?! There’s no rationale for blocking this - transgenders are hormone infused and, by definition, chemically unbalanced let alone the psychological issues.

The judge is an idiot and this is, once again, another political judgement where the law or even the intent of the law is ignored in favor o the desired outcome. This judge and his ilk are single handedly continuing to destroy this country

“The judge denied the motion to block the ban on funds for trans surgery.”

What?

So does that mean that ‘Yes’ the military can refuse to pay for trans surgery.
or ‘No’ the military cannot refuse to pay for trans surgery?

So Obama can lift a ban on transgendered in 2016 but Trump can’t reinstate the ban in 2017.

Funny thing... When I was recruiting in the mid 80s, an applicant could be rejected for having an undescended testicle.

How can this be? Judges now tell the CIC how to run the army?

Liberal judges think they have the right to tell you how many times a day you’re allowed to pee.

Here we go again - courts legislating from the bench. IS CONGRESS every going to stand up and stop this? They already have the power (except on SCOTUS) and yet their hatred of Trump is so strong they refuse to act on ANYTHING!!!

Looks like he can’t kick them out yet but doesn’t have to foot the bill for them to mutilate themselves. Military never has been big on elective surgery...

Her real name is probably, "Kolleen Kollar-Kotelly"; she's KKK.
