Leftist Judges are now running the Pentagon

It seems that every order or decree President Trump issues is stopped by some court or some committee or other as if he were no one in particular. Where is his authority?

His authority is in the Constitution, and in his hand, but the President is shrewd enough to know that he must first build up his loyal forces within the government, before dropping the iron fist on his enemies.

He's choosing his battles carefully, while keeping the enemy off balance, and leading them into trap after trap.

The Deep State and the left truly have no idea what they're up against.

Is, or is not, the POTUS the commander-in-chief of the U.S. Armed Forces? Does, or does not, the POTUS form military policy with the U.S.? Unlawfully disobeying the orders of a superior officer is frowned upon. Bigly.

Trump’s DOD should simply have announced that the Commander-in-Chief’s directive is absolute and not subject to judicial review.

That bears repeating.

"Trump should tell the federal judges to go pound sand because HE is the CIC and not them."

I agree wholeheartedly with your statement. Yet we know the Present would be sitting in the impeachment dock for obstruction of justice within the month.

Trump needs to tell Mattis that no transgenders will be joining the military.
Mattis either follows his order or he gets fired. Trump then needs to tell his AG to appeal the Obama judges decision to the Supreme Court. Dammit Trump is the Commander in Chief, not Mattis. He needs to quit being bossed around by these generals, every damn one of the prmoted under Obama.

The Constitution was never meant to give all power to one branch.
