How Brett Kavanaugh could cement Trump's transgender military ban
The Washington Examiner ^ | October 8, 2018 | Travis J. Tritten

Justice Brett Kavanaugh may be joining the Supreme Court just in time to help decide whether President Trump can, at least temporarily, put new restrictions on transgender military service, an advocacy group said on Monday.

A federal appeals court in Portland, Ore., will hear a Trump administration appeal on Wednesday morning asking that a preliminary injunction be lifted so the Pentagon can enforce a policy barring many transgender people from enlisting while the issue is litigated. Four federal lawsuits have been filed and could go to trial sometime next year.

Depending on the outcome of the appeal, the question of whether to lift the injunction and allow the Pentagon to move forward in the meantime could be appealed to the Supreme Court, where Kavanaugh is a new conservative justice after being sworn in over the weekend....

I can’t stand that it’s pitched as a “ban.” As if gravity is a “ban” on things falling up.

No way! Way!

We could ask Donald Young. If he was still alive, that is.

Only the tabloids would cover it. And they spoke with Donald Young's MOTHER about it. Anybody who wondered about one of his agendas wasn't paying attention.

We will see how the court is with Roberts as the new “swing” vote.

Since Roberts hasn’t even hit Social Security age yet, what is his health issue? I haven’t heard of one previously. The others I know: Breyer - age; Ginsburg - age & possible health; Sotomayor - health.

The “ban”, IIRC, is against people with Gender Dysphoria. It is similar to restrictions on a lot of personality disorders. It can be waived in certain circumstances. Also, people who identify as transgender but aren’t plagued by Gender Dysphoria can serve. People who have already transitioned and are no longer plagued by Gender Dysphoria can serve. It’s the people who are internally tortured who are proscribed from serving. They are prone to suicide at much higher rates than the general public, particularly if there’s no support from a loving family - hard to find in the mountains of Afghanistan.

I will wager that Kavanaugh will go slowly on showing his conservative strips and let other justices take the lead for a short while until things are more forgotten. Then he will be free to speak his mind.

For the moment, all that is needed is his vote. Maybe he can even do some “split the baby” comments recommendations that will make those evil Democrats stop attacking him.

Just a thought.

"How Brett Kavanaugh could cement Trump's transgender transvestite military ban"

I feel the need to correct that whenever I can.

Don't let the left run their vocabulary con.

Aside from that, to get down to the crux of the matter, the U.S. Military has every right to enforce behavior codes in the ranks for the advantage of dicipline. Homosexuality and any related behavior is.. a behavior.

So true—it’s transvestite, not transgender. Transgender is a scientific impossibility.

I knew homosexuals in the Army and I was in during Carter and Reagan. I’ll bet other veterans will tell you the same.

Actually "Michelle" is a dude. Obama is married to a dude, and he passed off his rump-ranger buddy as First Lady of The United States of America for 8 years.  All of Hollywood knows about it. It is also an open secret in Washington DC. All the former Presidents know about it, all foreign governments knew about it, all foreign intelligence services know about it. The English, the French, the Israeli's, the Russians, the Chinese. Everyone in the world knows that Obama was/is a flaming fem boy fagget and that he's married to a dude. The only one's that don't know about it are the dumb masses. The American public.

Watch the crotch..

Alex Jones, BION, actually had that video posted.

I’m sure it didn’t sit well with Democrats.

Michelle’s either got a hidden medical condition which requires a device under her clothing or.....
