The Supreme Court on Tuesday granted the Trump administration's request to allow it to temporarily enforce its restrictions on transgender people serving in the military.
The court, however, did not agree to review the legality of the new policy until the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals has issued a ruling.

Excellent point. The military rejects many people for various medical and emotional flaws.
The liberals are trying to force transsexuals into the military to make a political statement. They are, incorrectly in my opinion, saying it’s a violation of people’s civil rights, to ban transgendered.
Inconvenient truths , such as the fact that gender dysphoria is officially considered a mental condition by the mental health community, are ignored in the liberal zeal to normalize and force feed all facers of the LGBT dream into every part of society.
That’s why the Left will ferociously battle to keep another Trump nominee off the SCOTUS.
A 6-3 conservative majority is a redline for them. Today’s ruling has only raised the stakes in another Supreme Court fight.
Sanity restored, for now. We need another 1-2 Supreme Court seats.
Expect riots.
Settled science says:
XX = Female
XY = Male
I agree, looks like some sanity is returning however this really should have been a unanimous decision.

I am always interested in WHO among the SCOTUS justices decided on the issues. This article simply said this....
“The justices, however, like for the appeals courts to have considered a case before they weigh in, and even then are selective. It takes four justices to agree to hear a case and often they only agree to step in if the appeals courts are deeply divided on an issue.
It takes five justices to agree to agree to stay a lower court ruling.
Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor, and Elena Kagan, of the court’s liberal wing, said they would have denied the application.”
Agreed. TGs need daily hormone treatments. They want the USG to pay for their gender reassignment surgeries, etc. And there are real questions about the mental state of TGs who have much higher suicide rates. Why should the military take on an unnecessary burden for a group who are a miniscule percentage of the total population?
Like I said, its a redline for the
They were humiliated by Kavanaugh. They’ll be doubling down for the next round.
You ain’t seen nothin’ yet.
“This is such BS. When, I was recruiting we had people rejected for all kinds of medical reasons such as an un descended testicle. And we can’t turn people away for crap like this?”
My last 3 years in the active Navy Reserve, 1964/67,I was a recruiter.
My job was to identify the probably healthy good guys for various enlisted specialties of the Navy, possible OCS candidates, Annapolis candidates, Security Group Candidates and to eliminate those who could not do a good job in our Navy. These were guys, who had passed the minimal tests to be in our Navy given by the Personnel guys. Also, I often told candidates to check out the Marine Corp recruiter.
Even those selected by me and then my CO, were told that they had to pass a physical like every candidate, a police and a possible FBI background check/Credit Check for some specialties.
Later, our Navy Corp men eliminated many candidates, and then Navy doctors had the final yes or no re physical problems/abilities.
Also, they had to have an approved/stamped birth certificate from the state where they were born not a foreign country’s BC.
In spite of getting by the first leg of the recruitment process, about another 30% of candidates were turned down re physical requirements or legal problems.
Years later, any candidate had to pass a drug test.
People diagnosed with gender dysphoria are mentally ill. They have to be on hormone meds, correct? How the heck did they get into the military in the first place?
And how many sex changes have we Taxpayer footed? Six? A dozen?
So tired of the teeny TINY percentage of LUNATICS (hardly even measurable!) running the asylum.
This is a step in the right direction. MAGA! :)
“Why would the Court intervene in a military decision? Anything in the Constitution permitting that? What other military decisions would it second guess? Troop deployment? Military strategy? Hiring? Funding?”
Careful now. Don’t give liberal judges any ideas!

-—————————————————————————————Why are liberals in government, media and on main street so concerned about a decent person becoming a Supreme Court Justice?:
Congress, Presidents, governors, legislatures, IRS/FBI/DOJ and all others set up potential possible judicial decisions, which often are Decided by the Supreme Court often by one vote by the Swing Justice.
Limbaugh estimates “80% of the leftist agenda stuffed into our culture was not voted on but rather was the result of the courts.”
Often by one vote.
*The federal circuit judges (HI,OR,CA especially), and the Supreme Court 5-4 decisions totally run our religious practice, life and death such as abortion, immigration and our borders, our sex lives and definitions of gender, and all types of private and public activity and taxation.
*Thanks to frank ballenger for clarifying the America, we have lived in since FDR.
Exactly! My son had a hell of a time because he “was” on ADHD meds. The kid is a near perfect prospect!
And, the only winners would be the trial lawyers who would be suing members of the military for looking cross-eyed at cross-dressing transvestite in uniform.
RBG had just came from her gym workout to vote.
More temporary winning!
I wonder how many of the potential RAT presidential candidates will strongly condemn this?
Exactly...
