The Pentagon is enforcing common-sense policies to protect military readiness by removing service members with gender dysphoria. This decisive action reverses the Biden administration’s radical social experiments that distracted from our armed forces’ core mission of defending America.
Defense officials confirmed troops diagnosed with gender confusion will face honorable discharge unless they voluntarily separate first. Sailors have until March 28 to request departure with benefits – a fair compromise respecting their service while prioritizing unit cohesion. Taxpayers shouldn’t fund endless medical treatments that don’t make our military stronger.
Over 4,000 transgender troops across all branches now face separation, including high-ranking officers. The Supreme Court wisely allowed enforcement of this policy, recognizing that woke politics has no place in our warfighting institutions. Our enemies don’t care about pronoun preferences – they care about defeating unprepared soldiers.
This return to sanity follows the disastrous Biden era, when recruitment standards were gutted to push transgender ideology. The military isn’t a social club – it’s a lethal force requiring peak physical and mental fitness. Gender transitions compromise both through costly surgeries and lengthy recovery times.
One Space Force colonel publicly complained about the policy after spending 22 years in uniform. While service is commendable, no individual’s feelings should outweigh the needs of our national defense. Demanding special accommodations sets a dangerous precedent
