The memo says the Defense Department is returning to the Biden-era medical policy for transgender service members due to a court order that struck down Hegseth’s restrictions as unconstitutional. The administration is appealing the move, but a federal appeals court in California denied the department’s effort to halt the policy while its challenge is pending.
So the court ordered them too.
The article is making it out like the DoD is "defying" Hegseth, but that seems like a misrepresentaion, as it seems he has to go along with this.
I guess it's a "win" because the DoD isn't openly defying an order...

Some rare good news.
I've maintained that as a serving member, regarding your gender identity, I don't care, the enemy doesn't care and the incoming fire sure as shit don't care.
The Defense Department is complying with a court order that found the restrictions on trans service members unconstitutional. Federal judges have blocked the ban in two separate lawsuits, and one appeals court has denied the department’s request to lift the block while legal challenges proceed.
So balance of powers does exist, if we maintain it.
I wouldn't hold my breath on that. They initially said they were compiling with getting Garcia back only to but when courts said to show they were working towards it. Them the story changed.
I'll be believe they are complying with the old policy in a month if no one says they aren't able to get care.
Trump for trans rights?
Lol no. The only person Trump is for is Trump. No one else comes close.
Hate that the only way to trans Americans to have any right is only if they commit war crimes
Leave the shithole country
Why not encourage people to stay and fight?
Meh thats an option, it been a long slow decline and it seems to be in the final stages now. If there was no fight then there will hardly be now.
