Heartbreaking. As the child of a military father & partner of a veteran, I'm deeply ashamed & even more disgusted & sad. I feel like I'm in a nightmare every day & pray I wake up, but never do.
A dystopian nightmare. And what really gets me is seeing all these Hispanic Trump voters that are freaking out, crying and shocked by this.
It breaks my heart but we tried so hard to tell them! L 🙈
Don't be surprised if we start hearing about some sort of 'don't ask, don't tell' policy all over again. Or even harsher policies. https://youtu.be/2ajp_-U1b8c
I just saw my first Army recruiting commercial in a long time tonight - on MTV. Very diverse, of course I'm not expecting that anything has been recorded in this last week - but I think it won't be liked by the new administration. I can't find it online, or I would link it here.
Good, this just means less Trans people fighting for a country that doesn’t deserve their service. And less trans folks dying in wars that serve no purpose.
Trump wants to clean out Gaza.
Trump releases criminals.
Trump starts Mass deportations.
Trump wants ban on trans gender in the military.
Trump raises prescription prices.
Trump has allowed the worst among us to hurt & bully anyone they don’t like.
Just a reminder that a serial liar, cheat, and adulterer who never served a day in his life has the sheer unmitigated GALL to accuse anyone else of not being true to themselves is on a level of hypocrisy that could choke a horse.
this decision is discriminatory and harmful, it undermines the principles of equality and fairness, and ignores the valuable contributions transgender troops make to the military.
I remember, a few weeks ago, that the reason Democrats gave for Biden signing a Defense Bill Blocking Health Care For Trans Military Children was because "At least it protects trans service members".
No, the real reason was Democrats didn't give a shit about trans people.
Seriously, WHO CARES what gender a SOLDIER is?!? If a person will defend our country from threats, I DON'T CARE WHAT THE GENDER OR SEXUAL IDENTITY IS. Targeting people for gender/sexual identity is CRUEL.
@fpwellman.bsky.social Side by side convo's on x with a family member, specific to lgbtq culture or left politics is subverted. The 2nd is me trying to post it, the "button" is inaccessible, image is degraded, and more
I said something about Caitlyn using Kari Lake's filter and got called a transphobe...I say that about every GQP terrorist...and when Caitlyn spews garbage, she needs to be insulted. I'm an equal opportunity insulter
Same here, and nobody intimates me or will stop me from calling out GOP hypocrisy. Caitlyn is not supporting her community, she’s destroying it by supporting him and his anti trans policies. I’m on on their side (trans community) and support their right to exist and have rights.
The blue states may need to succeed from the union and start our own country. Trump wants to stop federal dollars flowing to CA to help with wildfires; he tried to deport Native Americans; he is pulling research funding; wants to give tax breaks to the rich.
Trump’s Pentagon move to strip DEI programs has erased the stories of the Tuskegee Airmen & WASPs—heroes who shattered barriers in WWII. How do you alienate voters in one move? Dismiss the very people who fought for freedom. History deserves better. #TuskegeeAirmen #DEI
Who cares who someone is.
If they pass the tests and the physical tests and want to represent America, then as far as I'm concerned, they are qualified. Let people be who they were born to be.
Just bc you don't understand them doesn't mean you have to hate them.
Only weak people do that.
I'm betting that they will use this same 'medical' framework to ban gays and lesbians next. These moves will make it impossible for the military to fulfil their recruitment goals.

If gay and trans soldiers are doing a better job than a white cis dude, then what does that say about him?
(It says nothing)
