Military ban from repeat draft dodger Trump says being a trans service member conflicts with “honorable, truthful, disciplined lifestyle”: https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/trump-military-ban-says-being-trans
“While the order itself is vague on the specifics of implementation, its intent is clear: to serve as a ban on trans service members.”
"If implemented broadly, the ban will have immediate and damaging consequences for both trans service members and military readiness across the United States.”
"SPARTA, a leading transgender military advocacy organization, estimates that removing 15,000 transgender service members would result in the loss of an $18 billion capital investment, with the Palm Center projecting an additional $1 billion cost to recruit and train replacements. Notably, up to 73% of these service members are senior enlisted personnel with 12-21 years of experience—expertise that cannot be easily replaced by the U.S. government."
