Former U.S. Army intelligence analyst Chelsea Manning speaks to reporters outside a U.S. federal courthouse. By Eugene Scott Eugene Scott Reporter covering identity politics for The Fix Email Bio Follow April 11 at 2:10 PM The Trump administration has often opposed transgender rights.
Soon, his administration will take things a step further. On Friday, the U.S. armed forces will ban transgender people from serving, according to a Pentagon memo. “The memo stipulates that a history of gender dysphoria would disqualify applicants to the military unless they have been stable in their biological sex for 36 months, are willing to abide by the rules for that sex, and have not transitioned and do not need to in the view of medical providers,” my colleagues reported.
A lawyer for Chelsea Manning, a former army intelligence officer who came out as transgender in 2013, has praised the Justice Department for its treatment of her.
The cost of her medical needs was how much?
Thank God Trump reversed Obama's horrific transgender / military rule. I do not nor does the majority of Americans want their hard earned tax payer money going towards paying for confused insane individuals sex change surgeries. If im gonna pay for surgeries,it better be for vets
I like the way you squeezed that double entendre in, WAPO.
If orange scrotums ban goes into effect then no one should serve. If this country will not support its soldiers and citizens it does not deserve them to risk their lives for it.
Traitor
Pun intended
Release of military documents should have landed her in jail along side Julian Assange
That’s nice so st Julian of broom cupboard of Knightsbridge will get excellent care in a USA super max how wonderful for Assange and his fourth coming visit to the USA
How far did s/he bend over backwards?
Her needs were impulsive fictions and should have been ignored.
That just doesn’t sound right.
His name is Brad, and he’s a traitor to his country. Let’s be be honest.
Funny... she’s a traitor but Assange is a hero.
Bradley manning* and His* medical needs.
And therefore we should feel okay she got arrested?
The prison system has better health care than many families in the US.
Again in the words of Jim Carey in the movie'LIAR LIAR': STOP BREAKING THE LAW A$$HOLE
Bradley* Traitor
