The Trump Justice Department is asking for an emergency stay to allow it to ban transgender people from the military.
The Air Force says transgender service members have to leave before the end of March or face an uncertain future.
“This litigation is not about a medical condition. A medical condition has not given its country decades of military service…People have. Transgender people,” U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes said.
“The Department of Defense does not track service members or applicants by gender identity,” DOJ lawyers told a judge in a Saturday filing.
The internet isn't having it with Pete Hegseth.
The Department of Justice has until Tuesday morning to assure Judge Ana Reyes that trans troops aren't being professionally impacted.
