Good Morning.
The First Felon continues to set the table with meat and drink for his cultists.
For a group that allegedly supports the military at all costs, their target is questionable. But then again, there's their obsession with genitalia at play.
It's curious that they would all be 'medically discharged'. But of course, they all think that there is something 'wrong' with their target anyway. Medical Discharges entail a bit of work, however.
There is, of course, a certain pettiness to all this. What would be the immediate effect of kicking out so many active-duty servicemembers?
And lastly - who is their target, exactly?
That will be all for today.

President-elect Donald Trump's transition team is developing an executive order that would medically discharge the estimated 15,000 transgender service members from the military, according to several international news outlets. The sudden dismissal of so many troops would prove chaotic, advocates supporting LGBTQ+ service members say, and the military services would be forced to fill gaps and compensate for a loss of experience at a time when recruiting remains a struggle.
Trump transition team spokesperson Karoline Leavitt did not deny the accuracy of the reports when emailed by Military.com, but said that "no decisions on this issue have been made."
It's curious that they would all be 'medically discharged'. But of course, they all think that there is something 'wrong' with their target anyway. Medical Discharges entail a bit of work, however.
Typically, medical discharges require that service members go through rounds of hearings before medical professionals who determine whether a condition prevents them from fully serving in the military -- a process that can last months.
There is, of course, a certain pettiness to all this. What would be the immediate effect of kicking out so many active-duty servicemembers?
The sudden nature of the proposed discharges could mean that service members near key milestones for benefits would be booted from the military before becoming eligible. Some of those service duration-based benefits include the level of retirement pay they may receive, as well as whether they can receive help paying for college or other education benefits.
And lastly - who is their target, exactly?
SPARTA Pride, a nonprofit organization supporting current and prior transgender service members, told Military.com in an emailed statement that there are approximately 15,000 transgender Americans serving and stationed around the world and in combat.
Additionally, SPARTA Pride detailed that many of these service members come with a wide range of experience, stating that "the average transgender service member is a senior NCO with 12 years' experience and at least two deployments."
That will be all for today.
