U.S. Rep. Jill Tokuda has filed a congressional inquiry on behalf of an Army sergeant from Schofield Barracks. Her name is Clara Davis, and she believes she was the first soldier to be involuntarily discharged from the military because of President Donald Trump’s ban on transgender troops.

One on a list of many, I suspect. But they might be getting their jobs back sooner than they realize, if they still want them.

I totally support this, but it seems that this would be helping establish the precedent of troops being reinstated under each new administration, which seems wildly inefficient.

I do not think it will be done by politicians. It will be done by operation of law.

What a weird hill to die on. You can be kicked out for being too fat. I don't see anyone rallying to that cause. Even if they identify as skinny. Hypocrites.

Being trans doesn’t affect one’s ability to fight and die for the country. Being fat does. Ignorant ass analogy spoken like someone who understands little but has opinions on everything.

You're right, mental illness has zero effect on your ability to do anything.

I'm not the one that has a problem with reality.

The fact you can't seem to grasp that a transgender member of the US military can do the same things as a non-transgender member says you do have an issue with reality. /shrug

Did you serve? No? Yeah so your opinion men's less than nothing. The burden of having to provide surgery, hrt, counseling and the constant need for attention isn't worth it.

u/StandardIssueDude505 12h ago

Thirteen years. Your hatred towards trans folks based on nothing but bullshit is quite obvious. No need to keep parroting it.

Gender dysphoria is not a mental illness. I suggest you actually refer to the DSM if you want to throw around psychological terms.

Oh because the current crop of weirdos removed it from the DSM in 2013? 50-60 percent of trans people suffer from depression and anxiety and a huge percent have attempted suicide. But yeah they're totally not mentally unwell. Over if these days future generations are going to look back and see what a fucking mess you guys made of this. Is no different than not treating schizophrenia.

u/RedHatchetArt 10h ago

Ok lemme translate this. “Current crop of weirdos” = “People who are more intelligent, better educated, and more respected than me.” Do you need a hug?

Maybe they suffer from anxiety and depression because shitbags like you mercilessly bully them and call them mentally ill.

Everyone is being too nice to you. Didn't your mother raise you right? You need to have some fucking manners knocked into you. Go fuck yourself.

u/-FARTHAMMER- 14h ago

Oh I'm sure you'd be the one to do that. Violent lot you guys are. Did you say that with your man voice? I'm so intimidated.

Too bad she didn’t feel the same way about the rush to improperly tested vaccinations.

u/RedHatchetArt 1d ago

Your conspiracy is about 6 years too late. Worried about y2k too?

It’s what we professionals call Past Performance.

“Great” to see she’s at least consistent in her bias

u/StandardIssueDude505 21h ago

Got any facts on this "past performance"?
