Liberal female judge blocks Trump, orders military to keep accepting current and future transgenders

If you don't have any connection to our armed forces you probably didn't know that your former socialist muslim emperor ordered our Defense Department to use taxpayer funds to pay for sex-change operations for transgender service members.

If that idea strikes you as utterly stupid, and a gross mis-use of defense dollars, join the club.  There should be no place in our armed forces for emotionally confused snowflakes, under any circumstances.

So a few months ago President Trump issued a directive countermanding the emperor's deliberate attempt to reduce military readiness, telling the military they no longer had to pay for sex-change operations for transgenders, and to stop allowing transgenders to join the armed forces.  It was a great boost to military morale.

Well...as you could guess, trans activists, leftists (all of whom hate the U.S. military) and assorted communists immediately sued to block this order, wailing that our military not only HAD to accept transgender snowflakes but HAD to pay for any trannies who demanded sex-change operations.

And yesterday--as you could also guess if you're over 20 or so--a federal judge from the cesspool that is Washington D.C. blocked much of President Trump’s directive until the lawsuit works its way through the federal courts--which could take years.

The ruling, by Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly (appointed by Bill Clinton) breaks new legal ground for courts in Washington, D.C., because she decreed that being "transgender" is a “quasi-suspect legal category"--a new and that entitled to heightened protections under federal law.  She declared that Trump’s policy creates an “inherent inequality” that likely violates the Constitution.

“All of the reasons proffered by the president for excluding transgender individuals from the military in this case were not merely unsupported, but were actually contradicted by the studies, conclusions and judgment of the military itself,” she wrote.

You should know that this last part is contrived:  The Pentagon is thick with homosexuals and assorted leftists, and they've produced any number of bullshit, made-as-ordered studies saying whatever Barack Hussein Obama wanted said.  But no one bothered to ask the actual troops how well transgendered persons performed.  And of course clever officers/commanders are savvy enough to "officially report" whatever they think their bosses want reported.

The judge ordered the military not to discharge any transgender troops, and to continue to allow current or avowed future trannies to enlist — though she did allow the administration’s ban on the Pentagon paying for gender-reassignment treatments to remain in place.

But Judge Kollar-Kotelly, appointed to the federal district court in Washington by President Clinton, said the new policy illegally singles out transgender troops for different treatment.  By decreeing that transgender status is a “quasi-suspect class,” this liberal judge gave transgenders a special, protected status under which any policy affecting them faces extra scrutiny by the courts.

This means the government must show a compelling purpose for any difference in the way the special class is treated — a bar the judge said Mr. Trump fell well short of.  The judge also said that even if "transgender issues" weren't considered, the president's order "broaches critical gender lines," and so would trigger heightened judicial scrutiny anyway.

“It is well-established that gender-based discrimination includes discrimination based on non-conformity with gender stereotypes,” she wrote.  “The [exclusion] of transgender individuals inherently discriminates against current and aspiring service members on the basis of their failure to conform to gender stereotypes. The defining characteristic of a transgender individual is that their inward identity, behavior, and possibly their physical characteristics, do not conform to stereotypes of how an individual of their assigned sex should feel, act and look,” the judge concluded.

Wow.  This bullshit "decree" is so horribly flawed that one hardly knows where to begin to take it apart.  So might as well start here:  Does anyone believe a convicted murderer has the right to join the U.S. military?  No?  Why not?  If one argues--as this judge did--that the overriding principle of who gets to join is "fairness," doesn't the idea of "fairness" and "equal treatment" apply to everyone?

Could a color-blind person sue to join?  Again, doesn't fairness demand...?  How about someone who requires daily dialysis?  How about a hemophiliac?  All are delightful people, but are they legally allowed to force the military to let them join?

The military has never allowed people with these conditions to join.  The reason is reduced capability.  But this liberal judge has never been in the military and obviously couldn't care less about how her decrees affect military capability and readiness.  Her interests lie elsewhere.

Next:  There is NO law giving transgender snowflakes special legal status.  All of Colleen Kollar-Kotelly's prattle giving special protected status--or as she coyly, cunningly phrases it, "quasi-suspect legal category"-- to transgenders is an effort to write "gender" into the Civil Rights Act of 1972.  But neither that law nor any other confers such status.

Wikipedia (I know) accidentally tells the truth:

It wasn't until U.S. President Barack Obama who [sic] redefined, or refocused, this law to apply to a host of things like sexual orientation, gender identity, physical/mental handicap, among others through a series of "Dear Colleague" letters that are still to this day in legal limbo.

"Accidentally" because Obozo repeatedly "wrote law" by decree, as in the case of asserting that transgenders were entitled to special status.  This is the illegal, unconstitutional peg on which this judge is trying to hang her decree.
