Sen. Elizabeth Warren Warns That Trump's Ban on Transgenders in Military 'Makes America Less Safe'
CNS News ^ | August 30, 2017

Posted on 08/31/2017 1:26:04 AM PDT by Zakeet

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D.-Mass.) says that President Donald Trump's decision to ban transgenders from the U.S. military will "make America less safe."

"President Trump just issued an official memo that insults the courage and sacrifices being made by thousands of transgender troops, and he once again proved that he cares more about extreme ideology than military readiness," Warren said in a statement released on Friday after the president sent an official memorandum to the Defense Department to implement the ban.

"The President can pretend this decision is about military effectiveness, but it isn't," said Warren. "Banning individuals from serving based on gender identity is shameful and wrong -- and it makes America less safe."

And as we all know, men dressed as women have always been the driving force behind every military victory in history.

Nothing says “resolve to win” like taking 2 months from duty to recover from “medically necessary” surgery to boss one’s forehead and shave one’s Adam’s Apple.

Morons like you make America less safe, Warren.

Warren, Waters, Pelosi, et al can all join Johnson on Guam so it will tip over and capsize. Do it for America, take away Kim Un Mentally Ill’s target.

Please make that an applause line in the 2019 stump speeches for your hand-picked Dem audiences.

People who are confused about whether they are man or woman are the future of the military?

Gives a whole new meaning to “This ain’t your daddy’s navy!”

And “Looking for a few good men!”

does anyone bother to ask “Why” ???

these men who want to be surgically altered in their gender parts to make them appear to be women aren’t going to be on the frontlines...

they go into the military already on the regime of hormones which keeps them from deployment to certain duties...

then they have an operation which leads to months of recovery ...no duty of any kind...

then they either get out on a disability or they get a cushy job far from the frontlines..

I would think they chose jobs which wont cause them to be sent overseas anywhere...

the severity of our country definitely does not depend on these people being in our military...

What really makes America unsafe is having insane idiots like Liz Warren occupy a senate seat.

“And as we all know, men dressed as women have always been the driving force behind every military victory in history.”

As the thought police of the Marxist Left continue to reshape our thinking, yes, indeed, we will all be required to “know” that. Our kids will be tested on it in order to graduate, to get into college, get a job and keep it.

LOL Yes because men want to be women, and women want to be men adds more of an advantage to the country, and the military, regardless of hos mentally nuts they are.
Only the fake indian could come up with such utter crap.

Time Mag says this

“there is no official or exact figure for how many transgender people serve. But the 2016 RAND study estimated that between 1,320 and 6,630 transgender service members are in the active duty military, while between 830 and 4,160 members are in reserves duty. RAND based its study on data from previous research, and estimated midrange figures of 2,450 transgender people in active duty and 1,510 in reserves.”

I can’t believe this. There are 3500 moslems in all 5 uniformed branches. Just one Transgender, Private Manning made 325 million Americans less safe.

Anyone pretending that cutting this issue for the military to deal with isn’t an improvement is doing make believe.

When that happens, they’ll be taught that every American president was a gay socialist atheist except for the Republicans who were the Nazi pro-slavery party. The country of Palestine used to have some Jews living in it I think, but has always belonged to the Muslims. Both Judaism and Christianity were banned after the 9/11 attack of course, so we don’t need to worry about that happening again—just a few reasonable honor killings every now and then. Can you imagine living in a world with conservative Christians? Back then, women had no rights to wear burkas and get beaten by their husbands in accordance with Islamic tradition. It must have been terrible for them. Well, class is dismissed. Is there anyone who has any questions? No? Good. I guess you learned from the last student who had questions he shouldn’t have asked.

The military has been strong for many decades, and we had no cross dressing freaks, but now all of a sudden the left who has gone off the far left rails are now saying mentally instable, people are an advantage, Give me a frigging break.

How we would have won the war in 45 so much quicker if we had cross dressing troops. The Nazis, and Japs would have given up right after Pearl Harbor.

Massive SARC.
