President elect Donald Trump reportedly plans to issue an executive order on his 'first day in office' to ban transgender members of the military.
The controversial order would cause as many as 15,000 active service members to be 'medically discharged' - deeming them unfit to serve, according to The Times.
Trump seeks to issue the executive action on January 20, 2025 or Day 1 of his term, the Times said, preventing any transgender people from enlisting in the military as all branches continue to struggle with recruitment.
The 78-year-old former president has nominated former Fox News host Pete Hegseth to lead the Department of Defense and has pledged to purge all government agencies of 'woke' policies.
In a podcast interview recently, Hegseth called the inclusion of transgender people in the service 'pushing boundaries.'
He suggested that you can't integrate trans people in as easily as people of different races were integrated 'because being transgendered in the military causes complications and differences.”
Hegseth also said that transgender people were 'not deployable' because they are 'reliant on chemicals.'
DailyMail.com has reached out to spokepersons for Trump for comment.

‘Medically discharged’ means they will still use up benefits for vets with actual injuries for the rest of their lives.
I remember an “inlaw” who parleyed a high school football injury into a “service caused injury” got discharged and never did a real job the rest of his life. He was scheduled for an “Undesirable discharge” but his vet father and a congressman got it changed to a medical one. He is now buried in a military cemetery.
Laziest person I ever knew in my life. Constantly welched off his parents until they died and never paid back a cent.
The Military has one and only one mission: National Defense.
Whatever serves this is the only legitimate policy.
Anticipate some sabotage.
I, for one, prefer not to have mentally challenged men who like to dress up in women’s clothes, makeup, etc. charged with the defense of our country.
My nephew was rejected for an ROTC scholarship because he had a peanut allergic reaction when he was 8. They gave him the scholarship and then rescinded it two weeks later.
“ You would have to have actively recruited for that specific mental illness to get numbers like that.”
Obama started this shit, Trump will end it.
People I know in the service have to grumble under their breath when issues regarding the present commander in chief come up. They will be proud when Trump is back!
The Thresher II.
Winnng!!!!!
Good. No mentally defective person should be carrying a gun in uniform.
Love this, but why are all of Trump’s plans being broadcast before he takes office, opening up the opportunity for radical leftists to attempt foil his plans?
You're right. Should not be encouraged anywhere in society. Like you say, it's a mental illness and should be encouraged to about the same extent of cancer.
I’d have to see it to believe it. Trumps no doubt my choice, but I really can’t recall him being overly tough on the homos...
:)
Purge the fags!
Ah, send the to fight with Ukraine...
Them, not the. 😣
We just might have a military that will kill our enemy’s and break things.
They can never be combat certified...
FYI, they don’t just “cut it off.” They split it down the middle, and form it into a “vagina.” It shocked me too.
They join specifically cause they are recruited and they get free health care for all their perversions...
