thank you for pinging me on this article. Hopefully the new administration will cancel this ‘social engineering test’ that bh0 wanted as one of his efforts to destroy the US military.

Do Federal judges have jurisdiction over Military, DOD policy?

That is at BEST questionable.

They do have appellate jurisdiction over military court martial decisions and always have.

However, seeing as how the US military has almost all of the heavy weapons, it has always been the past practise of the courts to tread lightly, since they really can't enforce their dictates under such circumstances.

Recently, the Obama Administration (?) gave the Federal courts authority to initiate atrocities charges if the military courts do not act in a specific situation...an HUGE break from precident. As Commander in Chief of the Military, it was his prerogative. This could change with the stroke of a pen on an EO. Again, however, since Congress determines the jurisdiction and scope of actions of the Federal courts, there is some question of whether or not Obama's actions were legal.

Bottom line is that the Federal courts have usually stayed out of such matters. You don't want to p!$$ off the people who have all the guns and answer only to the executive branch. i don't expect that will much change since even though maybe corrupt, Federal judges aren't usually that stupid.

Considering that the decision to open service to mentally ill cross dressers was NOT made through the proper channels at all (Congress) this new policy should be squashed right away as invalid.

A Case?

Look Mom and Dad - no religiously, equally detached from reality, state-establishment required to build that -- just good ol' common sense and...

SCIENCE!

It’s purely a medical issue. People that confused about their sex are not medically qualified for duty.
