Washington (AFP) - President Donald Trump's administration has asked a federal court to block the Pentagon from starting the hiring of transgender recruits next year.
The filing by the Justice Department late on Wednesday is the latest in a series of legal measures that have unfolded since Trump sent out three tweets in July saying that transgender troops could not serve "in any capacity" in the military.
Those tweets, later followed by a formal White House memorandum, set off a roar of protest -- with several service members and rights groups quick to sue.
Two federal courts have since temporarily blocked Trump's ban, and the Pentagon was due to start accepting transgender recruits on January 1.
The government's filing calls for a partial delay, specifically that the Pentagon does not accept transgender recruits from that date.

For later.
Outstanding !
I don’t get it. He’s the head of the armed forces!
Great. A large number of them want to join the military to get a “free” sex change operation where they will be given months (at full pay) to recuperate.
good, who needs that BS..
Glad the courts didn’t file a “cease and desist” on our response to Japan for Pearl Harbor.
What jurisdiction do the courts have in the military?
Ah, don’t worry. LGBTQ-PERV people are welcome in Turd-owe’s Canadian Armed Farces. I’m sure there will be a massive torrent of one or two seeking to join Her Majesty’s forces.

Suicide by war. Start a shooting skirmish in a danger area and get your self killed. Fine. And your buddies?
Why the F##K does the president need the courts to stop the Pentagon from ignoring his orders. He’s the Commander in Chief.
Let your yeas mean yea and your nays mean nay.
Apparently some leftist judge somewhere is the head of the armed forces...
The judges run everything, apparently.
And then end up getting discharged because most of them are mentally unstable and shouldn’t be anywhere near the military.
Jail for judges
who legislate law from the bench or take on authority/jurisdiction outside of constitutional authority.
Or caning. Or tar & feathers and run out of town on a rail.
Good. Let the faggots and freaks throw a hissy fit. Enuff and thank you President Trump for being a man.

MONTHS ??? More like a couple of years +++.
Exactly, if they signed up for 2 years they would only make it through basic training before they were on medical leave.
