PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) – Oregon Senators Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley are co-sponsoring a bill that would ban discrimination against transgender military members.

The Fit to Serve Act would prohibit the Department of Defense from banning transgender service members from the military and would ban the department from listing gender identity as a qualification for service.

The Fit to Serve Act was led by Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and co-sponsored by other senators, including Sens. Cory Booker (D-N.J.), Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.)

Another fine mess the scatter brained far left-wing nuts are trying to stir up.

[VanShuyten]

“ The Fit to Serve Act …”

Another Orwellian name for a Dim bill.

[GMThrust]

They are NOT fit to serve, that’s the issue.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

*PING*

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Exactly. These people are mentally ill and must not be placed in postions where life and treasure are at stake.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

Are the recruiting numbers so LOW that our Military needs to have taken these mentally ill people into their rank in the past decade?

Um...who is in CHARGE of military recruiting, across the board? Kickbacks? What would cause this insanity in the first place?

[Fungi]

Evil personified. What is next? I can’t think of anything short of total control and killing everyone they oppose.
Read Romans 1:18-32, in addition to this. The Lord curse them.
Isaiah 5:20
King James Version
20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

They never tire of spitting in the face of God.

Keep these mentally ill freaks out of our military!

[arthurus]

Narrowly they are not UNfit to serve because they are transsexuals but rather because they are undeployable due to their close relationships to the hospital and the pharmacy.

• "I feel like a tree that grew in the wrong direction": Come hear the thoughts of Noah, who detransitioned after 4 years on estrogen [06/05/2025]
• Detransitioning TikToker was 'horrified' after LGBT activist claimed 'detransitioning' is not 'a real thing' [12/21/2022]
• Ex-trans Navy SEAL: 'Wake up!' Trans craze 'destroyed my life' and 'it's killing these kids' [12/17/2022]

[Nervous Tick]

The DemonRats are choosing a strange (!) hill to die on. Trannymania has <30% support in the electorate. Well, maybe a bit higher in Taxachusetts, Commiefornia and Ore-gone.

[Petrosius]

Where is the Republican bill defining gender according to biological sex?

[hal ogen]

The DIMS are so pathetic. That they want the mentally ill to be in the military strongly suggests THEY are mentally disturbed. What flailing nitwits.

[Bobbyvotes]

So the democrat senators want transgender females with male organ using women’s locker room and bath room?

[meyer]

There is no place in the military (or elsewhere) for people that are so deluded as to believe that they’re something that they are not, and that think everyone else should play along with their charade.

"Are the recruiting numbers so LOW that our Military needs to have taken
these mentally ill people into their rank in the past decade?"

Back in the day when I was in the USN, a fellow shipmate went before the
mast for a bad sunburn.

These whackos are attempting to legitimize surgeries that can sideline
mentally deficient service members for months.

As well as the lifetime medications required to 'stabilize' mental cases.

[madison10]

No, then numbers have improved greatly since President Trump took over. I think that is precisely BECAUSE he banned the sexually insane. I think recruits like Hegseth, too.

[Cold Heart]

That goes for those two senators also.

[jonrick46]

We all know all this gender bender nonsense is a Marxist effort to reshape society into a nation of slaves to the state. Why is it that California, Oregon and Washington are all following the same script? They are the “Coastal Locos.”

[jonrick46]

This effort to get transsexuals in the military is for getting free sex change operations along with the medications it might take. The cost is in the $thousands.
