First 4 of 13 pages of the DoD policy on transgender servicemembers. How is kicking out tens of thousands of honorably serving servicemembers not going to hurt our military? This is an unjust act. Trans folks serve at twice the rate of cis folks. This is a travesty.

I'm at the US District Court in DC today, for the preliminary injunction hearing of open trans service in Talbott v Trump. Judge Ana C. Reyes is meticulously going through the EO, seeking reasoning for each line.

White, cis, het.

SECRETARY OF DEFENSE 1000 DEFENSE PENTAGON WASHINGTON, DC 20301-1000 FEB-7 2025 MEMORANDUM FOR SENIOR PENTAGON LEADERSHIP COMMANDERS OF THE COMBATANT COMMANDS DEFENSE AGENCY AND DOD FIELD ACTIVITY DIRECTORS SUBJECT: Prioritizing Military Excellence and Readiness The Department of Defense's (DoD) mission requires Service members to abide by strict mental and physical standards. The lethality, readiness, and warfighting capability of our Force depends on Service members meeting those standards. The Department must ensure it is building "One Force" without subgroups defined by anything other than ability or mission adherence. Efforts to split our troops along lines of identity weaken our Force and make us vulnerable. Such efforts must not be tolerated or accommodated. As the President clearly stated in Executive Order 14183, "Prioritizing Military Excellence and Readiness," January 27, 2025: "Expressing a false 'gender identity' divergent from an individual's sex cannot satisfy the rigorous standards necessary for Military Service." Effective immediately, all new accessions for individuals with a history of gender dysphoria are paused, and all unscheduled, scheduled, or planned medical procedures associated with affirming or facilitating a gender transition for Service members are paused. Individuals with gender dysphoria have volunteered to serve our country and will be treated with dignity and respect. The Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness is authorized and delegated the authority to provide additional policy and implementation guidance outside of the normal DoD issuance process, including guidance regarding service by Service members with a current diagnosis or history of gender dysphoria, to implement this direction. For the purposes of this guidance, these procedures include unscheduled, scheduled, or planned genital reconstruction surgery associated with gender transition, gender affirming surgery, sex reassignment surgery, or new…

A large crowd of protesters

Elizabeth Warren

UNELECTED AUTO-CRAT (with picture of Elon Musk) An inflated balloon of a diapered Donald Trump with a swastika on the front

Went to the protest yesterday, in front of the Department of Treasury. Over a dozen duly elected members of Congress were turned away from entering the building. Most spoke to the crowd, who came to fight Musk's treacherous involvement in eroding Democracy.

Some active duty trans servicemembers are reporting their gender markers in DEERS have been changed, unprompted. Many had their gender markers corrected YEARS ago...over 10 years in some cases. It's not everyone...yet.

SECRETARY OF DEFENSE 1000 DEFENSE PENTAGON WASHINGTON, DC 20301-1000 JAN 31 2025 MEMORANDUM FOR SENIOR PENTAGON LEADERSHIP COMMANDERS OF THE COMBATANT COMMANDS DEFENSE AGENCY AND DOD FIELD ACTIVITY DIRECTORS SUBJECT: Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government Biological sex is an immutable characteristic. It is not fluid, and it cannot transform. Gender ideology denies this fundamental reality, and places women at risk by allowing biological males to gain access to intimate, single-sex spaces. President Trump has given us our marching orders in his Executive Order 14168, "Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government," January 20, 2025. Effective immediately, the Department of Defense will remove all traces of gender ideology. I direct the DoD Components to do the following: Review all programs, contracts, and grants, and take appropriate steps to address any contract requirements that promote or inculcate gender ideology. Review all position descriptions and send a notification to all employees whose position description involves inculcating or promoting gender ideology that they are being placed on paid administrative leave effective immediately as the Agency takes steps to close/end all initiatives, offices, and programs that inculcate or promote gender ideology. Remove all outward facing media (websites, social media accounts, etc.) that inculcate or promote gender ideology. Review email systems, such as Outlook, and turn off features that prompt users for their pronouns. Withdraw any final or pending documents, directives, orders, regulations, materials. forms, communications, statements, and plans that inculcate or promote gender ideology. Cancel any trainings that inculcate or promote gender ideology or have done so in the past. Disband or cancel any employee resource groups or special emphasis programs that inculcate or promo…

Review all forms that require entry of an individual's sex and ensure that all list male or female only, and not gender identity. Remove requests for "gender" and substitute requests for "sex." Ensure that all applicable policies and documents, including forms, use the term "sex" and not "gender." Ensure that intimate spaces for women, girls, or females (or for men, boys, or males) are designated by biological sex and not gender identity. The Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness (OUSD(P&R)) will formally send a task and oversee the implementation of these actions. DoD Components will provide a list of the actions taken in response to this guidance and their plans to ensure ongoing compliance to OUSD(P&R) by February 7, 2025. The rights of the men and women who serve our Nation must be protected as we forge the most lethal force the world has ever known.

Musk saying he’s shutting down illegal money launderers and it’s Lutheran Social Services

Lutheran Social Services is one of the largest employers in South Dakota, operating senior living facilities across the state. Republicans are shutting it down

Perhaps more concerning is Mike Flynn, known foreign asset, having access to this data?

They've accessed classified information at USAID by physically entering the offices. They've removed senior officials.

The coup has started.

It’s official: Elon Musk’s staffers have now illegally obtained classified information from the USAID office.

Here’s a recap of what’s happening:

Trump officials make plans to revoke legal status of migrants welcomed under Biden The DHS proposal would terminate a Biden administration program that allowed more than 530,000 Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans and Venezuelans to fly to the U.S.
