So is Adderall still a permanently disqualifying factor for military service? I thought I heard about that being changed at some point, but I can't recall from where.

I don't understand the GOP's want of putting less bodies in front of them to get shot at in the forever war. Thank you for your service.

The President and his staff knows this because they know where Obama's positions were not. By subtracting where their policy's are from where Obama's were not, or where Obama was from where they are(whichever is greater), it obtains a press release, or tweet. The President uses tweets to generate commands to drive the GOP from a policy position where it is to a policy position where it isn't, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is.

Well, this guy isn't guilty or anything.quote:The top information technology aide to Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., was arrested Monday attempting to board a flight to Pakistan after wiring $283,000 from the Congressional Federal Credit Union to that country. The whole story is bonkers

Keeping the military stocked with nothing but conservative MAGA warriors means there's less resistance from it when they go on their next quixotic endeavor.

Even if every single transgender service member was given top of the line reassignment surgery and the best hormone therapy available, and hell maybe even a free car while we're at it, what minuscule percentage of the total DOD budget would that comprise?

The opponents in Congress (who failed, which is why Trump did this) are using totally bogus numbers quote:To justify that blatantly discriminatory act, Hartzler has seemingly invented the statistic that trans military service will cost the military $1.35 billion over the first ten years. Her office has refused to respond to multiple ThinkProgress requests for the source of that figure, which is 16 times higher than the highest estimates the RAND Corporation calculated. The Family Research Council, an anti-LGBTQ hate group, has since estimated figures even higher.

Whenever Donnie complains about something costing too much somebody should suggest he pay gor it out of his own pocket. I mean he is a "billionaire" and continues to insist that he's putting the country first. Wouldn't want to lool like a grifter y'know.

What's really weird is that I haven't seen a single Republican back up Trump's decision on this. I've seen statements from McCain, Hatch, and Ernst and they're all saying "everyone who is able bodied should be allowed to serve". I would've expected some support coming from them and instead he's getting absolutely zero, even from the hardcore conservative Senators. I highly doubt that leads to anything concrete past mythical concern, but it's still really odd. I'm wondering if this will get covered in the yearly National Defense Authorization Act debate currently ongoing. Edit: Senator Combover King Shelby too. facialimpediment fucked around with this message at 18:06 on Jul 26, 2017 |

The transgender stuff is meat thrown to the faithful to make them forget that their health care is about to get much worse. Remember, they dont care if their life sucks as long as someone elses is made worse.
