Biden Signs Executive Order to Make Transgender Surgery Free for Military on Taxpayer Dime

Imagine the hordes who will enlist only for the free surgery!

The Gateway Pundit


"Joe Biden signed an executive order this week that makes transgender surgery free for the military. From now on US taxpayers will pay for the medical procedures and surgery for transgender candidates.

"The operation is not cheap and can add up to $200,000 per patient. No doubt, this will drive more trans men and women into the military. It’s not clear how this helps the military. But, whatever.

"The Washington Examiner reported:

Taxpayers will now foot the bill for gender reassignment surgery for active military personnel and veterans, with some treatments costing upward of $200,000 under an executive order signed by President Biden.

Tucked inside Biden’s Jan. 25 transgender order, “Enabling All Qualified Americans to Serve Their Country in Uniform,” is a clause that repeals an Obama-era policy that prohibited federally funded reassignment surgery. This was followed up by memos from both Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and Veterans Affairs Secretary Denis McDonough specifically stating that surgery is now an added benefit.

“This revised policy will also ensure all medically-necessary transition related care authorized by law is available to all Service members,” Austin wrote." . . .

Lt. Gen. Thomas Spoehr, who commanded U.S. Army forces in Iraq and now directs the Heritage Center for National Defense, says Biden’s order currently reads like anyone in a war zone can suddenly take leave to undergo reassignment surgery.

 “This is radical and new territory for a presidential administration to force taxpayers to fund sexual reassignment surgeries for those in the military,” Rep. Jim Banks told the Washington Examiner.

As I have said often, with Democrats we wake up every day wondering what our government will do to this nation and its people. TD

Mississippi Governor Bans Transgenders From Participating In Female Sports

 Anthony T   "Not everyone is bowing down to the Biden regime.

"The Governor of Mississippi has just banned transgender athletes from competing in female sports.

"Gov. Tate Reeves’s new ban defies Biden’s Executive Order that called on schools to allow students to participate in athletics under their chosen gender identity.

"Hats off to Gov. Reeves for standing up for woman’s rights!" .  . .

. . . "Mississippi Republicans have said the law, which will affect state schools and universities, is a necessary response to President Biden’s day-one executive order calling on schools across the country to allow students to participate in sports under their chosen gender identity.

“ 'This important piece of legislation will ensure that young girls in Mississippi have a fair, level playing field in public school sports,” Reeves said Thursday." . . .

Biden: Submit And I May Let You Celebrate The Fourth Of July

 Def-Con News  "Fascism is fully ascendant.

"Good old Joe from Scranton laid down the law on Thursday, calling for complete trust in Dr. Fauci and offering up a carrot if Americans obey and line up by the millions to get the jab.

"In a prime time speech delivered from the White House that was miraculous in that Biden was able to get through an entire 22 minutes without any of the brain farts that have plagued him in his later years, the nation’s 46th POTUS teased allowing Americans to get some of their stolen rights back if they just come together in “unity,” an Orwellian term that really means submission to the unholy alliance between Davos globalists and the seat of the one-party government in heavily militarized Washington.

"In assuming the job from former President Donald J. Trump as the nation’s top vaccine pimp, Biden announced that all Americans will have access to the experimental shots that were rushed into distribution without the normal testing phase and that it is their patriotic duty to not only get the chemicals into their own arms but to work to coerce family, friends, co-workers and neighbors to do likewise.

"The reward for such blind obedience will be that Biden will allow Americans to gather with limitations on the Fourth Of July, a perverse revisionist twisting of history that is right up there with the tearing down of statues and the 1619 project’s rebooted version of the nation’s founding that America’s origin was based on slavery and white supremacy.

"According to Biden:

On Biden's speech Thursday night


On Thursday night, a masked Biden tottered down a long, empty hall to a podium.  He then gave the most bizarre presidential address in American history. After a grim recital of "facts" about the last year, Biden emphasized multiple times that Americans had better take the vaccine — and be grateful to him for his amazing ability to get the vaccine to Americans. He also insisted that, vaccines or not, the government's in control and can lock all of us up all over again.
Biden's scary, boring, and bizarre address to the nation  . . . "4. Biden dragged in, almost randomly, the fact that there is a rash of attacks on Asians of late: "Vicious hate crimes against Asian-Americans who have been attacked, harassed, blamed, and scapegoated."

. . . "What he was implying is that people have been so maddened by Trump (whose name Biden never once mentioned) saying the Wuhan virus originated in China that it drove maddened white supremacists to attack Asians.  As best as I can tell, the attacks against Asians come almost entirely from the Black community — and, more than that, from a segment of the Black community that is not in sympathy with Trump and is therefore unlikely to be influenced by him.  What nobody on the left admits is that Blacks have long been hostile to Asians." . . .Andrea Widburg

UK Mail: 'The biggest scam is Biden taking credit for the vaccine': President is slammed for ignoring Trump's success with Operation Warp Speed and claiming HE is responsible for speeding up the rollout . . . "The Trump Administration established Operation Warp Speed last April to facilitate and accelerate the development, manufacturing, and distribution of COVID vaccines.

"The public-private partnership has been lauded by people on both sides of the aisle.  In recent days, even mainstream media outlets such as ABC and The New York Times have credited Trump with contributing the success of the vaccines. Both publications have criticized Biden for failing to truthfully acknowledge that fact." . . . Stephen Colbert attacked Trump for claiming credit for the vaccine  

For Biden, Trump Has Become 'He Who Must Not Be Named'

Joe Biden Is Still Lying About COVID-19 Vaccine Distribution. Here Are the Facts.  . . ."“Two months ago this country didn’t have nearly enough vaccine supply to vaccinate all or anywhere near all of the American public, but soon we will.”

"This is completely false.

"In July 2020, the Trump administration ordered 100 million doses of the vaccine under development by Pfizer, Inc. upon its being authorized. The agreement with Pfizer would allow the government to purchase an additional 500 million doses. In August, the Trump administration ordered 100 million doses of the vaccine under development by Moderna, Inc. upon its authorization."  , , ,

. . . "Biden’s speech Thursday evening was simply his latest and most daring attempt to take credit for COVID-19 vaccine development and distribution. It is insulting to the thousands of people who worked tirelessly under Operation Warp Speed to deliver a vaccine in historic record-breaking time, and a shameful attempt of rewriting history in the hopes that the Trump administration gets none of the credit."  PANTS ON FIRE: Joe Biden Claims Trump ‘Failed to Order Enough’ COVID VaccinesKamala Harris: Biden Admin ‘Started From Scratch’ on Vaccine Distribution. Fauci Begs to Differ

Tucker asks what we should all ask:  "Joe Biden does not dictate to me what I can or can’t do. He doesn’t get to tell me how large my group of friends I have over for a BBQ can be. He also doesn’t even get to tell me to get a vaccine, though I have no personal qualms with doing so. Biden is a nobody, a figurehead holding an office that simply doesn’t grant him the power to make the threats he made last night. And for that, he can go jump in a lake."

In First Major Speech, Biden Lectures Americans About What They 'Can and Cannot Do'  . . . " "If we do our part. If we do this together, by July the 4th, there's a good chance you, your families and friends, will be able to get together in your backyard, or your neighborhood and have a cookout or a barbecue and celebrate Independence Day. That doesn't mean large events, with lots of people together, but it does mean small groups will be able to get together.' " 

  . . . "Further, Biden took full credit for the vaccination of Americans, despite the vaccination program being developed under President Donald Trump through Operation Warp Speed. Biden claimed his goal of 100 million vaccinations in his first 100 days was ambitious, but the Trump administration was on track for that number when he took office." . . .

My Democrat Friends are Getting Very Embarrassed

 

My friends are belatedly realizing that the turmoil was not created by Donald Trump.  It was manufactured by the Democrats, simply to win an election.  The Democrats embraced socialists and anarchists (even though they never play well together) to create the turmoil, and now they can’t turn it off. . . .

American Thinker   "Now that the implications of the Harris/Biden administration are setting in, my Democrat friends (yes, I do have a few) are becoming very embarrassed.  They bought into the propaganda that all the turmoil in Washington was created by the erratic and immoral behavior of Donald Trump.  Their vote for Harris/Biden was a vote to return to normal.  They didn’t realize that the Democrats weren’t offering a return to normal, they were offering the establishment of a “new normal.”

"The “new normal” includes restricted energy exploration and cancellation of the Keystone XL pipeline.  This has caused a loss of well-paying union jobs, damaged relations with Canada, and triggered skyrocketing gasoline prices.  It also threatens to return us to dependence on the most unstable region in the world.  To those who would like us to leave the Middle East to resolve its own problems -- we can’t now.

"We’ve implemented more “humane” immigration policies, creating a flood of illegal immigrants across the border -- wearing “Biden” t-shirts.  Our humane policy has given us men, women, and children sacrificing their lives pursuing the dream promised them by the Democrats.  Thankfully, we’re no longer keeping illegal immigrant children in cages.  Now we’re keeping them in Conex boxes.  I guess we can feel good about that.

"Those arriving illegal immigrants are putting more pressure on a struggling job market, decimated by COVID lockdowns.  Rather than help struggling small businesses, the Democrats seek to impose more economic distress with a $15-per-hour minimum wage.  As small businesses close their doors, the dreams of their owners are dashed, and entry level job opportunities disappear forever." . . .

On ‘People of Color’ and ‘Systemic Racism’ — And Why I Am Sick of Hearing It

 


Dov Fischer  . . . "So I am sick of hearing about diversity and sensitivity. I am sick of it. You know how I succeeded in my life? I did not whine about anti-Semitism. I did not tell all my classmates and professors and my readers that “you all owe me” for all the times I was called a “Kike” and a “Jew bastard” and a “Christ killer.” That you owe me reparations and you owe me compensation for the reduced grades I suffered for classes and tests missed on Sh’mini Atzeret and Simchat Torah. Rather, ya wanna know how I succeeded? I’ll tell you:

"Like my mom and dad, both of blessed memory, and like all other members of my family, and like all my Orthodox Jewish friends, I never relied on a favor or compensatory advantage from government or institutions. I just knew I had to work harder and do better than others, such that “they” would not be able to keep me out even if “they” wanted. I had to get SAT scores in the top 10th percentile in the country to be sure I would get into Columbia. So I did. To get into the law school of my choice, I had to get LSAT scores that blew the ceiling off, so I scored in the 99th percentile. No one was gonna give me Affirmative Anything. To get a judicial clerkship, I figured I would have to get onto law review, so I worked even harder than that and got named Chief Articles Editor of law review. (I confidentially was told later by two people on the outgoing law review editorial board, who had been at the vote where I was selected for that honor, that I actually had been one of the two finalists for Editor-in-Chief of law review, but that I had lost the vote because four people openly said they could not vote for an Orthodox Jew since he does not work on Saturday.) To get into a top 20 law firm, I needed a resumé that showed law review and federal judicial clerkship. To write for The American Spectator, I had to have writing skills that would impress Melissa Mackenzie and Wlady Pleszczynski and just enough snark to impress Bob Tyrrell. To be a law school professor, I had to have pedagogical skills that rapidly would make me too good not to hire and — in this era of cancel culture — have the self-discipline in the classroom to hide my beliefs from the rabidly leftist faculty members always on the prowl, looking for conservative professors and G-d-fearing adjuncts to extirpate.

"So I am sick of it." . . .  Mr Fischer's full article here

World War 3: the warriors against the woke; what can go wrong (Updated)

UPDATE: Unprofessional Attack on Tucker Carlson, Proving How Politicized They've Become   . . . " He spoke about how, while China is building up their Navy to be reportedly bigger than ours, Joe Biden’s focus was…maternity flight suits and updating requirements for hair styles.

"Now members of the DOD responded, not to the actual question posed here – whether the DOD really planned on having women that pregnant to require maternity flight suits actually involved in battles – but accusing Tucker of being anti-women."

"Now I suggested when I wrote about this story that perhaps they were trying to adjust flight suits for people that weren’t actually going into combat, who perhaps were performing tasks on the ground. But then listen to their response, they don’t even address the question raised about a heavily pregnant woman fighting, which was the question, they immediately claim the remarks are sexist and claimed he was mocking women in the military." . . .

The build-up begins: Biden plans a Kamala Harris road show  "Doddery old Joe Biden isn't even trying to hide it anymore. His gaffes and garble are soaring to orbit. The faraway look in his eyes is growing dimmer. The public is noticing.

"He called himself a transition president. He presumably joked that he'd resign if he ever disagreed with Harris. But much sooner than anyone thought, a Hollywood style starlet build-up for Vice President Kamala Harris is beginning as if to prepare the public for his replacement.

"Start with this International Women's Day tweet from someone at the controls of the Twitter account of senile old Joe:

Those are our national leaders we depend upon to lead America through this coming international climate: 

As China Declares War with US Inevitable, Army General Highlights Need for Fighting Vehicles  "China has 7,000 tanks and 3,000 infantry fighting vehicles, "so 10,000 vehicles that will be decisive if we are not there," Maj. Gen. Richard Coffman, director of the Army's Next Generation Combat Vehicle Cross Functional Team, told an audience at a Center for Strategic & International Studies event.

"In order to be decisive, we have to be there with armor to prevent the Chinese from getting into a position of relative advantage," he added." . . .

‘China’s military must spend more’ to meet US war threat


"General Xu Qiliang, second in command of the armed forces  after President Xi Jinping, said the spending was necessary to prepare the country for the “Thucydides trap”, the idea that conflict is inevitable when one power rises to displace a great one." . . .

WOKENESS IS DESTROYING THE MILITARY  ". . . But we cannot survive the Woke Feminists declaring that we need more women on the front lines of the military Because Equality™️. We cannot survive the military putting Wokeness ahead of common sense and putting trannies on the front lines.

We also cannot survive the Woke Mobs defunding the police because in their insane delusional brains, the police exist exclusively to kill innocent black people, and provide no benefit to society at all.

"One of the most underrated stories of the past few years is the disgraceful Wokeness of many top military brass. Think of traitors like Lt. Col. Vindman, whose raging Trump Derangement Syndrome drove him to betray his country. Even Mattis, who most people (including myself) thought was a badass, is actually a total SJW:


The Chinese have to have drawn the proper conclusions from watching America's youth take their hatred for our nation into the streets; seeing them burn, kill, and assault their fellow American citizens. China has to have realized they have in this nation an entire generation comprising a "Fifth Column" willing to come to their aid in a conflict. Add to all this is a silly but insidious press and media, rotting our very culture and families. The Tunnel Dweller



The Race Racket

. . . "The race racket has never been more aggressive, stoking up resentments and division daily in pursuit of this or that power grab. “Critical race theory” pervades America’s schools, indoctrinating children in the demands of this racket.It is no wonder that race relations get worse, not better, under the strictures of liberalism. Its goal is not racial harmony or moral betterment but domination and power." ...

Lemon
 The Race Racket "Liberalism is an ideology that obsesses over past evils while overlooking present evils. As their own institutions collapse, liberals preoccupy themselves with the condition of ancient ones. Meghan Markle’s interview with Oprah Winfrey has given the woke iconoclasts a new target: the British monarchy. CNN’s Don Lemon seized on her accusations,saying that the “whole institution is built on a racist structure” and no one should be surprised by her charges given that “is what the monarchy is based on — heredity, hierarchy, a caste system, bloodlines.”

"According to liberals, racism is not a human problem but a uniquely white problem. Never mind that slavery was a practice throughout the white and non-white world for centuries, as the black economist Thomas Sowell points out:

Of all the tragic facts about the history of slavery, the most astonishing to an American today is that, although slavery was a worldwide institution for thousands of years, nowhere in the world was slavery a controversial issue prior to the 18th century. People of every race and color were enslaved — and enslaved others. White people were still being bought and sold as slaves in the Ottoman Empire, decades after American blacks were freed.

 Everyone hated the idea of being a slave but few had any qualms about enslaving


others. Slavery was just not an issue, not even among intellectuals, much less among political leaders, until the 18th century — and then it was an issue only in Western civilization. Among those who turned against slavery in the 18th century were George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Patrick Henry and other American leaders. You could research all of the 18th century Africa or Asia or the Middle East without finding any comparable rejection of slavery there. But who is singled out for scathing criticism today? American leaders of the 18th century. . . .

. . .  The 19th-century black educator Booker T. Washington once warned that campaigns against racism can turn into a racket: 

There is another class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs — partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays…I am afraid that there is a certain class of race-problem solvers who don’t want the patient to get well, because as long as the disease holds out they have not only an easy means of making a living, but also an easy medium through which to make themselves prominent before the public.

Rule by Left-Wing Lunatics

"A third Proud Boy was headed to trial along with Kinsman and Hare — until the prosecution noticed he was East Indian and his presence would have hurt the narrative that Proud Boys are “white supremacists.' ”
lawenforcementtoday

  Ann Coulter  "A governing principle of the Democratic Party is to ask, “Who is in the dock?” before deciding whether to enforce the law.

"As we have seen throughout the last year of antifa/BLM riots, in blue states, it’s now legal to commit arson, attempted murder, assault on a law enforcement officer and destruction of property — provided the perp is antifa or antifa-friendly. Andy Ngo’s smash bestseller “Unmasked” gives chapter and verse on antifa’s shocking violence untouched by criminal penalty.

"On the other hand, if you’re a conservative, don’t commit a misdemeanor in a blue state. Proud Boys, Capitol Hill protesters, police and other presumed Trump supporters are getting more prison time than actual murderers for minor infractions. Even a couple of personal injury lawyers (liberals) are being criminally prosecuted in St. Louis for brandishing guns at violent looters coming toward their home. The rioters, you see, were BLM protesters.

"In all these cases, local Democratic officials gleefully announce that they are locking up “white supremacists.”

"Prepare yourself for a lot of witch-trial hysteria in the upcoming trials of Derek Chauvin in Minneapolis and the Capitol Hill trespassers in Washington, D.C. We’ve already seen it with the Proud Boys in New York City.

"In a nation of laws, a crime is a crime, and it shouldn’t matter whether it’s committed by Mother Teresa or Charles Manson, but, as long as they brought it up, OF COURSE THE PROUD BOYS AREN’T “WHITE SUPREMACISTS”!

"The organization is a tongue-in-cheek men’s group, promoting masculinity and Western civilization in humorous ways. Most of what they tell members is healthy: Get out of your apartment, work out, get a girlfriend and don’t masturbate. Further aside that it annoys me to have to make: There are African Americans, American Indians, immigrants and loads of Mexicans in the Proud Boys. Pretty crappy membership drive for a “hate group.' ” . . .

. . . The police did manage to arrest three antifa thugs who followed one speech attendee leaving the event, punched him and stole his backpack. But it turns out that’s also legal in New York. The antifa were arrested for the violent attack … then immediately released with no charges. . . .

"Biden is a man in decline; America is a nation in decline"

Intellectual Conservative

. . . "America has been teetering on the edge of the precipice for decades. But the combination of the China virus, the race riots, and the economic shutdowns—all perfectly planned and executed by the Communist China-American Left international conspiracy—finally pushed America over that edge. The country is now totally in freefall and upside down. Bad is good, and good is bad. Wrong is right, and right is wrong.

"So, congratulations America! You are about to get what you want and what you fully deserve—the destruction of all the freedoms and liberties that used to make America a special place. America will soon be just another socialist/communist/fascist wasteland. Reagan said that freedom is always just one generation away from extinction. We are that generation." . . .

Jen Psaki: queen of the dance

https://www.terrellaftermath.com/

Watch her dazzle the press with her footwork!

Jen Psaki slammed for 'homophobic' tweet about Sen. Lindsey Graham  "
Biden press secretary called Graham '#LadyG' "
. . . " 'If you want to know what a media double standard looks like, Jen Psaki, as a CNN employee, can tweet this, get hired to be a White House Press Secretary, and not even feel compelled to delete it after it was unsurfaced a few days ago. She doesn’t care. She’s on the same team," Fourth Watch editor Steve Krakauer wrote." . . .

Psaki's Revelation as to Who Actually Wrote Biden Proclamation Speaks Volumes ..."It’s a punt with an homage to diversity, not unlike her “we appointed a woman” response to questions that she’s pulled out to multiple questions.

"But there’s a bigger problem in what she said. Notice how she tried to deflect any criticism of the proclamation leaving out Seuss by saying it was written by the Department of Education. But it was written in the first person and signed by Joseph R. Biden. So is she saying he’s not the one writing official proclamations with his name on them, written in the first person? Really. Tell us more about this. Now, yes, we get that he has speechwriters and such. But isn’t he responsible for things which he, in fact, signs? Or are you saying he has no idea/connection to the things he’s issuing or that have his name on them? Because that’s surely what she was implying in her response. That would be a big problem. Is that what you’re really saying, Jen Psaki? And do reporters really find that a satisfactory answer to that question?"

Jen Psaki Thinks You're a Moron, and She's Making It Clear We Don't Really Have a President  . . . "When asked about why illegal immigrants are flooding the border, Psaki attempted to blame (checks notes)…hurricanes?...

"It’s not their program? Is Joe Biden president or is he not? It is simply not acceptable for Psaki to blow this question off when it is her boss’s job to run these organizations and provide these answers. The Department of Homeland Security is not its own branch of government, and the lack of communication with the White House is a stunning indictment of how worthless the current officeholder is.

"Overall, Psaki is making it clear we don’t really have a president. We have a doddering old man who doesn’t know where he’s at half the time. That’s about the extent of Biden’s capabilities these days. Deflections to other agencies is not leading. It’s being a coward...."
