WASHINGTON — Last night, President Biden signed the FY25 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) into law, which includes a provision inserted by Speaker Mike Johnson blocking healthcare for the transgender children of military servicemembers. This provision, the first anti-LGBTQ+ federal law enacted since the Defense of Marriage Act in 1996, will rip medically necessary care from the transgender children of thousands of military families – families who make incredible sacrifices in defense of the country each and every day. The last anti-LGBTQ+ federal law that explicitly targeted military servicemembers was Don’t Ask Don’t Tell, which went into effect in 1994.
Biden’s press release:
No service member should have to decide between their family’s health care access and their call to serve our Nation.
Tell you what - go ahead and try to put into words what you think ‘woke politics’ are without being bigoted or breaking comm rules and then I’ll be happy to share why I think you might be more comfortable hanging out at a nazi bar.
The problem is not the core goals of woke, which I understand to be inclusivity and social justice. The problem is perfomative outrage and a relentless search for microaggressions. This will alienate people who might in other circumstances be – if not allies – at least sympathetic to the causes.
Name an example of microaggression/performative outrage displayed by democrats that you think cost them the election.
Instead of moving the goalposts to exactly the place you want after my every message, how about you deliver your reasoning on why I should frequent with nazis like you promised.
