President Trump issued an executive order late on Monday night to ban transgender troops from serving openly in the military.
The move was no surprise. Trump spoke frequently on the campaign trail about his plans. "If you want to have a sex change or a social justice seminar, then you can do it somewhere else, but you're not going to do it in the Army, Navy, Coast Guard, Air Force, Space Force, or the United States Marines — sorry," Trump said at an August rally in North Carolina.
The order speaks of transgender identity in sweeping and dismissive terms, labeling it "radical gender ideology."
