The US judge requires a written withdrawal from Hegsetth due to a trans military policy
The federal judge on Wednesday entered the lawyers from the Ministry of Justice, including retweet of Minister of Defense Pete Hegsetth about disqualifying transgender troops from the “without exemption” service.
The judge of the US District Court Ana Reyes, appointed Biden who earlier stated that the idea of only two sexes was not “biologically correct”, heard arguments about the attempt by Pentagon to ban transgender individuals to serve in the military because the Trans Right groups seek a preliminary ban to completely stop politics.
During the hearing, Reyes pointed to the post on the X in which Hegsetth quoted, “Pentagon says transgender troops were disqualified from the service without exemption.” The post in question is associated with a digital Fox News article in an internal pentagon memorandum.
Memo, discovered in court At the end of last month, they say that members of US services who are transgender or otherwise show their gender dysphoria forbidden from military service unless they receive an exemption.

When Reyes questioned the Government’s lawyers that Hegseth’s repost made everything look Transgender troops would be disqualified From the service, the Lawyer of the Doj -a Jason Mania claimed that Hegsetth uses only “short” for a broader policy.
“Look at the words in politics,” Mania said.
“Not!” said Reyes. “You really think you can do it, say one in public, and then come here to court and tell something else?”
Reyes said then that by Monday he had to bring out a declaration from Hegsetth that not really all the people of a transgender person meant.

“His words are that this covers all transgender people. I will not speculate that he is just messy,” Reyes said of Hegseth.
President Donald Trump He signed an executive order 27 January, which requires the Ministry of Defense to update his guidelines regarding “trans-idnification medical standards for military service” and “abolition of guidelines in accordance with military willingness”.
Government lawyers claimed that Trump and Hegsetth have a wide authority to set up policies for national defense.
Since December, about 4,240 members of the active service, guardians and spare services have been diagnosed with gender dysphoria.
