President Trump to crack down on transgender troops

President Donald Trump is signing an executive order that will restrict transgender troops from serving in the military.

The new order requires Pete Hegseth — the Secretary of Defense — to "end the use of invented and identification-based pronouns, prioritize readiness and lethality" in their medical standards and restrict sleeping, changing and bathing facilities to one’s biological sex.

The order is not immediate – but one in which directs Hegseth to implement the policies. It also revokes Joe Biden's previous order that accommodated ‘gender identity’ in the military, and enhances a directive issued last week by Trump, revoking a Biden order allowing transgender people to serve in the military.

In Trump’s inauguration speech, he recognized that there are only two genders: male and female.
