If your political/social/ideological movement is founded on the shameless emotional blackmail of "Do as we say or your kid will kill themselves!", there isn't much lower they can sink.
Gender Theory built its church on the shifting quicksand of total moral relativity and insists that there's no such thing as truth, facts, reality, biology, and that the mammalian sex binary is actually an oppressive political imposition.
Claiming that there were 15k trannies in the military doesn't even crack their Top Ten of lies.
So true. Just read Chris's original article. I live in a city with a major USAF base and will never forget the number of Veterans I met after Biden's grotesque withdrawal from Afghanistan. The most heartbreaking comment I heard was from a young man that had served two tours and told me "Now I know how the Vietnam Vets felt". But instead of an apology, when Biden finally surfaced, he gave our soldiers a Covid jab mandate.
Interesting that every article "warning" about how devastating eliminating trannies would be to our Military, neglected to mention that every branch of our Armed Forces apart from the Marines was facing a recruitment crisis. The LGBTQ agenda, CRT and DEI were all done to demoralize and divide our troops. Imho, this was orchestrated with nefarious intent.
Thankfully, the tide is turning. There's an increase in new recruitment and many that were driven out are now re-enlisting. We need soldiers that are battle ready. China now has the largest Navy in the world. I'm so thankful to President Trump for having the courage to put the welfare of our troops and country first. Gender Theory like all Cultural Marxism is a nation destroying ideology.
"Blair" is correct. A good friend left (Special Ops) before he had planned (wanted to do 20 years) because of what he saw during the Obama Admin. His team had been sent numerous times to Afghanistan with 2-3 months stateside for training in between, and when pulled out of the Middle East, they were sent to South America to do cartel work. That finalized his decision not to re-up when his time came, and he realized Obama would have a second term.
He's since done contract work for the same groups he'd worked with and has been a bit happier and gotten better pay and benefits. He knows he can leave at any time.
i thought of your article when i saw that 1,000 number. they always play fast and loose with the trans number--as benefits them. "only a few" trans athletes, many thousands of trans troops.
Why are we bandying around round numbers; why isn’t someone manning-up and saying 45, or 105, or 155, based on the number of troopers who have had genital change surgery (and are still “serving”) plus 313, or 432, that have had hormone treatment. Give us the numbers by sex and by service, and maybe break them down by calendar year. I bet most of them are women, and that the marines have the lowest per capita number.
Congratulations, Chris, for being so right, right from the start. The rest of us need to be more grounded, and a lot less gullible.
I’m getting the feeling that I may be wrong about most transitioners being women (trans-men). . . my statement was based on the military being a competitive male environment, like when I was in Vietnam.
The real problem is that we’re all being prodded by the media and politicians into forming opinions, and taking positions, while our access to actual facts is blocked by the selfsame partisan gatekeepers.
In the “most of them are women” part of your comment are you saying that these ‘women’ were men who transitioned to females? Or women transitioning to men?
my question exactly. i'm going to guess that most of them are men pretending to be women.
the girls wanting to be boys thing is very recent and mostly in high school and only after they've been proselytized by pink haired rainbow wrapped "teachers."
vax damage. little girls don't really want to be men. they're terrified of becoming women. 84 shots of aluminum and mercury upside the head thru age 18 will do that to you
Among the younger cohort, girls who want to be boys outnumber the boys who want to be girls by about 3:1. However, the belief system adopted by the majority of those girls is completely incompatible with ever wanting to serve in the military (and I agree with the commenter who said they don’t really want to be men, they are just afraid of being women). So in the military, yes, I’m thinking the males who want to be women are the vast majority. It would be interesting to know the real numbers, though, and also how they’re defining “transgender” for the purpose of removing people from the military.
well historically, women wanting to be "men" was very rare and men wanting to be "women" still rare but less rare. the more girls wanting to be "boys" is a very recent development and it's most certainly driven by social media contagion
Microdosing, maybe, but 'shrooms might be safer and more effective.
Don't let me get started on the fraudulent pseudoscience drug racket and social control mechanism known as "psychiatry"! Polypharmacy is NOT your friend! But I'm pretty sure Steve is my friend....*grin*
Few reporters ever seem to question or examine the "official numbers" their sources give them. Whether it's due to time pressure, editorial pressure, or intellectual laziness or incapacity, or some combination of all of the above, they usually just pass along the "facts" provided to them by "the authorities", along with the entire narrative for which those numbers serve as the tidy bow on the package.
This is true. And the authorities are not some vague, changing group. They're the three mega news aggregators: AP, Reuters, AFP. Each is owned by one of the trillionaire families who like to be known as the elites. The billionaire media moguls are beholden to print whatever the former tell them to.
The "GREG B.'s" - Global Ruling Elites & Globalist Banksters....in other words, the Puppet Masters running the puppet show.... BOTH Biden & Trump are puppets.

Some probably are. But the financial model of the entire system in which they work relies on the generation of sensationalist clickbait that just happens to also reinforce whatever happens to be the message of the day of the "authorities" and "experts." This also reflects the decades-long shift in the practice of journalism as a job that drew from people of a range of backgrounds to a profession in which schools of journalism have merged with departments of "communication", aka public relations.
"Message of the day" would be a more honest slogan for government-controlled media than "All the news that's fit to print" or "democracy dies in darkness," though not as honest as "Brought to you by Pfizer."
Media doesn’t operate by “thinking people” creating copy because for probably a couple+ decades the narratives are dictated and the authors/media personalities simply regurgitate it as required. It’s why all MSM speaks in one voice.
beyond that, a surgically transitioned "person" has to be on hormones for the rest of their lives or else they'll "revert" to what they actually are! imagine carrying a pharmacy of drugs into combat and having to stop mid battle to inject yourself with estrogen to keep your 5 o'clock shadow at bay!!
Classifying them as merely mentally ill is an insult to those who struggle with mental illness. This is a deranged sexual fetish of dangerously insane people.
Chris, great work debunking these ludicrously inflated estimates and dire warnings of degraded military readiness. Such debunking has become a tired refrain as to how the media literally invents information to support their radical narratives - and trades away what minimal credibility they can still hope to claim. They are worse than worthless - they are reckless and destructive.
Aren’t you even surprised that it’s in the hundreds? I can’t believe how these people have popped up in such numbers in the past few years. And if you genuinely believe that you’re “transgender”, why on earth would you choose to join the Military? Isn’t your life difficult enough already?
To think that I once knew some ex-military members who when they came back home they humbly took advantage of the opportunity to go to college on the G.I. Bill and finish their education. They earnestly wanted to make something of themselves.
They're the norm. That have been driven out in large numbers by Biden's Marxist agenda. "Gender Theory" is an offshoot of Mao's "Cultural Theory" which killed millions by baiting people against each other and putting the least qualified in charge.
I completely agree they are the norm. Also agree wholeheartedly with the rest of your comment. It breaks my heart that bottom-feeder Biden hurt the reputation of our military by aiding in this infiltration and trying to weaken our military this way. By not saying no to his wretched bedfellows who seek power through destruction. As you know.
Some of the finest, most humble, most grateful, most selfless, most admirable, most generous, and most courageous people I have ever met have been in the military.
Your comment brought to mind a recent interaction I had at a Target store in NoCA. I was returning an item and the “customer service person” was a He/She. “She” was fairly tall, overweight, with breasts (they were like ‘man boobs’), long hair, a stubble of facial hair, and had very strong body odor.
I tried to make eye contact and have a conversation. ‘She”would not look at me and barely talked to me, except to handle the ‘trans-action’. 😉
It was so obvious to me that this was an overweight guy, who decided to grow his hair long, wear women’s clothing, and call “himself/herself” trans.
Many men that claim to be "trans" have auto gynephilia. They get a sexual thrill from wearing women's clothing and make-up.
Disgraced ex-Colonel Russell Williams was the Commander of Canada's most important Air Force Base. He was convicted of 2 murders and more than 80 rapes of women. He would wear their underwear and take selfies which he hid. It all came out and he's locked up for life. There are many other cases but his was high profile.
The Target he/she employee was devoid of any makeup or any ‘feminine’ characteristics whatsoever. The only thing ‘womanly’ thing he/she had going on was wearing women’s clothing. I suspect he/she suffered from some mental health issues.
It's really the women's clothing that is the fetish. The make-up is optional. Like the Canadian teacher that wore ridiculously huge prosthetic breasts to school and flaunted them in front of his students. But was photographed outside his home dressed like an average guy without his fake breasts or wig.
No, not really "experiment". Try: "5th GenWar", "psy op", "unconventional warfare", etc.,...the intent is to win a future war by destroying the civilian population from within.... And, to increase the money, power & control of the "Billionaire Boys Club".... But you're on the right track!
You were correct the first time! And as an experiment, it looks like it's going to be a failure. Also, I forgot to add "gender Marxism" to my list above!
Why, Chris?! Now that I’ve seen the picture of she/her/it I will never be able to unsee it. Thanks for ruining my dinner right before I head out of the house.
I don’t think that’s necessarily true, for instance many of these people were employed in intelligence? Easy to see how troon ‘ d out compsci graduates would be attracted to that.
The problem is there have already been multiple incidents of "trans" people working in these sectors that have compromised our national security. The 1st "trans" Army officer was arrested for selling classified info to a hostile nation. And the "transtifa" cult that murdered a CBP agent at the Vermont border in January worked in high level computer science jobs. Their "trans" Marxist leader, Jack LaSota aka "Ziz", worked for NASA! They're like a modern-day Manson Family.
They're now charged with murdering at least 6 people, are highly intelligent, extremely violent, from wealthy families and linked to Antifa. The legacy media" reported on this briefly and then spiked the story.
I start reading any MSM story (if I bother reading beyond the headline) with the assumption that it is wrong in some essential way (not the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth—and that God never entered into their consciousness).
I remember your article like it was yesterday. Like you, I was like: 15,000??? Not remotely possible. Not to mention, these people aren’t deployable. So not sure how all these ships and planes would be stranded.
Not only do these people lie nonstop, they lie poorly because they’re dumb and arrogant. Bad combination.
As usual, the quote "you can't hate the legacy media ( MSM ) enough" proves true on a daily basis. As I always say: "the MSM are a bunch of low life, lying, degenerate garbage people" POS ' all.
"They made it up. They sold an invented panic."
If your political/social/ideological movement is founded on the shameless emotional blackmail of "Do as we say or your kid will kill themselves!", there isn't much lower they can sink.
Gender Theory built its church on the shifting quicksand of total moral relativity and insists that there's no such thing as truth, facts, reality, biology, and that the mammalian sex binary is actually an oppressive political imposition.
Claiming that there were 15k trannies in the military doesn't even crack their Top Ten of lies.

The most heartbreaking comment I heard was from a young man that had served two tours and told me "Now I know how the Vietnam Vets felt". But instead of an apology, when Biden finally surfaced, he gave our soldiers a Covid jab mandate.

Thankfully, the tide is turning. There's an increase in new recruitment and many that were driven out are now re-enlisting. We need soldiers that are battle ready. China now has the largest Navy in the world. I'm so thankful to President Trump for having the courage to put the welfare of our troops and country first.

Your comment is spot on. Very well said.
That's very kind. Thank you.
No problem! Thanks for sharing!
"Blair" is correct. A good friend left (Special Ops) before he had planned (wanted to do 20 years) because of what he saw during the Obama Admin.

Congratulations, Chris, for being so right, right from the start. The rest of us need to be more grounded, and a lot less gullible.
Most of them are MEN, who have a very deranged sexual fetish, and should be regarded as clinically insane.
$10.00 says that these discharges will become registered sex offenders.
I think it's called "autogynephilia"....even if I mis-spelled it!
I’m getting the feeling that I may be wrong about most transitioners being women (trans-men). . . my statement was based on the military being a competitive male environment, like when I was in Vietnam.

Completely agree. I’m in the trenches on this phenomenon 🙁
Democrats lie, part 1,647,102,574.
The media lie the number you gave...squared.
Redundant.
All politicians lie, don't be fooled. But yes, the media lies unceasingly.
My math is iffy. ADHD and Lysdexia. It’s a big number, regardless
I heard that Lysdexia is caused by a bad LSD trip?....lol
Maybe LSD would help me. The bupropion certainly isn’t doing much.
Microdosing, maybe, but 'shrooms might be safer and more effective.
Don't let me get started on the fraudulent pseudoscience drug racket and social control mechanism known as "psychiatry"! Polypharmacy is NOT your friend! But I'm pretty sure Steve is my friend....*grin*
I was joking about LSD. I take Luvox which works great for me.
Reporters, so much of the time, are writing about things they have no first-hand knowledge of.
Here, it's not just not having been in the military--it's probably not even knowing anyone who's been in the military.
They don't seem to know *anything*.
Few reporters ever seem to question or examine the "official numbers" their sources give them. Whether it's due to time pressure, editorial pressure, or intellectual laziness or incapacity, or some combination of all of the above, they usually just pass along the "facts" provided to them by "the authorities", along with the entire narrative for which those numbers serve as the tidy bow on the package.

Is it possible that many, or most, "Reporters" are actually failed advertising copywriters?

LOL, even lower than the lowest

Good, because the mentally ill don't need to be in active combat.
beyond that, a surgically transitioned "person" has to be on hormones for the rest of their lives or else they'll "revert" to what they actually are! imagine carrying a pharmacy of drugs into combat and having to stop mid battle to inject yourself with estrogen to keep your 5 o'clock shadow at bay!!
Classifying them as merely mentally ill is an insult to those who struggle with mental illness. This is a deranged sexual fetish of dangerously insane people.
And active combat causes a different kind of mental illness, but that's enough. We don't need any more of them, thank you very much.
Or in any other aspect of our military.
There’s a thousand trannys in the military? I don’t even believe that!
Does that include the fake ones like Corporal Maxwell Klinger?
I saw thar Klinger had been recognized then retired (meme on X)
Exactly.
The idiot who wrote that New Republic story about 15,000 trans soldiers in the US military taking 20 uears to replace tweeted this gem out recently:
"It seems Journalism always loses in America"
https://x.com/hafiz_rashid/status/1918810371659284901

Yes, I had to sit down.
Chris, great work debunking these ludicrously inflated estimates and dire warnings of degraded military readiness.

They were offered free surgery and zero chance of deployment. It was a social program.

zero chance of deployment? what's their purpose then?
Fabulousness. Duh.
It is a social engineering experiment.

Yes! I could have worded that better! Thanks.

Keep up the good work!
Why, Chris?! Now that I’ve seen the picture of she/her/it I will never be able to unsee it. Thanks for ruining my dinner right before I head out of the house.

So true…if a ‘trans’ person wanted a ‘supportive work life environment’ joining the military wouldn’t be that.
But if your purpose is to offend and humiliate people by forcing them to pretend, it'd be perfect.
I start reading any MSM story (if I bother reading beyond the headline) with the assumption that it is wrong in some essential way (not the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth—and that God never entered into their consciousness).

Wondering how much longer a live human will believe anything MSM produces?
Should soon be slightly less than 1000.
As usual, the quote "you can't hate the legacy media ( MSM ) enough" proves true on a daily basis. As I always say: "the MSM are a bunch of low life, lying, degenerate garbage people" POS ' all.
I thought that guy at the walmart checkout, wearing fatigues looked a little stressed out.
DID YOU JUST ASSUME THAT PERSON'S GENDER
Stop yelling, I identify as "gullible," so it's not my fault.
👍😂 Good one!
good point. I'm so "ashamed" now.
Now go say 10 Land Acknowledgements and 10 my pronouns are, and peace be upon you.
They will never apologize or issue a correction or retraction.
They’ve beaten the ability to be surprised out of me…
