‘Unadulterated animus’: Judge spars with DOJ over Trump transgender military ban

  • U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes indicated that she will not rule before early March on blocking the Trump administration's transgender military ban, which plaintiffs argue discriminates against transgender troops.
  • Reyes questioned the Trump administration's reasoning, calling parts of the executive order 'frankly ridiculous' and suggesting it openly expresses 'hostility' toward transgender individuals.
  • The plaintiffs argue that Trump's order violates their rights under the Fifth Amendment, marking them as 'unequal and dispensable' while government attorneys claim the order does not mandate discharge of service members.
  • The Justice Department asserts that the executive order does not violate equal protection because transgender individuals are not 'similarly situated' to biological males or females.
