An end to 'transgender silliness' at the Pentagon

A national defense analyst is praising President Trump's decision to ban transgendered individuals from serving "in any capacity" in the armed forces – and a constitutional attorney predicts any legal action against it would have a difficult case to prove.

Lt. Col. Robert Maginnis (USA-Ret.) is a senior fellow for national security at the Family Research Council. He says it's about time common sense comes to the Pentagon and stops traveling a path "paved [with] political correctness."

"We had under the Obama administration this silliness with regard to transgenders, which was going to [potentially] cost us billions of dollars ... per year with no return on our investment," he states. "So it is time to get a fresh look at everything that the Obama silliness has brought the Pentagon."

The Pentagon advisor argues that it's going to be difficult for left-wing court challenges.

"There's no law in question here," Maginnis tells OneNewsNow. "Under Article 1, Section 8 of the Constitution, the rules and regulations regarding men and women serving in the armed forces is a requirement of the Congress to make those decisions."

And that means, according to Maginnis, that until Congress enacts a law that disagrees with the policy, the exclusion will continue.
