        Nice move Sec. Mattis - these soldiers lay their lives down for us - the absolute least we can do is study impact despite President's edict

        Mattis isn't doing this "despite President's edict"; he's doing exactly what Trump ordered. It's right in the article you're responding to:pic.twitter.com/5uIwpbsS93

        Decision to freeze treatment of current transgender military for now seems to be in Trump's notification too (https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2017/08/25/presidential-memorandum-secretary-defense-and-secretary-homeland …):pic.twitter.com/gSg65wV6Od

        You highlight what is caused by twitter edicts (no more trans ppl now) v. Formal memoranda (study how to implmt 1st). Twitr matters.

        But the formal memorandum is also Trump's. So the decision to freeze+study implementation before kicking current transgender military out..

        People seem to be cheering on this decision as proof that Mattis c.s. are ignoring Trump, but I don't see any evidence of that..

        The memo likely had mattis' input after the no- notice tweet that sideswiped DOD in the first place. Way to give his agency room.

        Exactly. I was most worried about those who were already in the military and thus whose lives would most be disrupted/affected.
