          Can a court enjoin the military from doing something? As a practical matter? Has anyone tried since Wild Bill Douglas?

          I mean, yes. The military is subject to court review regularly. From Gitmo to DADT and beyond.

          The memo left a huge opening in there for SecDef and SecDHS to say it’s unwarranted. Hopefully they do so and un-do this awful memorandum.

          He's only doing this to reverse all of Obama's decisions.

          Obama didn't bother to change Trans policy in military dur his 2-terms yet he did 6mo's before lvg ofc in an attempt to make Trump look bad.

          It was the right thing in every way to do and he did it. Towards end he worried less about politics and more about what had to be done.

          Totally ignores and disregards advice of his commanders and lengthy study that went into prior determination of impact, fitness.

          Why this change? Why now? There is no basis as the military has not indicated any issues. Shame on DT for going after our service people.

          So, if banning transgender from the military is so egregious, why was nothing done about it by Obama for 8 years?
