ABC [Jan 28] -- Good explainer on challenges rooting out 15k trans servicemembers. EO specifies "gender dysphoria," but only a fraction have a formal diagnosis. Many are not out & wd be hard to find. Many serve in war zones. And privacy laws may shield med records. [@rikiwilchins.bsky.social‬]

"It was the abandonment by our friends that stung the most."
I would like to speak up today for the trans community.

You see, I know a bit of what it’s like to be politically scapegoated. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941, suddenly anyone in America who had any amount of Japanese ancestry became suspect. Politicians preyed upon ignorance and fear. /1
