Biden Regime To Stick Taxpayers With Bill For Vet Sex Change Surgeries

You can hear the laughter in Beijing.

The Biden regime has once again rewarded the powerful LGBTQ lobby with an announcement that taxpayers will be underwriting sex-change surgery for veterans.

Secretary Of Veteran’s Affairs Denis McDonough appeared at a gay pride event in Orlando over the weekend where he said that the department will make moves to offer what he referred to as “gender confirmation surgery,” a term that likely tested better with focus groups than gender reassignment surgery, to veterans, stating that it was “the right thing to do.”

The announcement comes as the Biden administration continues to shift the focus of the military away from the traditional combat readiness to such things as Critical Race Theory indoctrination, the purge of Trump supporters from the ranks, maternity flight suits, and most importantly of all, promoting transgenderism.

According to McDonough who is another recycled Obama political hack; “We are taking the first necessary steps to expand VA’s care to include gender confirmation surgery, thereby allowing transgender vets to go through the full gender confirmation process with VA at their side.” He added; “That decision will be carried out now over many, many months, but at the end of the day this is in the president’s authority to do. He’s made clear it’s time to do it and that’s precisely what we’ll do.”

The purely political move comes at a time when America’s veterans are struggling with a myriad of issues including physical and psychological trauma from time spent in overseas wars as well as the economic troubles that ravaged America due to Dr. Anthony S. Fauci and blue state Democrat lockdowns.

But since it is a month of honoring the LGBTQ agenda, real problems will have to wait as the Biden regime’s full attention focuses on sucking up to the small but formidable voting bloc which is overrepresented in media and entertainment and fields a well-funded army of activists with a wicked social media game.

The move is the continuation of the Biden regime’s reversal of the policies of former President Donald J. Trump, the Pentagon just reversed the ban on transgenders in the armed forces, in an announcement to commemorate something called the “International Transgender Day Of Visibility,” Raytheon board member turned Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin announced:

“On this International Transgender Day of Visibility, we recognize the great strides our Nation has made raising awareness of the challenges faced by the transgender community,” Austin said in a statement.

He added; “I am pleased to announce we have updated departmental policy governing the open service of transgender individuals in the military. This updated policy reinforces our previous decision to allow for the recruitment, retention, and care of all qualified transgender individuals,” 

“The United States military is the greatest fighting force on the planet because we are composed of an all-volunteer team willing to step up and defend the rights and freedoms of all Americans,” He said, “We will remain the best and most capable team because we avail ourselves of the best possible talent that America has to offer, regardless of gender identity.” Austin continued.

Such misguided policies will only serve to further undermine military morale and readiness and the purging of the ranks continues at a time when China is building a hardened fighting machine that will be focused on winning a future war that the “woke” U.S. military will be unable to fight.

With Biden and the Democrats, everything must be subverted by politics and the pursuit of total and permanent political power by any means necessary; Americans had better start brushing up on their Mandarin.
