Trump to Expel Transgender Troops from Military

President-elect Donald Trump plans to issue an executive order on his first day in office to ban transgender individuals from serving in the military, potentially leading to the discharge of 15,000 active service members. Trump has nominated Pete Hegseth to lead the Department of Defense, who supports the move, citing complications with integrating transgender people into the military. This decision follows Trump's previous attempt in 2017 to ban transgender service members, which was met with controversy and opposition.
