Trump to ‘sign executive order’ removing transgender troops from US military: Report

As dozens of transgender Americans and parents of trans teens brace themselves for a second Trump administration, President-elect Donald Trump is reportedly preparing to sign an executive order aimed at removing transgender individuals from the U.S. military, according to The Sunday Times.

Sources close to the situation have revealed that the new directive could affect approximately 15,000 transgender service members, forcing them out of their posts. On November 5, the Republican reclaimed the White House, beating VP Kamala Harris, and is expected to take office in January.

However, the Trump team promptly dismissed rumours about the alleged decision to remove transgender individuals from military service, labeling the reports as baseless speculation.
