"Taxpayers will now foot the bill for gender reassignment surgery for active military personnel and veterans, with some treatments costing upward of $200,000 under an executive order signed by President Biden," the Washington Examiner reports.

From the The Washington Examiner:

Tucked inside Biden's Jan. 25 transgender order, "Enabling All Qualified Americans to Serve Their Country in Uniform," is a clause that repeals an Obama-era policy that prohibited federally funded reassignment surgery. This was followed up by memos from both Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and Veterans Affairs Secretary Denis McDonough specifically stating that surgery is now an added benefit.

"This revised policy will also ensure all medically-necessary transition related care authorized by law is available to all Service members," Austin wrote.

In a VA email to employees, McDonough echoed: "Perform an assessment of the necessary steps to eliminate the exclusion of 'gender alteration' (gender affirmation surgery) in the medical benefits package."

This together with the military declaring war on Tucker Carlson is destroying the image of America's last public institution that has any popular public support.
