Reality Returns to the DOJ: Sessions Won't Cover Gender Dysphoria as a Civil Right

Immigration is one of my major issues.

But fighting the LGBT Hate machine is very important to me, too.

The Trump Administration looked as though they were going to cave on these quality of life and family issues during his campaign for the Presidency.

To my great relief, Trump and his executive cabinet have the led the fight to restore natural values and our nation's Judeo-Christian ethic.

Check out what AG Jeff Sessions is up to, now!

Reversing Obama policy, Sessions says job protections don't cover transgender people

The civil rights law that prohibits discrimination in the workplace does not apply to transgender employees, Atty. Gen. Jeff Sessions has decided, continuing a shift by the Justice Department against the more LGBTQ-friendly policies championed by the Obama administration.

GOOD.

LGBT is a hateful ideology, riddled with lies and based on anti-scientific bigotry.

All of this is just plain wrong. Men and women are not born gay, and the notion that gender dysphoria should be treated as a civil right. Transgenderism is a mental disorder, and people in bondage to this problem need help, not enabling.

Sessions reversed a 2014 decision by a predecessor, Eric H. Holder Jr., that Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, which prohibits discrimination based on sex, also prohibits employers from taking any actions based on a person’s gender identity.

Sex is not gender identity. Period.

It's called English. Words mean things, and words have meaning, and when lawmakers create legislation, they have to say what they mean and mean what they say, or the legislation has no value.

Although it “provides various protections to transgender individuals,” Title VII does not prohibit discrimination based on someone’s gender identity because the law, written in 1964, does not mention it, Sessions wrote in a memorandum: “ ‘Sex’ is ordinarily defined to mean biologically male or female.”

YES! Exactly.

“The Department of Justice cannot expand the law beyond what Congress has provided,” said Devin O’Malley, a Justice Department spokesman. “Unfortunately, the last administration abandoned that fundamental principle, which necessitated today's action.”

Wow, that's refreshing! For the first time in 8 years, we have a Justice Department which is not interested in departing from the true meaning of legislative language.

How sweet it is. AG Jeff Sessions is restoring language to its original meaning, which means that our liberty has received its proper, prized status once again!

Sessions went on to say that he does not “condone mistreatment on the basis of gender identity” and is not expressing an opinion as to whether Congress should change the law. As a U.S. senator, Sessions voted against a 2009 law that extended hate crime protections to sexual orientation, but he said the department would continue to “vigorously” prosecute such crimes, including ones against transgender Americans.

The point? If you are an American, no one should be hurting you. Being transgender is not a special right, however, which any government is bound to protect or respect.

The Trump administration moved early to start scuttling Obama’s transgender policies. In February, the administration revoked an Obama-era rule instructing local school districts to allow students to choose which bathrooms to use based on their gender identity.

AWESOME!

The memo on Title VII follows another decision this summer to intervene in a discrimination case brought by Donald Zarda, a skydiving instructor in New York who claimed he was fired because he was gay. In a brief filed July 26 — the same day that President Trump announced on Twitter that transgender people would not be allowed to serve in the military — the Justice Department argued that the civil rights law did not apply to cases of discrimination based on sexual orientation.

No, they do not. Homosexuality is a behavior, not an identity. These are behaviors, and the issue of rights--meaning that the state does not interfere in your decision making--the rights metric does not apply.

Also this week, the Justice Department filed court papers defending Trump’s right to exclude transgender people from serving in the military. A suit that seeks to protect transgender soldiers is premature, the Justice Department said, because the Trump administration hasn’t come up with a final policy. The department also argues that Trump has a right to exclude transgender people from serving if he believes they would damage a military unit’s cohesion, drawing comparisons to a list of physical infirmities:

YES! The military is not a social experiment. The military is designed to protect our nation and our liberties, not to promote a social agenda--especially a destructive, perverse one.

“A variety of physical and mental conditions presumptively bar entry into the armed forces, including asthma, history of severe migraines, discrepancies in leg length resulting in a limp, or any curvature of the spine that would prevent one from wearing a uniform properly,” the court papers say.

The latest contraction of Obama’s civil rights policies drew angry denunciations from groups that work for legal protections for gay and transgender people.

TOUGH!

“It’s another example of how, under Jeff Sessions, the Justice Department is no longer in the justice business,” said Sharon McGowan, director of strategy for Lambda Legal, a civil rights group.

LIE!

Senator Sessions is a consummate professional and legal mind. He has the utmost respect for the rights of all Americans--natural rights, not special rights drawn out of thin air by the government.

McGowan, a former attorney in the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division who left after Sessions became attorney general, called the policy reversal “nothing short of heartbreaking.”

Give me a break. Justice is not about feelings, but equity and moral response.

House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi of San Francisco was equally scathing.

As if we care what she thinks.

“From banning transgender service members to dismantling protections for transgender students, this administration has consistently and cruelly put prejudice and bigotry before the civil rights of the American people,” she said in a statement.

Please, Alzheimer's Nancy, we are not interested in your playing the hate card, the discrimination card, etc. We are on to these games, and Americans will no longer be bullied over this pretend rights and social categories. Thanks.

Final Reflection

I am so excited about this. I am so happy that Attorney General Jeff Sessions is taking the lead on protecting the rights of all Americans. He is standing up for our religious liberties. He is rejecting the latest political Emperor with No Clothes, the transgender movement.

We should all thank God every day that Sessions is the chief law enforcement officer in the United States!
