Nancy Pelosi is accusing the GOP of undermining national security — by not using tax funds to pay for sex change operations.
In a statement Thursday, Pelosi said the “disgusting” attempt to restrict funds from being used to provide gender transition treatments is “unprecedented, unacceptable and undermines our national security.”
“Republicans should be ashamed: instead of protecting the men and women who risk their lives to defend our freedoms, they are fighting to rip away the health care of thousands of brave service members,” Pelosi said in a statement. “This cowardly Republican amendment targeting transgender men and women in uniform effectively bans these patriotic Americans from serving their country.”
Missouri GOP Rep. Vicky Hartzler filed an amendment to the House National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) which successfully moved through the Rules Committee.
If passed, the bill would entail that “funds available to the Department of Defense may not be used to provide medical treatment (other than mental health treatment) related to gender transition to a person entitled to medical care.”
Hate to break it to Pelosi, but the most prominent military personnel to get a sex change operation, Chelsea Manning, was a traitor who actually hurt national security. Of course, that won’t change Pelosi’s mind. Ridiculous obsessions like sex change operations will always matter more to the minority leader than national security.

This woman is insane
Ok where do I get in line for my taxpayer funded face lift and tummy tuck? I’ve been too busy raising my family and paying taxes to save enough for this so surely the govt should step in and foot the bill. Is Nancy Pelisi flipping crazy or what???
Pelosi is about as unbalanced and idiotic as most of the other democrates are if they agree to the military paying for sex change surgery.
President Trump is right when he tells America the outrageous amount it is going to cost for all of these change surgeries.
if only she could see what God see’s when she looks in the mirror..A dried out dead black heart who only cares for her own agenda like the rest of her buddies..I pray God removes every last one of them..They don’t deserve the job…
The left has lost its collective brain.
Not that there was much there to begin with.
Jack I dealt with the govt for almost 40 years. When they said they were cutting paper waste they meant 6 new reports were coming.
