The courts found that this was apparent discrimination by religion.
Well of course that's an entirely different matter, and remember that when the Cops throw you against the wall and lock you up for 72 hours because you appear to be a criminal.
Trump has no Constitutional authority here. He can only use the authority Congress gave him, which is subject to Constitutional restrictions.
Congress delegated authority through 8 U.S. Code 1182 (F).
(f) Suspension of entry or imposition of restrictions by President Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate. 8 U.S. Code 1182 - Inadmissible aliens
Well since Trump is a public figure, and WaPo is a member of the press, to be slander actual malice needs to be proved; oh right never mind, malice would be a slam-dunk.
And popular Democratic opinion is that Wikileaks is a sock-puppet of the Russian Government, so the Seth Rich, affair may yet arise again. Seriously, what are the odds that Putin and the Russians weren't playing both sides?
Considering both the scope of the investigation and that beltway politics is as interconnected as a garter snake mating melee, this could hurt the Democrats as much as the Republicans!
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
The countries listed in the travel ban are essentially non-functional and in anarchy, and the reason those countries are in anarchy is totally about religion. Trying to keep genocidal maniacs out of the country isn't establishment of a religion and it isn't being done by Congress.
Summary is bullshit. Enlistment is not forever. The military can only hold him in service until the end of his enlistment term. Once his enlistment term is over, the military can't do anything to him.
Officers are another story. Being an officer *is* forever, and you can be called back at any time.
Wrong there is always an "At the Government's convenience " clause in your contract; ETS means Estimated Termination of Service, Estimated being the operative word.
remain an active duty? so this he she will get VA! This trader should have life and be happy that they did not get death by firing squad!
"Hi Chelsea, I'm your VA surgeon assigned to preform your gender reassignment surgery; don't worry, even though I've never done this before, I looked at the pictures in my old text books and watched a couple youtube videos. Now if something goes wrong, do you wish to be an organ donor?"
However, with regard to the mess in Syria, Putin is solidly on Assad's side and would undoubtedly pass on any information obtained from the USA to Assad if he thought it would help Assad stay in power. And Assad is a pretty bad dude so, all else being equal, it wouldn't be ideal for the USA to be helping Russia keep Assad in power.
Sadly, most countries in the middle east either have a pretty bad dude running them, are looking for a pretty bad dude to run them or have multiple pretty bad dudes competing for the job. Maybe Trump figures the genocidal maniac we know is better than the genocidal maniac we don't know.
In a way the most shocking thing was the sheer breadth of information that was made available to a young person who was disturbed, alienated and psychologically vulnerable. Granted screening for people like that is never going to be perfect, but it's almost like they weren't even trying.
At the time (if memory serves me correctly) the military was under considerable pressure eliminate the "Don't ask, Don't tell" policy to something more "politically correct" and placing a person as disturbed, alienated and psychologically vulnerable as Manning was, in that position of trust is a very typical example of malicious obedience, Army style. Strictly speaking the lawful orders of Superior Officers were follow, but they were followed in a way to insure failure. Gays and Transgenders are going to have that cloud over their heads for decades now.
Jesus Christ... just how many trans haters are there on this site?
They're not trans-haters, it's just that "trans" is now cool and they are oppositional/defiant. When something else is cool, they hate that instead, maybe fidget spinners will be next.
As a transgender woman who lives in Silicon Valley and earns $55k in IT support, I wish her well.
That's horrific, I can't imagine the challenges of living in Silicon Valley and only earning $55k; being transgender is only a minor inconvenience compared to that!
When you get your security clearance, you are specifically advised that the unauthorized dissemination of classified information or material to unauthorized persons is considered treason, and the contract you sign acknowledges that.
Don't worry s/he gets the breast implants, they're relatively cheap. Getting the penis converted into a vagina, that's expensive. Most resort to prostitution to fund it, but eventually they get busted. Having a penis means you go to a men's jail or prison, having tits in a men's jail or prison is hard on the anal sphincter and it's own punishment.
Helping to expose corruption, deeply unethical behavior and widespread human rights violations.
And that of course is why Juliane Assange so hates Hillary Clinton; we should of course thank Chelsey Manning for being so instrumental in getting Donald Trump elected and saving us from the horrors of another Clinton Presidency.
Worse than that, at least the cancellations will undoubtedly be replacement for old, inefficient highly polluting coal plant by cleaner, more efficient plants.
Well, per capita, the US emits far far more than the rest of the world. But the U.S. is a small fraction of the world.
The US also feeds more of the world per capita, Protects more of the World's people from aggression per capita and provides more of the World's people with heavily subsidized medicine per capita, than any other country in the world. If some other country wants to take a turn being the lightning rod for the World's anger, then have at it.

The little island in front of Florida, called Cuba, provides more medical aid to the world than all G8 nations together.
I suppose you think those drugs would even exist if it weren't for the the American market providing an incentive to fund the R and D expenses.

There are a few things that just plain will not run on Linux, that's why you have windows running in a VM!
Then Paul Ryan is president Now rather than later; that'll make the progs happy.

The National Enquirer said John Edwards had a love child. Were they correct?
Yes, an the love child speaks to the dead too!

Oaths supersede signed agreements.
Do you mean the oath to protect and defend the constitution, obey the law and to follow the legal orders of superior officers?

At least Pence isn't incompetent. Trump has no fucking idea what he's doing. It's like putting a chimp behind the wheel of a jumbo jet.
Pence Knows how to fly the Jumbo Jet, but you wouldn't like where he flies it.
He looks like he's one KFC Gravy Bowl away from a grabber.
Damn you, I almost lost my lunch, KFC Gravy is the second most disgusting food known to man, KFC mashed potatoes being the first.
Worse than that, at least the cancellations will undoubtedly be replacement for old, inefficient highly polluting coal plant by cleaner, more efficient plants.
