Austin vows to maintain military’s access to abortion despite end of Roe
Hyde Amendment? No. Killing babies is more important than following federal law. Signal our virtue, danger close!
From Stars and Stripes;
The Defense Department will ensure that service members, their families and civilian employees have access to reproductive health care in the wake of a Supreme Court decision Friday to end the constitutional protection for abortion, the Pentagon said.
“The Department is examining this decision closely and evaluating our policies to ensure we continue to provide seamless access to reproductive health care as permitted by federal law,” Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said in a statement Friday.
“I am committed to taking care of our people and ensuring the readiness and resilience of our Force,” Austin said.
For those who have long sought Roe’s reversal, ending abortion takes priority over other considerations.
“Today the Supreme Court, in line with modern science and overwhelming public consensus, recognized the truth in every mother’s heart and that pro-life advocates have argued all along: unborn children are human beings, deserving of protection,” Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America, said in a news release Friday.
But another observer says the decision will weaken the nation’s security.
“By overturning Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court has not only taken a wrecking ball to reproductive rights – it has taken a wrecking ball to military readiness,” Janessa Goldbeck, a Marine Corps veteran and veterans’ advocate, said in a news release Friday.
“America will be less secure as a result,” she said.
Our national security is dependent on…*shuffles deck*…abortion! Perhaps killing your own fetus makes it easier to take out a “bunch of cells” in an enemy uniform.

There is stupid, there is damned stupid, and there is Lloyd Austin. Does he wear kneepads when he’s kissing up to the liberals?
With all due respect, GB, he does what his authoritarian masters at Raytheon tell him to do.
Without a steady supply of baby parts, the NIH/FDA/WHO’s research dries up and Piglosi doesn’t get her wrinkle cream.
I understand. He has the spinal fortitude of a grub.
Lloyd Austin is another example of what someone looks like after they’ve sold their Soul to politics.
API:
Yep.
We went to school with him. We served with him. We jumped with him…
He is NOT the same Austin we knew…
🤔
A Picture Paints A Thousand Words…
Oh, boy, therapist job security…
Asked my dad around 9 if I was adopted, he just said, “Not yet…”
I endured, theme song is “Still alive and well”.
A couple of years ago, my older sister was giving me shit over something, really yanking my chain. I said “Damn I hope I’m adopted and you’re really not my sister”. She says “My bedroom was right nest to mom and dad’s, I guarantee you are not adopted”.
that is rich, and sounds like a big sister’s remark.
Looking forward to next Mother’s Day. Never saw an 8 year old write “Fuck You, Mom!” on a Mother’s Day card.
I got a better one for you.
*Vomit warning*
Mason..
Well, you DID give us a WARNING ORDER…
Oh…My…Stars…..🤮😵💫😳😱😖
As far as I see it, the SCOTUS Decision merely leave it up to each State as to what their stance on abortion will be, and as for the moonbats’ response to it, I see it as evidence of what easily stirred-up useful idiots they are at the beck and call of their herders and handlers.
Yup. Back to the states. It’s a huge win for democracy actually.
It’s really funny how all the biggest
riotsprotests were in solidly blue states. Hell, they’re wreaking havoc in California, which is an abortion “sanctuary” state according to their governor.Been wondering about that, too. Much like every time a criminal is shot while resisting arrest, they trash the city, which has been ruled by Democrats for at least fifty years. There may be a correlation there, but they can’t connect the dots.
There’s been low rumblings of Federal Lands being made Disunioned for political expedience, occupied by foul clinics in continuance of this barbaric ritual.
I guess They’d abuse the privilege of administration in contravention of law and will, but will cry salty tears when blockaded by ‘declared’-recalcitrant States.
The Constitution: You honor all, or you none.
“Let them eat soy.”
He’s a bad dude.
Runs a group of bad boys (and one bad woman).
Ain’t none of the defense departments business.
The same liberal moonbats who screech to save the lives of condemned murderers on Death Row scream in favor of the wanton killing of unborn children, further living proof that liberalism is a mental disorder!
The only policy that the pentagon needs to review regarding abortion is the leave/pass policy. If a pregnant female servicemember (OMG that’s so unwoke to say it like that) desires to obtain an abortion (at her own expense) and has to travel to do so, she must be on leave or pass. Other than that, the 5-sided-puzzle-palace needs to be quiet.
Just wait until the VA sticks it’s nose into this.
Join the military to ensure access to killing the unborn.
It’s a “earned” benefit.
Doesn’t the “mass of tissue” have to be service-connected then? (So, how did the service do this to do?)
“So, how did the service do this to do?”
I think many of us have been screwed by the service at one time or another
So is Roe v Wade going to be criteria for the next round of BRAC?
Boom!
Fort Benning transitioned-erized to Camp Margaret Sanger? I’d love to see Hood scattered to the four winds.
A 2 minute video well worth watching:

You mean Fort [the] Hood, Texas?
Ft Hood– finally, a more wretched hive of scum and villainy than Mos Eisely!
Austin is a clown.
Another Win…This time, the First Amendment:

CNN’s hhhhhot take. I’m starting to think they don’t think.
They continue proving themselves to be little more than a propaganda outlet for the DNC.
From what I have seen, that is what they have been for over twenty years. Same with most of the MSM. MSDNC is Progda for the D-rat party. That is where ex-D-rat apparatchiks go when they leave their gov’t PR jobs.
Just like they think the ruling last week in NYSPRA v Bruen somehow opens the floodgates to gun slaughter when it was in fact a vindication for due process and individual liberty.
Tell that to them and the racists at LA “Larry Elder is the Black face of white supremacy” Times.

We The People…
How in the fuck is that a 6-3 decision? Never should have been a question that a person can pray while at work for a moment. Those three would outlaw someone offering thanks before eating their lunch.
That’s not separation of church and state, it’s elimination of church from society.
Mason commented:
“it’s elimination of church from society.”
It’s already starting….😣
That is the goal of this God/religion hating Marxists.
The solution is intuitively obvious to even the most casual of observers. Just provide them birth control, preventing any need for an abortion. It would save money, and increase combat readiness as those who would have an abortion would not need the “procedure”, what with time off for surgery and to resolve any complications. And those doctors who would have performed the abortion could focus on attending to service members with service related injuries.
Good point. How much maternity leave are they allowed, and how does that affect their unit’s ability to perform the mission? Intentionally becoming undeployable. WACs who got pregnant were discharged (I guess THAT dates me!).
Train them all like Paratroopers: “Knees and feet together”
Bravo, Graybeard.
BRAVO…
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
It’s already provided. Just about any female contraception is available and there’s a bowl of condoms at every clinic.
I once knew a disgruntled medic who claimed he’d get bored at the desk and stick a needle through every condom in the bowl.
He was a bit of an asshole. Naturally, we got on well.
That’s exactly why I always bought my own condoms.
One morning at PT Formation on Benning, one of the Guys in my Platoon showed up with a “Somebody please kill me!” look on his face. When someone asked what was wrong, his reply was “Wife’s pregnant again, the fuckin’ condom broke!”.
My sisters are all about 12-18 months apart in age. Then, 11 years go by, and I show up. Why, you may ask? Broken condom after my dad’s promotion party when he made MAJ.

What the actual FUCK is this dumb bitch talking about?
She’s going to have to explain how she made that idiotic deductive leap.
Apparently she thinks the only reason women join the Corps is for the free abortions.
Besides, so many of them are dykes, I wouldn’t think pregnancy would be a major issue.
Obviously she got a waiver for her AFQT score.
Priorities!
I once vowed to never say this, and I’ve fought the urge for almost two whole days, but…
Glad I’m out!

Retired! And I love it!
At one time the Navy/Marine Corps used to run a “school shuttle” with C-9s. They flew a round robin flight picking up folks from multiple Air Station for various TDY schools on a weekly basis and dropped them off and did the same in reverse.
Perhaps they’ll start a similar schedule mission for abortion service.
Outbound flight is a “milk run”. Return flight not a “milk run”.
3…2…1…
Maybe we misinterpreted the 10th Amendment? 🤔

What about stare decisis? She’s violating her oath. Impeach her now!!!
Is it too late to abort the people that are in favor of abortion? Asking for the 63 million murdered babies.
[…] SecDef Austin recently reiterated a commitment to allowing DoD personnel ready access to abortion, for some reason. Meanwhile, the DoD has been keeping records on abortions performed by military clinic in accordance with the Hyde Amendment. That law places restrictions on when federal monies may be used for abortions. […]
Ahhh…and then there is Lloyd Austin, who somehow should of never made the promotion list to major, yet alone all of those stars…wonder why…I seriously wonder if he really scored 110 GT, the minimum score on the ASVAB for any Officer , because if you have every met Lloyd , or heard him speak for a few minutes, you would realize that there really is no intelligence there what’s so ever, just plain stupid!!
