The Trump Administration on Friday updated its policy on troops with gender dysphoria asked Judge Reyes to dissolve her preliminary injunction.
The Biden-appointed judge immediately called a hearing and used it as an opportunity to shout at DOJ lawyers. Obviously, her mind is already made up.
Earlier this week, Judge Ana Reyes, a Biden appointee, issued a temporary nationwide injunction blocking Trump’s transgender military ban.
DOJ attorneys were back in court on Friday asking Judge Reyes to dissolve her injunction.
In January President Trump signed the “Restoring America’s Fighting Force” executive order and the “Prioritizing Military Excellence and Readiness” executive orders, which direct every element of the U.S. military to “operate free from any preference based on race or sex” and root out gender insanity and made up pronoun usage, respectively.
Judge Reyes grilled DOJ lawyers last month and said that Trump’s executive order asserting there are only two genders is “not biologically correct.”
The activist judge blasted the DOJ lawyers and asked them if they knew how much the military spends on Viagra every year compared to gender dysphoria treatment.
This has nothing to do with combat readiness. The judge already made up her mind and issued an injunction earlier this week.
On Friday, Judge Reyes once again showed that she is not open-minded and
Judge Reyes shouted at DOJ lawyers and wouldn’t let them speak.
4/ Judge only called this hearing to yell!
DOJ: The “standard of review changes”
Judge: You still need to show “rationale basis”
Judge won’t let attorney talk “I’m going to do this.”
This hearing is a clown show. Judge is NOT acting in good faith.

Judge Reyes has a history of abusing Trump’s DOJ lawyers.
Last month, the Justice Department filed a formal complaint against a federal judge assigned to Trump’s executive order on transgender troops for engaging in “egregious misconduct” toward its counsel.
The Justice Department detailed Judge Reyes’ shocking statements toward its attorneys in last month’s hearing.
“During these hearings, Judge Reyes engaged in hostile and egregious misconduct that violates Canons 2A and 3A(3) of the Code of Conduct for United States Judges, which requires judges to “act at all times in a manner that promotes public confidence in the integrity and impartiality of the judiciary” and “be patient, dignified, respectful, and courteous to litigants,” the DOJ wrote in a complaint against Judge Reyes.
The DOJ detailed two incidents of abuse of its attorneys.
The Justice Department said during her lecture on the “30 different intersex examples,” Judge Reyes grilled one of its lawyers about his religious beliefs and then used him unwillingly as a “physical prop in her courtroom theatrics,” the DOJ wrote.
The DOJ asked that “appropriate action be taken to address” the violations and requested an investigation.
