Hegseth wants a "High-T" military; doctors call it a clinical minefield

“This is a great big fat ‘Oh, no,’” Anawalt said in reaction to Hegseth’s announcement. “We’re turning the clock back on rational healthcare. … I’m worried about the ethics. I’m worried about the health consequences. I’m worried about unnecessary evaluations, incorrect assessments, and incorrect diagnoses that lead to inappropriate prescriptions of testosterone.”

Funny how they're suddenly fine with gender-affirming care ...

In 4 months they’ll be indiscriminately issuing amphetamine stims to service members. I mean, it worked for the SS. Probably. At least for a little while. Actually, I have no idea, but it seems like something Keitel and Goering would be all about to claim they had a chemical edge over all the subhumans occupying their lebensraum.

He’s a complete moron that wants to run the military like he is in a cheap 80s B-Movie

What this is, is another ridiculous ploy by Beta-cuck Hegseth to have homo-erotic fantasies about his big burly, tough macho men in tight uniforms. Just get drunk again, Pete, and come out already!
