Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) said that the military’s moves to include transgender soldiers in its ranks had shifted its focus away from its core mission, the Washington Post reports.
Said Cruz: “How about having the military focusing on hunting down and killing the bad guys…instead of treating it as this crucible for social justice innovations. We’ve lost sight of what their job is and that’s what we need to get back to.”
He added: “We shouldn’t view the military as a cauldron for social experiments.”
