The church abruptly ended her services an hour early without notice and to the shock of everyone in attendance. After the announcement, Qween Jean began to chant "Major Power" to take back the power in the room. May Miss Major live on forever and ever 🙏🏾 This Week In Politics Trangender Members of the Air Force Take Legal Action Against the Government A group of 17 trangender members of the military gathered to sue the government for a loss of retirement pay. Up to 2 million dollars is on the line here for these individuals as people who serve in the air force for 15-18 years are guaranteed retirement pay for life (including healthcare. In the light of Trump's bill earlier this year that sought to remove trans people from the military, The Air Force said that affected members who served 15-18 years could apply for a waiver that would grant them the retirement plan. They then denied them their retirement benefits.
