Five transgender members of the United States military testified in front of Congress on Wednesday, the first to do so publicly.Army Capt. Alivia Stehlik, Navy Lt. Cmdr. Blake Dremann, Army Capt. Jennifer Peace, Army Staff Sgt. Patricia King and Navy Petty Officer 3rd Class Akira Wyatt all testified in front of the House Armed Services Committee, according to the Washington Post.All five testified that they were able to do their jobs effectively after transitioning. Some testified that their fellow soldiers were comfortable with their transition, and their transition even allowed others to open up to them.“They talked to me and told me things they never would have before,” Stehlik said. “Things they said they’ve never told other people. I asked them why, and the consistent answer is that they valued my authenticity — my courage in being myself. It allowed them to do the same thing.”The Obama administration repealed a ban on transgender persons in the military in 2016, allowing active military members to serve openly as transgender for the first time in decades. But in 2017, President Trump abruptly changed the policy in a series of tweets. While a number of lawsuits have been filed and are ongoing, the Supreme Court recently ruled to lift an injunction in some cases, keeping the ban in place. The five military members testified that they all sought medical treatments as part of their transition that prevented them from deploying, but all said they were able to do so by taking personal leave in between deployments.Rep. Jackie Speier (D-California), who called the meeting, was among the representatives to file a bill that would allow transgender service members to serve openly earlier this month. That bill has been referred to committee. Even if it were to be passed by the House and Senate, it would likely face a veto from the president.Alex Hider is a writer for the E.W.

House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff on Tuesday called the State Department's blocking testimony of a key witness "strong evidence of obstruction" of Democrats' impeachment investigation, and the move is prompting House Democrats to issue a subpoena for the testimony in response.The State Department on Tuesday directed US Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland not to testify before Congress, scrambling Democrats' impeachment investigation and raising questions about whether they will be able to obtain testimony from other witnesses. But Schiff's sharp response to Sondland's absence is a sign of the escalating impeachment fight between the White House and Democrats."The failure to produce this witness, the failure to produce these documents, we consider yet additional strong evidence of obstruction of the constitutional functions of Congress," Schiff told reporters.In addition to blocking Sondland's testimony, Schiff said the ambassador indicated he had text messages or emails on a personal device provided to the State Department that State was withholding from Congress, which Democrats also planned to subpoena.Sondland's attorney Robert Luskin said State directed Sondland not to testify early this morning."He is a sitting ambassador and employee of State and is required to follow their direction," Luskin said. "Ambassador Sondland is profoundly disappointed that he will not be able to testify today. Ambassador Sondland traveled to Washington from Brussels in order to prepare for his testimony and to be available to answer the Committee's questions."Republican Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio, the top Republican on the Oversight Committee, said he understood why the administration blocked Sondland's testimony, charging that Schiff wasn't running a fair investigation and that he was selectively releasing text messages from former US special envoy to Ukraine Kurt Volker. Republicans are calling on Schiff to release Volker's interview transcript."I'm all for bringing the ambassador in, but let's only do so after we release the full (Volker transcript)," said Republican Rep. Mark Meadows of North Carolina.Asked whether he had concerns about the President asking the Ukrainian President and China to investigate his political opponents, Jordan said Trump was "doing his job.""When you're talking about the hard-earned tax dollars of the American people going to a foreign government, the President's going to make sure that there's no corruption there," Jordan said. "He's doing his job, his duty as the commander in chief, his duty as the President of the United States, so I don't have a concern there."Jordan added that he believed the public had a right to learn the identity of the whistleblower, given that the allegations could lead to impeachment of the President.Trump said on Twitter that Sondland should not testify before a "kangaroo court.""I would love to send Ambassador Sondland, a really good man and great American, to testify, but unfortunately he would be testifying before a totally compromised kangaroo court, where Republican's rights have been taken away, and true facts are not allowed out for the public...to see," Trump tweeted.'The days of playing nice are done'Sondland was set to testify behind closed doors before the House Intelligence, Foreign Affairs and Oversight committees as part of the 3373

Former Vice President Joe Biden is projected to win the Democratic primaries in Michigan, Missouri and Mississippi on Tuesday, after winning 10 out of 14 states on Super Tuesday. With Biden's win in Michigan, he earned a state that was won by Sen. Bernie Sanders in 2016. Winning Michigan was the biggest prize in Tuesday's six-state primary with 125 delegates up for grabs. Democrats award delegates proportionally, but Biden could rack up a large delegate haul between Michigan, Missouri and Mississippi.The races in Idaho, North Dakota and Washington have not been called.DELEGATE MATH:March 10 primaries:Biden: 131Sanders: 72Overall:Biden: 801Sanders: 646Needed to win: 1991Sanders entered Tuesday's set of primaries trailing Biden in national delegates. It appears the gap between Biden and Sanders will grow from Tuesday's votes. As votes were tabulated on Tuesday, former candidate Andrew Yang announced he is endorsing Biden."I believe Joe Biden will be the Democratic nominee....and I hereby endorse Joe Biden," Yang said. 1044

Federal regulators are setting up a new three-digit number to reach a suicide prevention hotline in order to make it easier to seek help and reduce the stigma associated with mental health.Once it's implemented, people will just need to dial 988, similar to calling 911 for emergencies or 311 for city services. Currently, the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline uses a 10-digit number, 800-273-TALK (8255). Callers are routed to one of 163 crisis centers, where counselors answered 2.2 million calls last year.A law last year required the Federal Communications Commission to study assigning a three-digit number for suicide prevention. The FCC said in a report that there is overwhelming support for a three-digit number because it would be easier for distressed people to get help.Thursday's vote starts the months-long process to make that happen. The next step is a comment period before the FCC moves to an order.The government's action comes as suicide rates have increased across the U.S. over the past two decades, and dramatically so — by more than 30% — in half of U.S. states, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. There were 45,000 suicide deaths in 2016. The report noted that from 1999 to 2016, suicide increased in every state except Nevada. It also noted that suicide rates are higher with at-risk populations, including veterans and the LGBTQ community.The new, shorter number would likely lead to more calls, which in turn would mean more expenses for crisis centers already struggling to keep up. If the number of calls to the hotline doubled, centers would need an extra million a year to handle the increase, the FCC said, citing the federal agency that funds the hotline, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration.The FCC determined that it would be better to have a new number that's only for the hotline, rather than one that's currently used for other purposes, such as 911. Advocates say that having a dedicated number, along with a message that mental health is of equivalent importance as medical emergencies, could help reduce the stigma of calling the number. 2150

Hours after conservative political activist Roger Stone was sentenced to 40 months in prison on Thursday, President Donald Trump said he felt that Stone had a "very good chance at exoneration."Trump said he wanted to "see it play out," but added that he didn't believe that Stone's case had been a "fair process."Trump also addressed reports that the foreperson on the jury at Stone's trial, Tomeka Hart, had posted anti-Trump sentiments on her social media accounts in the past."The foreperson of the jury was totally tainted," Trump said. "...how can you have a jury pool tainted so badly? It's not fair."Trump added that he hopes the judge considers Hart's potential bias on appeal."If she's not tainted, that's fine too," Trump said.According to the 766
