Judge Who Mocked DOJ Over Transgender Military Ban Now Demands Spending Answers

A federal judge known for his sharp criticism of the Department of Justice (DOJ) over the transgender military ban is now demanding greater transparency in government spending. His latest push calls for more accountability from federal agencies, particularly in how taxpayer dollars are being used for military policies and legal battles.

The judge, who previously ridiculed the DOJ’s defense of the transgender ban, has shifted his focus to broader concerns about financial oversight. In a recent ruling, he stressed the need for clear and detailed reporting on government expenditures, particularly in areas affecting civil rights and military operations.

His call for transparency comes at a time when public scrutiny over government spending is intensifying. Advocacy groups have welcomed the move, arguing that taxpayers deserve to know how funds are being allocated—especially when they are used to defend controversial policies.

The judge has specifically urged agencies such as the DOJ and the Department of Defense to release detailed financial reports, emphasizing that taxpayers should not be left in the dark when it comes to funding decisions that impact national policy.

While federal officials have not yet responded, the ruling is expected to increase pressure on government agencies to justify their spending. With growing demands for financial accountability, the debate over transparency in government spending is likely to escalate.
