"These people have psychiatric illnesses to start with... these are people that have gender dysphoria, which is a real psychiatric issue, It's the reason that we don't allow them in the military at this particular point, because they have psychiatric issues, and they're not eligible to serve in the military, as anyone else who had any other psychiatric issue would be."
"We have to treat these people. We have to get them off the streets, and we have to get them off the internet, and we can't let them communicate with each other... this is a virus, this is a cancer that's spreading across this country."
Ronny Jackson called for mass institutionalization and the removal of transgender people from public life, urging bans on their presence online and on the streets. Jackson labeled gender dysphoria a psychiatric illness and argued transgender people should be ineligible for military service, asserting those with psychiatric issues cannot serve. Jackson expressed support for conversion therapy and described transgender people as "a virus" and "a cancer" spreading across the country. Those claims were presented without supporting evidence, and they follow an executive order banning transgender military service amid broader debate over transgender rights.
