Pentagon mandates testosterone screening for men over 30, symptom checks for women — 1dThe Pentagon rolled out mandatory testosterone blood testing for all active-duty and reserve service members aged 30 and older, with younger men tested only on request or if symptoms warrant evaluation, while women will undergo symptom-based screening rather than routine testosterone tests; the program aims to boost readiness by identifying hormonal and energy-related health issues. The initiative has drawn criticism from some doctors about the lack of robust evidence for universal screening, and the FDA plans to convene a panel in mid-September to discuss testosterone use in medicine.

Derek Foss Seems like a lot of money and time for something you can already ask your doctor about if you're feeling off. Wonder what the actual data shows.

Trump to Commemorate 9/11 at Pentagon; VP Attends Manhattan — Aug 27, 2026President Trump plans to mark the 9/11 anniversary at the Pentagon instead of Ground Zero, after officials indicated he wanted to attend and possibly speak but was blocked by a long-standing policy prohibiting speeches at the site.

China and COSCO deny the spying claims, while the allegations surface as Washington discusses security and trade with Beijing ahead of a Trump-Xi summit and amid Pentagon listings tying COSCO to China’s military.

Sam Okafor If COSCO ships are docking at our ports for decades, basic due diligence should've caught this way earlier than now.
