A high-ranking Space Force officer has vowed that the Space Force will promote lesser qualified candidates over candidates who come from Red states that pass laws to protect children.
If you come from Florida and want to serve your country, then don't expect to be promoted.

Well- I’m wondering if he thinks the red team is so very intolerant of others and maybe, just maybe, you know they would have a hard time playing with others, like ETs. I can see his point.

How to say you didn't even read the article without telling us you didn't read the article.
The General who made that statement was a woman, or is "he" her preferred pronoun?

'Those barriers are a threat to our readiness, and they have a direct correlation to the resiliency and wellbeing of our most important operational advantage: our people.'
Someone who is so fearful of how people might perceive them that it would keep them from performing their duties is never a "good match for a job" in the military.
That she thinks people who tend to be fearful are a good match for the military says a lot about her, perhaps she isn't the best match for her position.

Yeah.
Most people just let their knee-jerk reaction do all the attempted 'splaining to the rest of us who did a little follow up and listened to what she said.
Wouldn't matter much if I were President. I would still have her resignation on day 2. She is using her position in an attempt to influence state law.

OP you might want to re read the article you linked.
From the article: Lt. Gen. DeAnna Burt explains "When I look at potential candidates, say, for squadron command, I strive to match the right person to the right job.

Did I miss something in the article ? Are there laws in red states prohibiting transgender individuals ?
Some states prohibit health care for trans people. And is a service member has a trans child that can't get access to health care in a certain state, then that service member isn't going to be sent to that state.
