That’s a step up.

Secretary of Defense and assorted Biden military leaders claimed that they would focus on four “Cs — China, culture, climate and COVID.”

Only one of those was an actual military problem. Two, racism and global warming, weren’t even real.

Kirby’s claim that the weather and China are equally important may actually be a step up.

The Pentagon on Wednesday said the threats posed by China and climate change are “equally important” challenges to the United States.

During a Pentagon briefing Wednesday, press secretary John Kirby was asked which posed a greater threat to the United States.

“Both are equally important,” Kirby said, adding that Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin wants the Pentagon to be focused on both of those challenges.

Postmodernism means we’re back to Xerxes and King Canute giving orders to the waves. Maybe Austin and Kirby can declare that the Atlantic Ocean is racist and have it whipped.

Meanwhile, China, whose military is focused on actually winning, is going hypersonic. And our brass are focused on racism, global warming, and whatever lefty nonsense comes down the pike this week.
