In last week’s article, ‘What Would a Kamala Administration Look Like?’ I put together profiles of some of the figures who are rumored to appear on Kamala’s shortlist
One of them is her potential Secretary of Defense pick.
While I’ve written about the widely-held expectation that Harris would choose a woman as Secretary of Defense, the name in circulation has changed in the last month. At first, everyone mentioned Michèle Flournoy, one of the co-founders of the Center for a New American Security and the perennial candidate to be the first female SecDef. Her name was floated in 2016 when the polls showed Hillary Clinton’s inevitability, and again in 2020 when Biden won. She didn’t get the nod either time—and for very different reasons—but when Harris ascended to the top of the ticket, Flournoy, who is also widely loved and respected, seemed a natural contender.
But now, a month later, a different narrative has emerged. Flournoy, who is the managing partner of WestExec, a consulting firm she co-founded with Blinken, is now seen as having too many potential conflicts of interest—and, as one source told me, having “made too much money”—to serve or to get through the confirmation process. Kathleen Hicks, the current deputy to the Pentagon chief, would be another natural candidate, but is seen as having had too many actual conflicts with the Biden White House. So who will it be? The name I keep hearing is Secretary of the Army Christine Wormuth.
As I noted, Wormuth, who got her start as a Clinton intern, has presided over a catastrophic enrollment decline and announced that she wanted to transform military recruiting to focus on equity.
The Secretary of the Army complained that “today more than 80% of recruits come from military families. There is a risk of developing a warrior caste when only 1% of the population serves in the military.”
Instead, “the Army is strategically deploying recruiters to communities across the country based on demographics, ethnicity, race, and gender,” Wormuth had claimed. The goal was to jettison the multi-generation military families who create the “warrior caste” that she wanted to avoid.
The last thing we want is a “warrior caste”. Not when we can have a DEI Department of Defense instead.
Too many military families are Republicans anyway.
Yeah, who wants soldiers, Marines, sailors and airmen who can fight. Lets recruit trannies and fairies only.
If Heels Up Harris gets in office through vote cheating the way Alzheimer Joe did, our entire military will be full on tranny. “Hey Boys! Get ready for a makover!” More like “Let’s go, girls!”
This will make USA vulnerable for instant defeat as the enemy laughing their collective asses off on its way to annihilating US troops –
A far better idea is to end the political caste.
They want a military they can use against the people.
Take away their Bodyguards and lets see them get anywhere without their Protection
USA run by woke commie liberatards from POTUS to Sec of Defense? Are they sh*ting me? The idea is to give the enemy and the deep state the keys to USA to turn this nation into total commie of the oligarch kind – these damned idiots with the harris – walz signs in their yard tells me how stupid and demonic these people are who will even consider voting for these demonic bastards!
Awalz signs? seriously.?
I’m reminded of a novelty tune by Tom Leher called “The Folk Song Army,” released in 1965. The last stanza concludes:
So join in the folk song army
Guitars are the weapons we bring
To the fight against poverty, war, and injustice
Ready, aim, sing!
Don’t you feel more secure now?
I’m actually holding onto my balls when I read stuff like that.
The TRUMP Administration should do all it can to ensure the Trans/Gay Worriers (sp intentional) can all be in a cohesive, organized setting! I would form a NEW DIVISION of nothing BUT those Worriers! They can man/woman (take their pick) the NEW BASE in ANTARCTICA! Skirts, wear ’em if you got ’em!!
I would further ensure today’s young MEN and WOMEN that they can have a Career in the Military and Serve with Honor and Dignity far removed from the political whims of the left! We need to establish SAFEGUARDS against the destruction of Our Armed Forces! With control of the House and Senate and White House, LAWS NEED to be ENACTED to PRESERVE Our Military as a FIGHTING FORCE!!
I would send them and her to set up their own base, in Afghanistan preferably. Provide them tampons and hand-waving lessons( see video of Gwen wallz) and let them get on with it….
So let’s see. Our current Chairman of the Joint Chiefs thinks that no more than 41% of our officer corps should be white and this person as Sec. Def. wants fewer people from traditional (read “white”) military families. This is all insane. Stalin nearly lost WW2 because of his political purges of the Red Army’s officer corps. Now we are repeating the mistake through this racial garbage. The Left is simply killing this country.
Christine Wormouth, typical civil servant failing upwards. Luckily the American people are armed.
It isn’t going to stop on its own.
