It’s time we face an unpalatable reality. Nothing less than the national security of the United States hangs in the balance.
The truth is we are in the midst of the third Obama-Biden administration. The cumulative damage is incalculable as we are reaping the whirlwind of having elected in 2008 Barack Obama – a man who, in a moment of hubris-driven candor on the eve of his first presidential election, declared the incipient “fundamental transformation” of America.
As president, Obama did as much as he could get away with to morph the nation. Domestic policies eroded our constitutional order and the freedoms it guarantees. Remember his pronouncement that “I have a phone and a pen,” his pretext for taking actions he had previously acknowledged he could not legally do?
Among the worst of his enduring legacies is that, far from being the promised post-racial president, Obama deliberately and repeatedly exacerbated race-relations.
Obama-Biden 1.0 and 2.0 pursued foreign policies characterized by appeasement and emboldening of foreign enemies that dangerously diminished our nation’s standing in the world. They brought us, for example: “apology tours;” unenforced red-lines; and disastrous initiatives like the Iran nuclear deal, embracing the Muslim Brotherhood which led to the toppling of friendly, if imperfect, Mideast regimes and acceding to the Chinese Communists’ seizure of atolls that would, in short order, be turned into bastions for their controlling the strategic South China Sea.
The first two terms also translated into the population of the government with a cohort of radical leftists. Many started out as political appointees but wound up as senior members of the permanent bureaucracy. From that vantage point, they were able to undermine, betray and otherwise stymie the Trump presidency and set the stage for a restoration of the Obama-Biden regime in 2020.
To those who would assert that Joe Biden is the President now, not his former boss, I would simply say: Really? It is no longer possible to ignore Biden’s obvious physical and mental incapacitation. Someone else is clearly running the U.S. government.
Barack Obama has boasted that the Biden White House staff is comprised of his people. The same is true of myriad individuals now serving in Cabinet and sub-Cabinet positions. And he previously expressed a desire to run things without having actually to be president.
What especially imperils our national security now is the fact that the subversive legacy of the previous Obama-Biden terms is becoming manifest in the U.S. military, as well. It is, arguably, the last national institution to undergo the Marxist makeover Barack Obama set in motion. But, thanks to officers aggressively promoted during his 1.0 and 2.0 presidencies becoming senior commanders, it is perilously devastating morale, retention, recruitment and readiness.
A particularly important and topical example is the current nominee to succeed the disastrous Gen. Mark Milley as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff: Air Force General Charles “C.Q.” Brown. An accomplished combat aviator, Brown has in recent posts – including his present one as the top Air Force officer – become a champion of the full Obama-Biden transformational agenda, including: substituting racial quotas for the armed forces’ renowned, and necessary, meritocracy; social engineering to accommodate, among others, psychologically disordered transexuals; and the indoctrination of future military leaders with critical race theory.
To date, Gen. Brown’s disqualifying attachment to such radical notions has not been properly vetted by the U.S. Senate. During his confirmation hearing only two of its Armed Services Committee’s twenty-five members asked him questions that touched on his own positions, let alone the damage those so-called “woke” policies are doing to the military. An urgent request by thirty-one national security practitioners and other public policy leaders for Gen. Brown to be closely questioned about both thus went largely unheeded. With the Committee voting out the nomination last week, this seriously defective promotion now awaits final action by full Senate.
I suspect the reason for such kid-gloves treatment is that Gen. Brown is black. And many in the Senate and elsewhere are responding to the prospect of his becoming Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff as we did Barack Obama’s candidacy for the presidency – namely, with the hope that it will banish racism. Sadly, as with Obama, Gen. Brown is certain to inflame it, instead.
As a shooting war with Communist China looms, this is no time to indulge in wishful thinking about bringing the full Obama-Biden “hope and change” bait-and-switch next to our armed forces. We must stop the military’s Marxist transformation now, and the place to start is by rejecting the appointment of C.Q. Brown to be its next top officer.
Frank J. Gaffney formerly acted as an Assistant Secretary of Defense under President Ronald Reagan. He is currently the Executive Chairman of the Center for Security Policy and host of “Securing America.” Opposition to the Brown nomination can be conveyed to your Senators at www.SecureFreedom.org.
Ugly Sid says
Explain to me why things are not as they seem.
Brown seems a saboteur with a chip upon his shoulder dedicated to our military castration.
This is one time of many for to be thankful for Mister Gaffney.
Michael says
Frank,
Tell us something we don’t already know.
P.J. Clairvoyant says
Mr. Gaffney, what makes you believe that the Dems want to fight China? They want to fight you. They anticipate a civil war and want to have a Red Army to win it. And that’s what they are building. Sinister, but very logical. I wish Republicans would do the same. But they don’t even seem to have the brainpower to realize where they are and what is going on.
Cicero says
By making the Democrat Party the dominant political party in the USA for the past 100 years, the majority of the people of this country have overwhelmingly supported the transmogrication of what was once a “shining city on a hill” into a modern day Sodom and Gomorrah. The good ol’ US of A that existed not even a lifetime ago is just a distant memory. I want no part of what this country has become. It’s already over.
VietVetInOhio says
Agreed. We are morally depraved with the alphabet sexual groups preying on our children and grandchildren. We have “elected” Joe 81 million, who it turns out, wanted $81Million and more, up to $Billions from Burisma, for himself and Hunter. He’s marching us toward war with either China or Russia or perhaps both countries. His VP is unable to deliver a decent speech, whether that is because she cannot write one for herself or she cannot read one in the required manner. Mayorkas is no way up to the job of protecting our borders. Biden is trying to stop Trump from becoming president once more with his bs charges. We are in deep trouble. It’s time to bow our heads and ask the Lord God of Heaven and earth to guide us. We are not on the path most Americans want us to follow.
Darrel says
It’s amazing how much this dried up mummy can destroy before he go to heII where he belongs.
Glenn says
Can’t stop it. MOST of the republicans are complicit
VietVetInOhio says
I would not say it’s “most” but there are certainly plenty of Rinos who vote with the Democrats. If the FBI and DOJ wanted to earn their keep, they should investigate how many Reps and Sens are being bribed for their votes to go in certain ways.
It would be most appreciated by We The People!
Mandy says
Such as? If you are going to make accusations then name who you are referring to in the GOP.
CowboyUp says
Lindsey Graham, would be near the top the list. Mitt Romney, Paul Ryan, Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, and too many others,
How many times did the GOPe House and Senate pass laws to overturn obamacare, only to fail to do so even once when they had a Republican president to sign it instead of a dem to veto it? What happened to the anti-abortion bill Lindsey Graham announced to great fanfare on the eve of the 2022 election?
It’s pretty obvious much of the GOP is either owned by the democrat party, or democrat moles. Dems even have consulting firms to help them run for office as Republicans.
The Eve of Battle says
You are RIGHT on all counts, as you usually are, Mr. Gaffney! And most pressingly about Gen. Brown. Gen. C. Q. Brown is unfit to be appointed as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. He is a MILITANT activist in the “anti-racist” movement (using racism to grind his axe), who is totally blinded by his ideology to the supreme requisite job description of the military appointment. He is TOTALLY UNFIT for purpose …. and so will our military be if he is allowed to fill this position.
As if Gen. Mark Milley has not done ENOUGH damage!
Luz Maria Rodriguez says
Whenwe get a decent Prez and AG into office, these corrupted must, m.u.s.t., be prosecuted for their crimes and others for their complicity. IF we do not make the pay for their treasonous behaviors, they or others like them will continue at their next opportunity. Hang ’em high.
Darrel says
There is a price to pay when low IQs third worlders are allowed in position of power. Maybe one day people will understand – hopefully before is too late – that discrimination has a positive side…. marxists should never be allowed to run in elections, never mind occupy the offices of power, because their only interests are for themselves and their brethren. There are too many examples at this point to post here and is time voters that care for the country will realize that the choice is not between candidate or another, but between the country and a marxist takeover. Both cannot exist at the same time.
At this point, the only way to save America is through the 2nd Amendment.

Another loser getting ready to pound yet another nail in America’s coffin.
Jan VI says
Fine article, Mr.Gaffney, except that re “Opposition to the Brown nomination can be conveyed to your Senators at www.SecureFreedom.org”, the link does not function as described.
SPURWING PLOVER says
No Commies in our Military No Red Stars or Hammer & Psyche we don’t want Biden and his fellow Globalists this is what McCarthy warned us about and by all means No American UN Peacekeepers let those other nations solve their own problems we can help out after a Natural Disaster
aristotle cam says
Thank you Senator Tuberville-you’re one of the few U.S. Senators standing tall against these Obama
wannabe copies!
Royal Allen Brown III says
Obama is definitely running the Marxist takeover of US and its military. All of the flag officers at top of our military are in violation of their Oaths of Office by continuing to serve and supporting this Marxist Obama 3 regime.
Gen CQ Brown is not “an accomplished combat aviator” – he has no awards to indicate that he is e.g. no Distinguished Flying Cross or Air Medal for example. He is in league with Marxist CRT and their false ideology that the US and its military is systemically racist. He has even stated that no more than 43% of officers in our military should be white.
Contact your Senators today thru Congressional Switchboard (202) 224-3121 – ask operator to connect you to their office and tell them to vote NO on confirming Brown’s nomination. He together with Obama Clone DOD Secy Austin will wreak havoc on our military..
RS says
Many nations have went the way of destruction because of their rejection of God, and lifestyle of sin, abortion, human trafficking, lawlessness, meltdown of family and clean educational teaching in our schools, plus borders that allow many enemies to come in and destroy the nation from within.
2 peter 2:6, 7 says “And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an example unto those that after should live ungodly; And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked.” This means literally, the filthy manner of lifestyle.”
God deals with rebellious nations who defy morality and His purposes for mankind. When a nation sets its jaws against God, the result will be a plague of homosexuality, and we see the results. Eventually when people ignore the obvious decay of society, Romans 1:24. God will deliver the nation over to a depraved mind, at which the nation will either destroy itself or be destroyed by an outside force, and lower the hedge of the protecton around the nation. Romans 1:28. The problem is that evil becomes too ingrained in the fabric of the nation. When we turn our backs on God, we rejet the very One who gave us all our blessings.
Sir Peter says
The only path left is a military revolt. Patriots must take over and try all this scum for treason and apply the usual penalty. Even the dems know this. That’s why they are purging the forces of ‘white supremacists’ and offering citizenship to illegals who join up.
D3F1ANT says
WTF? The Marxist makeover of the US military is already OVER! They’re already finished! CRT (or whatever alias they use) DOMINATES the academies. Training opportunities and promotions are based on race and gender. Enlisted people receive PRONOUN TRAINING! And habe you seen the Admiralty? Come on!
