Last week we shared the disturbing news that the Sergeant Major of the Army recommended our soldiers apply for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), aka food stamps, to keep up with the growing inflation. I find it unconscionable that we are sending billions of dollars to foreign nations, but our troops are being told to sign up for assistance to afford food.
But this is just a small example of what is happening for our military. The perilous infusion of cultural Marxism into our Armed Forces is far more dangerous.
Recently, the Department of Defense Chief of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Kelisa Wing, who self describes herself as a “woke administrator,” made some very disconcerting comments towards white Americans…or folx as she asserts. I have to ask, how much is this racist person being paid while our soldiers are being told to apply for food stamps? But even more troubling is that such a radical individual is allowed access to our military? How can we have an effective, cohesive fighting force when you have a radical Marxist disparaging one demographic of our military force? Cultural Marxism has no place in our Armed Forces and the last thing we need is an office of diversity, equity, and inclusion in our Department of Defense, a cover for enabling these radicals.
It was not too long ago that our military was being focused on combat readiness, capability, and capacity to fulfill its mission. Now, we have a Secretary of Defense, with whom I served at Ft. Bragg NC, who is issuing memorandums telling members of our military to get used to troops suffering from gender dysphoria entering shower and latrine facilities with them. Basically, female troops are being told that biological men will be naked, showering with them. Now, if you are an adult and want to play make believe, fine, go ahead, but this should not be happening in our military. As well, the American taxpayer should not be responsible for subsidizing hormonal therapies or surgical procedures for individuals affected by this mental condition…the previous diagnosis of the American Psychiatric Association.
Just this past week, the United States Air Force Academy announced new rules about promoting gender neutral language. Can you imagine that the USAFA now advises against saying such simple things as Mom and Dad? They are advising cadets to inquire about a person’s desired pronouns before making any declarations. A few months ago, the U.S. Navy issued a video about correct pronoun usage. Hmm, I can remember some very interesting names that Drill Sergeants would use, and they did not inquire about pronouns. Matter of fact, knucklehead is gender neutral, along with stuck on stupid. There seems to be a lot of that in our military and its senior leadership at this time.
But what has to be most worrisome for our military has been the illegal, immoral, unethical, and unconstitutional COVID shot mandate forced upon our servicemen and women. Earlier this month, seven cadets at the US Coast Guard Academy were expelled for refusing to take the jab; the same has occurred at the United States Military Academy, West Point. And we are all aware of the countless stories of men and women in uniform who are being persecuted for not taking this shot. There are troops who are being segregated into deplorable living conditions, treated like lepers. They are having their constitutional rights denied, such as religious exemptions. They share their stories with us at the American Constitutional Rights Union’s Committee to Support and Defend, America’s constitutional conservative Veterans organization.
What should cause us concern is that our troops are being treated in such a disgusting manner even as we now know that Dr. Deborah Birx admitted they knew the shot would not prevent being infected with the virus. SecDef Austin, Commander in Chief Biden, and Dr Fauci all contracted the virus after having the shot and boosters. Last week, Joe Biden stated that the pandemic is over, so why are we still punishing our troops and mandating this shot on some of the most physically fit in our country? When you study the objective facts and statistics you will see that the infamous shot has caused more harm than what is being reported. There are countless cases of cardiac issues such as myocarditis. One has to ask, will our troops be able to file lawsuits against those who forced this untested shot upon them? Yes, it was only under emergency use authorization, not full FDA approval.
Will there be legislation passed in the U.S. Congress that will allow our troops to seek legal recompense? Will military members who were discharged from the military be reinstated? Heck, if the GOP is successful in the midterm elections, will the Department of Defense office of diversity, equity, and inclusion be defunded? Will our military find senior leaders who will honor their oath to the Constitution, not to political ideology, certainly not to cultural Marxism?
America’s constitutional conservative veterans’ organization, the Committee to Support and Defend, is taking the lead on these issues. Our U.S. military is being led down the perilous road of “wokeness.” The last thing America needs is a politicized military and kommissars advocating an ideology that is anathema to our rule of law, our Constitution…of which our military members take an oath to support and defend.
Steadfast and Loyal.
With his handling of his Iraq duties, I would have followed this man proudly. “Thoroughly Modern” Milley and Austin I wouldn’t follow to the latrine. I volunteered during Vietnam, I wouldn’t do so today if I were a young man. No wonder recruiting is down. Haven’t seen any re-up numbers. I bet they’re down too. Our enemies are amazed at how without them firing a shot, we have depleted our own defenses.
I’m with you, I would in no way enlist or re-up or advise anyone to do so. I know Marines who originally planned to become lifers in the service who now can’t wait for their EAS.
I guess they missed the cartoon recruitment ad with a girl whose two “moms” got married and she jumps off an eight foot wall and lands on one knee like Iron Man during basic training. I know it was for the Army but who could refuse military service after seeing that? It’s so realistic, inspiring and patriotic. America needs more cartoon characters who can’t fight.
Reportedly, the re-up numbers are indeed down.
I shopped the Fort Bragg Post Exchange and the Commissary (North Post near Spring Lake). An example of the prices at the PX might be the Mars Co/M&M’s candy bars at the checkout line, ringing in at $.1.25 with no Tax… or in the Commissary as 12-pak sleeve of Coke Products is $7.44 (with a 5% surcharge) adding about 37 cents or a total of $7.81 for 12 x 12 ounce cans. That’s over a $1.50 bulk for a can of soda. Bags of national brand chips for 8 ounces are $3.88 plus the 19 cent surcharge. WALMART has lower prices.
I have been in the Army or working or in retirement since 1974. I was shocked on September 27th of 2022 when I went on base for shopping.
Soldiers are under gag orders and cannot speak freely to anyone outside their units about DOD policies or respond to jokes as germaine as, “Does it rain in the Army or Does it rain on the Army?”, and soldiers state that they cannot resspond for fear of being turned in by the by-standers in civilian clothing – you can never be too sure. They are afraid and suspecious of every single person – like the old USSR. It is chilling.
The Dirtbagocrats are obviously evil.
The second they started insisting that we don’t have freedom of speech and must call them what they want to be called, that we must speak of them how they want to be spoken of, it was obvious in that first second that they would also insist that we have no freedom of speech in how we refer to ourselves either. No “mother,” no “father,” since these fake women can’t be mothers, unless of course they still want to be called “mother” themselves, in which case it is no longer banned but becomes obligatory.
Speech is thought and conflicting thoughts are everywhere. Let one side dictate its preferred speech anywhere and freedom of thought under attack everywhere.
We just never thought it would begin with something so impossibly stupid as people pretending they can change their sex, and half of society being so feckless as to go along with it, then so corrupt as to seek power in it, even as it immiserates and mutilates their own children.
Sad Sack and Beetle Bailey live on.
The problem is, whether or not we send billions to the Ukraine, it takes a separate bill to raise pay rates – that doesn’t count the bill to allocate the additional money. Congress needs to get going on this. It is not the fault of any general or admiral, it’s Congress.
The military went through this before back in the 1970’s, before most of you were born. I was in the navy and when the CNO sent out an all hands notice there were lots of sailors who knew they qualified but weren’t going to. My recollection is that the CNO sent out a subsequent notice explaining that the Navy needed all the sailors that qualified to be on food stamps in order for the senior military to say to congress (and the public) “see how many soldiers and sailors qualify for, and are receiving food stamps. They need a raise.” That’s what pushed Congress into giving a proper raise then, although I’m not sure if the leftists will do that this time.
