Critical Race Theory will destroy a noble institution built entirely on colorblind merit.
On 17 August 1955, President Dwight D. Eisenhower prescribed a Code of Conduct for members of the Armed Forces of the United States. The purpose was to inform each service member in a combat unit about their basic responsibilities when engaged in combat or if they were captured by enemy forces. Of the six articles, the first and sixth articles are particularly powerful reminders about the Armed Forces’ mission and the dedication each member requires to complete that mission:
Article 1
I am an American, fighting in the forces which guard my country and our way of life. I am prepared to give my life in their defense.
Article 6
I will never forget that I am an American, fighting for freedom, responsible for my actions, and dedicated to the principles which made my country free. I will trust in my God and in the United States of America.

Critical Race Theory does not build up, it tears down. There is nothing aspirational or uplifting about it. And as a springboard to establishing “diversity” as a goal unto itself, as its own concurrent priority, inculcating those values into troops will not equip the military to succeed at its first, and most important goal, which is to fight and win in armed conflict.
Critical Race Theory is antithetical to the principles each military branch teaches, particularly in “boot camp” or “basic training.” This entry-level training -- and the arduous nature of the entire indoctrination into military service -- must necessarily diminish each recruit’s or candidate’s individual identity and replace it with the aspirational goal of becoming part of a successful, elite team with its own service’s unique culture and esprit de corps.

Not even a little bit true. I started thinking about the ones I went to since Clinton. There a huge host of pro-lifers and true American showed up at the impeachment rallies.
Promise Keepers had over a million men in DC.
National day of prayer in 2020 had a huge turnout.
There have been significant Trump events which turned out huge numbers.
But if the MSM ignores them, people say they never happened and that nobody is doing anything.
For my new book, “Dragonslayers: Six Presidents and their War with the Swamp,” I interviewed Sebastian Gorka, who is plugged into all the military networks as he frequently teaches seminars & workshops with military people. He said in 2013 (note date) he had done an offsite with 30 or so cols and lt. cols where he asked them on Friday to determine what they saw as the #1 security threat to the US, on Sat develop a strategy to counter it, and on Sunday share it with the group.
He said on Sunday, over 20 had “climate change/global warming” as the #1 security threat.
I received my monthly copy of “Proceedings” the U.S. Naval institute publication. The contents listed “On the importance of diversity and inclusion”, “Leadership through racial dialogs” and “Sir,no excuse Sir!”; A more diverse Navy officer corps starts at the Naval Academy. Several other articles looked like they could be similar crap. I’m seriously considering dropping my membership.
That should be an interesting book! It is sad that the military can become so brainwashed with leftist hoax propaganda. How are we going to survive as a country in a dangerous world if the military leadership is tilting at windmills?
That means 5 years later there are no conservative O-7s and above.
You mean scum like McRaven and Mattis who just lie about everything? They are feckless and leftist hacks. Find me a general or admiral that isn’t a lefty they are not active duty and are retired.

Why don’t we celebrate what unites us, not what separates us?
Wasn’t it the FBI that caused the violence on 1/6? I do believe I have read/saw that from a creditable source (War Room). The FBI has been up to no good for a very long time.
That is an allegation. I have very few doubts about it’s truthfulness. The fbi has been framing innocent Americans and undercutting the Constitution and playing politics for a very long time. Having said that, I await the actual documentary proof.
100% absolute truth. IMHO the entire officer corps are now committed progressive socialist democrats that are seeking to turn our military against rural folks who support the Constitution as written. As soon as they’ve purged the enlisted ranks of patriots, then the full force of the US military will be turned against us. This is just communist takeover 101.
Under the aftermath of the DNC January 6 bBS we have retreated quietly and seemingly alone hoping to left alone.
We are a police state now.
The only thing that can destroy the deep state is the NSA holding military tribunals.
We The People are still here. Heck some even change to Democrats party affiliation in hopes of being “left” the Frick alone.
Disgusting!
Was attendance mandatory?
If not, I wonder how many actually showed up to see this demented ‘show’.
Have you been watching Real America’s Voice? They were covering the story and War Room was all over it.
Yes! I believe Q was a deep state fed trap to out conservatives across the nation.
Don’t know about that but it is a possibility. I have no trust in anything or anyone except myself anymore.
I suspect lots of ‘our brass’ has sold out the country... Commie-lite pays in better retirement sinecures... and mansions and gigs on MSNBC.
Because this 'racist cancer' drives out people who love the country... and leaves the dregs.
You're right. If someone is calling on you to be violent it's likely an undercover FBI agent, a George Soros PR firms dude, or... worse.
Anyone who wants to sit in solitary confinement can respond to calls for violence... the rest of us damn well better understand there's two legal standards in the country... 'laws for liberal 'elites' and their pet thugs' - and laws for the rest of us. Just like in commie hellholes... two standards of laws based and defined by criminal thugs.
I’m using Christians in the generic sense, I don’t mean evangelical protestants. Also, I’m talking about turning out for social issues which is what CRT is. The political arena is where social issues (abortion, homosexual “rights”, CRT etc.) are imposed or stopped.
Impeachment wasn’t a social issue. Promise Keepers describes itself as a self improvement religious organization. National Day of Prayer is somewhat similar. Support for Trump isn’t a social issue either.
You don’t have to be religious to be against these destructive ideas but it should be a no brainer that they are all anti-Christian.
Unless people see that politics is where these issues are fought and freedom defended, we will continue to lose.
