“Former President Barack Obama fired hundreds of pro-Constitution military leaders while installing hundreds of obedient globalist-leaning military “bureaucrats” into positions of influence within the Pentagon and various branches of the military.”
Whether Mattis said this or not, unless someone knows different, one thing that really disappoints me about President Trump and the rebuilding of our military forces, is that Obama (who’s father was a Communist; mother was a Communist; mother’s parents who raised him were Communists. And the person who was his mentor while growing up, was a Communist.) for the 8 years that he held that office, had purged the military of many strong conservative patriotic Generals and high officers who were combat experienced warriors, and replaced them with Politically Correct, Social Justice Warrior Liberal Democrats. I have not heard of Trump doing anything to purge the military of Obama’s Affirmative Action SJW replacements. The Navy, Army, and Air Force leadership are severely infected, while the troops are being brainwashed with Anti-Racism, ‘White Privilege’ and ‘Critical Race Theory’, which in reality is anti-American, anti-white hate propaganda meant to undermine and weaken our defense, and turning our military against Patriots.
“I have not heard of Trump doing anything to purge the military of Obama’s Affirmative Action SJW replacements”
That is because Trump has been heavily boxed in by the GOPe. Between Mitch and Ryan holding the threat of impeachment over his head the first 2 years, a permanent impeachment effort that Mitch allowed to go on for almost 3 months, a snakey Pence ready to step up with a “heavy heart” to return the GOPe to power. Between FBI and CIA spies INSIDE the White House, he has done well to even survive.
My estimate is that he has only possessed about 40% of the power a President rightfully should have.
You should maybe consider that.
Obama’s Military Coup Purges 197 Officers In Five Years
10/29/2013
Defense: What the president calls “my military” is being cleansed of any officer suspected of disloyalty to or disagreement with the administration on matters of policy or force structure, leaving the compliant and fearful.
We recognize President Obama is the commander-in-chief and that throughout history presidents from Lincoln to Truman have seen fit to remove military commanders they view as inadequate or insubordinate. Turnover in the military ranks is normal, and in these times of sequestration and budget cuts the numbers are expected to tick up as force levels shrink and missions change.
Yet what has happened to our officer corps since President Obama took office is viewed in many quarters as unprecedented, baffling and even harmful to our national security posture. We have commented on some of the higher profile cases, such as Gen. Carter Ham. He was relieved as head of U.S. Africa Command after only a year and a half because he disagreed with orders not to mount a rescue mission in response to the Sept. 11, 2012, attack in Benghazi.
Rear Adm. Chuck Gaouette, commander of the John C. Stennis Carrier Strike Group, was relieved in October 2012 for disobeying orders when he sent his group on Sept. 11 to “assist and provide intelligence for” military forces ordered into action by Gen. Ham.
Other removals include the sacking of two nuclear commanders in a single week — Maj. Gen. Michael Carey, head of the 20th Air Force, responsible for the three wings that maintain control of the 450 intercontinental ballistic missiles, and Vice Adm. Tim Giardina, the No. 2 officer at U.S. Strategic Command.
From Breitbart.com’s Facebook page comes a list of at least 197 officers that have been relieved of duty by President Obama for a laundry list of reasons and sometimes with no reason given. Stated grounds range from “leaving blast doors on nukes open” to “loss of confidence in command ability” to “mishandling of funds” to “inappropriate relationships” to “gambling with counterfeit chips” to “inappropriate behavior” to “low morale in troops commanded.”
Nine senior commanding generals have been fired by the Obama administration this year, leading to speculation by active and retired members of the military that a purge of its commanders is under way.
Retired U.S. Army Maj. Gen. Paul Vallely, an outspoken critic of the Obama administration, notes how the White House fails to take action or investigate its own officials but finds it easy to fire military commanders “who have given their lives for their country.” Vallely thinks he knows why this purge is happening.
“Obama will not purge a civilian or political appointee because they have bought into Obama’s ideology,” Vallely said. “The White House protects their own. That’s why they stalled on the investigation into Fast and Furious, Benghazi and ObamaCare. He’s intentionally weakening and gutting our military, Pentagon and reducing us as a superpower, and anyone in the ranks who disagrees or speaks out is being purged.”
Another senior retired general told TheBlaze on the condition of anonymity, because he still provide services to the government and fears possible retribution, that “they’re using the opportunity of the shrinkage of the military to get rid of people that don’t agree with them or do not toe the party line. Remember, as (former White House chief of staff) Rahm Emanuel said, never waste a crisis.”
For President Obama, the military of a once-feared superpower is an anachronistic vestige of an America whose exceptionalism and world leadership require repeated apologies. It must be gutted and fundamentally transformed into a force wearing gender-neutral headgear only useful for holding the presidential umbrella when it rains. It is to be “his” military and used only for “his” purposes.
