I imagine our woke military leadership thought they would benefit from the prior default support American normals had for "the military" when jumping into politics against @TuckerCarlson. Except they failed to note how normals had been burned by other institutions previously. 1/
This is not 30, 20, 10 or even five years ago. Over the last two decades, normal Americans have found themselves attacked by every institution they had expected to protect them - academia, the media, the NFL... 2/
Even law enforcement betrayed them, in the form of kneeling cops & the FBI/DOJ cabal that tried to take down the man they elected President. So normals were not naive and vulnerable - they were prepared to be betrayed when the woke .mil leadership abandoned its principles. 3/
The woke military leadership, in line with its 20 year history of failing to win wars, failed here to understand the cultural battlespace for its lame info op against a conservative icon. It thought it could exploit our support for its political masters' ends. It was wrong. 4/
If our military can't understand its own culture well enough to succeed, how can anyone expect it to understand China well enough to beat it? It doesn't. Woke .mil knows that. That's why it wants to stifle such discussions. But it's too inept to do it effectively. 5/
Time to view the military as liberal-occupied territory. Time to abandon default support for its woke leades. Time for GOP pols to demand a return to standards, like tactical/strategic competence and strict non-politization. Con media, hi-lite abuses! 6/
This way, we can set the stage for reform under a new President. We can also make sure liberalism is properly assigned blame for the inevitable consequences of woke .mil leadership. There will be a major defeat under Biden. America must understand why to repair the damage. 7/
None of this makes me happy to say. Hesitating to recommend young Americans join this damaged institution - something many vets tell me they are experiencing too - is something I once could not imagine. But fixing this demands tough love, high standards, and hard calls. 8/
We owe it to our troops & our country to demand nothing less than a military that is focused solely on deterring and winning wars, that is totally outside of politics, and that is dedicated not to one party or some alien faculty lounge ideology, but to the Constitution. Out. 9/
He is correct. As a former officer, I am ansolutely disgusted by our military leadership. Anyone who thinks the military is on the side of the citizenry is sorely mistaken. They are going right along with our march to socialism, just like the militaries of other countries throughout history.

“Where you can ask for a “Time Out” in basic, and immediately get it. Stuff like that.”
Why, you know the Germans and a Japs in WW II were always willing to give our guys a time out every time they were beating our guys.

What are they going to do? Claim they’re now God-fearing Straight Christian men and women?
Oh, the irony is is rich.....
I served in the military and trust me there is NO ONE that I would encourage to enter the military at this time or the next 20 years!
Whatever. Up until several months ago Kurt was confident that the military had our backs and since he was ex-military and still had connections, he knew. Now he’s saying we have our backs.
Just another “writer”.
You get it!!!!
