It is spreading to the officer corp and enlisted. It looks like they are only going through the motions and are giving it lip service. Got to go to a meeting now.

“What plan? Might I ask.”

It’s a reference to Qanon and the daily blurbs that would end in “trust the plan”.

Well, that is a hopeful sign.
Thanks

I can only add anecdotal evidence. My 21 yr old son, his friends, and most of his co-workers aren’t falling for this crap. It doesn’t take many to resist, only the will.

This is an internet site. Most of us only have anecdotal evidence. It’s good to hear.

Heck, yes !
Threaten his income (suspension $$), his promotions (letter of discipline), his family( collateral damage),
his position in the community (cancel culture), his pension (future security).

To be honest with you a read this article thinking I would be outraged and I’m probably the only one commenting that thinks this, but after seeing his facebook post I think this idiot is lucky the only thing being done to him is a letter of reprimand and being thrown out of the military. I don’t think his post reflects conservative values or the values of the military.

Obama started the purge by having senior officers promoted for political reliability rather than excellence in leadership.

Then we might as well admit that the U.S. military has devolved to the state of soldiers, airmen, and seamen of fortune, void of any conscience of “duty to the homeland”.

Another checkmark on the list of what makes a 3rd world country.

Next, with a possible draft, comes the choice of military service in exchange of expungement of prosecutorial records.

As it was during the Vietnam War.

I am ahead of the game, called it in the Obama years. Soon, every general in the military will be a woman, transgender or homosexual, it’s the only way possible to advance.

God help us if we have to fight a war.

The left is going after their enemies, rather than people actually going around committing crimes.
