This came into my inbox today from an Army lawyer (judge advocate). The reader gave me permission to post it if I left off his name and the names of mutual friends who urged him to reach out to me: I just read your piece, “Witness Against Wokeness” which reverberated strongly with me — not because I have any experience with Eastern European Communism, but because it is happening here and now and I am on the receiving end. I’ve already spoken with our mutual friends [names] about this matter and had hesitated to bring it to your attention. However, given the tenor of your latest article I have to warn you, the soft totalitarianism you’ve been trying to draw attention to is right in your own backyard. The great purge of Conservatives from the US military has begun; once the ranks are sufficiently cleansed then the overarching work to remake our country can begin in earnest. I am a part-time Army Reservist who has drilled for the past 4 years at the [unit] in [Louisiana city] and had recently transferred to the [unit near a different Louisiana city]. A week ago, I received my “Notice of Purge” in the form of a General Officer Memorandum of Reprimand (“GOMOR”) personally signed by Lt. Gen. Charles Pede, The Judge Advocate General of the Army (the guy who advises the Joint Chiefs of Staff and briefs at the White House). This is akin to Zeus looking down from Mt. Olympus and hurling a thunderbolt from on high to obliterate some unsuspecting peasant plowing in his field.

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”.
“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.”
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.
“Is The US Military Being Purged Of Rightists?”
Does a bear defecate in the woods?
“I can only add anecdotal evidence. “
This is an internet site. Most of us only have anecdotal evidence. It’s good to hear.
Could ‘rightist’ shoot fellow ‘rightists’ if ever commanded?
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.
Bravo Zulu! I will send you something offline which you will find astonishing.
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.
