Senate unanimously confirms 2 LGBTQ women to top military positions
NEW YORK DAILY NEWS ^ | July 26, 2021 | MURI ASSUNÇÃO

The U.S. Senate has unanimously confirmed two LGBTQ women to top military positions.

~~~

On Thursday, Gina Ortiz Jones was confirmed to be the next undersecretary of the Air Force — the first out lesbian to serve in the position. Her vote came exactly one month after the Senate Armed Services Committee advanced her nomination.

She follows in the footsteps of Eric Fanning, who became the first out LGBTQ person to serve as undersecretary of a military branch when he was confirmed as undersecretary of the Air Force in 2013.

Three years later he became the first openly gay leader of any U.S. military, when he was confirmed as Secretary of the Army.

Shawn Skelly, a retired Navy commander, was confirmed as assistant secretary of defense for readiness.

Why? Are they actually experienced or has the military gone so batsh*t woke they’re just playing virtue signaling footsie while other nations want to crush us and that inclues that sieve which is our southern border?

I shouldn’t get worked up Time to pray. We have no Maccabees, we are letting this country turn in to a sh*thole.

“Unanimously confirmed?”

A republic. A representative form of government. No one is representing the majority of citizens who believe in traditional values.

Guaranteed.

I look forward to a time, after the way, when homosexuality is punished as a sex crime. JAIL THEM ALL!

I applaud this move. Straight women can absolutely destroy cohesion and morale in military barracks with their nonsense. Lesbians are just “one of the guys” and can be very good at their jobs.

The last time I was in, I don’t recall ‘dropping the soap in the shower’ as a mandated part of basic training. Although, I guess it could fall under the auspices of ‘PT’, depending on your proclivities.

Some gays who demand always getting their way would be better off having their own separate division of the military. Slightly off topic: Are the WACS still around?

Except that these lesbians will be instrumental in incorporating more ‘diversity’ and ‘inclusion’ into our woke military.

While I'd rather see zero perversity in the military I think you raise a good point.
