The U.S. Army is set to make major reductions to its special operations forces, and going after the Army’s elite warriors is no accident.
In an ever increasing effort by the Biden Administration to inject the U.S. military with as much woke propaganda as possible, special forces units remain among the few areas the woke warriors have failed to gain traction.

The Wall Street Journal reports that the Army plans to cut back roughly 3,000 troops, or almost almost 10%, from its special operation forces units.
The service plans to brief Capitol Hill in the coming days on the reductions. Mostly, the Army plans to cut special-operations troops in supporting roles such as psychological warfare, civil affairs, intelligence operators, communications troops, logistics and other so-called enablers, U.S. military officials said. The cuts would follow the reallocation last year of more than 700 special-operations troops from the Army and other services. In sum, the cuts to the Pentagon’s umbrella Special Operations Command would amount to about 3,700 troops since last year.
The reductions have been fought hard from within the special-operations community, but they are expected to happen, U.S. officials said. The final documents have yet to be signed by Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, officials said.
According to the Journal, the cutbacks would allow the Army to rebalance toward a large conventional ground force, which would be needed for any potential fight in Asia.

“How’s that for timing?”
Poor dumb me. I thought they might send special units to rescue the hostages. I guess I have seen too many Seal Team episodes.

Welcome back to civilian life guys. We can use your help.
Well, if you’re going to train illegals to see American citizens as ‘the enemy’ this move against our elite forces makes sense.

One of the only areas still worth a damn. Nice. Real nice.
