If you’re not worried about the military, you’re not paying attention

Tucker Carlson highlights how Biden’s military is more concerned with social justice than with defending the nation.

SNIP

However, many believed that Obama’s firings were driven less by the need to create a leaner, more efficient bureaucracy, and more by the desire to get rid of people who were not on board with Obama’s increasingly hard-left politics. Even if that wasn’t Obama’s goal, there’s no doubt that, even before Biden became Commander in Chief, the Pentagon had become a leftist institution.

I won’t belabor the point here (the virtue of these posts is that they’re short), but I did belabor that point in 2019 here and here. As the second link shows, I wasn’t the only one with this concern. Sundance, at Conservative Treehouse, also suspected that the military officer class that Obama had created during his eight years in office wasn’t averse to a soft coup against a sitting president whose policies the woke officers disliked.

All of which gets me to Tucker Carlson. He’s been in the vanguard of highlighting how, that even as China keeps expanding its military, including its weapons, the Biden Pentagon is obsessed with racism, gender, and sexual orientation. When Biden boasted about maternity flight suits

Tucker was back on Friday night with more concerns about the newly woke military. He explained that it’s no longer necessary to try to read the tea leaves to discern whether the Pentagon’s officer class (which is made up of the same college grads who have turned every other American institution into a progressive bastion) has unleashed progressivism on the military. Just go to the home page of the United States Special Operations Command (e.g., SEALS, Delta Force, Green Berets, etc.), and you’ll see this announcement about its Diversity and Inclusion Strategic Plan:

I try to shame liberals into honestly looking at what they believe. If every conservative could change the mind of one liberal then we would not have this mess. The true leftists are a lost cause though. They are just evil and I avoid them.

Judging from China's b****-slapping the Biden admin in Alaska, China does not find Joe Biden’s military of woke Generals, transsexuals, and pregnant female soldiers very intimidating.

Think how liberal 'elites' would feel if the new victim group was 'Japanese'... and a General who's grandfather was born in Japan takes it upon himself to ferret out all the soldiers who might have negative 'feelings' about Asians...

And it turned out blacks were being purged at higher rates - and the General felt the biggest issue was 'bad blood' between Asians and blacks.

This is nuts Liz... our military is there to protect the country NOT to put their thumbs on the scales of silly racial politics. This 'General' need to resign in shame.

The generals are following CIC Biden’s orders......
to give them the benefit of the doubt.

The “woke” culture is hate-filled vindictiveness w/ a cute label.

Note the obsession with veterans. Because they know the vast majority of veterans are NOT woke.

Very detailed the EVIL BS brainwashing of our military!! If George Washington were here today, the government would have already targeted/taken out George Washington first as a supposed “domestic terrorist”, etc.!!!!!!!

Some of them are unknowing (they are unaware of the final plan to take out and replace ALL our military with foreign troops, etc.) and/or brainwashed pawns, etc.

You need to put boots on the ground to win, but when winning isn’t the goal, there is no reason to do it. These are designed to be “endless wars”.

They are also demanding ZERO collateral damage. That is another thing that is not realistic and makes it nearly impossible to win.

Our diversity, not only in our Army, but in our country, is a strength. And as horrific as this tragedy was, if our diversity becomes a casualty, I think that’s worse,” Casey said.

The next two years will be particularly dangerous.

American political leadership is old, sick, weak, venal, and greedy. The Chinese are fully aware of this and will strike Taiwan when Biden's presidency is weakest.

TSHTF before the midterms, around when they start to invoke the 25th ammendment.

During Obama’s eight years as president he purged military leaders who lacked liberal credentials and promoted leftists. One of President Trumps missteps was not cleansing the Pentagon of those officers. Now under Biden these social justice warriors are ascendant and the last thing they are concerned about is winning wars.

They are also calling us “domestic terrorists” for being anti-abortion, pro Bill of Rights, anti-tyrannical government(s) [fed./state/local/international governments], etc.!! George Washington would lead the charge against the governments if he was here!!!!!

Yes, and we are going to see it all unfold before the mid terms.

Right; war now is targeting a vehicle with bad guys with a drone strike in an uninhabited area.

On a positive note, a lot less Americans are dying in the endless wars.
