Generals, veterans and citizens issue petition accusing Sec of Defense Austin of violating his oath to the US Constitution
American Thinker ^ | 30 Jun, 2021 | Carol Greenwald

In a hitherto unheard of action, retired military leaders and veterans are publicly stating that the Secretary of Defense is endangering the effectiveness of the US military.

The Committee to Support and Defend has initiated a petition to the Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin to “honor his oath” to “support and defend” the Constitution of the United States. The petition “respectfully insists” that Austin immediately countermand orders he has issued since taking office that have eroded military cohesion and readiness. The petition argues that Critical Race Theory is a toxic Marxist ideology with anti-Constitutional objectives. Ordering its teaching in the military endangers America’s national security, in contravention to Austin’s oath to protect and defend the Constitution and the United States from all enemies.

If nothing else, crt, is a theory. No one with half a brain is going to do anything based on a theory. What happened to the rule of law?

Oh, please. You don’t seem to know how the military works.

Been there. Done that.

You can't take an oath to defend the Constitution and then ignore it, especially when the next in line of succession to the Commander-In-Chief is Kamala Harris who is Constitutionally ineligible to serve as Vice President or President. President

At least with Obama they lied and generated a fake birth certificate and re-assigned a Social Security number from someone else. With Kamala Harris, they didn't even bother.

I have no doubt they are trying to float that but nobody is reacting. I fully expect false flags in the next couple of months as the audit results in AZ come out and GA and likely PA follow suit.

I think eventually all three states will decertify their electoral votes and then Joementia will no longer have 270. Look for a total communication blackout from the MSM when that happens.

The desperate is going down but they will fight to the end. We are in for a rough ride in the short term. We are in uncharted waters and I believe we are going to see things happen that most on FR are not prepared for. Things are not going to go back to the way they used to be.

So is now the time to lead the men in mutiny? Or do we wait until something happens? If they pull the trigger early, they’ll just get replaced with sycophants.

It’s a meme of a meme. The Milley in front of the fat black CRT instructor, I found on Jack Posobiec’s Twitter feed. I photoshopped the symbols onto Milley, and added the caption.
