Shark Week starts July 11 Shark Week starts July 11Air Force Chief of Staff Brown’s Racism Witch Hunt
Another disloyal military leader undermines our national security.
Excerpt:
“Unconscious bias,” an Air Force video warns, “can’t be seen or felt.” As the camera focuses on white personnel, an unseen minority voice claims that, “it hides itself in our unseen behaviors”.
“As Airmen in the U.S. Air Force, it’s our duty to acknowledge our biases whether we realize they exist or not,” the official video pushing critical race theory struggle sessions demands.
This is Chief of Staff Charles Q. Brown Jr’s new Air Force.
Brown, the first black Chief of Staff of the Air Force, ought to be a living symbol of opportunity. Instead, like other disloyal military leaders, including his predecessor, Chief of Staff David Goldfein, he’s smearing America, and conducting a witch hunt for imaginary racism.
The racial attack on the U.S. Force from within began with the Black Lives Matter riots.
“I am a Black man who happens to be the Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force,” Chief Master Sergeant Kaleth Wright tweeted using his official Air Force account. “I am George Floyd…I am Philando Castile, I am Michael Brown.”
Even Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison admitted there was no racial element in the Floyd case and had not even tried to add to the wrongful prosecution with hate crime charges.
...Later that year, President Trump rejected Goldfein, who had been recommended by former Secretary of Defense Mattis as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Goldfein decided to retire and was replaced by General Charles Brown whom he had picked as his successor.
His nomination hadn’t even been confirmed when incoming Air Force Chief of Staff Brown decided to release his own video complaining that he had been a victim of racism because of a parking spot and because someone in Korea once questioned whether he was really a pilot.
Stripes magazine described a speech in which Brown “seemed to barely contain his rage” and argued “that the ideals of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution ‘that I’ve sworn my adult life to support and defend’ have not always delivered ‘liberty and equality’ to all.”
That nonsense was coming from the first black Air Force chief who is considered a leading candidate to replace General Milley as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Brown’s insistence that he was held back because of his race was undercut by his prominent position as part of the U.S. Air Force’s ongoing push to promote minorities on the basis of race.
Would he hold the position that he does if his nomination couldn’t be sold as “historic”?
Instead of working to protect the country, the Air Force’s top leaders were acting like teenage TikTok influencers making videos accusing the country and the military that had given them so much of racism. But the performative displays of rage were just the precursor to much worse.
...The report on “racial disparities” in the Air Force and the Space Force found statistical differences between white and black personnel, but cautioned that while “the data show racial disparity, it does not indicate causality“. Correlation is not causation and there was no actual racism. But the report was already distorted by using the infamous Merriam-Websterdefinition of racism as power rather than hate, implicitly suggesting only white people could be racist. And it relied on surveys of enlisted personnel rather than any actual evidence that racism existed.
That didn’t stop the Air Force brass from expanding their divisive campaign to include a witch hunt for racism against Latinos, Eskimos, Hawaiians and Asian-Americans.
“Although the data is helpful, the most important information will come directly from our Airmen and Guardians,” Acting Secretary of the Air Force John P. Roth suggested.
The data would matter much less than the surveys of perceived bias. Goldfein and Wright had encouraged members of the Air Force to believe that they had been discriminated against through the initial “conversations about racism”. Now that the perception that racism was widespread in the Air Force had been manufactured, the surveys would confirm it.
...The same old trick of priming an audience long used by hack magicians and psychics was a favorite of diversity trainers who would run the scam at corporate events, presenting a few staged testimonials of racism, use them to convince the audience that racism was all around them, and then have the audience fill out a survey that would show the need for a lot more diversity training. Now the same scam was being run in the military.
Air Force Chief of Staff Brown claimed that the report contained “things I’ve actually felt”.
Feelings were now more important than facts not just on college campuses, but in the Air Force.
“Shame on us if we miss this opportunity to make a change that’s required across our Air Force to make it better, whether it’s the Air Force or the Space Force,” Brown berated.
What about actually defending America?
Air Force Magazine said that Brown and Chief of Space Operations John Raymond suggested that there “should be a balance between mission readiness and ensuring people’s voices are heard”. Mission readiness was only at best equivalent in value to conversations about racism.
And before long, mission readiness will be less important than accusing America of racism.
...Like so many other institutions, the overdose death of George Floyd, a career criminal, was used to manufacture a racism crisis as a pretext for hijacking and transforming the Air Force.
The only racism crisis in the Air Force was the one created by its politically correct leaders.
“When you get to senior levels, you have reserved parking spots around the base,” he told People Magazine. “I was in civilian clothes, I parked in a spot and someone came out and said, ‘That slot is reserved for the Pacific Air Force’s Commander.’ And I go, ‘Yeah, I know, because I am the Pacific Air Force’s Commander.’”
Someone didn’t recognize Brown when he was out of uniform and he assumed it was racism.
This is the incredible pettiness of the disloyal grievances behind Brown’s rage. This is the lived experience he’s using to justify upending the Air Force over an imaginary problem.
...How many careers will be ruined, how many promising pilots will be sidelined, and how badly will our military readiness be undermined to avenge General Brown’s parking spot?

Which, if any, military branch will be left to right the ship? Hope alone doesn’t stop the undermining that the fascists are doing to the Air Force, Army and Navy. Space Force falls under the Air Force. The perfumed princes now running the branches are career politicians, so they would kiss the ring of whoever is in the White House, but the damage to the troops and readiness of the military would be severe if this CRT b.s. is allowed to continue to infect the military.
The terror group China fears the most
East Turkestan Islamic Movement militant outfit threatens to stoke instability in Xinjiang after the US withdrawal from Afghanistan
https://asiatimes.com/2021/07/the-terror-group-china-fears-the-most/
Excerpt:
...The ETIM, also known as the Turkistan Islamic Movement, is an ethnic Uighur militant group active in Afghanistan that has long sought to achieve independence for Xinjiang, which it envisions as a future “East Turkestan.”
The ETIM is also active in Syria’s civil war, where battle-hardened fighters have largely been grouped in Idlib and other northern regions. The United Nations has categorized the group as a “terror organization” since 2002.
Curiously, the former Donald Trump administration removed ETIM from America’s terror list in November 2020, saying at the time there was “no credible evidence” that ETIM still exists....

“Terrorists” on their doorstep excellent. The CCP’s plan for world domination may be taking one for the team right next door. Once Trump is back the CCP house of cards will fall IMO.
