Military recruitment in the United States is way down at the same time as the Biden Administration is driving out so-called “White supremacists” (anybody who voted for Trump or believes in the Constitution), those opposed to taking the COVID vaccine due to religious or health concerns or natural immunity, and people who refuse to use the preferred pronouns of gender activists. The result of all this is a neutered and divided military increasingly unable to fight and win wars.
Recent polling by the University of Chicago found that two-thirds of Republican and Independent voters and 51 percent of self-described “very liberal” voters agree that the U.S. government is “corrupt and rigged against everyday people like me.” Trust in all our institutions is falling and the military is no exception.
A December 2021 survey by the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute determined that Americans’ strong confidence and trust in our military had declined from 70 percent to 45 percent over the previous three years with 11 percent of that collapse happening just since February 2021, a month after President Biden took office. The disastrous pullout of American troops from Afghanistan in the summer of 2021, leaving Americans, allies and more than $7 billion dollars in weapons and equipment behind, also played a part in the steep decline. Our increasingly “woke” military is losing the hearts and minds of the American people.
Young Americans join the military for a variety of reasons, but patriotism is a common element. Critical Race Theory (CRT) indoctrination is now required throughout our Armed Forces, including at our military academies. CRT teaches that our nation is systemically racist and that all White people are essentially evil.

I disagree with the author. Our military isn’t being destroyed by critical race theory, transgenderism and ‘diversity, equity and inclusion.’ It was already destroyed by corrupt civilian leaders who spent their entire political careers selling the U.S. military to foreign/corporate interests.
This is intentional.
Every single democrat hates our military.
A draft ain’t coming anytime soon. Anyone involved in a draft board would require a presidential-level security detail when dealing with a demographic cohort of misfits and losers who have no problem shooting up schools.
As badly as the military has hidden rapes and sexual assaults and not prosecuted some of the crimes, this is intentional to keep our best and brightest from not enlisting.
Destroying an entire military for one of the Superpowers just to cater to mentally ill people.
Shaking my damn head.
Gen Milley is doing a great job of destroying our military.
This means when the CWII comes the Union won’t be able to field an army.
Hopefully, we’ve got enough intelligent recruits that are wise enough to know to just FLUSH Austin’s Critical Race Fairytales being taught in the Critical Race Army Program. Austin should have recused himself from this fight a long time ago. He’s prejudiced.
that highly expensive gender reassignment [genital mutilation] surgeries are on the way to a military hospital near you.
“Equity and inclusion,” as interpreted by the Biden regime, means unequal treatment and advancement based on race or sexual orientation [preference] as opposed to merit.

Uh,,, that’s 83 Billion
Not 7
Even when portrayed as pro, they gotta slip a cin lie in

I don't consider the Democrats and other communists to be "the Union". And besides, it'll be RWII.
Yes, and it's no accident.
It is all by design.
The objective of the cabal which controls Biden's puppet-strings is the destruction of the USA.
Understand this, and everything falls into place.
I hope so, but I am concerned the top brass is doing damage that is not apparent right now.
Imagine the balloon goes up, we send our guys, but we can’t sustain an effort because we’re out of ammo or gas.
You may be thinking about Korea, when we were a mess after WWII. We got our act together. But back then, the Government was still on America’s side. By all indications, this is no longer the case. Things might be different this time.
Yes, good post.
One thing that is scary is RW’s can go either way. We were fortunate last time.
One thing about commies, they want their way BAD and they fight like the devil for it. This one could be a real throw-down... BUT, I really think we have the numbers. We may have the numbers in a big way, it’s hard to tell with the media and commies distorting everything (voting, polling, etc.).
How things have changed. When I was in the military during the Vietnam era and we troops were dragged into military lectures ordered from the top of the food chain, it was usually about stuff everyone already knew, like the dangers of STDs and hookers. We laughed at the grainy films and the childish melodramatic script they read from, but we put up with it before we went on liberty to go play with the hookers. Now, these poor troops would welcome the STD lectures and grainy films of crabs crawling in crevices. rather than today’s lectures of what racist Caucasian a$$es they are.
"Flies spread disease, so keep yours closed!"
That's because in Korea we were fighting for the UN, and not the US.
As they take our speech and religious freedom and our guns, at least the unprofessional army will be weakened as well.
The government fears an armed society because they can make enforcement difficult to impossible in some areas. But if you think for one minute a thousand heavily armed citizens with body armor and MSRs are a threat to the military, you are wrong. Between SpecOp trained cops and tens of thousands of kamikaze drones, armed citizens will be meat for the grinder. They do not need the troops. Not a popular thing to say on this site but that is the reality. Once they fully run out the drone tech they are using in Ukraine, unless there is a valid technology answer to drones, they do not need combat troops like they did in Iraq or Afghanistan.
Never use the language of the Left.
