I have a fellow musician who I chatted with the other day. He’s retired Navy and Army and worked with a military sub-contractor. I asked him about this and he affirmed it as he said he “knows a couple of generals”. He also mentioned the ‘litmus test’.
I imagine they’ve been monitoring all communications of key personnel for some time and are clearing out potential dissenters that won’t turn their weapons on citizens. Look to see Muzzies, Nazi feministas, and LBGT’ers fill their shoes.
