I hate to break this to you, but this article demonstrates that you can’t influence change from the inside, either — especially since the U.S. military has become more of a globalist mercenary corps than a legitimate institution for national defense these days.
The US military does nothing on it own, so clearly the problem lies with the administration ( as always). Change the admin- change the way the federal government in total operates, that simple. Don’t become a hopeless hater because the current admins have knocked over the bucket.
Yet, I too agree that there eventually comes a breaking point; a deliberate reading of the founding documents establishes clearly the right of the people to determine things when the prior means established have failed, but that is a very serious issue. We all (either tacitly or implicitly) swear allegiance to the US Constitution, never an officer of any branch of the government.
