Military veterans account for 7% of the adult population of the United States, according to a report released by the U.S. Census Bureau last year. NPR looked into the backgrounds of those charged so far in the violent Capitol attack last month by supporters of then-President Donald Trump and found that nearly 20% are veterans — meaning those who have served in the military were nearly three times more likely than non-veterans to have been involved, despite having taken an oath to defend the Constitution.

Former military, obviously transgender, so probably had a virtue-signalling good time. Time for payback.
What a crock of BS. It’s all about attacking white conservatives as domestic terrorists. It won’t end well.

So the insanely leftist propaganda organization known as NPR looked into it? Oh, my that’s rich. I’ve got to stop typing now. I’m just laughing too hard.
I wonder why msm never label blm as black nationalism?
Well, ac ually I do know why.
It’s PRECISELY because they chose to defend the constitution.
Not defend a corrupt and thoroughly vile Democrat Party.
As far as I’m concerned, any military member that sides with today’s Democrats is an enemy.
Period.
“White Nationalism” meaning what, exactly? They never seem to be able to say.
It’s okay to be white.
7% ???
I think it was about 10% when I served in the early 1970s...
I certainly would NOT want to be in the service today. Doesn’t take much for you to be labled and UCMJ’d out of existence. And newly approved AAAAAA* secdef is fine with this “purge” based on, nothing? Someone says, “Private XXX looked at me funny.” BOOM! Gone.
* Affirmative Action African American Admiral Austin.
Patriotic Caucasians are White Nationalists.
Despite? No, BECAUSE we took an oath!
You think that NPR couldn’t possibly be any more irrelevant, and then they find a way to do it.
“We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.” ~ BHO
All in the game plan. Weaken our present forces and replace with a brown shirt force.
Out to destroy what was once a great Republic. Including the ‘white nationalist’. Those same ‘white nationalist’ who over the years/decades have shed much blood and given much to what has turned into an ungrateful nation.
So a military that started out as a force defending a white anglo-saxon protestant populace will now be cleansed of such people for showing any signs of supporting one of their own, and be replaced by anyone who doesnt look, act or speak like them. In other words, foreigners.
Democracy really worked good, huh?
Yes, the author is former military with an axe to grind...

“White nationalmism” is a trickkyass but clever concoction of the left.
Leftist globalists hate nationalists, who are generally just patriotic moderates. But when you put the word “white” before it, people infer it to mean white supremacy. See the trick? Nationalism is racism, without ever actually accusing it of such.
Tucker Carlson is right. The media and the swamp are going to push center-right moderates farther to the right with all this incendiary accusatory stuff. Just because 20% of the Trump supporters who were in DC on Jan.6 were veterans does NOT mean that they were there for violence, or riots. Most people that went their thought they would just be showing their support for Trump.
It is the left who are fomenting fear and hate.
“people infer it to mean white supremacy”
Which is exactly what the author of the piece did. Of course, they never say what they mean by “white supremacy” either.
meaning those who have served in the military were nearly three times more likely than non-veterans to have been involved, despite having taken an oath to defend the Constitution.
WTF kind of math is that?
20% were “veterans”
80% were NOT VETERANS...... where in the f*ck is Charlotte coming up with this “three times more likely” nonsense.
