The Woke Force: Biden Pentagon Pursues Leftist Domestic Agenda
breitbart ^ | 15 Feb 2021 | KRISTINA WONG

The Pentagon, in the three weeks that Joe Biden has been president, has turned the department’s attention from outside threats towards potential threats from inside the military.

Former President Trump’s first military priorities were to rebuild the military, defeat the Islamic State, and focus on the threat from China. Trump’s first military-related executive orders were to rebuild the armed forces and to establish new vetting measures to keep “radical Islamic terrorists” out of the U.S. — which critics panned as a “Muslim ban.”

President Biden, in contrast, has taken a number of actions to promote social justice inside the Pentagon. His first military-related executive order was to overturn Trump’s transgender policy. Biden chose retired Army Gen. Lloyd Austin as his defense secretary, the first African American to serve in that position. Austin vowed during his confirmation hearing to rid the military of racists and extremists and has ordered a department-wide stand-down for commanders to address extremism with troops.

On his first visit to the Pentagon as president last week, Biden spoke at length about upholding diversity in the military:

The final point I’d like to make is to give my personal commitment that this administration is dedicated to ensuring that every single person is treated with dignity and respect. That’s why we moved so quickly to overturn the discriminatory ban on transgender service. Every single person, no matter their gender identity, sexual orientation, race, or religious background, deserves to feel safe in the ranks and to have their contributions valued.

Austin has also directed the Pentagon to consider climate change in all war-game planning, risk assessments, and future defense strategy. He has also directed everyone on a Department of Defense property to wear masks. He also has fired everyone serving on a defense board in order to purge Trump appointed-members.

I truly hope that somebody is keeping a list of who is promulgating this b.s. at the Pentagon, so that when a conservative is POTUS again, they can be purged immediately.

I had a buddy who went to Iraq as an Equal Opportunity staff officer.

I asked him if it was his job to make sure the enemy fired as many bullets at the black Soldiers as they did at the white Soldiers.

The hollowing out of the military is in full force once again. No young person of good character and with worthy aspirations need apply for enlistment or commission with any branch of the armed services at this time, as it would then be a hostile work environment, and without an enemy soldier in sight.

Then again, the purpose of these newly redirected armed forces is not to be deployed against other nations, but against “domestic terrorists”.

Posse Comitatus act to the contrary.

Who would want to serve under such punitive circumstances?

When the time comes that the comfortable lives and financial interests of the elites are threatened by foreign forces just watch how quickly they change their tune when they need bodies to fight to protect them.

Slow Joe needs to take a look at the diversity in the military after he removes his head form where the sun doesn’t shine.
