The Pentagon official tasked with leading efforts to crack down on extremist views among military service members once asserted that backers of former President Donald Trump were also supporters of racism, misogyny and extremism.

The official, Bishop Garrison, is a senior adviser to Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and head of the Pentagon’s Countering Extremism Working Group. Garrison expressed his view in a series of tweets on July 27, 2019.

"Silence from our Congressional leaders is complicity," Garrison tweeted. "He is only going to get worse from here, & his party and its leadership are watching it happen while doing nothing to stop it. Support for him, a racist, is support for ALL his beliefs."

"He's dragging a lot of bad actors (misogynist, extremists, other racists) out into the light, normalizing their actions," he added. "If you support the President, you support that. There is no room for nuance with this. There is no more "but I'm not like that" talk."

Pentagon officials did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

I’m an old lady who will turn 74 in August. I’m proud to be called an extremist by a bunch of commie bastards.

I look for ‘stuggle sessions’ complete with placards in the very near future.

Meanwhile the commander of Space Force is thrown out for merely having the opinion that there seem to be a growing number of Marxists in the military. And it looks like he was correct.

Hows about them apples? Biden’s pentagon considers my whole family extremists. I would consider him an extremist for saying that.

This is word for word what I’d expect from a Patrisse Cullors, founder of BLM.

"ANC"

African National Congress?

Does that correspond with when Prez Hussien had the Muslim Brotherhood in his Cabinet?

GREAT...to know that the UGLY mob that they said I was part of on that frigid day...are extremists. Many races, ages, genders and categories, just wanted an honest election. I read in the Washington Post I was part of an UGLY MOB. They never did say that about BLACK LIVES MATTER now did they Bishop Garrison.

From Wiki:

“ In the military, a political commissar or political officer (or politruk, a portmanteau word from Russian: политический руководитель, pronounced politicheskiy rukovoditel, translated “political leader”, “political official”), is a supervisory officer responsible for the political education (ideology) and organization of the unit they are assigned to, this being intended to ensure civilian control of the military.”

Walks like a duck, quacks like a duck……
