Fagan currently serves as the No 2. in the US Coast Guard, a role she's held since June 2021.

Her nomination will be under consideration by the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation.

If an actual woman who has done well rather than being politically promoted, then good for her. Otherwise, nope.

IF…. I’m sure there was some push along the lines.

So you posted to generate hate? At least you admitted it this time.

If she’s qualified what’s the problem? Unfortunately Democrats, and in particular this idiot president, put people in positions based on skin color, gender identity, yada, yada, yada.

So she’s probably not even qualified.

Yeah, she does have a rather manly face, but Wikipedia says her maiden name is Keene and she’s married to John Fagan, two adult children.

I hear the Coast Guard only hires 7-foot tall recruits. So that they’ll never drown when on duty.

Oh the person is qualified all right. Gotta get the check boxes. That is what counts.

That is what counts as qualification.

Yeah. I had the same impression when I saw the thread. This person takes issue with me every time I point out women should not be in combat roles or positions.

Some people just worship the fable that female soldiers are overall just as physically capable as male soldiers, and hey, there are only going to be push-button wars in the future.

And to push this stupidity, they are all for walking in lockstep with Leftists who are all too snickeringly happy to have more useful idiots walk in lockstep with them to accomplish their goals.

And those goals have nothing to do with the strengthening of the military, but to advance an ideological goal.

It's not just the fact that women are smaller and have lesser athletic ability - women's and men's brains work differently. Men think linearly and react faster - and usually work towards an object directly. We tend to be a blunt instrument. Women think more abstractly and take longer and generally require more input to reach decisions.

I had to work for a particular female Marine general who held the longest meetings known to mankind and didn't relate to, or even like the issues involving the combat arms - which was a critical part of our mission at that time. 3-hour meetings and I thought my kidneys would detonate.

She was soon "booted upstairs" to be part of a disgraceful race to name the first female 3-star.

And we're not even talking about the insurmountable issues of mixing females and males in combat situations...
