The way it looks to me is that the enemy, whomever that will be, will roll right over us. Thank God for rednecks and partisans.

Ive become pretty radical on what has happened to the military and specifically the US Navy that I so proudly served. This can be traced all the way back to Patricia Schroeder and her feminist need to see women serving in the military, no matter the cost.
I had the pleasure of serving out at see with an all male crew. I thank god we didn’t have any women serving with us then because since i got off my ship in 93 shipmates that i kept in touch with kept me up to date on what a cluster F its been since. Feminism and Wokeness will destroy our military and ultimately our country. The only thing that will bring us back from this precipice will be civil war and/or china attacking us. We will eventually be slapped with the folly of allowing women to serve in combat roles.

The U.S. was never designed to have a large standing military. The top-down bureaucracy required for such a monstrosity to function is the antithesis of what this country was supposed to be all about.

In many respects, the defense budget has become essentially “middle class welfare”.
Both the employment of military personnel, and the equipment that sustains it.

Yes. How true that is. Hope all is well with you, AW.

Things seem to becoming a bit unwound these days.

My son just enlisted in the Navy about 10 months ago, and he’s seeing it too. Me, I got about 7 months until I reach my 30 years of combined military/federal service, then I’m out.

Yes. This weaponization of the organs of government against their political opponents and the citizenry.

This intentional destruction of the Energy sector.

This new bill which doubles the IRS budget and hires 87,000 new IRS agents. Half of that $11 billion additional budget a year for enforcement.

The raid on Trump’s home.

They are clearly coming for us.

I will pray.
