President Biden told graduates of the U.S. Military Academy Saturday to stay true to their values as they face threats and turmoil across the globe.
“Hold fast to your values that you learned here at West Point,” Biden told the graduates.
He said they will have to uphold the oath they took on their first day at West Point. An oath taken to “not a political party, not to a president, but to the Constitution of the United States of America, against all enemies, foreign and domestic.”
No, he went to West Point too.
Seems like Presidents take an oath when being sworn in. I don’t think Joe Biden is holding fast.
Is that guy been promoted to general yet?
He’s teaching communism at a college in Austin Tx
The president always gives a speech at each of the four military school on a rotation. But hopefully still it doesn’t go lefty.
I’m hoping that is a Photoshop job.
Do West Point second lieutenants take the same oath of allegiance as I did after completing OCS in 1951??
I figured he was in the running for JCS
Is your niece’s husband currently in Colorado after graduating from West Point in New York or did you mean he graduated from the Air Force Academy?
Nope, it’s real. There was quite a bit of discussion a few years back when he graduated. Not sure of the exact timeframe.
This is from the Bee, right?
That’s really disgusting especially if nothing came out of it in form of court’s martial.

A lying licker of dog feces.

update from Richard York [many particulars about Rapone by York, who attended West Point with him] starts about 2/3 of the way down the linked article, goes for 17 paragraphs.
Rod Dreher writes - UPDATE: Read this comment from Richard York [very long and VERY informative]. Holy cow:
Nice caption, Rod.
My two cents on Spenser Rapone. I knew him slightly at the Academy and went on to serve with people who were with him in Afghanistan or instructed him during his Army education. He’s still a topic of conversation among junior Army officers in my generation, thanks to his flamboyant gestures in support of left-wing causes and the spectacular way in which his military career came to an end...
[17 paragraphs follow]
tidbit: Rapone most likely got into The Point because he was prior-enlisted Ranger combat veteran [75th Ranger Regiment in Afghanistan].
Support abortion vaccine or stay out. Leave your ethics conscience at the door.
He also told them he had an appointment to the Naval Academy but Roger Staubach was there at the time
Yeah, we know what an “oath keeper” Bribey is. He keeps his oath of treason to China and that’s about it.
