Today I'm creating a new, internal “Defense Board on Diversity & Inclusion in the Military,” which will conduct a 6-month sprint to develop concrete, actionable recommendations to increase racial diversity & ensure equal opportunity across all ranks & in the officer corps.

I think Ivanka is doing the same thing.

How about Esper forms new BLM units, and they are the only ones with ammunition?

We are SO F%CKED!

I can believe that. The GOPe of the Senate effectively controls all of Trump’s key appointments.

And McConnell makes sure that the Senate *never* goes into recess, preventing Trump from making recess appointments.

If Trump wanted to replace Wray with, say, General Flynn, the Senate would shoot Flynn down.

The Senate is hopelessly corrupt.

Will the head of this board be titled “Commissar General”?.

Better question on Esper is who keeps pushing one K street loser after another in the WH. These bozo's are now being carefully scripted on how to respond to DJT so they can get in the door. DC and professional types everywhere are against Trump because of what he looks like and how he sounds. That sounds silly but it is true. Military officers are among the worst for this. The culture now reminds one of the French army before 1940. A glacial and congealed management culture obsessed with tinker at the margins and virtue signaling for career advancement. Many tradition heroic types such as Le May or Halsey would never advance beyond Colonel or Navy Captain if that in the public relations obsessed administrate dysfunction of DC.

I continue to suspect that Javanka has been at the bottom of placing K street types in key but unobtrusive positions in the WH to ‘help dad’ .

Socialism is Legal Plunder - Frederic Bastiat “The Law”

Modern society is hypnotized by socialism. It is prevented by socialism from seeing the mortal danger it is in. And one of the greatest dangers of all is that you have lost all sense of danger, you cannot even see where it’s coming from as it moves swiftly towards you. - Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

“... and in the officer corps”
The Rank and File are not important, what matters is capturing those at the top and in command. Then the whole oufit becomes corrupted. You can see the results of that in the way the police react to the “protests”.
Same here in the UK; in fact it was amazing the speed with which the police here were corrupted and captured. As a policeman was quoted in recent days, “We are simply punchbags.”

His job is to create the most vicious fighting force possible. To heck with political correctness.

If I was fighting in the Middle East, I certainly wouldn’t want a fighting unit full of muslims from the Middle East. Whose back would they have? Diversity = division.

Sounds like Esper wants to cede the US military to BLM. He should be fired NOW before he can sabotage Trump’s reelection from within. Let him sit and stew with cranky old farts Mattis and Kelly. Their disloyalty will be obvious and sickening to Real Americans.

As someone with 20 years experience in the Military there was a time when I would say the Military was the greatest Meritocracy in this country. You rose or sank on your own merits.

Like everything else in America this has been slowly attacked and chipped away.

Affirmative Action in Retail, Service Industries, and Manufacturing result in decreased productivity and customer satisfaction.

Affirmative Action in the Military results in Dead Americans.
