The commandant of the U.S. Coast Guard tried Tuesday to assure skeptical and frustrated U.S. senators that she is not attempting to cover up the branch's failure to adequately handle cases of sexual assault and harassment at the service academy in Connecticut.

Admiral Linda L. Fagan said she is committed to “transparency and accountability” within the Coast Guard and is trying to cooperate with congressional investigations and provide requested documents while also abiding by the constraints of an ongoing Office of Inspector General investigation and victim privacy concerns.

“This is not a cover-up. I am committed to providing documents in good faith,” she told the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations during a 90-minute hearing in Washington. “This is an incredible organization ... I am committed to bringing the organization forward and making the culture change necessary."

Is it assault and harassment by those who must not be named?

[MinorityRepublican]

I don’t know enough on specific cases but it’s clear that there’s no place for women in the military and it’s stupid that we are trying to be woke. We cannot change human nature.

How much you want to bet the documents are redacted because the truth involves same sex violence and transvestites.

What do you mean?

I disagree, there is room for females in the military. In the medical, office, supply, food prep. Any non-combat position. If they can receive combat or hazardous duty pay they should be disqualified for the position.

The truth is hidden by those who refuse to see it. Don't argue because you knew someone or heard of someone who beat overwhelming odds, that's not a viable argument.

That's equivalent to going to a bank and asking for a loan to buy a new Lamborghini because you're going to win the lottery, because some guy won it last month. On the belief all guys are equal and will win the lottery next week. Now gimme the loan.

yes that's the reasoning behind women believing they can do anything a man can.

Heck women can't even beat a man in a beauty contest!!!!
