The Department of Defense’s inspector general this month launched an investigation into whether the military is adequately screening recruits for “supremacist, extremist and criminal gang behavior,” in accordance with Pentagon policy and procedures.(Snip)The guidelines were announced about a year after some veterans and a handful of active-duty service members were found to have participated in the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol. Soon after taking office, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin ordered a “stand down” in the ranks so commanders could discuss what the Pentagon considers a rise in extremism in the armed forces. The new measures also seek to institute training for those leaving the service

I'm sure a lot of leftists have slipped by and falsely taken the oath.
They should definitely find and get rid of all America haters before something bad happens. Again. Like a religion of peacer shooting up a base.

Shouldn’t this probe begin with Lloyd Austin, Secretary of Woke Defense? Double dipping Lloyd is the embodiment of radical thought, and is turning our military into little more than CRT / BLM indoctrination units. Pentagon will soon be doubling and tripling the $50,000 enlistment bonus to attract unqualified recruits.
FJB, our alleged Commander in Chief and all those bootlicks whose names he can’t remember

Yeah, sure. Their definition of "extremists" are people who believe in the Constitution, and really mean it when they swear an oath to "protect the Constitution from all enemies, foreign and domestic.".
Since the domestic enemies are running the military these days, they are scared of patriots who believe in the Constitution.

Do they mean people like Major Nidal Hassan who murdered 13 fellow soldiers and wound 30 others in the name of radical Islam.? Nah. They mean conservative white men, including anyone who has ever criticized the present administration.

If you proudly wear a MAGA hat, fly an American flag from your pickup truck, own guns, a Bible, and go to church on Sunday, you are an extremist terroristic threat to this country.

My other nephew in the USMC will be getting out in about 9 months. He's had enough, like his brother who went in, and out, before him. USMC isn't what it used to be, even a couple of years ago.

Doesn't anyone remember all the gang bangers that joined for weapons training? The wheel is just turning.

The recent odd, even irrational, demands by the top leaders cause wonder if the, ''extremists,'' in charge are the problem.

Re: #15 - The leftward trajectory of our military, especially the USMC, is most tragic. As a young Navy Corpsman, I had the privilege of being called "doc" by the Marines with whom I served. This was at the tail end and immediate aftermath of Vietnam, when the military was being rapidly degraded materially, as well as spiritually. The Marines were the most constant aspect of our military during the post-Vietnam Jimmy Carter years. Under Reagan, the Marines were the first to shake off the Carter malaise. Obama and now Biden have brought morale and the attendant capability down to 1977-79 levels but unfortunately, they still have a ways to go before they hit rock bottom.

Those of us who WERE in the military are far more dangerous. We didn't hang out with sexually confused crybabies and pansy officers because we were there to kill people. Don't let Brandon know.

If the Billionaire's dreams of a new feudal age come true, the CCP will then no longer support them but move to invade and make their process of overturning the west complete. If, by that time the Billionaire's plan to neuter the American military is complete, the CCP thugs will walk over them just like Hitler's hordes did to the Russians in the beginning of WW2 in the east. Stalin had purged all the competent war fighters to serve his paranoia, leaving only useless suck-ups and toadies in charge. The result was a total rout . And that is what the demorats are attempting today.
We live in horrific times.

If you're not a confirmed Marxist who openly hates White people and Christians and traditional America, and supports ever-expanding degenerate cultural norms, then you're not welcome in the US armed forces. The obvious end game is to make sure no one will take up arms in defense of New America when the Pentagon's Chinese comrades come rolling in, although we're so far gone that a physical invasion wouldn't accomplish much. Maybe they think they'll be allowed to keep their medals and pensions, too stupid to know that useful idiots are always the first to be "retired" under such scenarios.
