America’s woke Army is facing a recruiting nightmare

Original Article

“Suppose they gave a war and no one came.” That was a slogan of the 1960s anti-war movement. Now it’s becoming a reality, at least for the United States Army, as recruiting woes mount. The problem is a simple one: Not enough people want to be soldiers — and with reason. The Army’s No. 2 officer told Congress Tuesday that the service has no choice but to reduce total force strength by 10,000 for the fiscal year starting in September, with the next year looking even bleaker: By the end of fiscal 2023, it could be up to 28,000 soldiers short of its 476,000-troop target.

Very simple. If there were more pregnancy flight suits - - then more pregnant men could become pilots. Why can I think of these things - - while none of the "experts" can?

'They' have always relied on we the poor class to submit and do the bidding of the wealthy. That was the nature in feudal times that 'they' dearly wish to return. We will own nothing and like it. We will send our first born into service to please our betters. I am a proud veteran. What I believed I was defending was a lie. I would not recommend a life in the service until there is something for all of us.

I wasn't Army, I was Air Force. But the woke BS from '81 to '01 was almost more than mortal flesh could bear. I cant even imagine what those poor guys are going through now. We still have the pointless, endless international entanglements, and now you have to worry about getting court martialed for the wrong pronoun, and the experimental shots. I would not encourage any young person to join any branch nowadays.

During my 7 years in the USAF, I served under presidents JFK and LBJ. I considered myself a Republican, although I wasn't old enough to vote until 1964. But I respected JFK for his handling of the Cuban missile crisis, and though I despised LBJ politically, he was my president at the time and I at least respected him for the office. I served under generals Earle Wheeler and Maxwell Taylor as Joint Chief of Staff and I never had or heard a disrespectful thought about either. Today is another world, at least since January 20, 2021. Today, if young again, I wouldn't consider the military. A CINC apparently focused on destroying the country as fast as possible and a "woke" Joint Chief dedicated into turning the military into a bunch of "'politically correct" precious snowflakes forced to accept the China Virus Jab or be drummed out of the service in "official"disgrace. Anyone joining the service under the current situation should have his or her head bored for the simples!

The Pentagon needs to be completely cleared out. I support the enlisted men, but the officer corps is hopelessly corrupt as a whole and needs to be scrapped. Any officer who followed Woke orders or Climate Fraud needs to be cashiered.

Hey, ladies, here's another opportunity for you. It appears that American males are done with being discounted in education and adult employment, including the military. Both are suffering a loss of male engagement. It's all yours, sweetie pies. And in the meantime, people get wound up over some tranny winning meaningless medals instead of the girls. Our sons are getting screwed far worse...and that's EQUALITY we can live with?

Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry, a Republican, said this week that cities that do not enforce the state’s pro-life abortion laws will have their funding withheld. Landry’s announcement came as a judge blocked the state’s abortion trigger law once again. The law, as Townhall covered, bans most abortions. The law has been blocked before as abortion providers and advocates challenge it in court. Gov. John Bel Edwards, who is a pro-life Democrat, supports the legislation. If the law goes back into effect, officials in New Orleans have said they will not enforce it.

A federal judge has temporarily blocked the Biden administration’s Title IX guidance on gender identity and sexual orientation.

The administration’s guidance effectively forced states to allow biological males to use girls restrooms, forbade states from barring males from participating in female sports, and forced employers

During a virtual meet & greet on Monday, Wild said the Republican voters of Carbon County may need to be educated on the error of their ways. "Carbon County has many attributes, but it is a county that – although it was once an Obama county – it since has become a Trump county," she said.

The disgruntled economist actually conceded that Biden’s irresponsible $1.9 trillion stimulus package was inflationary, despite his earlier objections to the contrary.

"The members of the VP detail at this time were starting to fear for their own lives. There was a lot of yelling, a lot of very personal calls over the radio, so it was disturbing.
