The leading official who presided over the U.S. Naval Academy’s use of racist affirmative action admissions policies is being replaced, the Pentagon announced on Friday. According to a Defense Department press release, Marine Corps Lt. Gen. Michael J. Borgschulte has been nominated to replace Navy Vice Adm. Yvette Davids as the superintendent of the renowned military school. Davids — who was nominated to her now-former position by President Joe Biden — has since been reassigned to be the deputy chief of Naval Operations for Operations, Plans, Strategy, and Warfighting Development.

She cannot be court-marshalled for following legal orders and DEI while probably unconstitutional policy probably didn't constitute illegal orders. That being true her reassignment is nonetheless appropriate - our future military command needs qualified men and women. But I'd be interested to know what experience in service qualifies her for warfare operations and development. Oh! I get it - fighting against heterosexual white men. Okay then.

What a pathetic looking sight, weakness in a uniform. She’s a disgrace, an embarrassment and a slap in the face of the true men and women in uniform who serve and to those who have bravely served with honor.

Per #4, see the photo. Her shoulder boards are wider than her shoulders. And while the male combo cover never looked good on a female, hers is 2 sizes too large to apparently accommodate her hair. Yeah, she oozes leadership and would really inspire others to follow her into battle. "At no time are race, sex, or ethnicity considered in the qualification of a candidate and there are no associated demographic goals or objectives.” - an absolute lie if ever there was one.

Of all the services, the Marine Corps has resisted the DEI programs more than the others. My bet is that Lt. Gen. Michael J. Borgschulte, United States Marine Corps will quickly restore a military-based philosophy to the United States Naval Academy. We need to have our future naval officer corps properly oriented--not polluted.

How about this, just remove women from all combat roles in the military? Then go back to WACs, WAVEs, WAFs letting each be commanded by women. Finally, do what should have been done back in 1979, which is to set up a women's military academy letting all branches draw from that unit. It would have been done that way were it not for a bunch of sonless 4-Stars who pushed for the perversion of our entire Military away from being male-centric, in order that their precious progeny could have ALL the advantages that they had had in their careers. While they did end up getting their precious princesses advanced to flag rank, the resultant effect was an effeminized majority male force, whose male commanders are afraid of their own shadows for fear of 'gender discrimination', and female service members suffering large-scale sexual abuse. Putting women in close proximity to men has a deleterious effect on morale and unit performance. We need to stop the madness, now.

#16,17, and 18: you can read her official bio at https://www.navy.mil/Leadership/Flag-Officer-Biographies/BioDisplay/Article/2236396/vice-admiral-yvette-davids/ Looks like she has commanded several surface ships (including an Aegis class [CG] cruiser), and later commanded the Nimitz Strike Group (big time command position). Bio says she participated in Desert Shield/Storm, Operation Iraqi freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. An interesting data point: "She is the 2008 recipient of the MANA National Latina Organization’s 'Las Primeras' award as the first Hispanic female to command a warship in the U.S. Navy." I'll leave it up to you readers to draw your own conclusions.

Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) vowed that President Trump’s threats to primary him will “backfire tremendously” and ultimately lead to Republicans losing their House majority in the 2026 midterms. “Well, they’ve spent $1.8 million against me so far in my congressional district. I think it has had very little effect, but they are trying to beat up on me to keep everyone else in line here and I think it is not working. I think what’s going to happen, this will be a referendum on whether the executive branch controls the legislative branch,” Massie said during a Tuesday interview with NBC News.

Ukrainian lawmakers have approved a tightening of restrictions on two crucial anti-corruption agencies, heightening concerns over the country's commitment to rooting out deep-seated graft. A total of 263 deputies in the 450-seat Verkhovna Rada voted in favor of a law that limits the independence of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) and the Specialized Anticorruption Prosecutor's Office (SAPO). The law, brought forward by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's the Servant of the People Party, makes the Prosecutor-General the de facto head of SAPO, effectively stripping the agency's chief of their authority. It also allows the Prosecutor-General to unilaterally close cases involving top officials and lets the Prosecutor General reassign

Federal judge James Boasberg advised Chief Justice John Roberts and some two dozen other judges that his D.C. colleagues were “concern[ed] that the Administration would disregard rulings of federal courts leading to a constitutional crisis,” according to a memorandum obtained exclusively by The Federalist. That Judge Boasberg and his fellow D.C. District Court judges would discuss how a named Defendant in numerous pending lawsuits might respond to an adverse ruling is shocking. Equally outrageous is those judges’ clear disregard for the presumption of regularity — a presumption that requires a court to presume public officials properly discharged their official duties.

In a statement, Newsom said: The women and men of the California National Guard deserve more than to continue serving as puppets in Trump and Stephen Miller’s performative political theater. There was never a need for the military to deploy against civilians in Los Angeles. The damage is done, however. We, again, call upon them to do the right thing and end the militarization once and for all.

Hunter Biden really walked smack into it when he “crashed out” during a YouTube interview with Andrew Callaghan that was released today. Now, when you look at the data, Hunter is of course completely wrong: statistically, whites commit the fewest crimes…by far. And, if you were to remove all the blacks and Hispanics included in those “white” crime statistics, that number no doubt falls drastically. However, in one sense, Hunter is right on the money: White men are significantly more likely to commit a crime…if you’re a white man like a Biden. If you’re a “white man” with the last name Biden,
