This from a hawkish friend who is a fellow memo reader, He describes how  insidious issues are allowed to creep into a functioning institution, create controversy and destroy from within.  Rather than worry about 1/6 transgender participants I would clean house at The Pentagon of the current lunatics running the military and most particularly Milley. Send him over to China where he would be far more comfortable and at home.  

Or simply read the second article by Victor Davis Hanson who describes what we have allowed elitist progressives and radical Democrats already accomplished. They have destroyed a once proud and unique republic all in the name of equity because of past sins.

An Elitist President Wilson inoculated America with it's first dose of socialism and drip, drip, drip began the process that led to what Hanson has described - the end of a republic that stood for some 200 plus years and was brought down in Obama's two terms and continues, to this very day, with the vicious nonsense of a current and apparently corrupt president.

We have only ourselves to blame because:  "when all else failed we lowered our standards: and did not take to heart Franklin's warning and Obama's successful desire to transform America.

Transgenders in the Military 

By Robert Dotton

In February 2021, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin called for a day long “stand down” so the Military could search for “racists and extremist” in the ranks.  In less than the two terms of Obama and now Biden our 200 plus years as a republic has been brought to it's knees.

Was he looking for Antifa, nope, was he looking for BLM nope, how about Isis, nope, certainly he was looking for Muslim extremist like Major Hasan who killed 13 and wounded 30 at Fort Bragg, nope, he was looking for soldiers  who went to the January 6th "riot" presumably, if they were there, that’s enough for them to be considered a  “racists and extremist”. General  Milley even testified to Congress that he felt it necessary to find out about the participants on January 6th. Out of 2 million troops they found a hundred that were “suspect”.  Probably they were “extremist” who thought the election was stolen.  I assume they were discharged.

Also the Military is now finding ways to accommodate “transgender” soldiers based on who they think they are.  And they’re teaching “Critical Race Theory” as part of military training.  Currently there are 14,000 “transgender” soldiers.  The Military has promised to “accommodate” – including paying for “gender surgery” if they want it.

Here's my question, the Military discharged 60,000, who refused to take the Covid vaccine, but somehow they’ve found a way to “accommodate” transgender soldiers.  Just how does that “accommodation” work.  If a Transgender man thinks he’s a woman, does he sleep in women’s barracks, does he shower with the Women.  Does a Transgender woman whose thinks she’s a man sleep in men’s barracks and shower with the Men?

Here's my solution; any soldier who declares he/she are “Transgender” gets a General Discharge from the military.  Further, any one claiming to be Transgender who wishes to join the Military will be turned away just as is done with any applicant with weight or medical conditions that preclude him/her from meeting military standards

Austin, Milley and the rest of their like minded  “woke” senior officers should resign, retire, or be fired, they are destroying our military from the inside.

 The military needs Generals who are war fighters and understand that their job – their only job -- is to build the best war fighting machine on the Planet.  They don’t need to know or care about the politics  of  their soldiers – and if a soldier is mentally “confused” about whether they’re a man or a woman they need to leave the Military and deal with it somewhere else.

If You Really Wanted to Destroy US, You’d Do These 10 Things

Victor Davis Hanson / @VDHanson 

If someone wanted to destroy America as we know it, the first thing to do would be to rob us of our energy independence, historian Victor Davis Hanson writes.

 Obama blocked the pipeline, claiming without evidence,  it would harm the fight against climate change. He made no mention of the adverse impact the cancellation would have on the country's energy independence. 

COMMENTARY BY Victor Davis Hanson @VDHanson

Victor Davis Hanson is a classicist and historian at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University, and author of the book "The Second World Wars: How the First Global Conflict Was Fought and Won." You can reach him by e-mailing authorvdh@gmail.com.

First, you would surrender our prior energy independence.

Reduce new gas and oil leases on federal lands to the lowest levels of any president in history. Cut back production at precisely the time the world is emerging from a two-year lockdown with pent-up consumer demand.

Make war on coal and nuclear power. Drain the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to make the pain for consumers more bearable for midterm election advantage.

Cancel the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge oil and gas field. Block pipelines like the Keystone XL oil pipeline and the Constitution natural gas line.

Overregulate and demonize frackers and horizontal drillers. Ensure there is less investment for their exploration and production.

Make use of internal combustible engines or fossil fuel power generation prohibitively expensive. Achieve a green oil-dependency along the lines of contemporary Europe.

Second, print trillions of dollars in new currency as the lockdowns end, demand rises, and consumers are already saturated with COVID-19 subsidies. Keep interest rates low, well below the rate of inflation, as you print more money. Ensure that passbook holders earn no interest at the very time prices skyrocket to the highest per-annum level in 40 years.

“Spread the wealth” by sending money to those who already have enough, while making it less valuable for those deemed to have too much. Ensure runaway high prices to wean the middle class off its consumerism and supposedly to inspire them to buy less junk they don’t need. Damn the rich in the open and in the abstract, court them in the concrete and secret of darkness.

Third, end America’s physical boundaries. Render it an amorphous people and anywhere space. End any vestigial difference between a citizen and resident. Up the current nearly 50 million who were not born in the United States—27% of California’s population—to 100 million and more by allowing 3 million illegal aliens to enter per year.

Fourth, destroy the public trust in its elections. Render Election Day irrelevant. Make proper auditing of 110 million mail-in/early ballots impossible. Normalize ballot harvesting and curing.

Urge leftist billionaires to infuse their riches to “absorb” the work of state registrars in key precincts to ensure the correct “turnout.”

Blast as “election denialists,” “insurrectionists,” and “democracy destroyers” anyone who objects to these radical ballot changes, neither passed by the U.S. Congress, nor by state legislators. Weaponize the FBI, CIA, and Department of Justice.

Fifth, redefine crime as one rich man’s crime, another poor man’s necessity.

Let those who need “things” exercise their entitlement to them. Rewrite or ignore laws to exempt the oppressed who take, or do, what they want as atonement for past systemic racism and oppression.

Six, junk the ossified idea of a melting pot and multiracial society united by common American values and ideals. Instead, identify individuals by their superficial appearance. Seek to be a victim and monetize your claims against perceived victimizers. Call anyone who resists a “racist.”

Encourage each tribe, defined by common race, ethnic, gender, or sexual orientation affinities, to band together to oppose the monolithic “white privilege” majority. Encourage social and tribal tensions. Racially discriminate to end discrimination.

Greenlight statue toppling, name changing, boycotting, cancel culturing, ostracizing, and Trotskyizing. Erase the past, control the present, and create a new American person for the future.

Seven, render the United States just one of many nations abroad. Abandon Afghanistan in shame. Leave behind thousands of loyal Afghan allies, billions of dollars in equipment, a billion-dollar embassy, and the largest air base in central Asia. Appease the theocracy to reenter the Iran nuclear deal.

Beg enemies like Venezuela, Russia, and Iran to pump more oil when it is politically expedient for us to have abundant supplies—oil that we have in abundance but won’t produce. Discourage friends like Guinea from producing more energy and cancel allies’ energy projects like the EastMed pipeline.

Trash but then beg Saudi Arabia to pump more oil right before the midterms for domestic political advantage.

Eight, neuter the First Amendment. Enlist Silicon Valley monopolies to silence unwanted free speech while using Big Tech’s mega-profits to warp elections. Declare free expression “hate speech.” Criminalize contrarian social media.

Nine, demonize half the country as semi-fascists, un-Americans, insurrectionists, and even potential domestic terrorists. Try to change inconvenient ancient rules: seek to pack the court, end the filibuster, junk the Electoral College, and bring in two more states.

Twice impeach a president who tried to stand in your way. Try him when he is an emeritus president and private citizen. Raid his home. Seek to indict a future rival to the current president.

Ten, never mention the origins of the COVID-19 virus. Never blame China for the release of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Exempt investigations of U.S. health officials who subsidized Chinese gain-of-function research. Ignore the Bill of Rights to mandate vaccinations, mask-wearing, and quarantines.

We have done all of the above. It would be hard to imagine any planned agenda to destroy America that would have been as injurious as what we already suffered the past two years.
