Josh Hawley: Milley, Austin need to prepare US troops for real wars, not culture wars
2021-11-06
[FOXNEWS] U.S. Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, reacted Thursday night on "The Ingraham Angle" to news that U.S. troops had been badly beaten by their British counterparts while both groups underwent a training exercise in Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,.

Hawley suggested the incident exemplified misplaced priorities in the U.S. military under the Biden administration, the guys that caused the debacle in Afghanistan
...the pack of self-imagined masterminds of strategy and intrigue at the service of the Biden Crime Family and a grateful nation...
— and worried that China might draw some conclusions about U.S. war readiness.

U.S. SEN. JOSH HAWLEY, R-MO.: They’re [China] probably wondering why it is that people like General Milley and Secretary Austin spend so much time recommending books on White rage, on Critical Race Theory

...teaches that skin color is the most important characteristic of any person, which translates to separate but equal with a different bunch in charge. All whites and Asians are born racist and racism permeates every aspect of society, which should be dismantled and the remains turned over to the kind of dipshit who pushes this nonsense...
and are not more focused on war-fighting.

Here’s my view .... We’ve got the best soldiers, airmen, Marines in the entire world. Our soldiers are amazing war fighters. Let them fight. Train them to fight. Let them do what they do best — and stop using the military as a giant social experiment, which is what the left seems to want.

#6  The primary mission of the armed forces is to protect the security of the homeland. What's happening on the southern border says you have failed.

#5  But now the US Marines say that 'winners' are never determined and the training exercises, which do not provide an opportunity to 'surrender,' 'keep score,' or 'reset', are merely intended to 'heighten unit performance and increase readiness'.

We are all now 'lab animals' and human tissue/organ donors. Geo Orwell would be astounded.

#1  From this date forward, please consider Josh Hawley as a potential candidate for Vice President of the United States in 2024.

U.S. Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee.

stop using the military as a giant social experiment


We have a volunteer military, our American Citizens (and a limited number of foreign nationals) having stepped forward, to defend this Nation in times of War & Peace, deserve being treated with Respect, not Lab Animals, in a Giant Medical, Social, or Cultural Experiment under the egregious edicts of the clearly progressive, Socialist government masked as "Democrats" of the 20th Century Tradition.

May the Republic withstand the assaults' of this false government. Amen
