[NYPOST] The Pentagon defended the military’s diversity and inclusion training programs amid a torrent of criticism, saying they are essential for recruiting the "right people" in its duty to defend the nation.
Pentagon front man John Kirby was asked during Tuesday’s briefing about GOP politicians creating sites urging whistleblowers in the armed services to expose progressive diversity training programs, some of which have reportedly deemed white people "inherently evil."
"We certainly respect the oversight that Congress provides. I’m not going to comment on any specific one initiative that members of Congress might be doing," Kirby said. "What I can speak to is what we’re really focused on here at the department and that’s defending the nation. And that means putting in place the right resources, the right strategies, the right operational concepts to do that, around the world."

.. that’s defending the nation.
You lost control of your own friggin southern border, you're not defending anything.
Men of the ranks are populated in great numbers by conservative Southerners. The 'defense' being undertaken is not of the nation, but of liberalism and socialism. Trump thinking must be purged from our institutions, to include the military.

I did 29 years dirst as an enlisted Marine (E6) and then as a commissioned Army officer (O6) between 1968 and 1998.
I’m ashamed of what is being done to the one institution that was largely above this crap. Seems that the signals are clear that the Republic was indeed too hard to keep for very long.
The seat of this Heart of Darkness is the Kalorama Kompound
and its minions writing Bidet’s script.

The Pentagon ought to be concerned with combat readiness and the ability to defeat the enemy and winning. You can talk all you want about "wokeness and diversity" but if you lose, it's game over.

This sort of meddling by pols and selling out by brass is very bad, for any military. And it's no way to treat soldiers, who are above shitty considerations of skin and religion.
#9
Pentagon defending the indefensible and refusing to prepare to defend the essential. Fire all the high level commanders and start over.

For decades, since the draft ended, the military has been a color neutral meritocracy, and it has worked very well. Often used as an example for the nation as a whole. So naturally they had to kill it.

This tells us all we need to know about these little monsters. They want complete, absolute, total power. Over every American institution.
Academia wasn't enough for them -- they took over Hollywood. Hollywood wasn't up for them – they had to take over professional sports.
Sports and entertainment weren't enough for them – they had to take over the entire media.
The media wasn't enough for them -- they went after the Fortune 500.
Corporations weren't enough for them – they had to take over the executive branch / Deep State.
The Deep State wasn't enough for them – they had to take over the US military.
At this point we either fight back and kill this tendency, or we will kiss our nation goodbye.
It's winter of '42, in Stalingrad. Destroy them or be destroyed.
Text messages obtained by DailyMail.com reveal Lunden Roberts was working at Hunter Biden's firm, Rosemont Seneca, when she became pregnant in late 2017
Roberts, 29, gave birth to Hunter's fourth child, Navy Joan Roberts, in August 2018 following a fling with the president's son around December 2017
Hunter, 51, initially denied paternity and in his memoir, Beautiful Things, claimed he had 'no recollection of our encounter'
'That's how little connection I had with anyone,' he wrote. 'I was a mess, but a mess I've taken responsibility for.'
But bombshell messages show Roberts was his employee and that Hunter made sure she was kicked off his company's health insurance plan after she gave birth
He also repeatedly ignored messages she sent to him regarding his unborn child, including pleas for help caring for the baby
The child's existence had remained a secret until May 2019 when Roberts, who is from Batesville, Arkansas, sued Hunter for child support

One couldn't make this stuff up. We are in a lot of trouble as a country. Maybe something will come of the State audits. Many in this country think the election was stolen by the Ds. Suppose it is shown that the election was stolen? What happens after that?
[NYPOST] "He’s randomly assaulting people. . . . What are we doing in society when we are releasing these people right back onto the street?" asked Police Commissioner Dermot Shea on Tuesday in the wake of Monday’s unprovoked assault of an Asian-American woman in Chinatown. "It’s craziness."
Cops say the alleged Chinatown attacker, Alexander Wright, lives in a homeless shelter and was arrested four times in the last year for similar random assaults. And he’s only the latest in a long line of dangerously troubled people that the city can’t or won’t treat.
Refusing to confront this mental-health crisis may be the worst failure of the de Blasio mayoralty.
The pattern is all too familiar to New Yorkers: The perpetrator is usually an unstable homeless person with an escalating history of bizarre, dangerous behaviors. Here’s a partial list of the horrors:
Last Friday, another homeless man allegedly pushed another Asian woman, 65, down a flight of stairs at a Midtown subway station. The suspect (John Chappell, 64) was busted last December in the unprovoked assault of woman waiting for the R at the Herald Square station. He had 77 prior arrests then but got a simple desk-appearance ticket.
In January, a deranged man shoved a commuter into a moving train at the Lexington Avenue/59th Street station.
Just two weeks in February saw more than a dozen attacks, including a number of subway slashings, a Bronx woman shoved onto the tracks and a bus operator struck with a 2-by-4.
In early May, a Harlem man was shoved to the tracks in an unprovoked attack at the 135th Street/Lenox Avenue subway station.
On May 23, four people, including a cop, were attacked in two separate incidents — where one attacker wielded a hammer and the other had to be sedated — in the subway.
A few days later, a mumbling vagrant shoved a 36-year-old Asian man in front of an oncoming F train in Queens.
Yet Mayor Comrade Bill de Blasio ...cryptocommie mayor of New York and for some reason a Dem candidate for president in 2020. Corrupt and incompetent, his qualifications for office seem to consist of being married to a black woman, with whom he honeymooned in Cuba. He has a preppy-looking son named Dante, whose Divine Comedy involved getting his back hair up when a police car drove past him slowly. New Yorkers voted for him, so they deserve him... continues to turn a blind eye to the problem. Asked last October how he planned to address the city’s mentally ill homeless problem, the mayor droned on about New Yorkers disturbed during the pandemic turning to his wife’s scattershot $1.25 billion ThriveNYC program — which focuses not on this kind of issue, but on lesser issues such as depression.

De Blasio needs to face the growing wave of assaults by regular citizens, who know you are anti american communist

Critical Theory: they're the oppressed, and the people of New York are the oppressors. Haven't they suffered enough already? They don't need to be locked up.

There are two modes in which a dangerously insane person can prey upon the innocent: In an urban setting, where they can move about essentially at will, for the most part ignored. Or, in a desolate countryside where the locals know ol' Ed (thinking Ed Gein here) is a strange guy who keeps to himself and is mostly left alone.

Is it a 'growing wave of assaults', or reporting?
A growing wave by the same people repeatedly attacking others after being repeatedly returned to the streets without bail, whereas before they were locked up upon arrest and then for some period after conviction. This is the result of the war against the Normies by the billionaire-funded Progressive Democrats who took over the district attorneys offices.

America was a Judeo-Christian country with gun ownership. When you remove Judeo-Christian from any country you have excessive violence, guns or no guns.
[NYPOST] Republican politicians blamed Gov. Andrew Sonny Cuomo ...Dem dynastic governor of Noo Yawk, the son and heir of the late Mario Cuoma and formerly married to a Kennedy. Acclaimed for his leadership during the COVID epidemic, he managed the nation's highest corpse count while successfully hiding the returns and writing a book praising himself. Among the nation's horniest politicians, he has about a dozen allegations of sexual harrassment and groping against him. Noo Yawk's politix being what they are, he is still hanging tough, waiting to ride it out.... for "lighting the match" that has triggered a recent spike in crime by signing criminal justice reforms championed by Democrats, including bail reform.
"The governor said the three biggest issues facing New York City, this is Governor Cuomo: crime, crime and crime," seethed Senate Minority Leader Rob Ortt (R-Lockport) during an Albany presser Tuesday, repeating the governor, who declared a full pandemic recovery is impossible without cleaning up the streets and subways.
"Ironically, he apparently doesn’t know what the solution is or is unaware of why that is happening. It’s happening because of laws that he signed," he added, pointing to changes to the bail system made over the last several years.
"Where did the smoke come from? Governor Cuomo... you lit the match," added state Sen. Dan Stec (R-Queensbury).
Within the last few months the state has seen several violent mostly peaceful attacks on the New York City subway system, shootings in well-traveled pedestrian areas like Times Square and a rise in hate crimes.
Senate Republicans unveiled a package of bills that would tighten up review of the state parole board, the latest rollout of their pro-law enforcement agenda.
One measure would permit victim impact statements to be submitted as video recordings to the entire three-person board. Under the current system, crime victims or family members who lost loved ones and oppose granting parole to an inmate typically appeal to just one panel member.
But Democratic leaders like Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie have said legislation that would expedite the parole process for incarcerated individuals remains a top priority with less than two weeks until session ends on June 10.
One "elder parole" measure would make it easier for inmates ages 55 and older who have been in prison at least 15 years to gain parole.
Another called the "less is more act" would strip non-criminal, technical violations — like being late or missing an appointment with a parole officer — from being a reason to mar an individual’s record.
Criminal justice reform advocates are pushing to pass the "clean slate bill" that would seal and expunge old convictions for individuals who have completed their sentences, while another measure would end qualified immunity privileges for members of law enforcement. It would amend the state’s civil rights law, that critics argue currently protects officers from lawsuits.

A MONKEY peed in CUOMO's hat as a result, Gov C doesn't smell any of the FILTH that surrounds him...

[NYPOST] Donald Trump ...dictatorial for repealing some (but not all) of the diktats of his predecessor, misogynistic because he likes pretty girls, homophobic because he doesn't think gender bending should be mandatory, truly a man for all seasons...... Jr. accused New York Attorney General Letitia James Tuesday of leading a "political persecution" against his father, former President Donald Trump, with her office’s investigation of the Trump Organization.
"I think it’s a political persecution, and I know that because she literally campaigned on it," the 45th president’s eldest son told Fox News’ "Tucker Carlson Tonight", referring to James’ 2018 campaign to be elected state AG. "She was going to investigate the crimes. The problem is, it wasn’t as though she was a part of this office. She had no idea.
"But in New York, it’s OK to try to persecute your political enemies, to try to target them, to try to hurt them, and they’ve been doing that for over five years," Trump Jr. added. "So five years, no actual crime. They’re in search of a crime. They’ve been trying to investigate, to create a crime, because that’s what you’re doing in New York. Again, shouldn’t surprise us anymore, but if this was going on in a banana republic, we’d be outraged."
James’ office revealed on May 15 that its investigation of the Trump Organization was being conducted "in a criminal capacity, along with the Manhattan DA."

Interesting to see if 42 USC 1983 Malicious Prosecution is filed or not.
But unless New York Attorney General Letitia James and/or the AG staff can be proven to have falsified documents, or lead a political Witch Hunt with the goal of False imprisonment or actions resulting in the violation of Civil Rights.
It seems the most that will happen is the case will be tossed.

The main issue is and always has been whether a prosecution of Trump will help her win the gubernatorial primary next year.

She's been in office 2 1/2 years and still hasn't filed charges against Trump, which means she has nothing.
Agree with Frank G - she should be disbarred, or at least have to face the Board of Bar Overseers (which would promptly broom the case because they're all Democrats, and it's Trump).
[NYPOST] Mayoral hopeful Kathryn Garcia fired back at rival Andrew Yang ...Former 2020 Democratic presidential candidate. Unlike most of the other Dem 2020 candidates, he actually did things besides politix in his adult life, which made him political poison. He worked in startups and early-stage growth companies as a founder or executive from 2000 to 2009. After he founded Venture for America, the Obama administration selected him in 2012 as a Champion of Change and in 2015 as a Presidential Ambassador for Global Entrepreneurship. His signature campaign policy is what he calls the Freedom Dividend, a form of Universal Basic Income for every American over 18. Yang believes UBI is a necessary response to the rapid development of automation that is leading to workforce challenges. The other two central elements of Yang's platform are Medicare for All and Human-Centered Capitalism.... on Wednesday morning after he blamed her for the Big Apple’s filthy streets, ripping him as clueless about city government.
"Andrew is a lovely guy, but this is a hard job, and requires you to really understand how government works, how labor unions work, how the budget works," Garcia said on MSNBC’s "Morning Joe" ahead of the first in-person debate of the race tonight. "You don’t want anyone looking for the light switch."
Garcia — whom Yang recently blamed for often-trashy city streets — defended her record as sanitation commissioner under Mayor Comrade Bill de Blasio ...cryptocommie mayor of New York and for some reason a Dem candidate for president in 2020. Corrupt and incompetent, his qualifications for office seem to consist of being married to a black woman, with whom he honeymooned in Cuba. He has a preppy-looking son named Dante, whose Divine Comedy involved getting his back hair up when a police car drove past him slowly. New Yorkers voted for him, so they deserve him... "I had left the department when we took a $100 million budget cut, and that had an immediate impact on the cleanliness of this city. I saw that, I tried to raise the red flag, it didn’t happen, and I left," she said on MSNBC.

Not really. All you need to know is how it should work and how to keep people from making it work any other way.
