#4 Confirmed by the Senate in a unanimous vote. Who says Congress can't get bipartisan support?

#5 In the old Roman Republic, Senators accompanied the legions to the field. When a legion died, as sometimes happened, they died too. Early example of quality assurance. Just saying.

She is just another example who use technology without understanding how it is all made to work. In this case how military organizations actually work. In effect, the line people are just cannon fodder, replaceable and interchangeable.

#6 Yeah. I'll worry about military fambly dynasties in America right after I don't have to worry about political fambly dynasties in America anymore.

Hokay?

#8 What about a "Politician's Caste?"

#9 Bingo.

Wormouth? Are we trolling Tolkien at this point? Some Dollar General Rings of Power?

#10 And I bet we are all waiting with baited breath for her dream and the day the US Army goes carbon neutral. I mean, maybe it'll be for the better. After all, the Patriot missile batteries and Bradleys are said to be smoldering heaps of mangled metal in Ukraine.

#11 Ole Christine’s problem is that the “warrior caste” both future and present rejected her first. Her BS on the heels of the Afghanistan debacle destroyed the trust in the “establishment caste.”

#12 Army Secretary Christine Wormuth said she expects within weeks to begin drafting a proposal for a recruiting overhaul so sweeping that Congress might need to pass legislation to enact all of it.

That right there says to me she is starting the process of destroying the professional military, getting rid of those that oppose the political elite and making a Pretorian guard to round up any that oppose them with the military.

#13 These clowns can't even define an assault weapon, and they are defining what a warrior caste is?

This country/the West has simply gone mad. Again, a "Biden" admin hack steps on the accelerator as the US goes down further and faster in the decline and fall stage of the US.

#14 Political caste suddenly fearful of the warrior caste they command? Do tell.

#15 What she is doing is consistent with Marxism.

#16 The usual formulation in a marxist setup is the troops get fed better than everyone else, thus the loyalty. That isn't exactly the case here.

#17 #12 Actually the most shocking thing about that quote is that she actually is thinking about submitting it to Congress rather than just decreeing it on her own say-so.

#18 I wonder what the requirements will be for the DEI Officers to qualify for their warfare pin in the Navy and whether it will include a hammer and sickle.
