Douglas Andrews: The Military's 'Extremism' Hoax | The Patriot Post
Douglas Andrews: The Military's 'Extremism' Hoax | The Patriot Post link
- Contrary to the disgraceful claims of the Biden administration, the U.S. military isn’t a hotbed of “extremism.”
"Last year, according to Joint Chiefs Chairman Mark Milley, the U.S. military spent $1 million and 5.8 million man hours on programs meant to root out extremism, improve diversity, and prepare for the national security challenges of climate change.
That’s a lie, of course. Unless we’re paying our military personnel 17 cents per hour. In fact, the average hourly wage for our warriors works out to just under $21 per hour. So if we spent 5.8 million man hours rooting out extremism last year, then we spent somewhere around $122 million, not $1 million..."

"According to a court brief dated April 14 and filed in the Supreme Court, Biden’s administration has released more than 750,000 border-crossers into the United States since he assumed office.
"According to a court brief dated April 14 and filed in the Supreme Court, Biden’s administration has released more than 750,000 border-crossers into the United States since he assumed office.
That total is larger than the population of Boston, Mass., and represents just how much Biden’s DHS has put its Catch and Release mechanisms into overdrive."
Disney Exec Quits Following Florida Debacle After Three Months on the Job
Disney Exec Quits Following Florida Debacle After Three Months on the Job:
Geoff Morrell, Chief Corporate Affairs Officer at The Walt Disney Company, is calling it quits after just three months on the job during which Disney took significant hits for its embrace of woke ideologies and decision to vocally oppose a parental rights law in Florida where Walt Disney World is located. That showdown saw the Sunshine State's legislature pass a bill to strip Disney World of its special district status that allowed the park to enjoy autonomy since the 1960s.

"...Even as it appears electric car sales are hitting a tipping point, those living in apartments and condominiums around the nation can find it difficult, expensive or outright impossible to find a way to plug in when they’re at home.
With nearly 1 out of 3 households living in apartments or condominiums, the goal of switching to electric vehicles to fight climate change and save on gas becomes all the more challenging..."
Clay Higgins: DHS Chief Mayorkas Carrying Out 'Insidious Agenda' to Transform America with Illegal Immigration
Clay Higgins: DHS Chief Mayorkas Carrying Out 'Insidious Agenda' to Transform America with Illegal Immigration:
“We’ve lost our sovereignty down there [at the border],” Higgins said. “The nation has been generationally impacted. There’s no guarantee we can ever really recover.”
“They have effectively injured America to the extent of the collapse and open border … they have potentially injured America to the extent that we’ll have generational change that will be sort of a post-Biden reality of what America looks like because of what’s going on at the border,” He continued. “Mayorkas knows this and he’s like talking to a machine … he is quite focused as he delivers the insidious agenda and chosen lines and talking points of the Left.”
Imagine the media response if she worked for a democrat-approved business-----Dollar General Did Something No Company Should Ever Do. Now It Must Live With the Consequences
Dollar General Did Something No Company Should Ever Do. Now It Must Live With the Consequences link
- What would you do if someone posted a viral video about working conditions at your company?
- Employee hours were severely limited by the company, she said, leading to her or another employee often working alone in the store.
- Shipments arrived unexpectedly, and with no staff to unpack them, she was forced by company policy to leave boxes stacked up in the aisles, blocking the store shelves and leading to customer complaints.
The TikTok videos went viral, and Dollar General fired her, even though it had informed her a couple of months earlier that she was in the top performing 5 percent of store managers.
That was just one of a series of mistakes that has led the company down what must be a very uncomfortable path..."

Zurawik: 'We Are Headed to Hell' If Congress Doesn't Regulate Musk | Newsbusters link
"On Sunday’s episode of CNN’s Reliable Sources, media analyst and rabid leftist David Zurawik claimed that Congress needs to step in to regulate social media platforms now that free speech advocate Elon Musk has bought Twitter.
- “...There's a bigger problem here about how we are going to control the channels of communication in this country.
- ...Becoming more and more unhinged, Zurawik cried: “This is dangerous. We can't think anymore in this country.” This caused host Brian Stelter to audibly laugh.
- ...Ending his rage-filled tirade Zurawik whined: “You cannot let these guys control discourse in this country or we are headed to hell. We are there. Trump opened the gates of hell and now they're chasing us down.”
This shows how detached from reality they truly are..."
Gaetz Highlights Troops Fighting Biden's DOD Vaccine Mandate
Gaetz Highlights Troops Fighting Biden's DOD Vaccine Mandate:
Gaetz said that at a recent event in his district, which has the highest concentration of active duty military members in the country, a number of service members expressed frustration to him about the mandate.
“It is a purposeful Biden purge of our military,” Gaetz said Thursday on his podcast Firebrand.
Despite a broad reduction of pandemic-related restrictions by cities and businesses across the country, and despite the low number of service member deaths due to the coronavirus, the Biden administration is insisting that troops continue to get vaccinated or face discharge.
They all use the same tactics!-----A chilling comparison - American Thinker
A chilling comparison - American Thinker By Thomas Lifson link"Rabbi Michael Barclay began his article at PJ Media Saturday with this scenario, that grabbed my attention:
A criminal is wrongfully killed, and “peaceful demonstrations,” which are actually violent riots, break out nationwide. The flag of a radical and violent group is placed next to the national flag on government buildings. Out of fear of being canceled and losing business, individuals and corporations succumb to publicly supporting this violent organization...A President overreaches and takes on “emergency powers,” which create an authoritarian regime that demands supportive behavior and calls any criticism “disinformation.” A new agency of the government is created to “fight this disinformation”… an agency that even has access to armed personnel...
- Obviously, this sounds like a narrative of America since George Floyd’s death in police custody in Minneapolis.
- But Rabbi Barclay explains that it is actually a narrative of the development of the Nazi regime in Germany, where Horst Wessel’s death was used the same way career criminal George Floyd’s was.
He explains this more completely in his essay, which I urge you to read in full..."

GWU student government wants conservative group suspended for ‘transphobic’ tweets link
"The George Washington University Student Association Senate unanimously passed a resolution last week which calls on school officials to suspend the campus chapter of the Young America’s Foundation for alleged “transphobic” tweets.
According to The Hatchet, the SAS approved the “No Place for Hate Act” on Monday which says a series of YAF tweets were “hateful,” and demands the campus Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion “conduct trainings” with the conservative group to ensure it “understand[s] why [its] statements were wrong.”
The allegedly hateful/transphobic tweets in question include:
— “oh the pro-pedo libs are gonna LOVE this one”
— “we aren’t the ones advocating for the grooming and sexualization of children …”
— “The statement that pedophiles shouldn’t be teaching in schools should not be controversial, it’s common sense.”
— “AGREE OR GET CANCELLED: @benshapiro explains how trans ‘rights’ are an attack on free speech.”..."

"...But in this case, the expansion makes the agency in question even more dangerous to the American people than it was already.
- When Politico revealed the existence of the Board in an offhanded statement buried 60 paragraphs down in its Wednesday “Politico Playbook,” it said that the Department of Homeland Security was “standing up a new Disinformation Governance Board to coordinate countering misinformation related to homeland security, focused specifically on irregular migration and Russia.”
- DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, however, went farther than that almost immediately, saying on Thursday: “We have just established a mis- and disinformation governance board in the Department of Homeland Security to more effectively combat this threat not only to election security, but to our homeland security.”
- And when Jen Psaki defended Biden’s new Ministry of Truth on Thursday, she went farther still: “We know there has been a range of [disinformation] out there about a range of topics, I mean, including COVID for example, and also elections and eligibility.”..."

Jill Biden book sales embarrassingly low - TheBlaze:
Based on book sales, readers are apparently not interested in paying $26 to "better understand" the personality of Jill Biden.
Twitter reactions to the disappointing book sales had many commentators asking how the first lady to the most popular president in U.S. history could have such pathetic sales numbers. President Joe Biden set a new record with 81,284,000 votes in the 2020 election.
Columnist Tim Young pointed out, "81 million votes, but Jill Biden's new biography only sold 250 total copies in 1 week."
