And the hits keep on coming.

They've began to memory hole the paintings of grads like Robert E. Lee.

As nine alumni highlight racism at West Point, the academy’s IG starts review of ‘all matters involving race’

In short: minority alums are seizing the moment to bring BLM to West Point...

quote:

The document called on West Point to remove monuments honoring Confederate leaders, promote more academic work by marginalized people and institute anti-racism training.

West Point is a very important thing for the leftists to take control of. They'd love nothing more than having their hand-picked communists as the only ones that graduate from there and go into the military.

Trump should clean house on the military brass. They aren’t an effective leadership unit anymore

Considering this and the BS in the other thread, I won't root against the Army in the next conflict like leftists do, but I won't care too much one way or the other.

The infantrymen aren't the idiots pushing this shite. They need the same support from us they've always gotten.

frick these liberal pussies sitting within the safe confines of this country lapping up its luxuries while simultaneously slandering its very structural core.

Most Americans in 2020 don’t support statues of Confederate heroes. And this is not going to change back in the favor of people that want to keep them. Right of wrong most people see these statues as celebrating people who fought to maintain the right to own other human beings as slaves.

They are going to be led by these assholes.

Phony expressions of support when nothing is done about their shitty leadership does them no good.

The system is definitely aligned against those accepted into one of the countries greatest institutions upon congressional nomination. Oh, how they've been kept down!

Given that the top brass has openly defied the Commander in Chief, if Trump wins he should fire Esper, Miley, and flush most of these Obama generals.

I wonder how they feel about the fact that most of our Army doctrine is evolved from Confederate and Nazi military tactics.

“DEFUND THE GLOBAL POLICE!”

“There are instruments so dangerous to the rights of the nation, and which place them so totally at the mercy of their governors, that those governors, whether legislative or executive, should be restrained from keeping such instruments on foot, but in well-defined cases. Such an instrument is a standing army.” Thomas Jefferson, letter to David Humphreys, 1789.


“Bonaparte transferred the destinies of the republic from the civil to the military arm. Some will use this as a lesson against the practicability of republican government. I read it as a lesson against the danger of standing armies.” Thomas Jefferson, letter to Samuel Adams, 1800.

Clearly, the CO of the place is to blame.

Once again, this is something Trump could solve in 5 minutes.

What they should review is why the US has not won a war since WWII, except for Grenada.

Yet “reverse” racism will be ignored.
