The United States Senate recently voted to make Air Force General Charles “C.Q.” Brown the next Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the top officer in the U.S. military.
All but eleven senators supported that promotion even though they were on notice that Gen. Brown appears to be even more political, incompetent as a manager and enthusiastic about the Marxist make-over of America’s armed forces than the disastrous incumbent, General Mark Milley.
Unfortunately, all other things being equal, a majority of senators will likely approve still more of these so-called “woke” admirals and generals.
That’s where we come in. If you are like most Americans, you revere our men and women in uniform and rely upon them to secure us. You do not want Marxists to further penetrate – let alone take-down – the armed services. And you don’t want your Senators voting to facilitate such a perilous and, to use Barack Obama’s ominous phrase, “fundamental transformation” of our military.
That is especially true at a moment when the Chinese Communist Party is manifestly preparing for a shooting war against us – and can only be emboldened by the success here of its friends’ divisive subversion in our ranks.
If you want our troops to be capable of deterring aggression and, failing that, trained, equipped and prepared to defeat enemies who perpetrate it, please take a minute to remind your senators that they swore a solemn oath to “support and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.” If they are to faithfully uphold that promise, they must oppose the promotion of senior uniformed leaders who chose to ravage, rather than restore, our military.
