C.Q. Brown to be the next Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff even though he has aggressively championed such Marxist strategies for dividing-and-conquering America as: Critical Race Theory; Diversity, Equity, Inclusion; the LGBTQ+ agenda; transgender accommodations; and climate change as the greatest threat facing our country.<\/p>\n<p>You don\u2019t need to be a past or present member of the armed forces \u2013 or one of their loved ones \u2013 to understand how incompatible these initiatives are with our military\u2019s essential readiness, recruitment, morale and deterrence capabilities. Yet, all but 11 Senators voted to make General our nation\u2019s top officer. And, all other things being equal, they will likely approve still more of these so-called \u201cwoke\u201d admirals and generals.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s where we come in. The American people, who overwhelmingly revere our men and women in uniform and rely upon them to secure us, do not want Marxists to further penetrate and take-down the armed services. And they don\u2019t want their Senators to vote to facilitate such a perilous and, to use Barack Obama\u2019s ominous phrase, \u201cfundamental transformation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That is especially true at a moment when the Chinese Communist Party is manifestly preparing for a shooting war against us \u2013 and can only be emboldened by the success here of its friends\u2019 divisive subversion in our ranks.<\/p>\n<p>A new, informal coalition called \u201cSave America\u2019s Military\u201d has been created to do just that by making the case that the Senate should reject, rather than promote, officers who, like Gen. C.Q. Brown, favor insidious Marxist policies and by facilitating patriots in calling on their senators to represent them faithfully.<\/p>\n<h2>Presentations in order of appearance:<\/h2>\n<p><strong>FRANK GAFFNEY<\/strong><br \/>\nFounder and Executive Chairman, Center for Security Policy; Vice-chair, Committee on the Present Danger: China<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dr. CAROL SWAIN<\/strong><br \/>\nAward-winning political scientist and former tenured professor at Princeton and Vanderbilt Universities<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dr. RON SCOTT<\/strong><br \/>\nPresident and CEO of STARRS<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lt Gen WILLIAM \u201cJERRY\u201d BOYKIN<\/strong><br \/>\nU.S. Army (Ret.): Former Deputy Under Secretary of Defense; former Commander, Delta Force<\/p>\n<p><strong>JENNY BETH MARTIN<\/strong><br \/>\nCo-Founder and National Coordinator, Tea Party Patriots<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hon.
