A national security disaster waiting to happen.
And to make this even more ridiculous than it already is, they’re calling this board the “warrior board”.
If Donald Trump approves the order, it could fast-track the removal of generals and admirals found to be “lacking in requisite leadership qualities,” … But it could also create a chilling effect on top military officers, given the president-elect’s past vow to fire “woke generals,” referring to officers seen as promoting diversity in the ranks at the expense of military readiness.
As commander in chief, Trump can fire any officer at will, but an outside board whose members he appoints would bypass the Pentagon’s regular promotion system, signaling across the military that he intends to purge a number of generals and admirals.
…
But some former officials believe the potential Trump administration is looking to politicize the military. “Do they start wearing MAGA hats in formation to signal who’s where?” asked one former senior Pentagon official. “The potential for this to go wrong is infinite.”
Emphases mine.
he’s already outsourced executive branch and parts of judicial and legislative; so why not outsource our military leadership to russia, too.
Nazis play opposite day to confuse everybody.
Hey everyone who didn’t vote! Thanks!
But Palestine or some bullshit
Never thought I’d see the end of US military hegemony in my lifetime. But this makes it that much more likely.
Ahh so looking for new ones that would turn around and go after US citizens in the US, yes?
The last shred of hope I have is that all the people that are being picked for various federal roles are so incompetent that they can’t even crime properly.
Thats the hope. Trump gets side tracked chasing the news cycle and golfing while his incompetent lackeys smear shit on the walls. A couple years later he chokes on a hamberder, Vance pushes through some last minute tax breaks to pay off his backers and leaves office in 2028.
This would just setup Vance for eternal president though. He doesn’t walk away from that.
Well, give that hope up. That was what he did first go round. They’re been plotting for 4+ years on how to do it right this time.
Steve Bannon was just talking about door-to-door thugs to enforce illegal removal. They’re already plotting concentration camps on the border.
They have their shit together this time. Remember Hitler’s failed Beer Hall Putsch? Same deal.
shred
Probably irrelevant because they won’t get prosecuted anyway.
Of course not. I mean to say that I hope they’re too incompetent to reach their criminal goals.
Ah. I misinterpreted your comment.
Ah, the fascist purge begins.
Up next should be jailing opponents of some sort.
Hey, I’ve seen this before!
Kind of curious where he gets the funding for that board.
Musk?
He’s rich, not a branch of government.
Yet.
Up next, generals create board to purge Trump.
