Is Biden Preparing to Purge Conservatives from the Military?

The memo, issued by the Department of Defense, is titled “Immediate Actions to Counter Extremism in the Department and the Establishment of the Countering Extremism Working Group,” or the CEWG.

Among other things, the memo explains that the CEWG is tasked with updating the definition of “Extremism” so the military can “revise its definition of prohibited extremist activities among uniformed military personnel.” It will also help the Department of Defense review and update screening questions “about current or previous extremist behavior,” and oversee the implementation of a study “on extremist behavior within our Total Force [i.e., the entire military], to include gaining greater fidelity on the scope of the problem.” The CEWG will also be responsible for developing mid-term and long-term recommendations “for continued engagement on this issue.”

In developing these recommendations, the CEWG will pursue “four initial Lines of Effort.” Those lines of effort will empower it to make recommendations on potential changes to the Uniformed Code of Military Justice (UCMJ); making it easier to report “extremist” behavior; improving the Department of Defense’s ability to “screen” for extremists, including “continuous vetting for national security positions”; and updating the “education and training” on the issue of “extremism” throughout the entire military. The CEWG will also address “gray areas” in training related to “reading, following, and liking extremist material and content in social media forums and platforms.” Combined with the “continuous vetting” for various positions, this arguably entails monitoring everything any service member says, likes, or even reads on the internet—all for the purpose of addressing “extremism.”

So—what does the Department of Defense mean by all this talk of “extremism”? Are they referring to Islamist extremism? Left-wing extremism? Or something else?

We can make an educated guess as to what the Biden Administration means by “extremism” based on the man who was appointed to lead the CEWG. As Fox News and others have reported, his name is Bishop Garrison. The memo describes him as “Senior Advisor on Human Capital and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.”

The military is getting its own “equity czar,” in the same way many universities already have. As AMAC Newsline has discussed elsewhere, “equity” in leftist parlance means nothing less than equality of results between different groups—a fundamental tenet of Communism. If group outcomes are not the same, “inequity” remains, and people like Bishop Garrison will be called in to “fix” it, all while blaming it on “extremism.”

But what would Bishop Garrison consider “extreme”? The evidence is frightening.

For example, Garrison tweeted the following about the widely discredited “1619 Project” of the New York Times:

I don’t care what color you are, how you identify, your socio-economic status, or how your family got to this country. Stop what you’re doing & read this & other pieces of the #1619project. These are American stories we all need to hear.

On July 16, 2020, when Secretary of State Mike Pompeo tweeted that the 1619 Project presented a false view of American history, Garrison tweeted back: “I know this was for an audience of one, but this is pretty silly even for that. It’d be laughable if it weren’t so dangerous.” [Emphasis added]

Logically, it seems Garrison believes the numerous scholars who have criticized the basic contentions of the 1619 Project—including eminent historians such as Gordon Wood—are also “dangerous.”

As early as June 2020, at the height of the riots following the death of George Floyd, Garrison was on the record appealing to the national security community “to fight racial injustice.”

And in a tweet thread on July 27, 2019, Garrison wrote the following about President Trump and his supporters (emphasis added):

Silence from our Congressional leaders is complicity. He is only going to get worse from here, & his party and its leadership are watching it happen while doing nothing to stop it. Support for him, a racist, is support for ALL his beliefs. He is dragging a lot of bad actors (misogynist, extremists, other racists) out into the light, normalizing their actions. If you support the President, you support that. There is no room for nuance with this. There is no more “but I’m not like that” talk. Because you’re watching what he says. You’re listening to his careful choice of words. And you’re still willing to follow him and/or not speak out. So yes, you’re very much like that. It’s time we all step up.

In other words, Garrison considers President Trump—and all those who supported him—as racists. He doesn’t accept that there can be legitimate policy disagreement on any of this. “There is no room for nuance with this,” he says. Trump is a racist. Supporting him is tantamount to racism. This is the man who will oversee the purge of “extremists” from the United States military. All of those MAGA-hat wearing troops in the rank-and-file had better watch out.

Where has AMAC been? The whole purpose of the global 60 day stand down of all U.S. military forces announced months ago was to facilitate the purging of any military personnel, especially at the officer level, that showed signs of being more loyal to their sworn oath to the Constitution of the United States than the person occupying the office of the POTUS. What you are hinting at has already been done. The purge is already well under way.

The fact that you don’t happen to hear on the mainstream nightly news about the reassignments and forced resignations doesn’t mean they haven’t been happening. It just means you haven’t been talking to enough people in the active military ranks to get an accurate picture of what is going on. I suggest you spend a little time looking at the new military recruitment ads to see where the military is being forced to go. While our military is going “woke”, China is busy on ways to genetically enhance their soldiers to be even better. Get the picture yet? Also look at the leaked internal DoD memos that show training in both critical race theory and progressive diversity training are back in force within the military. Instead of studying military tactics and strategy to win military engagements, we are focused on how not to potentially offend some “woke” recruits in the ranks that may be offended to be “asked” to fight for this country, when he or she might prefer to attend a ANTIFA or BLM “protest” (riot).

Elections, fair or not, have consequences.

The Army has already purged a number of officers and non-commissioned officers from the ranks. Any “extremist” views expressed on Twitter or Facebook in the PAST are grounds for removal. For officers, all it takes is ONE ADVERSE Officer’s Evaluation Report and that officer’s career is ended!

For our NCOs, adverse evaluation reports bring on a “Qualitative” review board and the NCO is separated as a “non performer,” or worse! So, the handwriting is on the wall. The HEAT is on raters and senior raters up and down the chain of command, to “put the whammy to extremists! “Extremists” are anything that DOD lays claim to.

Oficers and NCOs no longer are in control of their troops! “Equity” officers, at battalion level, more or less COMMISSARS are now in total control! Welcome to BIDEN’S ARMY.

Whenever any government plows the ground with double-talk, vague terms, phraseology that is indeterminant…..they now can drive their agenda into the systems they want to use to control anyone and everyone who does not march to their particular drum……the military is one of the key points of such control…..even with an armed citizenry….who will be out-gunned, and quickly overtaken.
….the history of governments past, will show you the government of the future. Hope you have a supply of vasoline on hand.

The main objectives of the military is to kill people and break things. NOT included in that assessment of results is the common fallacy of social engineering for an outcome of military activity. American communism is at play here with the equity factor. Common results in outcomes but not in opportunities. GET REAL FOLKS!!!

Is he preparing? He already is! Not to mention, it started back with Obama. One of the first thing he did when he stepped into the White House was to start purging the military of all it’s top leaders, especially those with a conservative view point…what’s left is a bunch of yes men, and none of them very competent. I’ve said it a dozen times, this country is in for a world of hurt like we’ve never seen before.

This is the “Follow On” to obama’s purge of Flag Ranks of Warriors. He didn’t like or trust Warriors. He preferred to talk, dither, & (in the end) do nothing. Warrior’s on the other hand, ACT decisively, quickly, & are totally into using military force. Biden is simply following — or doing — what obama did. Is anyone surprised?

Don’t forget that Biden’s puppet master, Obama, purged 197 Flag and General Officers In Five Years and, to quote someone smarter than I, “what has happened to our officer corps since President Obama took office is viewed in many quarters as unprecedented, baffling and even harmful to our national security posture” I don’t know what you could expect from Biden other than “Obama’s third term” or as something I read the other day said, “But the things Biden is rescuing and renewing are left-wing ideas that have been declared dead so many times for so many years that they can’t even vote in Chicago.” For more information about the state of America, go to the website, “Flag Officers 4 America” and read their opening statement which starts, “Our Nation is in deep peril. We are in a fight for our survival as a Constitutional Republic like no other time since our founding in 1776. The conflict is between supporters of Socialism and Marxism vs. supporters of Constitutional freedom and liberty.” Over 150 retired Flag and General Officers have signed on, even if, I would suspect – considering the corruption in the current government – they may be putting their retirement into jeopardy.

There will be a time (we don’t know how long) when freedom of speech will be valued but not practiced by those who disagree with the move to socialism but are afraid to stand up for anything. After a time of being careful not to say or read or support anything the far left does not approve, will we remember the meaning of defending our borders, law and order, freedom of speech, the right to bear arms, protection of all life, election integrity, free markets?????? We are experiencing serious degradation of citizenship. How long will America continue to be the favorite of immigrants? Where will humans who long for freedom go?

What is sad is that whats happenning to our America is not just China Joe’s doings but it is our Senate and House that is letting this happen. All it would take to stop all this nonsense is just a few Senators and Representives that love our America enought to stop this transformation of America. This needs to happen becouse waiting till 2022 might be too late to save our America.

A lot of our more experienced and conservative military leaders were “encouraged” to retire or otherwise leave service under Obama. There was a very large military change of leadership. I have no doubt at all that Biden will continue the process. Call it a “purge” if you like, but some of Obama’s preferred leaders were people who gave Trump a lot of grief and it was political for sure. Everything is political to a liberal/leftist/Democrat.

Political Correctness has now metastasized and become virulent. It is readily apparent that it now poses a serious existential threat to our nation, our liberties and our American way of life.
 
America is under attack on so many levels. These attacks have been well coordinated and perpetrated by Fifth Column elements within our country, and apparently for quite some time, but they have been operating under the radar. Our schools and universities have already been infiltrated and compromised.  The lamestream media is continuously and intensively aiding and abetting the Demsheviks with propaganda promoting their dysfunctional and destructive socialist ideology. Look at how many voters were duped during the 2020 election to vote for Comrade Joe and Commissar Harris.
 
Now that the Demsheviks have hijacked our government, this Fifth Colum activity has surfaced and is now pursued with a “sense of respectability” on all fronts. Their zeal in pursuit of their dysfunctional ideologies has ramped up to the level of unbridled fanaticism.
 
This article points out that our Military is next in the crosshairs. In essence, if the Demsheviks get their way, our Military will be completely politicized and become little more than a Gulag for the Demsheviks to institute Group Think indoctrination throughout the ranks.
 
The Demsheviks (Democratic Socialist Bolsheviks) want ideological compliant and fawning wimps, while what Patriotic America wants is warriors who take their oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic (and mean it!).
 
I am a veteran. I took that very oath on March 23, 1967, when I was commissioned as an 2nd Lieutenant in the U.S. Army, Corps of Engineers. Got NEWS for you Demsheviks out there. That oath contained NO EXPIRATION DATE! I am still bound by it, and will be so for as long as I live.

These are the kind of people that Biden has installed into his COMMUNIST GOVERNMENT and Biden and all of his administration need to be removed from their public office’s as soon as possible by voting them out of our so called Government!!

If they aren’t removed by the vote they need to be removed by another means!! All of these COMMUNIST ASS WIPES are trying to make our country into a THIRD WORLD SHIT HOLE run by Biden’s butt buddies the CHINESE and the MUSLIME TERRORIST RUN U.N!!!

The Democrat’s Army of thugs need to be removed from society as well, you know, ANTIFA and BLM who are home grown TERRORISTS and should be removed also, one way or another!!

I would prefer the “another way”, that would save millions of jail time dollars if they were ever put into jail!! With the Liberal morons in Biden’s so called DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE they will never go to jail so we will need to remove them in the most cost effective way!!

Obama purged 200 Christian generals when he was in office. To take over a nation you need the military, FBI, CIA, Home land security, police on your side to achieve their goal. This is where Trump went wrong; He didn’t get rid of the Obama left overs, and put the Christians back in he would be president.

I can’t understand how this administration can walk away from all the millions of Americans that voted for President Trump. Now we’re all racists ? How did Obama win the presidency? I think a lot of caucasian folks voted for him in the two elections he won. We have to show up at the voting booths in the next 2 elections. This nonsense has got to stop. Now they’re going to question the military’s political views? If they’re for MAGA, they’re racist? Who the —— is running this country? Don’t they get it ? 1/2 the country voted red! God help us if America doesn’t take back the House, Senate, and the Presidency . It seems like they’re making people racists by implementing all this rhetoric. Sad times ????
