The United States Military has prioritized recruitment over readiness. In honor of Veteran’s Day, Rebecca Weber invites Major General Mick McGuire on the BFA Podcast to bring awareness to issues plaguing today’s military. McGuire shares a study done by the Heritage Foundation to further illustrate the damage that has been done by the Biden Administration which has little understanding of the purpose, character, and traditions of the institution they are trying to change. But America would never be what it is today without the brave men and women who have fought and continue to fight for our freedoms and liberties. From all of us here at AMAC, we thank those who have served and sacrificed for our nation. Happy Veteran’s Day! ❤

I’m a non-binary retired Arizona Gaurdsman my pronouns are they them, I am gender fluid. I won soldier of the year for the state of Arizona in 2010 I have an honorable retirement medical disability retirement I survived rape at the hands of other soldiers that I served with domestic violence, harassment, bullying, and a lot of the soldiers got to stay in and serve their full 20 years who have done these things to me, so don’t you dare think that you have some right to go around stealing my honor and the fact that I served honorably to try and make the world a better place and a safer place for my daughter who is also gay. I am not a liberal. I voted for Obama and I voted for Trump this last election. I did not vote you need to keep in mind that when you start downing soldiers who have served without having any education about the truth of what you are saying, that you are also destroying and defaming the soldiers children’s lives, who went through the same suffering of missing their parents is any heterosexual male, Christian combat arms soldier. So what I guess you’re saying general mcguire is when you thank your brothers in arms you’re only thanking certain brothers in arms, they don’t deserve your honor if they don’t fit into your little box of what you think a person should be thank God you did not win the Senate race, and I hope you do not get put in any other political positions as well, it would be detrimental for the well-being of all soldiers, and I am still astounded to this day that you were allowed to go around bragging about the position you held in the state of Arizona, but absolutely take no, regarding the fact that you were down talking soldiers, who served under you and work countless hours for the state of Arizona.

This woman needs to educate herself. They are not saying that they are going to pay for transgendered surgeries. They are saying that they’re going to allow people to serve who have had transgendered surgeries. The military has stated that they are not going to pay for the surgeries, you don’t have to worry your rich ass about taxes being taken from you, and by the way, gay and non-binary and all types of soldiers that you’re calling woke, I’ve been serving in the military since last century.general Maguire has soldiers who have transitioned their gender after leaving the military. He has soldiers who served under him in the Arizona guard who are gay and lesbian and nonbinary. It’s funny how many of you stuck up females in the civilian world put on your red shirts spent too much money on your nose jobs and getting your hair bleached and go around talking about a “woke” army, yet you didn’t have the courage to volunteer and sign up but you want to pass judgment on those who served who have already served who are transgendered your ignorance is ridiculous and the fact that this website is called mature Americans. We’re allowed to keep soldiers in who rape other soldiers, and get rid of the victims so your tax money is also paying for soldiers to be allowed to serve who have years of misconduct of committing hate, crimes, child abuse, domestic violence, rape, and nothing happens to them. They get to keep serving, and the victims are made to retire so if you really wanna know where your tax money is going, you need to start looking at these guys who brag about their medals, but do nothing to help the soldiers who were raped by their battle buddies. Your intelligence is small.

Ask him about covering up one of his soldiers having a brain injury, and telling everybody to not let that soldier know, after they were in a coma and suffering from amnesia, and ask him about allowing a male racism extremist white power soldier to keep serving, who violated many things, such as abusing multiple women and children to include this soldier almost shooting his wife at the time (who is also a soldier who served under him) and her daughter (the soldiers stepdaughter) and even trying to shoot them with a loaded gun, and McGuire covering it up and allowing that man to keep serving and giving no victim services to the abused dependents. McGuire is a phony and not deserving to represent any voice in this country till he addresses his gross misconduct and stops utilizing his deployments as a means to make himself appear infallible. He is rather narcissistic and a male chauvinist.

He (McGuire)is only interested in supporting things that fit his personal standard and opinion. He is not capable of representing the military he served in and the country as a whole. He committed hate crimes and defamation against soldiers serving under him who are gay or non binary and of different religions and beliefs, and he uplifts soldiers in the ranks who still think it’s appropriate to use the “n” word and beat women and soldiers they served with. He is fake and only cares about his own image. Same with Ducey. McGuire selfishly rides his deployments and medals to hide his misconduct and hate crimes towards soldiers who are different than him.

He commuted hate crimes and defamation against soldiers serving under him who are gay or non binary and of different religions and beliefs, and he uplifts soldiers in the ranks who still think it’s appropriate to use the “n” word and beat women and soldiers they served with. He is fake and only cares about his own image. Same with Ducey. McGuire selfishly rides his deployments and medals to hide his misconduct and hate crimes towards soldiers who are different than him.

The administration we have in office including the president is a traitor of the American people and needs to be taken out of office and replaced as when they completely open the borders. There is no excuse for this everything eles that they have done illegally can be added to it we should not have to wait to vote them out of office this is total crap.

This Administration is worse than J. Carter. President Carter was not a life long politician and was given bad advise when he slashed the Defense budget. This President was there in Government then and now he himself is out to dismantle our Military. They now once again have entry-level ranks that are married signing up for food stamps and I am sure living in rent assisted government housing projects. He was I am sure one of the Leftist on the Senate that talked Pres. Carter into the same ploy for spending on wasteful Leftist projects. If the Republicans gain the House they have to stop the Socialist Leftist Democrat Politicians from destroying Military readiness and bankrupting our great nation.

So much is in decline under this, unacceptable to me, Biden administration. The military should be untouchable to traitors within our gates. I see recent generations who have no clue to the importance of a ‘ready when called on’ military that scares me to death. But I thank God for those Patriots trained

Thanks to Joe Biden, we are much less ready than we have ever been. He forced healthy soldiers to either take jabs that have all kinds of long term side effects or walk away. He has them learning gender identities and social issues instead of combat readiness. They have to dumb down the entry exams and physical tests because our strong healthy potential soldiers are not willing to be at the front lines during the world war that is brewing. He has our country being infiltrated at our Mexican borders, left our high tech weapons for our enemies, and worst of all he left our troops in harms way and didn’t look back. Who the hell wants to join him in our destruction? This admin is pathetic and full of traitors.

We must always be ready and alert with qualified warriors. This crap of sacrificing readiness for acceptance, diversity, equality is bunch of sh*t. We didn’t in the past and we were the most powerful military in the world which sustained our freedoms we enjoy.

The priority needs to be on readiness. I definitely understand the need to meet the recruitment goals in order to meet our readiness. They should be nearly equal.

As a Veteran, I totally agree. The priority of the military must always be readiness and that cannot be accomplished by being “woke.”
