Civilian Leaders are undermining our troops as retention of our warriors takes a nose dive

US Military

Revelations 6:3-4 “when he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, “Come!” 4 And out came another horse, bright red. Its rider was permitted to take peace from the earth, so that people should slay one another, and he was given a great sword.

Important Takeaways:

  • Our military is in a dangerous decline and this is the reason why
  • The U.S. Armed Forces have one mission: to protect our nation from foreign enemies. Our troops are as committed to that mission as ever before. But according to a bracing new report, our warriors’ ability to do their job is being undermined by civilian leaders more interested in woke indoctrination and partisan politics than warfighting readiness.
  • Last year, the Army missed its recruiting goal by 25 percent. They expect this year to be even worse. The Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps began the new fiscal year in October 50 percent below their normal recruiting numbers. Public confidence in the military is falling precipitously, and even military families – from which most recruits come – are less likely to recommend military life.
  • The Heritage Foundation’s latest annual Index of U.S. Military Strength rated our Armed Forces preparedness “weak.”
  • Up and down the ranks, Team Biden’s DEI-focused initiatives are degrading the warrior ethos, “grounded in values such as courage, honor and self-sacrifice,” on which military morale, respect and success depend.
  • The Department of Defense touts its “Diversity, Equity and Inclusion” agenda like a third-tier college, apparently unaware that the institution they lead is “by design, exclusionary to ensure its readiness.”
  • Their 2023 budget requested $34.2 million to conduct a witch hunt for “extremist” – which in Biden-world translates as “conservative” – political activities in the ranks. Even DOD’s own study showed less than .005 percent of the 2 million active military personnel were linked to extremist activity.
