America deserves better than what she’s being forced to endure. Fix the rot at the top and suddenly military recruitment problems will go away. Young people are still willing to fight and die for American ideals. The problem is that American leadership has none.

The Real Reason American Military Recruitment Is Failing
How the Militant Left Uses Fear
From The European Conservative:
A technique the Left uses to increase control through public anxiety is to “set multiple fires along the ridgeline.” The public notices that the flames are spreading. Which fire does one run to first? What must be sacrificed and allowed to burn?
On the other hand, you represent individual liberty, freedom of conscience, and the right to be secure in your home and property, and that is the homeland security you must fight to preserve at all costs.
"Their goal is to manipulate the population into a series of fear-based decisions that disconnect people from their traditions, history, and values—and from each other. Separation from reality, inducing neurotic behavior and developing disordered environments—while simultaneously extinguishing individual independent thought and behavior—work together to create ‘learned helplessness,’ leaving a vacuum for government to step in and ‘save the day.’
"This type of strategic psychological combat, aimed at directing and swaying public attitudes, is not new, nor is it merely the product of the last 100 years. Sun Tzu also stressed the importance of destroying the enemy’s will to fight in his 5th-century BC writings on military affairs. Lenin’s 1920 “Conditions for Admission to the Communist International” discusses this technique as “demoralization”—the far-stronger German term is Zersetzung—meaning break-up, decomposition, and disintegration. In the late 1920s the German communist party had specific operational detachments, referred to as Apparat, specifically for Zersetzung and Terror, working together in powerful combination. The German communist cells took orders from Moscow, agitated for class warfare, deconstructed society for political advantage, and subverted the authority of the Weimar constitution. You are the modern-day target for this exact same treatment.
"The mind has always been one of the most important battlegrounds—this is especially seen in Lenin’s dogmatic interpretation of Marxism. Lenin stresses throughout his writing that there can only be one right belief and that any dissent is a threat meriting terrorism at home and aggression abroad. ". . .
Don’t Let The Democrats Claim The Mantle Of Freedom
We challenge readers to come up with even a single freedom that Democrats support, and abortion doesn’t count unless a convincing case can be made that abortion is not the taking of an innocent human life, and that the aborted have no rights of their own to be respected.
"We could start with any of the Democrats’ many examples of projection and deflection, but let’s focus on one of the most recent instances of a Democratic pot calling a kettle black: California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s Florida television ad.
“Freedom is under attack in your state,” Newsom said in a voice a bit less croaky than his usual raspy delivery. “Your Republican leaders, they’re banning books, making it harder to vote, restricting speech in classrooms, even criminalizing women and doctors.
“I urge all of you living in Florida to join the fight or join us in California, where we still believe in freedom. Freedom of speech, freedom to choose, freedom from hate, and the freedom to love. Don’t let them take your freedom,” he finishes with a faux flourish that included a pointed finger meant to underline the sincerity the factory-made man sorely lacks.
"The ad is a truly stomach-turning performance (typical of Newsom) for those who truly cherish freedom, and understand what it is – and isn’t. (It’s also filled with lies. Read this master Fisking of the governor’s tales.)
"The California of Newsom, who many hope will save the Democratic Party from sinking under the Joe Biden and Kamala Harris millstones, is ranked 48th in the Cato Institute’s Freedom In The 50 States report. It’s where new prohibitions, such as bans on multiple plastic consumer goods, including single-use bags customarily given out by retailers, pop up on a regular basis, and food waste must be composted rather than thrown in garbage cans.
"Under Newsom, California lawmakers:
- Have literally robbed workers of their livelihoods through Assembly Bill 5, which virtually outlawed gig work (though exceptions have been granted for some of the more politically connected independent contract workers).
- Are in the process of criminalizing speech about COVID-19 that is considered by the political powers to be “disinformation” or “misinformation.”
- And are also trying to dodge the Second Amendment and the U.S Supreme Court’s recent Bruen ruling.
Isn’t that guy from the lockdown-happy state of California that arrested a guy on the ocean all by himself and filled in a skate park with sand so nobody could use it?

1. If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor 2. Disarm legal gun owners so criminals with guns keep you in fear 3. Blocking voting security dilutes everyone's vote 4. Sexualize children and excuse/release violent criminals 5. Freedom of speech, but not conservative speech
CNN Host Wears ‘I WILL AID AND ABET ABORTION’ T-Shirt on Air
. . ."Fill-in anchor Boris Sanchez was all smiles as they discussed the new episodes of the show, which is seemingly meant to mock conservative beliefs.
"In the clip they aired, they showed a group of women saying that they do not think Critical Race Theory should be taught in schools, then some “gotcha” questions to try and make them look bad.
" 'You know, sometimes you laugh to keep from crying. And I think that’s why I became a comedian in general,” Bell said.
"Bell has also worn shirts on air with messages like “trans people belong.' ”
Two more reasons to be mad as hell at Joe Biden
Ed Brodow "Recently, I detailed five reasons to impeach Joe Biden. Here are two more.
1. Biden is selling our petroleum reserves to China.
"Biden is selling off 180 million barrels (one third of the total) from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. The stated goal: softening the pain on American citizens from higher gas prices. Releasing the oil should have reduced the price at the pump. Why isn't that happening? Because the oil being released is going to Europe, India, and China.
" 'The Biden administration is selling off our emergency oil reserves to China," said Tucker Carlson on Fox's Tucker Carlson Tonight. "An impeachable offense. Selling off our most valuable asset to a government whose goal is to crush us." The irony, Carlson points out, is that there is no reason to sell the reserves "when we can produce the energy here.". . .
2. Biden is forcing Critical Race Theory on state education systems.
"Biden has sent a bill to Congress — the "Civics Secures Democracy Act" (CSDA) — that will allow the Biden administration to force Critical Race Theory (CRT) on every public school in the country. "Over a six-year period," said Stanley Kurtz, senior fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center, in National Review, "this $6 billion pot of competitive grant money will create a de facto national curriculum — just like Common Core. States desperate to tap into the federal gravy train will have to tailor their civics and history grant proposals to the Biden administration's liking. And abundant evidence shows that Biden's Education Department is pushing CRT."
"Federal law prohibits the imposition of a curriculum on the states. How is Biden getting around the law? "The strings that Biden's bureaucrats will attach to these massive federal grants will suffice to lure states into adopting CRT," said Kurtz.". . .
If he succeeds, Biden will take America down a new path of racial division and political Stalinism.
Dems governors: Biden's in over his head, out of ideas, and out of time
"Who says America can’t find its way to a national consensus? Republicans have considered Joe Biden intellectually bankrupt for decades. According to the latest complaints making their way to Politico, Democrat governors have just figured that out — and now worry that the clock’s about to run out on Biden and their midterm hopes:". . .
Not that they have much choice in the matter. They’re only complaining to the media because Biden’s incompetence has grown so obvious to voters that it’s impossible to defend. The only strategy left to Democrats in and out of the Beltway is to distance themselves from the stench of the candidate they foisted on Americans in the first place. Good luck with that.
Exclusive–Top Oversight Republican in Congress Demands Testimony, Documents from Biden Officials on Oil Reserve Sale to Hunter-Linked Chinese Firm
"House Oversight and Reform Ranking Member James Comer (R-KY) told Breitbart News in an exclusive statement that when Republicans take control of the House, they plan on investigating reports that President Joe Biden sold nearly one million barrels from the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) to a Chinese state-owned gas company that has financial ties to a private equity firm cofounded by Hunter Biden.
"The Washington Free Beacon’s Collin Anderson released a bombshell report that Biden’s Department of Energy sold one million barrels to Unipec, the trading arm of Sinopec. Sinopec is wholly owned and operated by the Chinese Communist Party.
"According to the report, Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, reportedly has financial ties to the CPP-owned Sinopec. A private equity firm Hunter cofounded reportedly purchased a roughly $2 billion stake in Sinopec Marketing in 2015.
"The Free Beacon noted:
Biden is connected to Sinopec through BHR Partners, a private equity firm he cofounded in 2013. BHR bought a $1.7 billion stake in Sinopec Marketing in 2015. Biden at one point owned a 10 percent stake in BHR Partners through his wholly owned firm, Skaneateles, LLC.. . .
Inside The Biden Family
1987 |
Power Line "The New York Post’s Maureen Callahan takes a look inside President Biden’s immediate family in the column “Bidens are as dysfunctional as the Kennedys — and protected by the press.” Today Callahan’s column can be supplemented with Emily Crane’s New York Post story “Hunter Biden reportedly called Jill an ‘entitled c–t’ in texts.”
"For her column Callahan draws mostly on Ashley Biden’s diary. With a little help from the Biden Department of Justice the FBI is out to make someone — i.e., James O’Keefe — pay for the disclosure of Ashley Biden’s diary.
"Callahan does a good job compiling the evidence from a variety of sources, including Hunter Biden’s public ruminations as well as Hunter Biden’s laptop from hell. With a little help from the national security establishment, Joe Biden condemned the laptop as Russian disinformation and now refuses further comment.
"The contents of the laptop reveal the modus operandi of the corrupt Biden family business. The contents of the diary reveal the modus operandi of the family. Neither bears much scrutiny without profound disquiet and therefore neither has received much scrutiny from the mainstream media — another point made by Callahan. She frames a question near the top of her column:. . ."
Hunter Biden blamed First Lady Jill Biden for forcing him to go back to rehab – calling her a 'selfish silly entitled c***', 'a moron', 'stupid', and 'vain' – after she offered him a house and sent him loving messages. The biting insults were made behind his stepmother's back in text messages on a newly uncovered backup of Hunter's cell phone stored on his abandoned laptop. The vicious verbal attack, appears to be over Hunter's family asking him to go back to rehab in winter of 2018.
Details of Federal Investigation Into Hunter Biden Show a Family on the Brink "Hunter Biden’s laptop has been a goldmine for exposing the depravity of the Biden family. Seemingly weekly, some new, more disturbing revelation is revealed. Recently, the president’s son was implicated in a Russian human trafficking ring, with money from Joe Biden himself being used to pay the prostitutes.
"Naturally, because the Bidens play for the “right” team, though, the mainstream media still largely won’t touch the story. That’s given the White House the excuse to simply say they won’t comment on anything from the laptop, an answer that would never have satisfied to press if this involved anyone within a mile of Donald Trump.
"But while partisan journalists continue to run interference for the president and his family, a DOJ investigation into Hunter Biden is apparently heating up and is much farther reaching than originally reported.". . .
Two huge events shake America's top allies, and Sleepy Joe botches the responses to both
BREAKING UPDATE: Despite BOTH Donald Trump and former Vice President Mike Pence issuing statements on Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe Assassination, neither Joe Biden or Kamala Harris have provided any statement in any form.El American:
. . ." Update: Joe has finally come out with a canned statement, using the occasion of Abe's death, to shill against gun violence, as if Japan were just an oversized Chicago. Once again, highly inappropriate -- Japan has gun control and it's not a matter of "too many guns" on the streets of Nara. It's a freak who makes his own gun, which renders the gun control argument irrelevant and certainly is insulting to the occasion in Japan. Twitchy has the scoop on the statement here.
"Meanwhile, over in Great Britain, a prime minister was thrown out after less than three years in office, over a series of petty scandals. Yes, he seems to have brought this on himself through his reckless behavior, but it's still a sad story. Britain, after all, is America's top ally, and Prime Minister Boris Johnson worked closely and cordially with senile old Joe through his short tenure in office. He was the first to recognize Joe's presidency and congratulate the old dotard back before the ballots were even counted.
"Joe's response, according to the New York Post, was this:". . .
Democrats gleeful at the harassment of Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh
And right now, that's important. Threats, harassment and apparently killing seem to be the only game in town for Democrats. They can't sell the public on their ideas, so their rage is getting lethal. Monica Showalter
Monica Showalter "Democrats are starting to sound just a little demonic in their fanaticism for abortion, and it's obvious in their cavalier attitude towards the safety of the Supreme Court justices.
"Here's the White House setting the tone:
Karine Jean-Pierre on Brett Kavanaugh being forced out of a DC restaurant by protesters over his opinion:
— Benny Johnson (@bennyjohnson) July 8, 2022
"This is what a democracy is."
pic.twitter.com/A8bsOXNXuc
"But this latest refusal to condemn harassment in public places of a sitting Supreme Court justice was frankly shocking, given that just a month earlier, Kavanaugh had been the target of an actual assassination attempt, and had been subject to an unprecedented leak of private Supreme Court deliberations. He also was the target of leftist doxxers who spearheaded unprecedented -- and illegal -- protests at his private home. That, and the leak, have gone unpunished, and while the assassination attempt could easily be dismissed or given a slap on the wrist by a wokester prosecutor given the tone set. ". . .
While the court had no official comment on Kavanaugh’s behalf and a person familiar with the situation said he did not hear or see the protesters and ate a full meal but left before dessert, Morton’s was outraged about the incident. A rep for the chain steakhouse sent Lippman this statement:
“Honorable Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh and all of our other patrons at the restaurant were unduly harassed by unruly protestors while eating dinner at our Morton’s restaurant. Politics, regardless of your side or views, should not trample the freedom at play of the right to congregate and eat dinner. There is a time and place for everything. Disturbing the dinner of all of our customers was an act of selfishness and void of decency.”. . .
Jean-Pierre: ‘For sure’ White House approves protest of Kavanaugh steak dinner . . .“The president has been very clear that we condemn any intimidation of judges,” Jean-Pierre responded.
"Later, Doocy asked: “If these protesters can go to a justice’s house and they can go to a restaurant, where is it that you don’t think it’s appropriate for a group of protesters to go?”
“ 'You asked me about intimidation,” Jean-Pierre answered. “We condemn intimidation. We condemn any violence … Peaceful protest — people should be allowed to be — to be able to do that.”
“ 'In a restaurant?” Doocy retorted.". . .
