John Cauthen- American Thinker
America’s armed forces are the bulwark of national security. The nation’s commander-in-chief, front and center on the world’s stage, exhibited a weakness our country has seldom experienced. To continue with faddish academic programs like DIE and CRT, with no bearing in military reality, we invite disaster for our nation and our allies." . . .

"President Biden’s debate performance on June 27 shattered any remaining illusions of a lucid and vibrant commander-in-chief at the helm of our nation. Instead, the American people witnessed the ramblings of a diminished and frail man. That his handlers, a delusional Democrat party, and complicit national media obfuscated and lied about the president’s physical and mental state for the past three years is now beside the point. Rather, we should be assessing the magnitude of this debacle for America’s standing on the world’s stage and our national security.
"Every world leader, friend and foe alike, viewed the president’s performance. No doubt our enemies — notably China, Russia, and Iran — saw opportunity to accelerate their dangerous agendas with renewed vigor. America’s friends, likewise, must have been left wondering if the United States is capable of countering the world’s rogues and their machinations.

The vacuum of American leadership, embodied by a debilitated president, will invite more malfeasance and amplify an already perilous era of conflict and war. The one institution that offers any hope of deterrence is a strong, unified armed forces able to project influence and power abroad. Unfortunately, America’s armed forces have been compromised by the pernicious ideology known euphemistically as diversity, inclusion, and equity (DIE, also DEI). This leaves our nation weaker yet.
"DIE’s infiltration into the military has largely occurred in obscurity, cloaked by pleasant-sounding words and phrases designed to resonate with the casual observer. After all, who would oppose a diverse and inclusive organization? The reality, however, is quite the opposite. DIE and its corrupt sibling, Critical Race Theory (CRT), are designed to classify and sort individuals by immutable identity characteristics like race, sex, and sexual orientation.?"...

Secret Service Director: Oh my God - American Thinker . . ."And not one of those officers and snipers thought that just maybe the assassin might have climbed up on the most obvious and dangerous sniper perch in the area? None of them saw the citizens frantically pointing at the roof and yelling “he’s up there with a rifle?”
