The military takeover began decades ago. Eisenhower warned us.

The military was the very first thing they got their claws on. I don't know why people have this fairy tale idea that the armed forces was always impervious.

If you're looking for "based soldiers", they're the older NCO'S keeping their mouths shut for the time being.

The bureaucrats have been allowing the soyboys in the ranks because they're the ones who take admin jobs, not front line duty. Obama did this to strengthen the bureaucracy. The pen really is mightier than the sword.

The upper brass is really who you need to keep an eye on. Enlisted work their way up. Junior officers study their way up. Field grade officers politic their way up.

There is a ceiling for good men. I know many senior ranks, I don't know any political officers. I frankly don't want to.

If your appointment must be confirmed by a corrupt Congress, fuck you.

Good point. But, honestly, now that we see how deep the corruption is and that the media is controlled by deep state (where the military is one arm of the deep state) ... how is anyone supposed to see what has been obfuscated until recently?

These people only showed their hand in the last 4 years. We had no idea that there were people on this planet for whom the laws do not apply and can just enter high security american prisons, turn off video cameras and get rid of witness evidence and kill people that threaten them (epstein)?

Endless middle eastern conflicts as we leave our border open for 30 years was a bit of a tipoff, I'd think
