The Milley Story’s Moral: Government
Corruption May Be Most Evident Within
Our Armed Forces

Original Article

The armed forces are our original bureaucracy and a mirror of our society. After the recent exposure of the treason of our armed forces Joint Chiefs of Staff, it became apparent that our knowledge of the current Department of Defense is quite limited. It is obviously a total quagmire of waste, fraud, and corruption that is designed to support itself rather than the soldier or sailor in the field or on the sea, perceptions to the contrary.

Comments:

When, not if, Republicans regain control of Congress and the White House, the first order of business will be to clean house in the Pentagon and Armed Forces. Priority #1.

This morning on Glen Beck show President Trump said he wanted every piece of military equipment down to the last screw brought home. Gen Milley told him it was cheaper to leave it behind than to bring it home! Says it all about the pentagon brass!

Milley and many other high ranking officers have chests covered in medals like childhood participation trophies. How many of our officers ever received medals which signified real and earned valor rather than for simple endurance in the service? I suspect the stars which almost all of our generals wear on their collars and shoulders represent nothing more than how long they've been kissing butt - because it sure seems like none of our current officers have EVER actually been in battle let alone won a war.

The evidence of such corruption has been out there for decades. Remember the stories of the $400 hammer or the $1200 toilet seat.

I think the key to Mark Milley is in that little blue rocker he wears on his pocket flap. The poor guy doesn’t read very well and when he went to Ranger Joe’s to buy his decorations, he mistakenly picked up the American “SPECIAL FORCES” when the only one he was authorized to wear is the Russian “SOCIAL FORCES.”

I was drafted in 1967, spent a year in Viet Nam then later in life worked 34 years for the Air Force. I can tell you without a doubt the Military is nothing but a 'Communist like' setup...Do what you are told or we smash you into the ground... Corrupt Officers are there, the good people seldom stand up, they hide to protect their career and retirement. Senior officers are Gods and always Act like it. Get on their good side and you win, get on their bad side and your career is in the toilet. There is NO accountability, blame always falls on some poor slob in the middle of the chain of command. It is impossible to get rid of bad apples unless they do something REALLY Bad...like Child Abuse/Wife Abuse, pornography on their computer, disobeying a direct order etc. Most bad behavior flies under the radar and infects the organization. Huge Mistakes like wasting money or incompetent management are rewarded because the narrative is always one of success no matter what happened. This is particularly true in huge contracts...contractors are sometimes very crooked and get away with shoddy work and get paid more to fix their screwups...I could go on for days but I think you get the picture. I KNOW all of govt. runs the same way and why we have Criminals like Dr. Fauxie running things...

Americans have naively trusted institutions and their respect for American culture and our Constitution. These days that trust is proven misplaced. What's more frightening is that there is no outrage, just the usual political "got'cha" from unserious politicians and their hack propagandists. Milley's actions strike at the heart of civilian command and control of the military. Pffft...who cares? Gee, General, thank you for your service!

The real moral of the story is that even traitorous behavior is no longer punished if you are a globalist / communist pig. There is no law.

Republicans are every bit at fault here. Primarily because Republicans support the military. Period, full stop. I can't speak to corruption, but I can speak to the inefficiencies and costs. The reason that there is a hammer that costs 400 is due to milspecs. Some genius writes a specification for a hammer, toilet seat, whatever. Thus, to meet the milspec, some manufacturer produces a product specifically to meet the spec. Here's an example. I had a system back in the 80's where a green light cost 8$, the yellow light costs 13$ and the red light cost 70$. The only difference was the color. Military supply and procurement is just a mess. Every branch has their own system to accomplish the same thing. Then there are the civilian personnel. In every office, there is one or two people that do the majority of the work. I was in a facility a while back and watched to people spend the entire day standing around talking. A third did nothing but play video games and browse the internet. Like any bureaucracy, the bigger and older it gets, the sloppily, more inefficient and corrupt it gets. Regulations, paper work and processes just pile up overtime throttling any real production.

Our military is being trained (brainwashed) into hating America and Americans. It will follow orders to turn their guns (and, if Biden is to be believed, it's F-15s and nukes on the American people). The purpose is to facilitate the coming communist/globalist totalitarian takeover. Communist China has already proven this model by doing the same thing with The People's Army. Think Tiananman.

Re: #1 - Something has been left out from your description of the Trump interview. The president states what he wants done, "down to the last screw," and his subordinate doesn't say yes, sir and comply but offers the opposite. What next? Did the former president not say whether reluctantly concurred or that Milley disobeyed an order from the C-i-C? There is a huge difference in not collecting a last screw, leaving behind $80+ Billion worth of military hardware, and blowing up weapons of war in place, lest they fall into the hands of terrorists. Was there no mention made of the president ordering the Milley to begin the destruction of the equipment to be left behind? No follow up questions from Beck, like "and then what?"

The left became impossible to parody somewhere in between “believe all women” and peak trans. The guys at The Babylon Bee are going to have to quit soon, if not because they cannot get any more bizarre than the left then because it seems like the left is using their headlines as an instruction manual. Here is what I am reacting to, and it is not made up. It is real. Not only did Joe Biden appoint a man who claims he’s a woman, and whose poor public health decisions led to thousands of unnecessary COVID deaths, as assistant secretary for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Yes, we’ve heard all about Joe Biden’s alleged vaccine mandate for private companies employing 100 or more people. It was all over the news even before he announced it on September 9. His announcement has jeopardized the employment of millions of Americans and increased worker shortages in critical domains such as health care. There’s only one problem. It’s all a mirage. Biden’s so-called vaccine mandate doesn’t exist — at least, not yet. So far, all we have is his press conference and other such made-for-media huff-puffing.

All cultures are important and valuable, but it is a facile mistake to think all cultures are equal. They are not. Cultures are not equal in terms of values, rights, ethics, morality, achievements, advancements, nor any other comparative feature. This isn’t good or bad, it isn’t a celebration or indictment, it’s just a basic observation. In the 15th century, among other differences European culture had developed different philosophies and military armaments than their western-hemisphere counterparts.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk on Friday suggested that his decision to move the automaker's headquarters from Fremont, California, to Austin, Texas, was inspired by a Democratic assemblywoman who tweeted, "---k Elon Musk," in 2020.

On Friday, the billionaire engineer responded to an article from Tesla news website Tesmanian.com titled, "Tesla Moved its HQ to Texas Following Explicit Offer from California Assemblywoman," saying, "Exactly."

One of the most remarkable twists in the pandemic is that a handful of NBA players have emerged as the most cogent and principled defenders of liberty, common sense, and basic civic decency in America. It’s a bit unexpected. In recent years, the NBA has most often landed in the political news cycle thanks to LeBron James’ disgusting habit of bowing and scraping before the Chinese Communist Party, or Steve Kerr’s refusal to breathe a word about the suppression of protests in Hong Kong or the oppression of Uighur Muslims while lecturing everyone on the evils of systemic racism and gun ownership in America.

The U.S. State Department told Breitbart News Tuesday it is unaware of the Americans Rep. Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) said died while trying to flee Afghanistan, including a three-year-old girl, a two-year-old boy, and the boy’s mother. During an appearance on Breitbart News Saturday over the weekend, Mullin attributed the deaths to President Joe Biden’s U.S. withdrawal, described as “fatally flawed” even by members of his party. Mullin, who has helped his team on the ground in Afghanistan evacuate U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents (LPRs), stressed that the State Department is aware of the identities of the deceased but refuses to report them to the public.

The new proposal will still allow the IRS to access information on accounts that transfer or receive more than $10,000 annually.

U.S. disarmament ambassador Robert Wood said that Washington is concerned about China’s possible deployment of hypersonic weaponry, and said the United States hadn’t developed a means of countering it. “Hypersonic technology is something that we have been concerned about, the potential military applications of it and we have held back from pursuing, we had held back from pursuing military applications for
