“Pete Hegseth has demanded the active duty military cut 20 percent of its four-star generals in a further move toward Donald Trump's mandate to cut government waste. Hegseth also told the National Guard to shed 20 percent of its top positions and directed the military to cut an additional 10 percent of its general and flag officers across the force, which could include any one-star or above or officer of equivalent Navy rank. The cuts are on top of more than a half-dozen top general officers that President Donald Trump or Hegseth have fired since January, including the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. CQ Brown Jr. They also have fired the only two women serving as four-star officers, as well as a disproportionate number of other senior female officers [who were disproportionately promoted] …” DailyMail article: https://mol.im/a/14681413 Serious about crackers. | |||

Pulitzer Prizes, the so-called “journalism” award equivalent to the Nobel Peace Prize. “Cracker Jack” prizes are more meaningful. --------------------- DJT-45/47 MAGA !!!!! “Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum videtur.” "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on, or by imbeciles who really mean it." — Mark Twain “Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.” — H.

This is long overdue. From the drawdown in the 90s, the Army reached about 1.2M AD/NG/USAR and we had about 106 GOs. Today, we’re at around 1.3M but with 230 GOs. We more than doubled our GOs on the rationale that with a smaller force, we’d have more technology and programs requiring monitoring and command and control. We also increased the size of the E9 strength commensurate with those additional command positions (the E9, specifically the Command Sergeant Major, increased as the population of the officer ranks increased, not just the GOs- but O6 command level billets as well). I wonder if DoD will cut the senior enlisted position that worked alongside that GO? --------------------- DJT-45/47 MAGA !!!!! “Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum videtur.” "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on, or by imbeciles who really mean it." — Mark Twain “Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.” — H.

I don't think we had that many four-stars in the entirety of World War II. (There were lots of ones, twos and threes.) And, also unlike WWII, most or all of the present ones are little more than politicians wearing military uniforms. We need more Chesty Puller, Curtis LeMay, W.T. Sherman, et al types and a lot fewer Mark Millies. (spelling on purpose)This message has been edited. Last edited by: egregore, | |||

In WW II the Army had 13 four- and five-star generals, peaking in 1945. _________________________ “Remember, remember the fifth of November!" | |||

Supreme Court upholds military transgender ban (for now) It's not a decisive victory, but it's still a victory.
By and of necessity, the military "discriminates" against lots of people. There are certain mental and physical standards that have to be met. | |||

I'm not sure I'd call it discrimination. If you're NOT deployable, which by definition a person receiving continuous hormone treatments is not, you shouldn't be eligible to serve. We don't even allow people currently taking ADHD medication to enlist. __________________________________ NRA Benefactor I lost all my weapons in a boating, umm, accident. http://www.aufamily.com/forums/ | |||

Scumbag Judas Pence keeps getting propped up by the leftist media. What a surprise.  Q | |||
|
| goodheart |
I'm a little surprised--more than a little--that Pence wants to die on this cross. It's the globalist view, to hell with the working people of the United States. _________________________ “Remember, remember the fifth of November!" | |||

^^^ Remember when he told Tucker that the plight of the American people was not his concern, when asked why we should continue funding Ukraine? The SOB made it very clear then. Q | |||
