Watched this a while back- looked up some of the names- times- seems real.
It appears a certain group wanted a big spot of land and our Commander & Chief's were ok with the plan.


I'll watch Tucker tomorrow.

In the Podcast was a guy that explained where the censorship and internet control began. Very informative. He operates Foundation For Freedom Online web site. The site has many articles of how the internet trolls and spies work.

Truth.

The military is hurting for qualified recruits in a big way if what’s been reported is accurate.

First off, did either of you ever serve or is this just talk?

The job market is good right now. Economy turns down and it becomes harder to find good work and the military will become more appealing to high school graduates.

The answer to your first question is yes.

It’s good to know that we need a bad economy to fill our recruiting needs.

Here is my suggestion.

Go to your local recruiting office and ask them how things are going. To the career recruiters, ask them if they believe this is the worst recruiting environment that they have ever seen. Ask them how hard it is to make mission even with ‘greatly’ lowered entrance standards.

That is all you will need to know to convince yourself. Again, ask them.

——

IMO, the worst thing that this White House did to this country is make the military hyper political.

Middle America largely fills the military. Most people in the recent past didn’t join for benefits or college tuition. They did it for patriotic reasons. Those people are staying home now rather than being forced fed constant DEI PowerPoint presentations.

Recruiting is horrible right now. It’s not going to get better. If Trump wins, recruiting will recover quickly. Again, in my opinion.

Bingo.

The good guys ( the alpha male fighters) have been targeted marginalized and run out of the military they’re maybe 20 per cent. The rest are support with extremely low physical and mental health standards .its basically a giant welfare system for those that couldn’t make it with in the private economy

No decent hard charging young man wants to be part of this clown show

Afghanistan was the last straw when Biden left in disgrace and let those soldiers needlessly be murdered. The younger generation is waking up

I hate that the military has recruiters as a job now. The only job. When I went in back in 2001/02 - the recruiter had his regular job but was assigned recruiting duty. IOW - he could actually talk about life in the branch of service he's a part of. What to expect.

Son's recruiter was a 79R - according to him, that's the only job he ever held in the Army. (don't know how true that is but I didn't see anything on his chest to indicate otherwise, CIB or tab or anything)

I said I was concerned that the Army, in my experience, tends to train people for X but use them for Y - I saw it with linguists who spent their time working in the motorpool before getting to go for another language maybe and getting to a true MI unit.

He assured me the Army doesn't do that. Boy was a 12N, spent very little time on equipment but did get deployed to work as a 91B for a year.

I want recruiters who can talk to the life you'll live, not the marketing copy.

Not a "military expert" by any means, but I did serve 23years, 2 of which were as an ROTC instructor and MS1 "recruiter". I retired in 05.

I then spent an extra 16 years working for the army as a civilian, and retired DEC31 a few months ago.

The economy does play a role in recruitment and retention to some respect as does what's going on in world events. We saw similar down turns during the Balkans period for instance, good economy and a period of peace keeping/enforcement deployments. Some of the issues with recruitment are due to the requirements; physical/legal that a lot of the population just can't pass. I saw this back in 95-97 when working ROTC, a segment of the cadets couldn't pass the basic PT requirements to remain on scholarship, while others failed drug screening and background checks.

There was a very good article published a few months ago, clearly demonstrating 75% of our 18-24 year olds were not fit for military service, too fat, too dumb or too much drug abuse. Couple that with the close to 100K deaths/year of 18-45 year old that die from fentanyl poisoning and the democrats and CHICOMs are in on the deal.

Ribka, I realize you now hate the USA after spending a career collecting paychecks from it. No doubt you cash the check when it now shows up monthly too.


I speak to my kids often about military service and the options it provides. I would be proud if they served to protect your right to hate America while collecting a paycheck from it.

If the military is supposed to save us, it must first save itself. If there's a George Patton/Bedford Forrest in there somewhere, he sure is quiet. Won't need a military anymore if there's nothing left to defend and no money to conjure up a crusade against Iran to save the Jews. Air is leaking out of the balloon so slowly there's no sound of flatulence waving goodbye. Woke joke broke. We need Putiin!

Ribka, I realize you now hate the USA after spending a career collecting paychecks from it. No doubt you cash the check when it now shows up monthly too.


I speak to my kids often about military service and the options it provides. I would be proud if they served to protect your right to hate America while collecting a paycheck from it.
So you are either dumb or just gullible. I will also add that what kind of parent would encourage their child to sign up in this current chit show? The future for them will be death on a battle field against Russia and China, while having all the woke issues shoved down their throats. And dying for what? Because our wonderful illegal gov told you that Russia bad? Are you happy with America? Do you see it changing for the good and not changing back to the insanity it is currently? I dont, not enough people care anymore. Too many fat bastards that are content on working and spending the rest of their time on tiktok, oblivious to what is happening around them

My grandfather said the same thing before he died back in 2003. He served in WW II but said there was no way he would risk his life for what this place has become .
Sounds exactly like my pap as well. He was a great man. Multiple purple hearts in ww2. Lived, breathed and bled for this once great nation. Around the same time as yours, he stated almost the identical thing. Sad how long this has been happening. The slow bleed got us all, but has now been fast tracked into straight chaos

I hate that the military has recruiters as a job now. The only job. When I went in back in 2001/02 - the recruiter had his regular job but was assigned recruiting duty. IOW - he could actually talk about life in the branch of service he's a part of. What to expect.

Son's recruiter was a 79R - according to him, that's the only job he ever held in the Army. (don't know how true that is but I didn't see anything on his chest to indicate otherwise, CIB or tab or anything)

I said I was concerned that the Army, in my experience, tends to train people for X but use them for Y - I saw it with linguists who spent their time working in the motorpool before getting to go for another language maybe and getting to a true MI unit.

He assured me the Army doesn't do that. Boy was a 12N, spent very little time on equipment but did get deployed to work as a 91B for a year.

I want recruiters who can talk to the life you'll live, not the marketing copy.
My neighbor is active duty Army, his last duty station was in NY. He and his wife moved here a little over a year ago for recruiting duty. He's been to the sandbox three times, I've got a feeling he deployed somewhere a couple of weeks ago.

Exactly!! I’m a veteran and I discouraged my sons now 19 and 23 from ever joining the military. The way things are there’s no need to go looking for a war, it’s coming to us soon enough.

I’m a jarhead, 2004-2009. Joined out of patriotism. There is no way I’d want my kids serving a corrupt government that would at best, use them for some effort to line their pockets, or at worst, send them to fight and die in China when our government here is doing their best to emulate China’s.

The whole War on Terror has turned out to be a farce and a money scam for politicians and the IMC. It wasn’t so obvious to me when I was 18 like it is now.

Calvin I’m not slamming at you here at all but we all should be cognizant of the fact that our Military can provide world class education for those applicants and who qualify.

My Godson is in the Marine Corps and is a recent recruit. He’s now well into the electronics part of his education and he’s also into the application of AI which is going to be a very big part of the future of our military. I don’t think that he’ll have any problem getting gainful employment after leaving the Corps.

When he gets out he wants to use the G.I. Bill and go to Law School.

Summary:
Our military is a lot more than ground pounding.

Fishing guides in remote Alaskan villages are experts on the mainland economy because they watch foxnews lol

Most families live pay check to pay check in the lower US Alaskans like Calvin who work a few months of the year and who work part time live Mainly off of welfare checks and government handouts hence his optimism regarding the Biden economy

Same with my Pop. 2 Purple Hearts and a Bronze Star for shooting down a Messerschmitt 109 that was strafing his column in Germany. Did it with the Ma Deuce on top of the Sherman he was in all across Europe with Patton's 10th Armored Division.

If you watch the Shawn Ryan show at all on YouTube, watch how many SEAL and SF guys say the same thing that he interviews.

No any war since the Indian wars. The Spanish/American war wasn't to protect our nation nor any since. As a matter of fact we caused WW2 by our Spanish/American war winning us the Philippines which put us into conflict with Japan, and WW1 might very well have settled out much better without us involved and it would not have reignited into WW2. Any serious historian will tell you that WW1 and WW2 were the same war with a 20 year cease fire allowing everyone to rearm.

WW1 was winding down until we got into it at huge expense of money and men.

Not me personally, but my two distant cousins who walked 40 miles to enlist in the Army of Tennessee did their best to defend their homeland during the damyankee invasion. At least one of them survived- - - -I found his name in the Dickson County Tennessee property tax records from the 1880s.

IMO, the worst thing that this White House did to this country is make the military hyper political.

Middle America largely fills the military. Most people in the recent past didn’t join for benefits or college tuition. They did it for patriotic reasons. Those people are staying home now rather than being forced fed constant DEI PowerPoint presentations.

Recruiting is horrible right now. It’s not going to get better. If Trump wins, recruiting will recover quickly. Again, in my opinion.



Don't know how much, or fast, it would change under Trump.


Obama played the smart, long game.
He placed his demons throughout the upper echelons.
In the years since, they have infested everything, targeting sycophants for increased power and held back those who would oppose their policies.

A new Commander in Cheif would inspire many to enlist. Based off trust of, and
support for Trump. Once in, they would run into the mindset and culture Obama fostered.

My grandfather said the same thing before he died back in 2003. He served in WW II but said there was no way he would risk his life for what this place has become .
Sounds exactly like my pap as well. He was a great man. Multiple purple hearts in ww2. Lived, breathed and bled for this once great nation. Around the same time as yours, he stated almost the identical thing. Sad how long this has been happening. The slow bleed got us all, but has now been fast tracked into straight chaos



Same with my Pop. 2 Purple Hearts and a Bronze Star for shooting down a Messerschmitt 109 that was strafing his column in Germany. Did it with the Ma Deuce on top of the Sherman he was in all across Europe with Patton's 10th Armored Division.

If you watch the Shawn Ryan show at all on YouTube, watch how many SEAL and SF guys say the same thing that he interviews.
Thats really cool to hear. I do watch Shawn. Enjoy his show and alot of the guests stories

Truth.

The military is hurting for qualified recruits in a big way if what’s been reported is accurate.


First off, did either of you ever serve or is this just talk?

The job market is good right now. Economy turns down and it becomes harder to find good work and the military will become more appealing to high school graduates.
The economy is good? Where?


Fishing guides in remote Alaskan villages are experts on the mainland economy because they watch foxnews lol

Most families live pay check to pay check in the lower US Alaskans like Calvin who work a few months of the year and who work part time live Mainly off of welfare checks and government handouts hence his optimism regarding the Biden economy


Man do you have Calvin totally wrong.

You musta forgot your Q indoctrination.

The Patriots Are in Control

The Military is The Only Way

And

TRUST THE PLAN.

How many years did a military expert like you serve??

What happened to all of military they kicked out for not getting a toxic jab that never worked


The Sect of defense just stated he would never apologize for that mistreatment of servicemen


Everyone I know that served in the military are telling their children not to serve now

That would be 4.5.

Ribka, I realize you now hate the USA after spending a career collecting paychecks from it. No doubt you cash the check when it now shows up monthly too.


I speak to my kids often about military service and the options it provides. I would be proud if they served to protect your right to hate America while collecting a paycheck from it.




My Godson is in the Marine Corps and is a recent recruit. He’s now well into the electronics part of his education and he’s also into the application of AI which is going to be a very big part of the future of our military. I don’t think that he’ll have any problem getting gainful employment after leaving the Corps.

When he gets out he wants to use the G.I. Bill and go to Law School.

Summary:
Our military is a lot more than ground pounding.

Marines Follow Orders, would your Godson fire upon US Citizens, even you, if given that order.

Maybe you but not me.

I guess everyone in our military is suspected killers of US citizens. Maybe eliminating all of our military would remove that potential threat, according to you.

Wow. Good for your godson. He could be Biden’s kid if I didn’t know any better.

Phfukk lawyers. I hope when he gets to the fleet some drunk LCpl beats his ass into the dirt and the Squadron Gunny tells him to man up.

But that won’t happen. Because now the corps wears masks and makes lawyers.

Pfphagggssssss








What’s the difference between a lawyer and a bucket of scheiiiit?










The bucket

Bravely spoken.

I didn’t come to the internet to test my courage and I damn sure didn’t come to the internet to steal my queer little wannabe lawyer buddy’s accolades.

Tell your godson he don’t [bleep]’ rate. Queer.

That’s correct. You only come here to run your big mouth.

But again, you’re so bravely spoken behind your keyboard.

Sure. The country is currently under martial law.

Just like “your’s” is a real word.
