Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Tranny Sworn in as 4 Star Admiral

Levine is also the organization’s first-ever female four-star admiral.

Why are these militaristic rankings assigned to these type of positions to begin with?

Rather it was called an Admiral or a Czar??



Personally, calling it an Admiral seems awful demeaning to anyone who ever served in the Military.


Maybe not the Coast Guard....but the real military branches anyway.

Not really.

LMAO!!

Wouldn't one be required to hold the rank of 3-Star General before progressing to 4?

Sen. Ted Cruz did NOT put a "Hold" on this jews nomination, nor did Sen. Rand Paul. Neither did any other Republican. Not one fuggin' Republican will stop the nominations of these satanic screwups. Remember this the next time ANY U.S. senator reaches for your pocketbook for a donation to "fight for American values!".

How can someone that has NEVER served in either the USN or the USCG suddenly be an Admiral? That rank only exists in the maritime services and this thing has never served in either. I would never render a salute or a military greeting to this thing.

Its so refreshing to see that you are more anti-semitic than you are anti-trans.

The Chinese are perfecting hypersonic missiles and we're worried about how woke and gay our military is. Better learn to speak mandarin.

I don't know, but I imagine "It" passed through a Rear Admiral more than a few times.

It’s coming. This s**t has to be burned down. The midterms may save us. Or maybe not.

Deuteronomy 22:5: A woman shall not wear a man’s garment, nor shall a man put on a woman’s cloak, for whoever does these things is an abomination to the Lord your God.

Now thats funny!

That's the picture they show you for an erection lasting more than four hours.

Precisely. Fiddle while Rome burns. Heck, I’m not sure we can claim the moral high ground over our adversaries anymore. China iffy, Russia NOT.

And that’s the real shame of this all. When other countries look down as us as stupid, lazy, immoral and despise what the US represents they ain’t all wrong.

A strong, highly respected military is the foundation of our nation.

A senior Biden health appointee who made history when she became the nation’s highest-ranking openly transgender official has also become its first openly transgender four-star officer.

Rachel Levine, the U.S. assistant secretary for health, was sworn in Tuesday as an admiral of the U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps, a 6,000-person force that responds to health crises on behalf of the federal government, including administering coronavirus vaccines and delivering care after hurricanes. Levine is also the organization’s first-ever female four-star admiral.

The move was hailed by advocacy groups like the gay rights organization GLAAD, and health care leaders who called it a breakthrough moment.

The group representing public health officials “is here to support you and your team defend the health of all Americans!” Michael Fraser, CEO of the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials, wrote on Twitter.

Some conservatives, meanwhile, dismissed the swearing-in as a political gesture. “Biden gang playing quota politics with public health service,” Tom Fitton, president of conservative legal group Judicial Watch, wrote on Facebook.

In an interview, Levine stressed that her new position as an admiral was “not just symbolic,” and that she would take a leadership role in shaping the public health corps’ priorities. “I’m doing this because of my dedication to service … [and] with the utmost respect and honor for the uniform that I will be wearing,” Levine said, adding she would begin wearing the group’s blue uniform immediately.

The public health service is one of the nation’s eight uniformed services, although it is distinct from the six military services — including the Navy, Army and Air Force — by explicitly focusing on medical issues. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Commissioned Officer Corps, whose officers command vehicles that probe hurricanes and map the seafloor, is also a uniformed service.

The 63-year-old Levine, who was previously Pennsylvania’s health secretary and had not served in the commissioned corps, is now set to take a more prominent role in the service’s operations. She will be the sixth four-star admiral in the corps’ history, according to the Department of Health and Human Services.

Political appointees are regularly tapped for senior roles in the corps. Brett Giroir, Levine’s predecessor during the Trump administration, was sworn in as an admiral after his 2018 Senate confirmation. Vivek H. Murthy, the nation’s surgeon general, also serves as a vice admiral.

The long-running health corps traces its history to 1798, but the service was formally established by Congress in 1889. The oft-overlooked corps has struggled with retirements and visibility; it was slow to get access to its own supply of coronavirus vaccines, even as its officers helped deliver shots around the nation.

Administration officials touted the significance of Levine’s elevation to admiral, praising President Biden’s commitment to diversity and noting that the ceremony will occur during LGBTQ history month.

“Admiral Levine’s historic appointment as the first openly transgender four-star officer is a giant step forward toward equality as a nation,” HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra said in a statement.

Levine has been repeatedly targeted by conservative advocacy groups and politicians, who claimed her historic selection — as the first openly transgender official ever confirmed by the Senate — was a political gesture by Biden. At Levine’s confirmation hearing to serve as assistant secretary for health, Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) tried to draw a connection between genital mutilation and transition-related care, which prompted stern rebukes from Paul’s Democratic colleagues.

But Levine shrugged off questions about a similar backlash to Tuesday’s announcement, even as her appointment became a leading topic on conservative talk radio and social media on Tuesday. “I am not worried,” she said. “I’m such a strong proponent of diversity, equity and inclusion … and we have a president that is such a strong advocate of diversity, equity and inclusion as well.”

I love it.

The amount of credibility this administration is hemorrhaging is gargantuan.......and becoming less survivable every day.

Is Richard Simmons still alive? He should be nominated Sec Def.

Looks like he can fly. Maybe Sec. of the Air Force?

Take a look again of that picture does that look like a she? That is some crazy schit right there.

I love it.

I had a buddy who was in the Public Health Service. It is (or was) a pretty legit thing. The link to the military and the Navy goes back to before 1800. PHS grew out of the Marine Hospital Service. They were responsible for administering health care to the merchant marine as well as dealing with quarantining ships. That's why they got the military kit. My buddy John was based in Cincinnati, but relocated to Washington for a few years. He flew in and out of Wright-Patt on military transports.

John used to tell me about big cases he'd worked. There was a botulism outbreak somewhere in the Midwest where a truckload of frozen salmon was left at a Kroger's dock over Labor Day weekend and then the store manager decided to refreeze it and sell it. There was also a church social gone horribly wrong. Somebody with an infected cut on their hand sliced a bunch of lunch meat for the picnic and then stored it in a hot panel truck for 4 hours. John said the town heard ambulance sirens for 8 hours straight that night-- filled every hospital bed for several counties around and a lot of churchgoers never made it home.

It's funny somebody mentioned Herbert Hoover. John got into the Washington cocktail scene pretty heavy. They'd hit the bars after work and get thoroughly lubricated. One night, somebody at the table went off on Herbert Hoover. It was all the dirt we pretty well know to be true, but in 1965, these were the Secrets Man was Not Meant to Know. The other guys at the table had to shut the guy up for fear they'd all be picked up by the FBI. I think the loudmouth ended up disappearing in short order.

This was the same table of lounge lizards that made an important health discovery. They'd all go eat at the same Chinese restaurant on a pretty regular basis. They noticed that they were all getting weird symptoms from the food: sweating, palpitations, etc. There were some MDs in the group. They set to work on it. These were the guys who discovered that Chinese restaurants were liberally using MSG in their food. It was linked to a cluster of unexplained heart attacks nationwide.

It's not a Navy or Coast Guard Admiral - its a US Public Health Service Admiral.

Today's trivia facts courtesy of the freak show: There are EIGHT US uniformed services that have commissioned officers and a rank structure:
U.S. Army.
U.S. Marine Corps.
U.S. Navy.
U.S. Air Force.
U.S. Space Force.
U.S. Coast Guard.
U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps.
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Commissioned Officer Corps.

Listen carefully Otis: ADMIRAL ONLY EXISTS IN MARITIME SERVICES!!!! Get it? U.S Public Health Service doesn't have a damn thing to do with MARITIME SERVICES! And I served in the military for 25+ years so I know all about the uniformed services but my comment on ADMIRAL still stands!

I'd bet Cruz and Paul purposely remained silent in order to let the Dimocrats put another nail in their foot with this nomination and show the American public what idiots they are.
