West Point Goes Woke

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Well, West Point had a good run, didn’t it? Once a beacon of prestige and elite training, this institution produced some of America’s most outstanding leaders. But times have changed. Today, West Point is just another woke joke, churning out young Marxists with contempt for the very nation they’re supposedly preparing to defend.

West Point has reached the point of no return, particularly after the exposure of their latest “woke” agenda. Believe it or not, but they’re now offering degrees in “Equity and Diversity.” And no, unfortunately, this isn’t a joke.

Here’s the information about the woke course from West Point’s own website:

Diversity & Inclusion Studies Minor

Diversity and Inclusion Studies (DISM) is an interdisciplinary minor administered by the Department of Behavioral Sciences & Leadership that consists of humanities and social science courses. America is a multicultural polity and demands knowledgeable and pragmatic thinkers who understand the range of human experiences. The Diversity and Inclusion Studies Minor (DISM) exposes cadets to varied perspectives & methodologies for understanding and studying the humanities. By carefully drawing from existing courses in multiple departments, the DISM complements and enhances the core curriculum, academic majors, and several West Point Centers and committees. The DISM helps fulfill the Superintendent’s and Dean’s vision for diversity and inclusion at West Point. Moreover, the DISM at West Point offers cadets a framework for critically and creatively thinking about the broader impact of diversity and inclusion at the individual, organizational, societal, and/or global levels. It also provides our cadets opportunities to pursue diversity and inclusion in intra-, multi- and inter-disciplinary ways.

House Passes Amendment to Slash Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin’s Pay to $1

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The House Wednesday passed an amendment proposed by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene that would slash the salary of Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin to $1.

Republican lawmakers voted to cut Mr. Austin’s salary from more than $221,000 annually because of their discontent with his job performance.

“I’m proud to let you know my amendment to FIRE Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin just passed on the House floor. Under his failed leadership, our military is being destroyed, and he doesn’t deserve to serve any longer,” Ms. Greene, Georgia Republican, posted on X. “This is the first time in the 118th Congress the Holman rule has been used to hold a Biden official accountable. It’s time for more.”

The rule allows amendments to appropriations bills that would reduce the salary of or fire specific federal employees, or cut specific programs.

Ms. Greene said in a video on social media that Mr. Austin deserved to be fired because of the botched U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan and military recruitment being at an all-time low. (Read more from “House Passes Amendment to Slash Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin’s Pay to $1” HERE)

Biden Impeachment: Managers Outline Plan of Attack to Take Down President

/0 Comments/in , /by

House Republican leaders released an outline of their plan to carry out an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden.

Shortly after the second GOP presidential debate, James Comer (R-KY), Jim Jordan (R-OH), and Jason Smith (R-MO) shared a memo explaining the rationale and evidence for attempting to impeach Biden.

“The purpose of this inquiry—and at this stage, it is just that, an inquiry—is to determine whether sufficient grounds exist for the Committees to draft articles of impeachment against President Biden for consideration by the full House,” the chairmen wrote. “This impeachment inquiry will enable the Committees to gather information necessary to assess whether President Biden has engaged in impeachable conduct.”

Republicans opened several investigations into the president and his son, Hunter Biden, as soon as they gained control of the House and won leadership of various committees in 2022. Since then, the Committee on Oversight and Accountability, the Committee on the Judiciary, and the Committee on Ways and Means have revealed several allegations of corruption, bribery, and fraud involving then-Vice President Joe Biden and his son.

The primary foundations for the House’s impeachment inquiry, which House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) announced earlier this month, are that the Biden family and its business associates have received millions from foreign sources, that Joe Biden was personally involved in his family’s business dealings, and that the president lied about his involvement.

Biden Admin Proposal Would Take Kids Out of Foster Homes That Don’t Affirm Their ‘Gender Identity’

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) released a proposed rule Wednesday that would require states to “transfer” foster children from families who do not support their “gender identity,” a copy of the rule showed.

Under the proposed rule, children in the foster care system will only be placed with families who the HHS classifies as a “safe and appropriate placement,” meaning families must use a child’s “identified pronouns” and “chosen name,” the rule said. “Safe” families will undergo extensive training to “provide” for the child’s “needs,” and the state will transfer fostered children away from families who do not “support” their “self-identified gender identity and expression,” upon completion of an investigation.

“In certain cases, we anticipate that a report from a LGBTQI+ youth that they feel their placement is not safe or appropriate should merit a response of great urgency from the agency,” HHS wrote in the proposed rule. “For example, given the extensive evidence that LGBTQI+ youth who face bullying, discrimination, or harassment related to their sexual orientation or gender identity are at significantly increased risk of violence or self-harm, we anticipate that agencies should respond with urgency when a LGBTQI+ child raises concerns that a placement that is not safe and appropriate.”

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie criticized former President Donald Trump during the second Republican Party primary debate on Wednesday night.

Christie made the remarks at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, California.

“And I want to look at camera right now tell you, Donald, I know you’re watching,” Christie said. “You can’t help yourself. I know you’re watching, okay? And you’re not here tonight — not because of polls and not because of your indictments — you’re not here tonight because you’re afraid of being on the stage and defending your record.”

“You’re ducking these things,” he continued. “And let me tell you what’s going to happen. You keep doing that, no one up here is gonna call you Donald Trump anymore. We’re gonna call you Donald Duck.”

Experts’ Republican Debate Verdict: Trump ‘Still in Driver’s Seat’ After Simi Valley ‘Circus’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Another Republican debate without 2024 frontrunner and former President Donald Trump meant another debate with candidates fighting for second place, The Post’s experts agreed Wednesday.

“They all have trouble because of Trump,” said former Sen. Alfonse D’Amato. “Trump was smart by not going. The debate was a circus. Nobody really scored on him.”

“Without Trump there, it’s really like the seven dwarfs are missing their hero,” agreed Democratic consultant Chris Coffey. “No clear win is a win for Trump, which may be a win for Biden.”

“No impact on President Trump’s nomination,” concurred E. O’Brien Murray, a campaign strategist for Republicans and conservative Democrats. “Too many GOP candidates divide the vote.”

While the dynamic of the race may not have been fundamentally altered, our experts took note of the attacks on Trump as “missing in action” by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. (Read more from “Experts’ Republican Debate Verdict: Trump ‘Still in Driver’s Seat’ After Simi Valley ‘Circus’ HERE)

DOJ Delayed Hunter Biden Charges Ahead of Midterms to Not ‘Shoot Themselves in the Foot’: Whistleblower Docs

/1 Comment/in , /by

Federal prosecutors looking into tax fraud allegations against first son Hunter Biden made a point of delaying a charging decision in the case until after last year’s midterm elections to avoid “shooting themselves in the foot,” according to newly released whistleblower documents.

The revelation came from IRS supervisory agent Gary Shapley’s typed notes following a Sept. 22, 2022, meeting between investigators and prosecutors, during which the Delaware US Attorney’s Office and the Justice Department’s Tax Division “made the decision not to charge until after the election.”

“They said why should they shoot themselves in the foot by charging before,” Shapley wrote in his notes from that day.

The message was relayed to the investigative team by Assistant US Attorney Lesley Wolf, Shapley wrote in an affidavit dated Sept. 20, 2023. (Read more from “DOJ Delayed Hunter Biden Charges Ahead of Midterms to Not ‘Shoot Themselves in the Foot’: Whistleblower Docs” HERE)

New Texts Show Hunter Biden Complaining His Money Is ‘All Gone’ and Seeking Dad’s Help

/0 Comments/in , /by

Hunter Biden told his uncle James in December 2018 that he had run out of money and needed financial assistance from his father, according to new text messages revealed in IRS whistleblower documents.

The now-first son told James Biden that the millions of dollars he’d scooped from his business deals abroad was “all gone” and he could no longer afford school tuition for his three daughters or even basic living expenses.

“I can work when I’m in NYC all day every day for the next 3 months,” Hunter said in the Dec. 29, 2018, message to his uncle.

“But I can’t pay alimony w/o Dad or tuitions or for food and gas. Really it’s all gone.”

“I can go make it up in 15/20 days I’m sure, but he’s basically made it clear that he’s not paying alimony b/c Mom made clear that she won’t do it,” he added. (Read more from “New Texts Show Hunter Biden Complaining His Money Is ‘All Gone’ and Seeking Dad’s Help” HERE)

Nikki Haley Tells Vivek Ramaswamy ‘Every Time I Hear You I Feel a Little Bit Dumber’ (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley told fellow Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, “Every time I hear you, I feel a little bit dumber for what you say” on stage during the second GOP debate Wednesday.

Haley’s comments came after Ramaswamy answered a question about the Chinese-based social media app TikTok.

Ramaswamy defended his use of TikTok, telling the debate moderators that Republicans “need to win elections and part of how we win elections is reaching the next generation of young Americans where they are.”

“We’re only going to ever get to declaring independence from China, which I favor, if we actually win. So while the Democrats are running rampant, reaching the next generation three to one, there’s exactly one person in the Republican Party which talks a big game about reaching young people, and that’s me,” Ramaswamy added.

Ramaswamy then said that advisers in his administration would include “the best people, the best and brightest in this country, whatever age they are,” including “many of the people on the stage.”
