I guess I need to ask, why are they at all compliant? Why allow themselves to be isolated and groomed? Why not band together and refuse to be shut out? I’m having a hard time understanding why so many are allowing themselves to become part of evils vision! How can I hold onto hope knowing that so many are willing to sacrifice their own values for self preservation!?
I hope that military leaders are thinking long and hard about the implications of the last 6-7 months of the catastrophe that has become the United States...and remember that their oath of allegiance is to the Constitution.
I am certain that ALL military members DO remember their oaths to the Constitution. And to get orders like these evil orders must set off all kinds of alarms for them. I’m staying alert.
THIS IS MY RED LINE. If DOD bends the knee to this stupid and dangerous edict from the Trump regime, our democracy is over!! PEOPLE, please call your Representatives and Senators. They have to come back to Washington or file emergency lawsuits against the Trump regime. Perhaps the timing is to take the focus off Epstein, but even so, Trump must be stopped!!
When are we going to collectively say enough is enough and rebel? Why are other nations able to overthrow their leaders who suddenly decide to become authoritarians, through either rebellion or impeachment? The longer we let this go on, the worse it will be for us and the longer it will stick around.
It is insanely absurd to deny the historical evidence of a world in process of organization ever since WWII without which we would be speaking German. Why can't the cabal recognize the significance of this evolutionary inevitability??? Because they're all idiots??
It’s high time the men and women who work at The Pentagon, in the military and at the FBI have a mass protest and walk out. This will send a loud and clear message to this regime
Groupthink - The term "groupthink" was coined by Irving Janis, a social psychologist, in 1972. He introduced it in his book "Victims of Groupthink: A Psychological Study of Foreign-Policy Decisions and Fiascoes." Janis used the term to describe a psychological phenomenon where the desire for group consensus overrides people’s ability to critically evaluate alternative viewpoints or express dissenting opinions.
He drew inspiration from George Orwell’s "1984", particularly the concept of "doublethink," and crafted "groupthink" to evoke a similar sense of pressured conformity and flawed decision-making within groups, especially in high-stakes contexts like government or business.
Janis originally studied historical policy blunders like the Bay of Pigs invasion to illustrate how highly cohesive groups can make disastrous decisions due to the suppression of dissent, illusions of unanimity, and overconfidence. Makes me think 1984 should continue to be required reading in our schools.
They're tired of being criticized and mocked by world leaders. Sad attempt to control the narrative. This deepens the risk to our national security. Dangerous disastrous regime.
This is the most egregious example of close-minded thinking I have ever seen. Isolationism from discussion of pressing issues will surely lead to our demise.
Why do I sometimes wish, only lately, that another country would overcome our now-weakened security and take us over? But then I remind myself that being colonized might suck even more than the fascist government we are seeing develop here. So either way, we have to take back our government from within.

Hegseth is weak and incapable of thinking long and hard about the harm he’s done. I’m calling my Senators and Rep.

Thank you for this reminder! Yes we must call - & PROTEST!
I agree. This is where it ends for us.
Man, seriously, these jackasses gotta go.
I am glad I get to see some of your writing. Can’t afford a full subscription but love what I get. Stay safe!!

Well, this is terrifying
Yes, it is - completely.

The sight of this creep makes my skin crawl.

Thank you for sharing this information. I’m going to look for the book.
Me too!
Be accountable to yourself. Take responsibility. Acknowledge fear and take constructive action. And, help your neighbor if you can. We, the people!

When McCarthy went after the military, isn’t that when things finally backfired on him?
