Biden’s DoD and the JCS are more concerned with woke issues, ie, transgenders, LGBT whatevers, offensive language, designated use of pronouns, and in my opinion then the health of our troops and their families. REMF General Miley and REMF Sec Def Austin, the general no one ever heard of before appointed, as well as many of the current service heads, are incrementally starving our military members. Apparently ‘shame’ is considered a misnomer in Biden’ radical left leadership in our new ‘woke’ inspired military.
Military.com – Reports November, 2021…
About 14% of enlisted active-duty families reported “low” or “very low” food security in an annual 2020 survey, according to Denise Hollywood, the chief community and programs officer for Blue Star Families.
Enlisted troops appear to be suffering the most. A total of 29% of the most junior enlisted ranks of E1-E4, a segment that includes more than 570,000 people and more than half of all enlisted in the military, reported facing hunger over the past year, according to the advocacy group Feeding America, the largest hunger relief organization in the U.S.
In all, 160,000 service members struggled to provide food for themselves or their families, the group recently reported. A pair of Army studies found the problem was made worse by the COVID-19 pandemic. One of those studies found that on one Army base, one in three reported being food insecure in 2019. The second study, done at a different Army base, saw that out of a sample of nearly 5,000 soldiers, the COVID-19 pandemic caused the percentage of food-insecure troops to almost double from 16% to 31%.
The term food-insecure means a person or family finds themselves unable to reliably get enough affordable and nutritious food.
Of the 199 food banks Feeding America has across the U.S., 74 have a specific food assistance program for active-duty military families, and 34 are near a base and regularly help service members.
Marialito Boatlift The Perfect Analogy For Democrat’s Open Border Policy
WFM – August 2, 2023
We might look at the Biden administrations ‘open border’ policies as reminiscent of another leftist President, Jimmy Carter.
On April 20, 1980, the Castro regime announced that all Cubans wishing to emigrate to the U.S. are free to board boats at the port of Mariel west of Havana, launching the Mariel Boatlift.
The first of 125,000 Cuban refugees from Mariel reached Florida the next day. Castro, to facilitate the so called ‘Marialito boatlift’ released the most dangerous felons from Cuban prisons. The result of this little slight of hand by Castro, convicted murderers, rapists, child molesters and every other type of criminal felon were released on to the U.S. mainland.
The CIA and most law enforcement entities had the suspicion, since proven correct, that Castro’s release of those felons was the result of an orchestrated ‘op’ by the Soviet intelligence apparatus, heavily involved in Cuba at that time.
Violent crimes, mainly in Florida and California, at the time, spiked as a result. The leftist inspired ‘water walkers,’ who largely applauded the ‘Marialito boatlift’ went silent as the diastorous results of this criminal migration took root.
We might now ask how long until the disasterous result of this current failed leftist inspired incursion swamps law enforcement and threatens what little freedoms we have left. The law of unintended consequences seems a fitting descriptor for the ill thought policies of the leftist hive mind which is easily manipulated by those who would selfishly profit from the destruction of our republic.
