Trump just fired the chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff (2nd African American after Colin Powell to hold the highest ranking military position)

[Uachet]

Literally replaced him with a DEI hire, and of course non black people are celebrating the move

Yes, a Lt. Gen, so 3 star replaced the 4 star. He is White though, so that is all Trump cares about this time around.

Yet you are the one cursing and angry because I asked you to support your position with links and a short blurb? Do you really not see yourself clearly. Are your actions on this thread obscured from you? Are you so unable to maintain control over your emotions, that you will even expose yourself as a hypocrite by your very own actions?

Sounds good, guy.

NGMI.

 

[Uachet]

Would rather someone be correct and reasoned, but rude with sharp elbows.

You were not correct though. The ones you put up were already disqualified, by mainly being his croonies he used and removed. The only one you had up there that was similar, was Comey. Who btw, was placed in office by the very President that Trump hates the most, Obama. So your evidence is insufficient so far, in my opinion. Perhaps place up evidence that actually supports your position, and I will be willing to consider it.

 

[Uachet]

Sounds good, guy.

NGMI.

Yet again, exposing the truth of who you are.

From the book, The Power Broker, about Robert Moses:

Book is often passed around Silicon Valley and Wall Street circles.

The next morning at 9 A.M., a fleet of chauffeured black Packards roared

up to the curb on Fifth Avenue in front of the Arsenal. Out of them stepped

Moses and a squad of his top Long Island aides. These men would be running

the Park Department from now on. Moses announced. Leading them up the steps

of the Arsenal, which he announced would henceforth be depart- mental

headquarters, he assigned them offices.

Moses had given these men their orders. They were to weed out immediately-

those headquarters employees who would not or could not work at

the pace he demanded. The weeding out would be accomplished by making all

employees work at that pace-immediately.

Unlike the commissioners and their personal secretaries, most headquarters

employees were protected by civil service, but that didn't help them

much. Men who lived in the Bronx were told that henceforth they would be

working in Staten Island; men who lived in Staten Island were assigned to the

Bronx. Or they were given tasks so disagreeable they couldn't stomach them.

Women were treated no better. One ancient biddy, accustomed to spending her

days at the Arsenal knitting in a rocking chair, refused to admit she was over

retirement age and gracefully accept a pension. When a search failed to produce

a birth certificate to disprove her story, she was ordered to work overtime-all

night. Every time she tried to rest, she was ordered to keep working. She retired

at 2 A.M

And then...

Which leads to...

i don't see how you can't conclude that the democrats intended to give the election away. political parties spend billions to forecast every possible scenario, so there's just no way they didn't know exactly what was going to happen.

I used to think like this when I was younger: "All these people are geniuses. And even when they lose they planned it. And you can't comprehend The Man's strategy but I'm observant - I see it."

But join any large successful organization and you'll see from the inside all the idiocy, waste, in fighting, pure luck, bad timing, etc.

Then you'll know these people aren't the diabolical geniuses you thought.

Welp.

I don't think they're geniuses man. Not Kamala and the people like her on that level. I'm not some youngster out here listening to david icke or some other conspiracy nut. And I don't think Kamala planned to lose, but the decisions are made at levels much higher than her.

But if ordinary people out here could see what was going to happen, and accurately predict it even though none of us are in politics, then there's no way people who've made a career in that field couldn't see the same thing.

I don't just let people off the hook easy and ascribe major fukk ups like this to incompetence "idiocy, waste, in fighting, pure luck, bad timing, etc." Those are the explanations you accept when you're a young man and don't know any better, or just aren't paying attention cause your mind is on other shyt. But adults, men especially, are supposed to be critical thinkers.

Just found out that a new memorandum from the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD), dated March 5th, 2025, directs all acquisitions executives through the military to stop including language which requires contractors to agree that they will not use segregated facilities as a condition of being a DOD contractor.

Specifically the memorandum bars the use of FAR 52.2220-21 Prohibition of Segregated Facilities. This is a provision which dates back to 1965 and has been updated by a series of Executive Orders over the years adding additional forms of restricted segregation. The most recent change came in 2015 when sexual orientation and gender identity were added via executive order to the list of prohibited forms of segregation. The history and evolution of the Prohibition of Segregated Facilities is discussed here in the Federal Register.

Presumably it is the addition of gender identity which drove the OSD to ban usage of the Prohibition of Segregated Facilities in DOD contracts. Maybe? But the 2015 addition of gender identity to the Prohibition could simply have been revoked. It was added in 2015 and it could be removed in 2025. What they did here, however, is remove everything. So military contractors will no longer have to warrant they don’t have racially segregated facilities or facilities segregated by religion or ethnicity or anything else.
