WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump abruptly fired Air Force Gen. CQ Brown Jr. as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff on Friday, sidelining a history-making fighter pilot and respected officer as part of a campaign led by his defense secretary to rid the military of leaders who support diversity and equity in the ranks.

The ouster of Brown, only the second Black general to serve as chairman, is sure to send shock waves through the Pentagon. His 16 months in the job had been consumed with the war in Ukraine and the expanded conflict in the Middle East.

“I want to thank General Charles ‘CQ’ Brown for his over 40 years of service to our country, including as our current Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. He is a fine gentleman and an outstanding leader, and I wish a great future for him and his family,” Trump posted on social media.

Brown’s public support of Black Lives Matter after the police killing of George Floyd had made him fodder for the administration’s wars against “wokeism” in the military. His ouster is the latest upheaval at the Pentagon, which plans to cut 5,400 civilian probationary workers starting next week and identify $50 billion in programs that could be cut next year to redirect those savings to fund Trump’s priorities.

Was watching this on the news. They were so very intent on making sure they did not state the true reason why he did this. Couching it in a manner of like questioning his choices, but not outright stating he did it because the General is Black. It is just annoying how complicit a lot of the news media is on these issues too, in the manner they handle discussing the issues.

Chief of the the navy also got axed too. Political arrest will start happening within 18 months. Civil unrest shortly there after, I hope y'all didn't really think guantanamo was for a handful of Venezuelans.

Winter is coming.

He was confirmed with 98-0 Senate vote too when he got the job.

If you're black and in a federal role with any type of visibility, your days are numbered.

You know what trip me out about some of you guys. So many of you are so focused on getting hits on other Black people, I rarely have ever seen any of you actually talking about solutions to the actual problems. It is almost like you think inaction, outside of insults, is all you need to do. There is no talk about how to deal with what you state you fear is happening, but there is a lot of energy on throwing digs that accomplish nothing.

I will give you some examples of what you can be doing.

1. Contacting your representatives.
2. Getting your money in order.
3. Getting a projectile weapon or two to protect yourself and your family.
4. If you have the funds, setting up an emergency system to get them out of the country.

There is more that can be done. One thing that will not help, besides giving some a cathartic feeling of relief, is your incessant need to turn and attack other Black people whenever Trump does something. That will not help resolve anything in the short or long term. It is just pure emotionalism on display, in a time when cool heads and strategic planning needs to be the focus.

Ok, so are you trained in survivalism? I have training in it already, and also training in firearms. Though, that did not answer my question. Do you have any firearms to protect yourself with?
