Marines Urged by Woke Study to Use Gender-Neutral Terms in Boot Camp

8

ANALYSIS โ€“ In the most glaring example of wokeness in the military, which the Marine Commandant recently claimed wasnโ€™t an issue in our beloved Corps, jarheads are being urged not to use sir or maโ€™am in Marine boot camp.

According to the Marine Corps Times, this is seen as part of a sweeping effort to avoid ‘misgendering’ drill instructors. This is something all Marines know has been a huge and pressing issue at boot camp for decades, as we have so many non-binary and trans drill instructors.

Please note my sarcasm.

The recommendation is part of a massive, recently completed, 738-page academic report from the University of Pittsburgh, which was commissioned by the Corps in 2020.

Instead of sir or maโ€™am the 22 University of Pittsburgh Academics that concocted the study – headed by biologists Bradley C. Nindl and Mita Lovalekar, recommend aspiring privates call their superiors by their last names. 

The study notes that other military branches have made strides to “de-emphasize gender” by using other names instead. 

The Marine Corps Times reports:

Instead of saying โ€˜maโ€™amโ€™ or โ€˜sir,โ€™ recruits in these Services refer to their drill instructors using their ranks or roles followed by their last names. Gendered identifiers prime recruits to think about or visually search for a drill instructorโ€™s gender first, before their rank or role.

The far-left report is riddled with other woke ideas and includes a detailed study on improving gender integration at boot camp.

One important figure who thankfully appeared hesitant about this gender-neutral proposal was Col. Howard Hall, chief of staff for Marine Corps Training and Education Command.

Hall and others maintain that even if the Corps implements the change at its training facilities, recruits will then need to re-adapt to again addressing senior officers by ‘sir’ or ‘ma’am’ when they enter the fleet, as Marines in the real world would likely not enforce the rule.

 Hall told the Marine Corps Times, in slightly mangled terms, and some big words:

Honestly, thatโ€™s not a quick fix. What are inculcating in our young recruits that will or will not be reinforced when they graduate and enter the fleet Marine force? So again, we want to avoid any quick-fix solutions that introduce perturbations down the line.

And yes, while we all want to avoid โ€˜perturbationsโ€™ down the line, more importantly we want to avoid sheer idiocy right now.

Maybe our Marine officers should learn to be blunter.

This study also shows why the military needs to stop relying so much on outside consultants and academics, and their idiotic, ideologically-driven studies, to guide its policies.

Biden’s Lies About Hunterโ€™s Foreign Influence Peddling Are About To Blow Up In His Face

ANALYSIS โ€“ Where thereโ€™s smoke thereโ€™s fire. And there is a lot of smoke surrounding Joe and Hunter Biden. It is increasingly clear that Joe Biden has repeatedly lied about his involvement in, and knowledge of, his son Hunterโ€™s overseas influence peddling businesses.

And with Bidenโ€™s Department of Justice (DoJ) and FBI dragging their feet with documents requested by congressional investigators, an official impeachment inquiry may be the only way to get to the truth.

And that official inquiry may be coming very soon.

Republicans could open an impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden over ties to his son Hunterโ€™s shady and unethical business entanglements when Congress reconvenes on September 12.

In the final presidential debate of the 2020 U.S. election between President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joseph Biden, moderator Kristen Welker asked Biden: โ€œthere have been questions about the work your son has done in China and for a Ukrainian energy company when you were vice president; in retrospect, was anything about those relationships inappropriate or unethical?โ€

โ€œNothing was unethical. My son has not made money in terms of this thing about, what are you talking about, China,โ€ Biden replied.

Biden also said he never discussed business with his son.

Well, to put it in Biden terms, that was all a bunch of malarkey.

Now, nearly three years later, Hunter has rebutted Joe Bidenโ€™s assertions directly. In court testimony in late June, Hunter acknowledged that he had been paid substantial sums in China โ€“ the first official confirmation that this was the case.

This direct contradiction creates a major problem for the White House, and Republicans insist thereโ€™s a lot more to find out.

โ€œA lot of the things the president said about his familyโ€™s shady business dealings, weโ€™re proving every day that theyโ€™re not true,โ€ Republican James Comer, Chair of the Oversight and Accountability Committee, said.

An impeachment inquiry is the next logical step to find out what is true.

The Epoch Times (ET) reported: โ€œHouse Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) said that initiating an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden would be a โ€˜natural step forward.โ€™” This, following unresolved questions from the House Oversight and Accountability Committee’s investigations into the Biden family’s business dealings.

The speaker said on Monday that the impeachment inquiry could start soon. McCarthy added that an impeachment inquiry would provide Congress “the apex of legal power to get all the information they need” to investigate whether President Biden misused his office to assist family businesses.

ET continued:

McCarthy said on Monday that the inquiry was needed to overcome stonewalling of congressional investigators looking for transparency about the Biden family’s business records following testimony from former Hunter Biden associate Devon Archer that President Biden met with son Hunter Biden’s business partners during the time he was vice president, as well as concerns raised by whistleblowers at the IRS regarding Hunter Biden’s tax records.

The House Oversight and Accountability Committee has so far subpoenaed six different banks, receiving thousands of bank records of businesses and individuals connected to Joe Biden’s family members.

According to ET:

Those records showed that more than $20 million in payments from foreign sources have been made to the president’s relatives, including Hunter Biden, and their business associates while Mr. Biden was acting as U.S. vice president from 2009 to 2017.

Romanian, Chinese, and Russian nationals were among those making payments to the Biden family and their associates. The records also revealed that the funds were funneled through a network of at least 20 shell companies before being transferred to Biden family members.

An inquiry doesnโ€™t mean the House will impeach Biden. But it does give Republicans far more legal power to force reluctant Biden DoJ bureaucrats and others to come forward with the truth.

Congress Reveals Stunning New Information on January 6 Attacker

7

Members of the U.S. House Judiciary Committee investigating the federal governmentโ€™s response to the January 6, 2021 incidents at the U.S. Capitol now reveal that a pair of pipe bombs planted at the Capitol Hill offices of the Republican and Democrat parties may have been a diversion to distract law enforcement from other events.

They also reveal that while the bombs contained live explosives, it does not appear the timers were operable, and the FBI may not even have interviewed the witnesses who discovered them.

In response, Chairmen Thomas Massie (R-KY), Andy Biggs (R-AZ), Jim Jordan (R-OH), and Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) sent a letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray โ€œrevealing new information surrounding the FBI’s investigation into pipe bombs placed near the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and Republican National Committee (RNC) on January 5, 2021,โ€ the Judiciary Committee reports.

โ€œOn June 7, 2023, the Committee on the Judiciary conducted a transcribed interview of Steven D’Antuono, the former Assistant Director in Charge of the FBI Washington Field Office (WFO),โ€ the Committee announced.

โ€œIn that role, Mr. D’Antuono oversaw the WFO’s investigations into the events at the Capitol on January 6, 2021, including the placement of pipe bombs near the headquarters of the DNC and RNC on January 5, 2021. Mr. D’Antuono’s testimony provided new information about the FBI’s investigation into the pipe bombs and reinforces our concerns about the FBI’s handling of this matter,โ€ the Committee revealed.

In his transcribed interview, Steven D’Antuono โ€œsuggested that the FBI could not even determine whether the placement of the pipe bombs was a ‘diversionary’ tactic for the events of January 6,โ€ the Committee also revealed.

Dโ€™Antuono testified:

MASSIE: Are you familiar with the diversion thesis, that these were set up to be a diversion?

Dโ€™ANTUONO: Yeah, I’ve heard people say that, but if you watch โ€“ I’ve done a lot of media reports. I was trying to get the information out there, tips and stuff like that, right. I will not speculate. I’m not going to speculate on that. I think that’s speculation, at best, when people say that it’s a diversionary tactic. We’ll never know until we find the person that actually did โ€“ or persons that actually did it. So I can’t speculate on that. Could it have been? Yes, that’s one theory. Obviously, it’s one theory. But is it the only theory? I don’t โ€“ I really don’t know.

MASSIE: It looks like the head Capitol Police [sic] believes it was a diversion.

Dโ€™ANTUONO: So Steve Sund, chief of police, yes. I believe he wrote that in his book. Again, it’s pure speculation. There’s no intelligence โ€“ look, I ran the investigation for 2 years until I stepped out. We don’t know. We don’t even know the gender at this point as to โ€“ we could speculate, and there’s a lot of people that are speculating as to the gender.

MASSIE: How confident are you that the individual depicted in the surveillance footage on January 5th set both of those pipe bombs in place?

Dโ€™ANTUONO: So the video that we saw, I feel confident that by the video that we have, that that person planted those. 

D’Antuono also testified on the โ€œviability of the pipe bombs, which, according to reporting, were deemed to be โ€˜inoperable,โ€™โ€ the Committee reports.

โ€œD’Antuono referenced a report from the FBI laboratory in Quantico, Virginia, that the pipe bombs were viable, and ‘they could explode, and they could cause harm or death,’โ€ the Committee notes, adding. โ€œD’Antuono also acknowledged that the timer used on the pipe bomb could not have detonated the pipe bomb given the time already elapsed between placement and discovery.โ€

He testified:

MASSIE: Well, let me ask you this: Do you think it was technically possible for a kitchen timer . . . that has [a] 1-hour duration . . . to detonate a bomb 17 hours later?

Dโ€™ANTUONO: No, I don’t. And I saw the same kitchen timer as you. I agree. I don’t know when they were supposed to go off. Maybe they weren’t supposed to go off. We can’tโ€”we don’t know. We honestly don’t know, and that’s some of the pain . . . .

D’Antuono’s testimony โ€œprovided additional details about the FBI’s use of geofencing technology to identify the pipe bomb suspect,โ€ the Committee revealed.

He testified:

Dโ€™ANTUONO: So the โ€“ there’s a lot of phone data that came in. Yes, I’ve seen the same video. I’ve watched the same video. We put out the same video. It looks like a phone. Was it a real phone, a not a real phone, was it a ruse? Was it a โ€“ you know, I picked up my phone several times at meetings going, oh, yeah, I got to take this call, and walk out, right. The phone’s not on, right. So was the person just sitting there trying to pretend like they’re on a bench taking a phone call? We don’t know until we find the person, right, and ask them those questions.

We did a complete geofence. We have complete data. Not complete, because there’s some data that was corrupted by one of the providers, not purposely by them, right. It just โ€“ unusual circumstance that we have corrupt data from one of the providers. I’m not sure โ€“ I can’t remember right now which one. But for that day, which is awful because we don’t have that information to search. So could it have been that provider? Yeah, with our luck, you know, with this investigation it probably was, right. So maybe if we did have that โ€“ that data wasn’t corrupted โ€“ and it wasn’t purposely corrupted. I don’t want any conspiracy theories, right. To my knowledge, it wasn’t corrupted, you know, but that could have been good information that we don’t have, right. So that is painful for us to not to have that. So we looked at everything.

D’Antuono also testified that he did not definitively know if the FBI had interviewed the individual who discovered the pipe bomb at the DNC.

He testified:

MASSIE: So just to . . . put a fine point on it, you do not know whether they interviewed the person that discovered . . . the [bomb] at the DNC?

Dโ€™ANTUONO: I don’t know.

The Committee notes โ€œD’Antuono conceded that it would be ‘investigation 101’ to interview the individuals who discovered the bombs, yet he was unable to confirm whether the FBI had taken this basic investigative step.โ€

He explained:

MASSIE: So โ€“ but the person who found โ€“ you either haven’t identified the person who found the second pipe bomb, or did you?

Dโ€™ANTUONO: I โ€“ honestly, sir, I don’t know the granularity of everything my agents and analysts did in that matter. It’s just โ€“ it’s a whole host of stuff that’s going on. As the [Assistant Director in Charge], as like any senior leader, I’m getting briefed on things, and that part never came up, so โ€“

โ€œD’Antuono’s testimony raises concerns about the FBI’s handling of the pipe bomb investigation, more than 890 days following the placement of the pipe bombs. To date, the FBI has failed to respond to the Committee’s requests for a briefing regarding the investigation,โ€ the Committee concludes.

President Trumpโ€™s Memorial Day Messages: A Legacy of Honor and Respect

2

This Memorial Day, as we gather with family, fire up the grill, or visit our local cemeteries and memorials, it’s worth remembering the leaders who never lost sight of the true meaning behind the day. President Donald J. Trump has always placed Americaโ€™s fallen heroes at the center of his message, offering powerful words and sincere gestures that reflect deep respect for our military and their families.

Throughout his presidency, President Trump used Memorial Day not for politicsโ€”but for patriotism. Year after year, he stood before veterans, Gold Star families, and active-duty troops with one purpose: to honor the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for this nation.

Hereโ€™s a look back at some of his most moving Memorial Day tributes:


2017 โ€“ Arlington National Cemetery

President Trump delivered his first Memorial Day address at Arlington National Cemetery, laying a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and offering a solemn promise:

โ€œWords cannot measure the depth of their devotion, the purity of their love, or the totality of their courage.โ€

It was a speech that reminded the countryโ€”and the worldโ€”that America remembers.


2018 โ€“ Arlington Again, and a Call for Prayer

Returning to Arlington in 2018, President Trump spoke of sacred ground and permanent peace:

โ€œWe are gathered here on the sacred soil of Arlington National Cemetery to honor the lives and deeds of Americaโ€™s greatest heroes.โ€

That year, he issued a proclamation declaring Memorial Day a Day of Prayer for Permanent Peace, calling on Americans to pause at 11:00 a.m. for a national moment of prayer.


2019 โ€“ Speaking from the USS Wasp in Japan

While abroad visiting troops, President Trump addressed sailors aboard the USS Wasp in Yokosuka, Japan:

โ€œToday, the unbreakable resolve of our great American heroes is inspiring our nation to achieve new heights.โ€

Even halfway around the world, the president made sure Memorial Day was observed with honor, reflection, and gratitude.


2020 โ€“ Fort McHenry Amid Crisis

During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, while others canceled public observances, President Trump stood tall at Fort McHenry in Baltimore, honoring the brave and the fallen:

โ€œWe remember the young Americans who never got the chance to grow old, but whose legacy will outlive us all.โ€

He reminded us that even in times of hardship, we must continue to honor the past and those who gave everything for our freedom.


A President Who Never Forgot

In every one of these speeches, President Trump put Americaโ€™s heroes firstโ€”not soundbites, not political spin. His words carried the weight of gratitude and the clarity of purpose. Whether in Arlington, Baltimore, or aboard a Navy vessel, he stood firm in his belief that our nation owes eternal respect to those who served and sacrificed.

This Memorial Day, letโ€™s take a moment to reflectโ€”not only on the brave men and women who gave their livesโ€”but also on the kind of leadership that never forgets them.

President Trump didnโ€™t just speak about honoring our military. He lived it. And millions of Americans still remember.

Congress Looking Into Virginia Prosecutor After Threats To Top Trump Staffer

4

Congress is taking action after a Virginia prosecutor seems to have allowed liberal activists to cultivate threats against a top Trump official and his children.

The U.S. House Judiciary Committee report Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) has โ€œsent a letter to Parisa Dehghani-Tafti, prosecutor for Arlington County and the City of Falls Church, demanding information about her ignoring threats to White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Stephen Miller and the intimidation of his family.โ€

โ€œThe Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) determined that a left-wing activist likely violated state and federal anti-doxing laws when she posted flyers depicting Miller’s face and publicizing his home address. The FBI sought a search warrant for Wien’s phone; however, U.S. Magistrate Judge Lindsey Vaala, who has previously donated to the presidential campaigns of Presidents Obama and Biden, denied the FBI’s request,โ€ the committee reports.

โ€œAccording to investigators involved in the case, Dehghani-Tafti has been โ€˜stymying the investigationโ€™ into the threats made against the Miller family. Dehghani-Tafti’s conduct suggests that she is willing to not only ignore threats of political violence against those with whom she disagrees, but will actively side with those making the threats,โ€ the committee reports.

โ€œThe Miller family deserves the same protections afforded to all Americans, particularly when it comes to feeling safe in their own home. Their safety is especially important in light of recent left-wing political violence against prominent Republicans, and the election of an attorney general in Virginia who fantasizes about murdering the children of his political opponents,โ€ the committee adds.

In the letter to Dehghani-Tafti, Jordan writes, in part:

Since the 118th Congress, the Committee on the Judiciary has been conducting oversight of politically motivated prosecutorial actions of state and local prosecutors. On September 11, 2025, a left-wing activist, Barbara Wien, posted flyers in her Arlington, Virginia neighborhood depicting White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Stephen Miller’s face and publicizing his home address. While posting the flyers, Wien walked past Miller’s house and attempted to intimidate his wife, who was sitting on the front porch, by indicating she was watching the Miller family,โ€ the committee further reports.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) determined Wien likely violated state and federal anti-doxing laws and sought a search warrant for her phone. However, U.S. Magistrate Judge Lindsey Vaala, who has previously donated to the presidential campaigns of Presidents Obama and Biden, denied the FBI’s requestโ€ the committee writes.  On October 1, 2025, Virginia State Police secured a warrant from a state court judge.

After determining that Wien had misled investigators during an interview on October 1, the FBI sought another search warrant. Once again, Magistrate Judge Vaala denied the request. On October 2, 2025, in the matter pending before a court in Arlington County, you made ‘an unusual request’ by siding ‘with the defense’ in requesting that the judge overseeing the matter limit the search warrant and the information that state police could share with the FBI, which the judge so ordered. According to investigators involved in the case, you have been โ€œstymying the investigationโ€ into the threats made against the Miller family.

Additionally, you reportedly support a left-wing ‘activist group’ known as Arlington Neighbors United for Humanity (ANUFH). Wien is a member of ANUFH and the flyers she posted displaying the Millers’ home address also featured a QR code linking to ANUFH’s Instagram account. ANUFH has previously left threatening chalk messages outside the Millers’ home and praised the violent anarchist network Antifa.

Your unmistakably partisan actions suggest that you are willing to not only ignore threats of political violence against those with whom you disagree, but will actively side with those making the threats. The Miller family deserves the same protections afforded to all Americans, particularly when it comes to feeling safe in their own home. Their safety is especially important in light of recent left-wing political violence against prominent Republicans, and the election of an attorney general in Virginia who fantasizes about murdering the children of his political opponents.”

Trump Appeals To Supreme Court Over Colorado Banning Him From Ballot

1

ANALYSIS โ€“ This could be huge. Donald Trump is appealing to the U.S. Supreme Court โ€“ which he helped shape as president โ€“ following a ruling in Colorado to bar him from its presidential primary ballot over his engagement in an “insurrection.”

Coloradoโ€™s all Democrat appointed, left-leaning Supreme Court has ruled 4 to 3 that former President Donald Trump is disqualified from holding office again because he engaged in an “insurrection” over the U.S. Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021.

Republicans see the Colorado court’s decision as yet another egregious example of the Democrats’ ongoing campaign of election interference against Trump.

The majority justices’ decision reversed a Denver district judgeโ€™s finding last month that Section 3 of the 14th Amendment did not apply to the presidency.

The three justices who dissented did so on procedural grounds. In three separate dissenting opinions, each based on different legal arguments, they all concluded that the Colorado Supreme Court had overstepped its authority.

Coloradoโ€™s decision will go into effect on Jan. 4, 2024 โ€“ the eve of Coloradoโ€™s March 5 Republican primary.

In the wake of the decision, Team Trump came out swinging. As The New York Times reported:

โ€œUnsurprisingly, the all-Democrat appointed Colorado Supreme Court has ruled against President Trump, supporting a Soros-funded, left-wing groupโ€™s scheme to interfere in an election on behalf of Crooked Joe Biden by removing President Trumpโ€™s name from the ballot and eliminating the rights of Colorado voters to vote for the candidate of their choice,โ€ a campaign spokesman, Steven Cheung, said. โ€œWe have full confidence that the U.S. Supreme Court will quickly rule in our favor and finally put an end to these un-American lawsuits.โ€

Similar challenges in New Hampshire, Michigan and Minnesota have all been dismissed in court, because the idea is nonsense. The courts there also decided that the Constitution is unclear about whether Section 3 of the 14th Amendment applies to the president.

As Trumpโ€™s lawyers have already said he will appeal the verdict. The shock ruling will put an exceptional case before the U.S. Supreme Court โ€“ possibly being forced to decide the question for all 50 U.S. states.

The U.S. Supreme Court is made up of nine justices, six of whom are conservatives, or “constitutionalists,”ย three of whom were appointed by President Trump.

European Parliament Member Warns COVID-19 Pushed Western Democracy to the Brink of Collapse

Christine Anderson, a member of the European Parliament and a member of Germanyโ€™s conservative Alternative for Germany (AfD) party says that freedom, Democracy, and the rule of law are on the brink of collapse in Western nations and the Covid-19 pandemic is partially to blame.

“We are now violating what we thought was the foundation our societies were built on,โ€ Anderson said.

Anderson recently completed a tour in Canada visiting the Freedom Convoy and decided to take the opportunity to attend this yearโ€™s Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) which is known to host thousands of conservative supporters, activists, and lawmakers to draw attention to the threats currently facing Western democracy.

The Freedom Convoy is a series of ongoing protests and blockades in Canada against Covid-19 vaccine mandates and restrictions. The convoy was originally created to protest vaccine mandates for crossing the United States border but later evolved into a protest about oppressive Covid-19 restrictions in general.


Freedom Convoy 2022, Ottawa, Canada (February 12, 2022) via Wikimedia Commons

The German politician noted that her concerns are focused on Western democracy, admitting she doesnโ€™t expect governments in China, North Korea, or even Russia to value ideals like freedom and rule of law.

โ€œI hold the Western democracies to a higher standard, but we are now violating what we thought was the foundation our societies were built on and a really scary thing is that all these Western democracies seem to be in lock-step right now with whatever agenda they are trying to implement and push,โ€ she explained. 

The right-leaning EU parliament member says it’s time for the people to hold countries accountable for their actions. 

โ€œWhat is Democracy all about?โ€ Anderson questioned. โ€œDemocracy is all about the people telling the government what to do, not the other way around.โ€

Throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, Americans were forced to shutter businesses, close schools, and blindly agree to take newly released vaccinations. And if anyone dared speak against the latest narrative regarding vaccines or the virus? They could expect to be ridiculed, questioned, and ostracized by friends, family, co-workers, and even leaders in government.

โ€œThe whole narrative about ostracizing people was frustratingโ€ฆthe whole narrative of โ€˜my choice my bodyโ€™ was gone. People were ridiculed and scapegoated,โ€ the German politician reflected.

In 2021, President Joe Biden insulted Americans who had yet to receive โ€œthe jabโ€ conveniently forgetting the fact he had cast doubt on the vaccines while Donald Trump was in the White House.

โ€œIf youโ€™re not vaccinated, youโ€™re not nearly as smart as I thought you were,โ€ Biden said.

President Biden was an outspoken critic of former President Trumpโ€™s Operation Warp Speed program which is largely credited for helping create and distribute Covid-19 vaccines.

โ€œThe way [then-President Donald Trump] talks about the vaccine is not particularly rational,โ€ 

Biden said per the Western Journal. โ€œHeโ€™s talking about it being ready, heโ€™s going to talk about moving it quicker than the scientists think it should be moved. โ€ฆ People donโ€™t believe that heโ€™s telling the truth, therefore theyโ€™re not at all certain theyโ€™re going to take the vaccine.โ€

โ€œAnd one more thing,โ€ he said. โ€œIf and when the vaccine comes, itโ€™s not likely to go through all the tests that needs to be and the trials that are needed to be done.โ€

However, while Covid-19 was able to highlight some government corruption Anderson saysย this dangerous assault on democracy has been happening for decades.

โ€œWeโ€™ve seen a full-blown gaslighting of the people.โ€ Anderson said. โ€œNow, fundamental rights are being discussed as though they are privileges that the government grants or withholds depending on the citizenโ€™s behavior.โ€

But all hope is not lost. The German politician was optimistic that more people have โ€œwoken upโ€ over the past three years and are ready to push back.

โ€œThe so-called pandemic highlighted the leftโ€™s pressure campaign to redefine certain concepts,โ€ Anderson reckoned. โ€œIt highlighted their ridiculousness and their willingness and determination to push back against people, disenfranchise them, and take away their rights.โ€

Anderson noted that her home country came dangerously close to repeating history by enacting legislation that would have forced unvaccinated citizens to pay for their own medical treatments or even be turned away for treatment altogether. 

Germanyโ€™s public healthcare system ensures free healthcare for all.

โ€œMy country has been there historically,โ€ Anderson warned. โ€œThis is exactly the stuff totalitarianism is made of. I had hoped that the Germans had learned their lesson, but I have to say they have not learned a damn thing.โ€

However, despite what some could call insurmountable odds Christine Anderson said sheโ€™s ready to take a stand against anti-democratic efforts whenever she sees it and refuses to let history repeat itself.

โ€œI will always say what I believe to be true. When I see parallels between another totalitarian regime I will be there and I will point it out.โ€

US Navy Vet Back Online as Pro-Russia Disinformation Queen

0

ANALYSIS โ€“ Just months after the Department of Justice (DoJ) opened an investigation on her for posting leaked Pentagon intelligence on Ukraine,ย a US Navy veteran-turned-pro-Russian propagandist is back online.ย 

Sarah Bils, a divorced 38-year-old New Jersey native, and former Navy technician, was unmasked in April after falsely posing as a Russian Jew reporting from occupied Ukraine. And deplatformed shortly thereafter by X (formerly Twitter) and YouTube.

But the attractive Bils, who had a security clearance while in the Navy,ย is back online on both platforms, as well as Telegram, spewing anti-American and pro-Putin propaganda under the name ‘DD Geopolitics.’ย 

She has repeatedly posted since the relaunch faithfully parroting the Kremlin line. Bils has also encouraged followers to donate to the Russian army and the brutal Wagner Group mercenaries.

In a bizarre rant on September 4, she lashed out at the United States, blaming it for ‘constant meddling’ and provoking the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Pekka Kallioniemi, an expert on Russian disinformation at the University of Tampere in Finland, questioned how Bils was able to restart her pro-Kremlin operations so soon after the opening of that DOJ probe.

‘I find it surprising that the FBI appears to be turning a blind eye to the online activities of people who are clearly working on behalf of America’s enemies,’ he said.

Well, it is called freedom of speech, and as we have seen under the Joe Biden regime, one personโ€™s disinformation is anotherโ€™s strongly held political convictions. 

The best way to combat false information in a free society is with truth, not government or social media censorship.

Meanwhile, as the Daily Mailย reported:

It comes after a ten-month investigation into her online activities by volunteers from the pro-Kyiv open-source intelligence group, ‘The UnIntelligence Agency.’

She has already garnered more than 200,000 followers across X – formerly known as Twitter – YouTube, and the social media messaging platform, Telegram, which draws in a wide range of guests.

They include Moscow’s envoy to the UN and Alexander Dugin, a far-right political philosopher, described as the Russian president’s ‘brain’ on foreign policy.

‘Donbass Devuskha hasn’t pulled a disappearing act, she’s just had a fabulous makeover,’ Bils wrote earlier this summer. 

Bils began her rise as the preeminent English-language pro-Russian disinformation queen just eight months before she was demoted and discharged from the Navy in November 2022. She had been serving since 2009.

While the Navy hasnโ€™t provided reasons for her demotion and discharge, divorce papers filed in the state of Washington show that prior to her discharge she had been suffering from a variety of health problems.

Still, many suspect that her pro-Russia postings, and possible connections to Jack Teixera, the ex-U.S. Air National Guardsman who leaked a treasure trove of highly classified materials online, were related to her being demoted and dumped from the Navy.

Soon thereafter, DoJ opened an investigation into Bils earlier this year when she distributed stolen, classified documents about U.S. arms deliveries to Ukraine.
