The Pentagon is shredding all records and evidence of its DEI agenda.
The Pentagon is in "absolute disarray" with "generals scrambling" due to the incoming Trump administration's plans to fire woke senior military leaders who prioritized diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) over combat readiness, according to sources. One source compared it to a hornet's nest being kicked over and that "DEI pages are starting to disappear off the main websites." The scramble to hide evidence comes as President-elect Donald Trump's transition team has begun gathering names of senior officers who pushed DEI. ... Shoemate, who is soliciting names of senior military officers from his vast network of service members and veterans, said in a phone interview with Breitbart News, "They are interested full speed on DEI." "They want to lop off the head of the Marxist snake. And so that's the primary criteria that I'm trying to focus on," he said. Shoemate said he is differentiating between officers who have promoted DEI to the detriment of the force, and those who simply have gone along with it. "We're looking for those who have aggressively pursued DEI policies, and then potentially been the worst about retaliation against troops for the COVID mandate and stuff like that."A shredding company truck also pulled up today in front of the corrupt criminal DOJ:
(Anti-)Scientific American's woke incompetent Editor in Chief has resigned after attacking half of the country as fascists -- and having turned the once-respected journal into a gonzo leftwing agitprop site little different from Pink News.
But her greatest sin was claiming there was scientific proof that sex-change hormones reduced suidiciality -- there is no such proof at all, just repetitions of this dogma by Big Chop -- and making all other kinds of anti-scientific claims about the wonders of cutting off children's healthy body parts so that they can stop feeling uncomfortable in their bodies and begin a new life of feeling uncomfortable in mutilated, chemically-castrated bodies with a lifetime dependency on drugs and further surgeries. See the link for that.
Earlier this week, Laura Helmuth resigned as editor in chief of Scientific American, the oldest continuously published magazine in the United States. "I've decided to leave Scientific American after an exciting 4.5 years as editor in chief," she wrote on Bluesky. "I'm going to take some time to think about what comes next (and go birdwatching), but for now I'd like to share a very small sample of the work I've been so proud to support (thread)." Helmuth may in fact have been itching to spend more time bird watching--who wouldn't be?--but it seems likely that her departure was precipitated by a bilious Bluesky rant she posted after Donald Trump was reelected. In it, she accused her generation, Generation X, of being "full of fucking fascists," complained about how sexist and racist her home state of Indiana was, and so on. "Fuck them to the moon and back," she said of the dumb high school bullies supposedly celebrating Trump's victory.
Whether or not Helmuth's resignation was voluntary, it should go without saying that a few bad social media posts should not end someone's job. If that were the whole story here--an otherwise well-performing editor was ousted over a few bad posts--this would arguably be a case of "cancel culture," or whatever we're calling it these days. But Helmuth's posts were symptoms of a much larger problem with her reign as editor. They accurately reflected the political agenda she brought with her when she came on as EiC at SciAm--a political agenda that has turned the once-respected magazine into a frequent laughingstock. Sometimes, yes, SciAm still acts like the leading popular science magazine it used to be--a magazine, I should add, that I received in print form every month during my childhood. But increasingly, during Helmuth's tenure, SciAm seemed a bit more like a marketing firm dedicated to churning out borderline-unreadable press releases for the day's social justice cause du jour. In the process, SciAm played a small but important role in the self-immolation of scientific authority--a terrible event whose fallout we'll be living with for a long time. When Scientific American was bad under Helmuth, it was really bad. For example, did you know that "Denial of Evolution Is a Form of White Supremacy"? Or that the normal distribution--a vital and basic statistical concept--is inherently suspect? No, really: Three days after the legendary biologist and author E.O. Wilson died, SciAm published a surreal hit piece about him in which the author lamented "his dangerous ideas on what factors influence human behavior." That author also explained that "the so-called normal distribution of statistics assumes that there are default humans who serve as the standard that the rest of us can be accurately measured against." But the normal distribution doesn't make any such value judgments, and only someone lacking in basic education about stats--someone who definitely shouldn't be writing about the subject for a top magazine--could make such a claim. Some of the magazine's Helmuth-era output made the posthumous drive-by against Wilson look Pulitzer-worthy by comparison. Perhaps the most infamous entry in this oeuvre came in September 2021: "Why the Term 'JEDI' Is Problematic for Describing Programs That Promote Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion." That article sternly informed readers that an acronym many of them had likely never heard of in the first place--JEDI, standing for "justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion"--ought to be avoided on social justice grounds. You see, in the Star Wars franchise, the Jedi "are a religious order of intergalactic police-monks, prone to (white) saviorism and toxically masculine approaches to conflict resolution (violent duels with phallic lightsabers, gaslighting by means of "Jedi mind tricks," etc.)" You probably think I'm trolling or being trolled. There's no way that actual sentence got published in Scientific American, right? No, it's very real.
Here we have the @washingtonpost's Jen Rubin saying "Republicans want to kill your kids, it’s actually true."

@BillMelugin_ Reminder: Despite losing the election & polls repeatedly showing Americans favor mass deportations & restrictions on the number of migrants in the country, the Biden/Harris admin is still allowing up to 1,500 migrants to enter the US every day via the CBP One cell phone app & up to 30,000 per month to fly into the US via the controversial CHNV mass parole programs. Trump & his border czar, Tom Homan, have said they will terminate both of these programs on day one. The programs have allowed approx 1.4 million migrants into the U.S. in less than two years. At current staffing levels, ICE does not have the resources to track down & remove those who overstay their parole grants via these programs. The incoming Trump admin has said they will focus first on deporting public safety threats , criminals, and the more than 1 million illegal immigrants who have final orders of removal (already ordered deported by a judge after their cases were heard, but are still here).

Regarding the man who dresses as if he were a woman and insists on being able to make women feel uncomfortable in isolated spaces: Mike Johnson sounds very cuckish. Yes, he did offer his own private belief that a man is a man and a woman is a woman, but (and you can always ignore everything someone says before the "but," which is a conjunction used to mean "that bullshit out of the way, here's my real position") he wants to treat this Person Place or Thing with "kindness and dignity," which I take to mean "he will be allowed to use the women's bathrooms and locker rooms." Nancy Mace, however, says she'll fight this all the way.

She is the most blatant example of how these people never had any principles, they were just playing the GOP for saps. In personal conversation, French, Goldberg, Rubin, Kristol are probably more liberal than Hillary, but they lacked the charisma to flourish in mainstream circles.

Now, I thought that governments always burned documents when they lose. Shredding isn't quite as good - you just get some people who thrive on jigsaw puzzles, and rebuild the documents. That's much harder to do with ash.
Has anyone checked if there are air quality alerts in the DC area, for smoke damage? I'm not sure where to look for those.

Nothing in the federal government is ever 100% gone. You would be amazed what stays around.
Back when I was with DOD every copier/fax ordered had to be able to keep an image internally of the last 500 documents that had been copied or faxed to it.
When NCMI got the contract for all of the Navy computers the contract included a 99 year cloud storage requirement.
Stuff stays everywhere and in places most people would not even think to look for it so they could destroy it.

Election is over. I can't vote for him again.
Yes, triage is in order for the sequence of deportations, but even when they get to "children and abuelas", the process has to continue.
Each tranche poses its own unique costs on America and its citizens. Just because you wrap one or more in sympathetic emotionalism doesn't mitigate the tangible, intangible, and significant costs each imposes.

As the saying goes, it's not the crime, it's the coverup...How much illegality are they trying to erase by destroying these documents? They might consider 20 years in Fort Leavenworth preferable to the death penalty for treason.

Umm, how is the Pentagon just able to shred documents without oversite or approval from the National Archives?
Also there are records retention laws that I'm sure apply here.

Meanwhile in the Pentagon...
"General, I have an update on the Progressive Dream. Them/They is being shadowed by a ship of unknown origin."
"Just a second, Major."
A portly man in an overtight class A uniform was working a screwdriver against a tower p.c. With a grunt, he leveraged the panel off and ripped the hard drive out, throwing it on the highly polished floor and stomping it repeated.
"Sir, you do realized that you just destroyed government property."
"I did no such thing, the insurrectionists did it."
"This is a controlled area, how did they get in?"
The flag officer's thinning hair was matted with sweat. "I'll come up with a story later, the important part is that my files are safe."
"No, sir, they're all backed up remotely. Probably on a server in Colorado."
The general slumped into his office chair with a muffled thud, and his chair careened across the smooth floor in a framed picture of Pentagon Drag Queen Story Hour, recently removed from the wall. The impact shattered it.
"Damn it, Major, I've got bigger problems than passenger liner filled with fags and trannies!" Almost as soon as he realized what he said, he raised a hand over his mouth.

"The Pentagon is shredding all records and evidence of its DEI agenda."
Crime or cover-up, you should be convicted.
Trump can/should terminate (at a minimum) those who forced DEI over competence and imposing prejudice. He should, furthermore, prosecute those who discard/destroy records. Pick your poison, Deep Staters, but rest assured you don't have the nation's support in giving you cover.

Pentagon Releases Records Management Strategy; Kathleen Hicks Quoted
by Jane Edwards, May 24, 2023
The Department of Defense has debuted a new strategy aimed at improving its records management activities as part of efforts to achieve and maintain decision advantage.
“This DoD Records Strategy seeks to employ the latest technologies, such as artificial intelligence and cloud-based services, to reduce the administrative burden associated with records management, while creating an environment where DoD records are automatically identified and captured, expertly curated, and systemically governed,” Deputy Defense Secretary Kathleen Hicks wrote in a foreword to the document.
Hicks, a 2023 Wash100 awardee, said the strategy builds on the goals included in the DOD Data Strategy.

DEI is/was federal agency policy. There are so many federal directives, articles, etc. but the point is if they were/are doing their jobs, there's only so much that can be Clintoned &/or Bidened.

I was a records manager for a while, and electronic files are treated as paper with retention requirements and file plans, tables and rules, etc.
All backed up remotely. To delete files one has to have a record review performed if it is on the schedule. You can't just wipe it with a cloth.

"It's weird but it almost seems like government officials destroying documents is illegal"
MAYBE 1-2 years for destroying evidence (that was required to keep) better than 10 to life if the evidence was revealed?

Yup... have the military on the border, and guarding detention sites, freeing up Border Patrol to do raids.
Much rather have the Active Military doing that, then more illegal invasions of various UN Member states around the world.

>>Pretty sure the DOD is not covered by the record retention acts... because it would be WAYYYYYY too much paper.
Literally every document is digitally created and stored, I don't care about the paper, I care about the documents.
So when they say they are "shredding documents," what they mean is that they are deleting files and any archival copies that exist.
As noted, The Wood Chipper of Justice is going to get quite a workout over the next four years.

As a matter of justice, Tim McBride should not be able to force his way into the Capitol Hill ladies' room. As a matter of politics, most voters rightly (and passionately) reject trans ideology. This should not be a difficult issue for congressional Republicans.

Former Obama CIA director John Brennan says Tulsi Gabbard "doesn't have the right perspective" to be Director of National Intelligence.
So let's remind people:
-John Brennan voted for the Communist presidential candidate when in college.
-John Brennan lied under oath to the Senate about the CIA spying on Senate staffers.
-John Brennan lied to the public about Obama's drone war, claiming they never killed any civilians when he knew (and it was obvious) that this was false.
-John Brennan helped get the Russia collusion hoax off the ground, and lied that it was "well-founded" and based on real evidence.
-John Brennan lied that the Hunter Biden laptop was fake and was "Russian disinfo."
John Brennan is the exact sort of lifelong Washington D.C. parasite who must be stamped out. He's a dishonest, authoritarian pig who thinks he has the right to lie to the American people at will and either ignore or rig the results of our elections. He belongs in a prison cell.

"I wonder why they don't go for a barge chopstick arrangement? More room for error."
Less room for error, really, as the barge is moving.
Moreover, the tower would make the barge tender (you may call it top heavy) and would need an enormous amount of ballast due to the weight/moment arm of chopsticks and their catch.

I am really so confused.
A. They think they are women and want to pee with them.
B. They want to pee with women for kink.
So if you do the liberal if it saves one life.
So if you do the conservative that let the local police.
It both ends up that trans women can not be allowed it about 99% of spaces.

I will name names. Lucy Sun is the DOJ prosecutor who wanted mother of 8 and grandmother of 7 Rachel Powell (@Iamrachelpowell) 8 years behind bars after 3 years on house arrest. Yes, Rachel broke a window, a misdemeanor, after being shot at with rubber bullets and stun grenades, beaten by the police, tear gassed, and pepper sprayed while protesting the 2020 election fraud. She watched Roseann Boylan killed in front of her. Roseann's corpse was repeatedly beaten by a DC cop. Judge Royce Lamberth, in his 80s, who fell asleep at the bench during her trial, erroneously found Rachel guilty of the 1512 charge, saying that Rachel had to be sent to prison in order to protect the country. Rachel had no prior criminal record, is an exemplary mother, and is still languishing in a federal penitentiary in West Virginia, where six male prisoners pretending to be women are also housed. I have visited her several times. The Hazelton penitentiary is a dysfunctional disgrace. She has been waiting for a resentencing hearing since the June 2024 Supreme Court ruling threw out the 1512 charge. It is now November 18th and nothing has been scheduled. Justice better be coming!

Jillian Michaels did an interesting four minute video on RFK and vaccines. She starts with the question, "How are vaccines tested for safety?" She looks on the FDA website and finds a vague handwavey statement that rigorous testing is done.
She then does a bit of a deeper dive into the Hep B vaccine, which is required for children in the US. Hep B is a controversial childhood vaccine because you get it by sharing needles and sex. Newborns are obviously not at high risk.
She then goes into the actual safety testing done on the two currently available Hep B vaccines. For one vaccine, 147 kids were given a course of treatment and monitored for five days after each dose. For the other, it was a four day safety review.
Everyone in the group got the vaccine. There is no long term study.
http://tiny.cc/vr7wzz
For a long time I've looked sideways at anti-vaxxers (the before Covid definition) and thought they were a bit loony. Especially the tendentious autism link they usually try to draw. But post Covid and all the lies I saw Fauci, the FDA, the CDC, and the entire medical establishment tell, I'm more receptive.

At the time we could throw a thick yellow pages type bound book and the shredder would turn it to dust, pretty much instantly.
Spiral bound, no problems, hard bound, ring bound.
It would eat anything.

194 The information Jillian shared here makes me think the lies weren't unique to Covid. Maybe vaccine companies are playing cowboy patterns and practices when developing other vaccines too.
Posted by: bonhomme at November 19, 2024 06:41 PM (Odg76)
The problem is the liability laws that cover vaccines. It does not go to a court, but to a 'board' who then decides if something went wrong...
Which of course, it never does.
This is the DDT crap all over again. The Scientists who looked at the actual tests, said DDT was OK, and were then over ruled by the Guy in charge... who then quit and went to word for a pesticide company...
Leading almost all other countries to not make DDT, which led to 30 - 60 Million deaths since the ban.

Operation Wetback
In 1955, thousands of disoriented people roamed the city’s streets as the sun bore down on them. They had just been dumped there by American immigration officials—snatched from their lives and jobs in the United States and thrown into a city where they didn’t know anyone.

When I was a young, wildly liberal parent, I held off on the vaccines for my babies, then made sure they were well spaced. My babes were fully vaccinated by the time they started school, but I waited, and I spread them out. It later turned out that the guy who linked them to autism was falsifying his data, but I still think it was the right decision.

You, Perplexity, are not very good at this answering

P.S. 0.9% times 625,978 is about fifty-six hundred

The idea that the DOD is hiding breaks my heart.
I was a 23 year old twice LCpl, having had a court-martial, but even though I got fucked, I got promoted merit again and again,and I sat, the ONLY Private servicemember (the proper term for e1-e3) in an inspection review for my "battalion" it's called a group CSSG-1, but it's a battalion, serving under 1st FSSG, during a fsamao (pardon the acronymn, it's been a long time) and as the ONLY non NCO, or SNCO present at the review, I corrected one of the inspectors.
How things work is inspectors ALWAYS find a way to find a "hit" an incomplete performance on part of one of the groups that are being reviewed, especially in the initial inspections, the goal is to keep the people being inspected on their toes so they can be as clean as clean can be. That's a useful tactic for TRAINING, but not for a real Audit, which is what a FSMAO is.

One of the inspectors, he was a Gunnery Sgt from another unit tossed out a casual hit even admitting that it was no big deal, but that "hit" landed on me, and I was at the table. I had been through enough bullshit made up out of nowhere (also I was responsible for a lot of the other no hit data that was being reviewed, but only my command and commander knew that.) with my court-martial while still being chronically meritorious promoted, I wasn't gonna sit there and be treated as a sacrifice so that the inspector can find a "hit" to prove he was doing his job.
I can't remember the exact marker he hit me on, I don't know if it was me, I DO know because of his shock at me defending the status of MY unit, we were clean, and MY work, I was fucking sublime

So LCpl (2nd time, and 2nd time Merit) Pinto, when faced with this insult, even though at the time 4 times promoted meritorious Pinto didn't want to take another hit just because because I already lost my career, I wasn't gonna surrender my reputation I said, "Uh, Gunnery Sgt, I understand how you are incorrect, but I need to include some information."
It wasn't me raising my hand, it wasn't me begging permission, it was me, the ONLY private enlisted officer at the table, taking over the table because I wasn't gonna be his bitch because he thought he could get away with it. If I "MIGHT" have been wrong, that could be a discussion, but he said I was wrong, I was NOT.
My Plt Commander, a VERY smart man, at first looked at me as though "What are you doing? You know how this works?" Which is, you take the hit and then you keep doing what you do anyway and then you get praise and the person who bashed you takes the praise. "If it wasn't for me getting on his shit he wouldn't have delivered." that sort of stuff.
FUCK THAT! I spent a month in the brigg because a cuck couldn't control his cock and fucked a barracks betty, and he thought it was me who put

How's that for MARINE CORPS MAN!? My wife cheated on me with this PUNK, but I'm better, lets all conspire to fuck his life.
Anyways, Getting CM'd for disrespect and spending time in the brigg gave me something. a complete lack of fucks.
So I interrupted when they tried to give me and mine a hit that was bullshit, and not just bullshit in a conceptual way, but outright wrong. I interrupted.
My plt comm, wasn't surprised, but he was curious as to what I would do, and I hit the fucker. I'm trying to remember all of it, but I said something like "I think you are using a MMS message from a few months ago that had an incorrect referece to the 4700, but the rule is in the 1410.34F, and the MMS suggestion should have been retracted, and it might have been, but I've been too busy preparing for this, can I borrow your manual Gunnery Sgt?"

I didn't have notes, I'm a nobody as far as the SNCO's were concerned, they thought I was a clerk, but I was more, and I said, "Both of them" meaning the 4700 logistics manual, and the MCO 1410.34F which is the uniform code, and I vocalized the entire thing, using his own references in front of the table.
That fucker had to back down and acknowledge "There might be a conflict there LCpl Pinto, thank you for pointing that out."
The look on the faces of everyone who knew me was hillarious, but I KNOW that the look on my face was pure murder. I hated everyone at the table who was operating on the idea that I was a Bird.
a month later I got a NAM in peacetime, when 1 in 17 Marines IN TOTAL get one, that includes all of the still wartime and combat marines having names, I was pure peace, and I was ranked with the MAJORITY of the NAM receivers being wartime vets, because I didn't put up with no shit,

When I had no sway, other than competence.
My point.
I never fled from what I was, who I was, what I did, what I didn't do, what I experienced, or lay blame on anyone, I stood tall, accepting it all, and arguing despite.
The idea that the people who used to be the image that I was expected to live up to acting in this way?
It's a DISGRACE! A FUCKING DISGRACE. I should have finished my degree, and said FUCK YOU! I'm gonna be Elon's Janitor instead of giving these piece of shit DOD hacks claim my accomplishments as theirs.
I would rather clean the shit off of Elons second assistant to the insulation inspection's toilet than serve under anyone who DARE treat service as something to be hidden.
I OWN my service, and I loved it with all my heart, the only things I love more are my wife and my child. I loved it more than my parents and my brother.
These fuckers are a DISGRACE.

Pride is Accomplishment, not pronouncement. The "respected" institutions are not, the have pissed it all away in a toilet, that elon's second assistant to insulation would never allow them to use.
Since I was AT LEAST 12, when my brother went to war, I wanted to serve my nation in uniform and I thought it was the highest sacrifice worthy of the only reward being pride in what only you know, and I was a Marine (if you hadn't heard) and I LOVED it, I sacrificed so much for it to make others proud not so much me, but still me, and I would have talked it up for 20 of the last 30 years since I enlisted.
In the last I would say 10 I changed my mind. I still take pride in my service, and my brothers and every heterosexual male in my family's service, and I love and admire those who stood despite the horror that has been reeked over all of the services, including My Beloved Corps (and yes we talk like that) I will NOT, even under Trump who loves us, I will NOT recommend service to ANYONE I care about. Even The Corps pissed away it's pride, and I was there as it started to fall fastest, and even all these years later it breaks my heart and makes me want to cry.

The idea that the hard men for hard times are shitting their pants at . . . .Doing what they are told, makes me Ashamed almost that I ever promoted service as much as I did.
You don't need them to tell you you are an American or a Patriot. Odds are, that over the last 40 years, maybe more, they are the WORST people to support your love of nation. Listen to your parents, your pastor, your friends, and protect your family and community as best you can, but I still, even under Trump, will never recommend service again, and I appologize to everyone who I ever did recommend it too, and I'm sorry I have these stories I'm so proud of, because _I_ am proud of them. Please do not go my path until America as a whole gets it's shit right. They didn't get it right while I was in, and it's FAR worse now.
Become a Janitor.

"(Anti-)Scientific American's woke incompetent Editor in Chief has resigned after attacking half of the country as fascists -- and having turned the once-respected journal into a gonzo leftwing agitprop site little different from Pink News."
I hate to tell ya, but that corner had been turned long before she showed up at SciAm.
