The Left Have Stuck Their Claws Into The Military — But House GOP Is Fighting Back

Daily Caller, Defense /

House Republicans are fighting to keep the military about breaking things and killing people, what they call a “focus on lethality.” Most of their efforts will likely get stripped out by the Democrats when the bill goes before the Senate. But with the upper chamber looking increasingly red in November’s election and Donald Trump leading in the polls, this year’s House bill may well be a harbinger of what to expect next spring.

Joe Biden’s Gaza Pier Washed Away — Along With $320 Million In Taxpayer Dollars

Daily Caller, Defense /

That a temporary pier built in the open ocean broke up in a storm should not shock anyone who has ever looked at the sea or watched the Weather Channel.

Leave a Comment / Daily Caller, Defense /

The past seven years haven’t made the job of being a ship commander in the Western Pacific any easier. Seventh Fleet’s area of responsibility sprawls over 36 maritime countries encompassing 50 percent of the world’s population. It faces the densest shipping environment on earth and routinely confronts China, North Korea, and Russia. Ships like the McCain keep sea lanes open and often sail, alone, under the full knowledge that thousands of Chinese anti-ship missiles like the YJ-12, YJ-18, YJ-83, DF-21, and DF-26 are trained on its every move.

Leave a Comment / Daily Caller, Defense /

The blind religion of today’s modern American progressive deems strength immoral and whiteness a sin. Likewise industry and wealth are the products of a corrupt patriarchy, and therefore unjust.
