HERITAGE FOUNDATION 06/01/2021 BIDEN FEMINIZING OUR MILITARY!

 Submitted by: 1stCav

Jun 01, 2021 Greetings from Washington, D.C., where we are confronting the dangerous advance of critical race theory in the military. (Actually it's more about the Biden Administration's plans to make the military a Socialist military, why are members of the military's career's and/or being able to stay in the military if members of the military speak out against Marxism/Socialism.  Also, if they speak out against having transgenders in the military, the military paying for  sex changes, at a cost $100,000 to $200,000 per operation, plus medication after wards. The government is attempting to ban religion, freedom of speech, morals, being loyal to our Constitutional Republic, all things that our military has supported and stood for for ober 200+ years).   See below. The Woke Takeover of Our Military Endangers Us All Lt. Col. Matthew Lohmeier was commander of a U.S. Space Force unit until he spoke up against critical race theory and its rapid incursion into America’s armed forces. That got him fired. Lohmeier is just one casualty in the left’s woke offensive against the military, and he won’t be the last. “The American people and our elected representatives should not only be aware of what is going on within the Department of Defense, but speak out as boldly and courageously as has Lohmeier,” write Heritage senior fellows Dakota Wood and Mike Gonzalez. Read the full commentary to learn more about the risk critical race theory poses to our military. Five Ways to Understand Biden’s $6.4 Trillion Tax-and-Spend Plan President Joe Biden released three enormous spending plans within three months in office, which together total a mind-boggling $6.4 trillion. That sum is hard to fully comprehend, so Heritage policy analyst David Ditch breaks it all down to make its vast scale more understandable. For example, that’s more money than was spent on World War II and Obamacare—combined. Read the full commentary to understand what the plans entail and why we should oppose them. No One Knows Election Fraud’s Full Extent. That’s Why We Track It. The left continues to insist that election fraud is a myth dreamed up by conservatives to justify new “voter suppression” laws. But fraud exists. The only thing we don’t know is how extensive it is. That’s why Heritage has been tracking election fraud for years, notes John Malcolm, vice president of the Institute for Constitutional Government. In fact, the Election Fraud Database now contains more than 1,300 proven cases of election fraud. “The integrity of our elections and the current vulnerabilities in the system are too important to ignore,” he writes. Read Malcolm's commentary to learn more about Heritage’s database, and the lies the left is telling about it. HAPPENING AT HERITAGE Heritage President Kay C. James mourned the loss of Foster Friess, a successful businessman and philanthropist. Heritage honored Friess with the John Von Kannon Patriot Award at the Annual Leadership Conference last month. Read more about Friess’ amazing life. Elan Carr will join Heritage as a visiting fellow to help combat the increasing threats of antisemitism. Carr served as the senior diplomatic representative of the United States and the senior adviser to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo regarding antisemitism. Read more about this exciting addition. Heritage's Tom Spoehr testified before the Senate Budget Committee.
