Yikes: Air Force Base Warns Service Members Against Participating With Conservative Group
Nick Arama
There have been a lot of questions about how woke the military has become over the past few years, particularly during the Biden administration. We reported on a poll in August that found confidence in the military — usually something that Americans rank pretty high — is at the lowest in two decades. That's likely in part due to the woke push within the service, leaving the impression that it's not focusing as much as it should on its main mission.
But the text sent out by Minot Air Force Base leadership in North Dakota to their service personnel is raising a lot of concerns about what's going on.
The text warned against being near an event on Nov. 17 called the "Dakota Patriot Rally" that featured a pro-Trump speaker from the Turning Point Action group, which the text described as "alt-right." It also said that service members should "be cautious" because the event could be "confrontational" to military members. Perhaps worst of all, it warned that "participation with such groups as Turning Point Action could jeopardize their continued service in the US military." The text finishes by saying that there was a "shooting incident yesterday in Minot, unclear if it was related."
Yikes — how problematic is that?
