The spectacle of retired General Officers (GOs) and Admirals (Flag Officers – FOs) criticizing (far more often than not in one direction) political developments is becoming a regular staple of American discourse. The traditional line of separation between Service and politics while in uniform is fraying drastically.
Marine Corps Gen. Anthony Zinni from the 1990s was perhaps one of the prototypical soft “political” GO/FOs. He seemed omni-present during the Clinton years and after retiring, became involved in a number of official/semi-official appointments, even for President George W. Bush, but there did always seem to be a party leaning on Zinni’s part.
This repeatable process of rolling out GO/FOs was refined by the Democrats during the mid-term election for President George W. Bush in 2004. In some ways it was characterized as the “Angry Generals” who were always angry. They were angry about President Bush, they were angry about Iraq, they said they were angry about being lied to (although many had fully been involved in the intelligence and planning for the Iraq Invasion), and so on…

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
