This is probably among the scariest things happening right now:
The Wall Street Journal: “The Trump transition team is considering a draft executive order that establishes a “warrior board” of retired senior military personnel with the power to review three- and four-star officers and to recommend removals of any deemed unfit for leadership.
If Donald Trump approves the order, it could fast-track the removal of generals and admirals found to be “lacking in requisite leadership qualities,” according to a draft of the order reviewed by The Wall Street Journal. But it could also create a chilling effect on top military officers, given the president-elect’s past vow to fire “woke generals,” referring to officers seen as promoting diversity in the ranks at the expense of military readiness.”

🚨Via Kyle Griffin:
The #Trump transition team is considering a draft executive order that would create a board to purge three- and four-star generals 'deemed unfit for leadership.'
Such a panel could upend the traditional military review process and raises concerns about politicization of the military. https://www.wsj.com/politics/national-security/trump-draft-executive-order-would-create-board-to-purge-generals-7ebaa606
Tell me I’m wrong. This is going to render the military ineffective and incompetent, leaving only the idiots in charge. (I’m not wrong)
