I Discovered a difference in Service Academy Nominations
Diversity is not unity. Equity not equality. Inclusion not acceptance. Only through meritocracy can success be assured for national security and conflict. RFO and HR218.
DEI = Didn't Earn It Two thirds of l;gbt in jail are there for sex crimes....
DEI = Dumb, Entitled, Ignorant LGBT or whatever = Alphabet People. They ruined so much. Even the innocence of the rainbow 😢
Only thing I would say is when you said "...when you think it couldn't get any worse..." may have been phrased differently saying "...coast guard improves since inauguration!" I enjoyed your take on this chain of events. Keep up the good work.
5 days later the coast guard are catching illegal aliens already
Out where the oars strike the water the USCG seaman have always been there when the going got tough. The environmental decay that swept in with WOK affects every service, The Army classifies it as Lo Density MOS's. Mcnamara attempted the same when enlistment quotas were failing. His answer was to swell the ranks by conscripting CAT 4 individuals- aka McNamara's Morons. It did not improve Unit readiness or combat efficacies, but it sure swelled the mortuaries.
Cosst Guard should not have a four star general. Too small.
That'a a dude
What area/s did she improve upon? What area/s remained fouled?
Don't believe al the sexual assault allegations... Investigate all of them aggressively.... Believe those results.
The United States is suffering to from DEI incompetence. Clown time is over
Thank you for this! I totally agree with you regarding this decision. And it's high time we began to value merit again in this country. Merit is truly the ultimate equal opportunity employer. Cheers!
She’ll run to MSNBC or CNN and become a “special military contributor/analyst” and blast the Trump administration. Granted she inherited the s***show from Schulz who buried the “internal investigation report” on Fouled Anchor and tried to hide it from congress until exposed by the media. However, she should not be cut any slack. She accepted the appointment under Biden, pushed the DEI agenda hard and then left disgraced . At that level in the CG they are political appointees who just happen to wear a uniform. If 30 years for enlisted is a career then 30 years and not a day longer should be for the Commandant. 30 years maximum. Something tells me this isn’t the last time we’ll hear about wrongdoings in the Coast Guard…just a feeling😮 This is called Drain the Swamp…FAFO…good riddance Fagan…
She will kick your A-s
There is no support for leaders who don't kneel before the king. The only thing she was actually guilty of was supporting DEI initiatives. The rest was only perpetual. Some of those things did happen on her watch.
DEI destroys rediness, moral, fitness, and effectiveness. That alone is grounds for dismissal. The fact that she inherited other issues and failed to correct them is equally a failure of leadership.
Supporting DEI BS is enough. Woke liberal democrat policies are destroying our country.
Great move. Get the academy back to standards
Mission cancelled- GOOD!
I had absolutely no idea that the US COAST Guard had such an immense global footprint. I think that's absolutely absurd on its face.
She can now apply to join the New Zealand navy!
Yeah, that story was a head shaker.
Got my appointment to USAFA a few days ago a week after I received my LOA. Thank you for all these videos as they made a real difference in helping my application.
Congratulations! I wish you well, and thank you for stepping up and serving our country. Be safe.
With luck perhaps the Coast Guard will stop patrolling the Taiwan Strait. Last time I checked, American's coasts were not anywhere near there.
the people she brought with her are still inplace
College essays should be abandoned completely. What is the point of a judging a personal essay when the reader has absolutely no idea how much of it was actually written by the person in question? It was bad before AI, now "cheating" will be so widespread with people like this condoning it, the whole exercise is unfair and pointless.
Senior leadership should be men only.
I do not agree with your statement. There are good women in the military. Most of the time they do not make these ranks because they do not suck up and tote a narrative.
@ with no apologies I will admit I am an old Coast Guard veteran serving when all the women were known as SPARS. Putting women on ships was a huge mistake for many reasons.
It honestly brings me to shame that the military should be politicized in this way. Maybe she really did let those sexual assault cases fall through and if she did then she had it coming, but if thats a fabrication for political gain as I would expect from Fox News then it was not just whatsoever and was merely justification for removing women from leadership positions. I know plenty of women in the military who are both physically capable and also serve as excellent leaders. To say that women should not serve in combat roles or leadership positions because they are "emotionally unstable" just shows ones true misogynistic views. Its not about military effectiveness it's about the patriarchy, and these fools in congress feel threatened that a woman could be on the same level as them.
Take your midol and chill out.
As noted in the prologue, this was reported by Fox AND OTHER OUTLETS. It's in the public record. Hegseth has repeatedly said that women should have the SAME standards when it comes to abilities and skills. Incompetence and inability are not traits to be ignored because they're women. Women in foxholes with men, fighting hand-to-hand, and being targets for males for unwanted attention from both sides is an invitation to reduced combat effectiveness of that unit and an unnecessary danger to the women. The military is not shamed by the reporting of the poor leadership of one misguided DEI appointee. Rather, this reporting affirms that commonsense is once again being used in creating an effective fighting force.
Women are not the same as men. Men are not the same as women.
OBVIOUSLY when they are constantly exposed for incompetence,the first words out of their mouths is DISCRIMINATION,Not I was unqualified for the position!
@@roses2155 I am currently serving and there’s plenty of women that are completely capable of doing their duty on the same and even higher level than some men. To say blankly say that women are incompetent in general is just plain sexist, you’re not even trying to hide it.
a woman should NEVER be in charge of any military school NEVER.
Why is that? Please do explain.
I've met several parents that wrote the essay for their midshipman.
So have I. It is really a disservice to the candidate since they should stand on their own merits.
-Unfortunately, we will never hear her side of the story. There could be certainly justified grounds for her dismissal, or there could be just trumped-up charges designed to remove women from key leadership positions. Given Trump's sordid and hostile relationships with women in the recent past, one has to be at least a little suspicious. Absolutely no doubt that she will be replaced with either a qualified or unqualified male in any case.
ya ya ya ... she will write a book ... we will hear about ... adnasum ... in the meantime the CG is in a better place
Like GENUINELY hostile to women? So, his Chief of Staff is working in a hostile environment?
Yes, Trump abslutely targeted a women who he had no idea about to fire her because he hates women with no information or facts to do it. Do you hear how dumb that sounds?
Excellent news!
Excellent!
Also do you have an in depth video on strategies to secure a nomination? If you do please let me know and maybe paste a link I can’t seem to find one
Please go to my channel there are about 100 videos that lead you through the process. If you have a specific question please send me and email or leave a comment.
Will do
I agree with all of your takes on Ai honestly (at least in my experience) in my district when people want to go to service academies the staff is absolutely thrilled, I feel so much support and I am thankful for it. That being said many applicants should look at possibly asking their English teacher or counselors for help as it has many of the benifits of Ai with almost no draw backs.
Excellent idea! I wish that I included the "English teacher" in the video. I've heard that some teachers use the "Common App" as a writing assignment. Thank you for the comment and watching my videos.
Coast Guard is joke under Woke Woman. "I don't need to know how many helicopters or cutters we have today, I need to know the number of drag queens and alphabet people we have. Need to keep the number's up."
Long time coming.
Can you make an episode on tips and tricks for writing essays. I feel like it’s the hardest part because it is the only part of your application you can answer incorrectly. Without a doubt, writing essays was my worst part of the application. I submitted my USAFA application two minutes before the deadline because I’m not able to write essays.
I would be done with my USNA application by now if it were not for the essays
Thanks for the idea, I'll take a shot at it. Thanks for watching.
An 18 year old writing an essay may not produce the most polished English but if it comes from the heart the selection committee will know. It's always a plus to put your integrity on display,
I really like how you incorporated the honesty and integrity mantras as it pertains to writing these essays.
Thank you, and thanks for watching my videos
A great loss to my Service. Another STUPID move by djt.
Seems that your opinion is in the minority. Majority finally rules.
@jessegarman7899 U mean the draft dodger rules you. I'm good with that. 😂
@ Not at all. I just don't like women in positions of authority. I have worked for and around too many in my career and even the best were mediocre. They manage like they drive with their feelings , not facts.
@jessegarman7899 misogyny is trumptardism at it's finest. You showed your colors.
@@MchaelHowell Good-- because you have no choice. Go off and start filling out hundreds of fraudulent LEFTIST ballots for the next election...then you can get caught and get thrown in prison.
Well overdue action. I had some very good female officers in the Army reserve we had some very poor commissioned, warrant Officers and a Few very bad NCOs. One Warrant officer was caught selling our meat ration for annual training. the Division commander was present when we were served soup which was supposed to be Sloppy Joes. The Warrant officer was arrested the following day. One of my first sergeants was thrown out after he failed his 3rd drug test.
Time to cut out all of the woke rot in government. These woke leaders care little or nothing for the job they are responsible for doing. Their only true interest is in advancing their ideology. Look at LA burn because of inept leadership at the highest levels. If those woke leaders had done their actual jobs the fires would have been far less of an issue or none at all.
Balanced reporting. The fact that there was no hue and cry from Capitol Hill over her dismissal speaks volumes.
Thank you for watching
There was. Multiple Congress people spoke up and felt it want called for, while also acknowledging the need for change and transparency.
@ It was a pretty token response by any historical standard.
Women being there in the first place is obviously causing problems.
No tolerance for ineffective leadership? You mean 90% of the officer corps of the US Military?
MAGA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Balanced, thoughtful report. Thanks!
Thank you for watching.
This type of leadership is like a plague, if left unchecked it would’ve spread. I truly hope nothing like this is going on at any of the other academy’s. Though I may not agree on many of trumps other agendas I really do appreciate how swiftly he dealt with this. Thanks again for another informative video
She wasn't in charge of the Coast Guard Academy. She was in charge of the Coast Guard.
@@MMMMM-v5m yes. She isn't directly responsible for the academy but she was involved with the cover up in the coast guard academy.
I just received an LOA from USAFA and was wondering if this means that I will be accepted once my medicals clear, which I believe they will. Can I assume this is an acceptance if so?
Did you get a nomination? Does the letter say that your in pending a medical and a nomination? If so, that's a pretty good sign....... If your want confirmation call USAFA admissions.
@@theserviceacademyinfochann1591 Yes and yes. I plan on calling them but I want to get an idea about what exactly it means. Genuine thanks for your videos, they've really helped me this past year.
Let us know (CONGRATULATIONS!)
Trump pledged to eliminate the politically inspired DEI and base decisions on merit. This is a step back from the woke practices of the Biden administration.
Segregation was racist,
@@robertsessoms It certainly was.
When I was in HS and found out my art teacher was a Vietnam vet. I told him I wanted to enlist. He asked why I would do something silly like that. I told him I wanted to serve my country (I am Chinese with a heavy accent). He shakes my hand and I don't know if that changed him or he gave me a strange vibe. I got this feeling he was against serving.
Another possible problem: my son had a teacher for both 10th and 11th grade with whom he had a great relationship. My son spoke to him at the end of 11th grade about getting a recommendation. All seemed great. My son got back to school in September and the teacher was gone. It took a while to track the teacher down at a new school. He was still willing to write a recommendation, but the process was much more complicated than the teachers at his school. All the more reason to line up multiple recs.
Yes, that's a real problem. It's also a great example of why lining up multiple recommendations is so important.
