That's easy, false information is whatever they don't believe or want folks to know.

They say truth control, I say mind control.

I do not personally believe that the basses names should be renamed just because some folks feels are hurting. But since it will happen, I would rename Ft. Bragg or Benning after COL Robert Howard in a heart beat.

Cancel cultural, revisionist history, has nothing to do with equality, and everything to do with an understanding the age of exploration, which subjected the vast world civilization to european domination.
The sentiment that propelled the age of exploration and validated it's expanse was rooted in the religious understanding that God created man in his likeness and image. was hierarchal, therefore any encounter with a native population was idiocratic.

That historical moment is being turned inward to control a new future outcome, that benefits those who have survived the turbulence pf free choice. In the coming moment, be ready to not only justify political acuity, but to articulate a non threading acceptance of dominance. Hence, the resistance is born.

This requires a few edits, but It's now pass the point of NR

The Army secretary is open to changing the names of 10 Army bases that were named for Confederate leaders, Military.com has confirmed.

Secretary Ryan McCarthy will consider the changes if he has bipartisan cooperation from leaders at the local and congressional level an Army official told Military.com. Politico first reported the news about renaming the bases Monday.

I think Fort Slight-Exaggeration is less damaging to those of fragile sensibilities.

Preaching to the choir for the most part but I’m old enough the names of the bases I was stationed at will never change Fort Bragg, Fort Benning , Fort Leonard Wood, Camp Mackall, Camp Carson

Granted some have nick names like Ft Lost in the Woods but those were affectionately given by soldiers.

It was a privilege to me to be on those bases knowing the incredible history, especially Camp Mackall. So many times I looked around and visualized those great men who trained on those trails and drop zones, history came alive.

Fort Howard would be outstanding but I’m not sure men like that would support replacing the names of those legendary posts, it was part of their history as well. I suppose those MOH recipients were about doing, mission and their fellow soldiers VS Pontification, as these woke creatures are so intent on.

Is that a reference to the fact that he didn't start any new wars?

Pelosi says she ordered it.

If your implication was that he was a draft dodger, he and I were in the same Draft Lottery. Almost no deferments were allowed (clergy is one that I remember that was). His number was in the 350s and mine was 316. But, I had enlisted two years earlier. No one above about 150 or so was drafted.

She had to order it.
The Capital was invaded by a hostile force for the first time in over 200 years.

And since she was probably there the first time, she is justified

Doesn't that counter your implication that POTUS ordered it? Regardless, she is not in their CoC and cannot 'order' them to DC. BTW, she's addressing them while they are still at attention.
