New Year’s Day attacks by US service members highlight threat, says Bishop Garrison who led DoD investigation

Summary

Bishop Garrison, a former Pentagon official who led a 2021 investigation into military extremism, warns that recent New Year’s Day attacks by military personnel highlight the ongoing threat of radicalization and distress in the armed forces.

Despite a report recommending counter-extremism measures, its policies were never implemented, facing backlash from right-wing figures, including Trump’s defense secretary nominee, Pete Hegseth.

As Hegseth aims to dismantle counter-extremism programs, Garrison stresses the risks of neglecting the issue, citing cultural and mental health challenges within the military.

    Nothing in that movie is about the inherent intelligence of the parents.

    Did you miss the entire opening scene?

    It’s about the people that are having kids are less likely to make other decisions in their best interests like funding education or breaking up monopolies.

    You must have watched a different movie with a much more nuanced message than I did…

    I’m not saying it’s not a funny fucking movie.
