This is a recruiting video:
This is another.
Here's another classic:
This entire movie may have been the greatest military recruitment film of all time:
Going old school, here’s Jimmy Stewart (!!) recruiting people to the Air Force:
And for those who disingenuously claim the point is about gender, here’s another powerful recruiting ad:
This is NOT a military recruiting video.

1/x Is there a more pitiful example of corrupt corporate media than Brian Williams?

He was fired as the anchor of NBC Nightly News for "misrepresenting events which occurred while he was covering the Iraq War in 2003.” Now, he’s a left-wing hack at MSNBC. msnbc.com/11th-hour/watc…
2/x Now, he’s throwing a hissy fit that I criticized the ridiculously woke video that the Biden admin put out. Williams accidentally told the truth, when he describes it as “a video meant to diminish the U.S. military.”

TRUE. That’s the problem. (The Pentagon put it out.)
3/x Now, with his trademark ignorant snark, he’s dubbed me “Kremlin Cruz.”

Three problems:

(1) I hate communists, my family was imprisoned & tortured by communists, and Brian is a shameless apologist for Russian (and Chinese and Cuban) communists.

Democrats are pushing to upend the country by packing #SCOTUS to cement their radical agenda.

At stake: free speech, religious liberty, the Bill of Rights, & an independent judiciary. 

It’s not just Republicans who oppose packing the Court, only 43% of Dem voters support it.
2/x
Despite widespread opposition, Democrats in DC are moving full steam ahead with their terrible idea.

Instead of politicizing the Supreme Court to ram through their extreme agenda, Democrats should listen to Joe Biden's own previous warnings about packing the court.
3/x
In 1983, Joe Biden called FDR's move to pack the Supreme Court a “bonehead idea. It was a terrible, terrible mistake to make & it put in question there for an entire decade the independence of [#SCOTUS].”

Biden, listen to 1983 Biden.

Impressive candor for Senate Dems to hold a hearing on the history of Jim Crow laws.

- Bull Connor
- Nathan Bedford Forrest (founder of KKK)
- George Wallace
- Robert Byrd

ALL Democrats.

Dems wrote Jim Crow. Sadly, they’ve got a lot of expertise in bigotry & discrimination.
2/x Lots of Dems triggered by this post.

Most common, angry response, in effect: “the world changed in 1964, and now Dems are righteous on race.”

This is nonsense, on many levels.

(1) GOP, the party of Lincoln, was founded to END slavery. Dems ferociously defended slavery.
3/x (2) In 1964, 82% of GOP voted for Civil Rights Act. Only 69% of Dems did & Dems filibustered to try to kill it.

(3) It’s not just ancient Dem history (which Lefties angrily insist). The CURRENT Dem governor of VA displayed a Klansman in his yearbook.

The White House hand-picked a TV crew to accompany their trip to the Carrizo Springs, NOT the Donna facility.  

That’s not transparency.

True transparency would be to open the Donna facility to press that’s at 1,556% capacity when 18 Senators go there Friday.
Reports about the CBP's Donna facility indicate minors are hungry, have only showered once in 7 days, were forced to sleep on the floor, and haven't seen sunlight in days.

Of course the Biden admin isn't allowing cameras in that facility.
The Biden admin is instead taking a camera to HHS's Carrizo Springs facility which The Washington Post reports has a soccer field, basketball court, and "a legal services trailer has the Spanish word 'Bienvenidos,' or welcome, on a banner on its roof."

1/x There is crisis on the southern border of Joe Biden’s creation.

Throughout his campaign, Biden promised illegal aliens benefits, amnesty, and lax enforcement of immigration law.

I’ve got the receipts.
2/x In December 2019, Biden promised health care for illegal aliens.
3/x In January 2020, Biden promised to end illegal alien detention across the board.

Yet another example of biased, dishonest “fact-checking.”

Newsweek admits “Individuals who overstay their visas but pay tax in the United States using a Social Security number may be eligible for stimulus payments.”
They also admit 676k visa overstays in a single year.

They ignore that those accumulate over decades, and 60% of the 12m total illegal aliens are visa overstays.
So, they conclude EVERY WORD THAT I SAID IS TRUE (and Dick Durbin’s claims to the contrary are false), but they’re left-wing propagandists, so they still call it “mostly false”!
