She told me she would take me to #WestPoint every grading period I didn't get #Unsatisfactory for behavior. You couldn't keep me still. I don't remember being disruptive but I always got the "U". LOL Somehow I took her up on her offer and they took me three or five times. Not sure! 🩷🩷🩷

Fortunately for all of us, those at West Point are people of quality - intelligent, dedicated.
They're able to recognize assholery when they see it.

Federal judge blocks Trump administration restrictions on academic speech at West Point
A federal court in New York has issued a ruling blocking enforcement of a Trump administration policy that restricted speech and academic content at the United States Military Academy at West Point. The policy stemmed from an executive order signed by President Donald Trump that prohibited the academy from promoting or advancing certain ideas described as “un-American, divisive, discriminatory, radical, extremist, and irrational theories.” Among the prohibited concepts was the view that America’s founding documents may be racist or sexist, a restriction that critics argued amounted to government interference in academic freedom. The lawsuit challenging the order was filed by Tim Bakken, a civilian professor at West Point. He argued that the directive violated First Amendment protections by limiting what faculty could teach and discuss in an academic setting. U.S. District Judge Cathy Seibel, appointed by former President George W. Bush, agreed with this argument and issued a preliminary injunction preventing the Department of the Army from enforcing the policy while litigation continues. In her ruling, Judge Seibel emphasized the importance of open intellectual inquiry within military education. She notably wrote that cadets at West Point are “not snowflakes who will somehow be harmed by learning about controversial issues,” underscoring her view that exposure to challenging or sensitive topics does not undermine military readiness or discipline. The decision is part of a broader wave of legal challenges involving Trump-era military and defense policies, including separate litigation over Pentagon press access rules that have drawn criticism from multiple news organizations. The ruling represents a significant legal setback for efforts to impose ideological limits on academic instruction at the service academy and reinforces judicial protections for free speech within government-run educational institutions.

JazonePirate #PeteHegseth gave this stark warning at #Westpoint today as the U.S. continues to navigate the #Iranwar including recent conflicts with Iranian proxies.

"We are sending you, perhaps, to war, and you are ready." "You can't throw your pronouns at the enemy."
"In this War Department, we raise up warriors."
"Diversity is not our strength. Unity is our strength."
He reminded newly commissioned lieutenants that they are purpose-built for close combat, not fancy parades.

Tavallaan on lohdullista, että informaatioähky ja ramppikuume voi yllättää sotiessakin, mutta ehkä tuosta voisi oppia jotain yleisempää ihmisen ja koneiden pakko-naittamisesta tehokkuuden nimissä?

Cognitive Fratricide: How the Transparent Battlefield Creates Decision Paralysis
The US military is building a battlefield where nothing is hidden. Through billions of dollars invested in networked sensors, artificial intelligence, and joint all-domain command and control, the assumption is clear: If we can connect every sensor to every shooter, we will achieve decision dominance. More information will produce faster, better decisions. Friction will decrease.
