🚨 I've actually been telling people the same thing for months. People already in the military, and young people thinking of joining.

"I am writing this piece today for the simple reason that we are, right now, living under an extremely unstable, vindictive, and dictatorial Commander-in-Chief of the US military who is likely to order the military to do things that will be judged by history to be unconstitutional and immoral. And even if you are a soldier who has supported America’s wars of the past few decades, there is now a distinct possibility, verging on a likelihood, that within the next few years, the US military will be used as a tool to directly oppress Americans at home. For anyone who is of an age to be a member of the US military today, there has never been a higher risk that you will be placed in a situation in which you will be ordered to do things that will make you a villain.

Not a villain by my standards. Not a villain by the standards of leftists or anti-imperialists who you, as a member of the military, might profoundly disagree with. A villain by your own standards—by the standards of someone who joined the military as a genuine act of patriotism and public service. Many members of today’s military are motivated by a belief in the necessity of protecting Americans from the world’s threats. Today, the greatest threat to America’s future as a free and democratic society is the Commander-in-Chief of the US military. The threat is inside the house. It is time to get out."

Final chance to buy

This We’ll Defend was one of the first books I wrote. It’s getting increasingly out of date, though, so I’ve decided to take it off sale.

Until the end of the month, print and ebook copies are available at a steep discount here on my website. After that, it will only be available second hand.

"Staff Sgt. Thomas Mitchell on Friday uploaded the video to TikTok, showing a group of trainees performing push-ups and burpees in full body armor under a banner that read, "This Is Ultra MAGA Country." The video was later deleted. But shortly after, Mitchell posted a second video showing the same exercising in the same location, this time with the flag removed. The caption: "Cry about it." #military #DOD #USArmy military.com/daily-news/2025/0
