Army recruiting skyrockets as Trump ends woke marketing; youth want to serve under bold, strong leadership

Via Wash­ing­ton Free Bea­con:

Pres­i­dent Don­ald Trump promised to strength­en Amer­i­ca’s mil­i­tary by ensur­ing that ser­vice mem­bers will no longer be “sub­ject­ed to rad­i­cal polit­i­cal the­o­ries and social exper­i­ments while on duty,” and that’s exact­ly what he’s done. Last month, Trump signed an exec­u­tive order abol­ish­ing the diver­si­ty, equi­ty, and inclu­sion pro­grams, imple­ment­ed under for­mer pres­i­dent Joe Biden, and anoth­er ban­ning trans­gen­der per­son­nel from serv­ing in the mil­i­tary. On Mon­day, he dis­missed the advi­so­ry boards at all four U.S. mil­i­tary acad­e­mies in an effort to sti­fle the influ­ence of “Woke Left­ist Ide­o­logues.”

The new ads are a breath of fresh air:

Unsur­pris­ing­ly, the Army has almost instant­ly gone from plum­met­ing recruit­ment to record-break­ing highs, with Decem­ber 2024 being the most pro­duc­tive Decem­ber in 15 years.

“BOTTOM LINE: America’s youth want to serve under the bold & strong “Amer­i­ca First” lead­er­ship of [Pres­i­dent Don­ald Trump] @realDonaldTrump,” Defense Sec­re­tary Pete Hegseth post­ed on X.
