Biden's Military Can't Tell Difference Between Sexes - Or Between Itself and Russia, July 4th Tweet Proves
On July 4th, the U.S. Pacific Fleet demonstrated it can’t tell the difference between itself and Russia, which is fitting for a military that can no longer tell the difference between a man and a woman.
On Tuesday, the Pacific Fleet tweeted a photo of a serviceman saluting a warship and airplane in silhouettes. “Happy 4th of July,” the graphic read.
“Happy Independence Day!” the caption read, followed by an American flag emoji and a few hashtags:
Deleted, but The List comes for all, @USPacificFleet.

Slight issue: Those are not planes made by American companies or flown by the Navy. Nor is that a U.S. warship.
They’re all Russian.
As U.K. military-centric outlet Forces Network noted, the ship is a Kashin-class Russian destroyer and the silhouetted planes are Russian-made Su-27 Flanker fighter jets.

The Pacific Fleet didn’t directly apologize on Twitter, but it did delete the tweet itself — and a more suitably American graphic was used in a subsequent tweet:
Happy Independence Day! Celebrating life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness for 247 years, and those who stand to protect. 🇺🇸#IndependenceDay #4thofJuly #USNavy pic.twitter.com/9hTMqmKJCc

But then again, what’s the big deal? For July 4, the Pacific Fleet “identified” as Russian. The Navy already has a “drag ambassador,” after all — Joshua Kelley, who also identifies as the female-presenting performer “Harpy Daniels.”
Why hiring a drag queen ‘Harpy Daniels’ who is an active duty sailor to participate in a pilot program aimed at targeting a wider array of potential recruits through digital platforms wasn’t helpful with military recruitment?

The Department of Defense also used the Independence Day weekend to highlight the story of Army Maj. Rachel Jones, a male who identifies as female; the DOD’s Twitter account highlights a story about him that said “living authentically” saved his life:
.@USArmy Maj. Rachel Jones found solace after coming out as a transgender female. Her journey from battling depression & suicidal thoughts to embracing authenticity inspires us all. #WhyWeServe https://t.co/9llx7skuC3

This Independence Day weekend, the Department of Defense honored “she/her” Major “Rachel” Jones https://t.co/csLl6RHPGm

We even have the first four-star commissioned officer in the military thanks to President Joe Biden’s administration: Dr. Rachel Levine, an admiral in the United States Public Health Service Commissioned Corps.
So, sure, we may be involved in what amounts to a proxy war with Russia in Ukraine. Su-27s and Kashin-class Russian destroyers aren’t going to be a welcome sight to NATO-backed forces anywhere near the Crimean Peninsula.
But what’s wrong as identifying with your diametrical opposite? The military has embraced the concept after all, with gender. A clueless graphic artist was just taking the whole thing one step further.
