While Democrats and some Republicans celebrated the “historic” inclusion of women in the US military draft, Congressman Chip Roy (R-Texas) went on a rant against both parties for this – and other policies over the years.
The Selective Service system currently requires men aged 18-25 to register for the draft. An amendment that would extend this to women as well was adopted in a 35-24 vote by the House Armed Services Committee on Thursday, as part of the 2022 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), the bill funding the military.
The Committee has 31 Democrats and 28 Republicans, meaning four members of the opposition crossed the aisle and backed the “historic” amendment to the NDAA. The Senate already approved the proposal in July, also with some GOP members joining the Democrats.
Roy, a former Senate staffer who was first elected to the House in 2019, fired off a nine-tweet tirade telling both parties to “go straight to hell.”
“I do not trust you to do anything at all, much less say you will draft my daughter to ‘non combat’ roles,” he tweeted, before offering some examples.
Among his list of reprobates were people who amassed $30 trillion in national debt while giving lip service to balanced budgets, did nothing to secure the border except talk “in the false name of compassion,” politicized the coronavirus pandemic and the vaccines and treatments for it, and “destroyed our healthcare system” in the “false name of coverage.”
Roy also lashed out at people who had the US at war for 20 years only for “a gutless President to surrender and empower our enemies,” referring to the recent exit from Afghanistan. He also called out those who empowered “education bureaucrats” to teach children that America is evil and racist, and destroyed US energy independence “to appease institutional investors and the Acela corridor cocktail circuit.”
“Now you… want to draft my daughter and just ‘trust you’ not to put them into combat? All of DC – all of it – can go straight to hell,” he concluded.
Roy’s tirade came as the NDAA cleared the committee in a 57-2 vote, in a late-night session that stretched into Thursday morning. The House markup gives the Pentagon $23.9 billion more in funding than the White House budget request, even after President Joe Biden ended the war in Afghanistan – and the commitment to fund the Afghan government and military forces, which had surrendered to the Taliban in mid-August.
Both the amendment and Roy’s frustrated tweets went largely unnoticed by the major media outlets, which were focused on Thursday on the abortion restrictions that went into effect in Texas.
While the US abolished the military draft after the Vietnam War, the Selective Service registration requirement was only briefly lifted by President Gerald Ford in 1975. His successor Jimmy Carter reinstated it in 1980, citing the Soviet intervention in Afghanistan. When the Obama administration ordered the military to allow women to take part in combat roles in 2013, the National Coalition for Men sued to declare the registration requirement as unconstitutional on the basis of sex.
The case made it all the way to the US Supreme Court, which ruled in June that the law was indeed sexist as written, but that Congress was considering updating it – which is precisely what happened.
Ironically, the Democrats – and Republicans that joined them – have ended up enacting precisely what a meme campaign during the 2016 election accused Hillary Clinton of championing. Back then, sympathizers of Republican candidate Donald Trump argued Clinton would ‘Draft Our Daughters’ to fight Russia, and spread memes about it all over social media.

Draft some of the illegal invaders into the Army to train them, give them food and shelter and teach them a trade. If they want to come to America, they must be willing to fight for the freedoms they seek. Judges used to give convicted criminals the option of enlisting in the army or going to prison, so it has worked in the past. The key to success is to limit the percentage of these illegal invaders low enough as to not disrupt our fighting capabilities.
Hey dudes, as I asked in a email about women being drafted in “The Second Promised Land” (America), is the mantra of drafted women in Hollywierd costumes:”My name is psycho”?
“The Divine One” Adolf Hitler would not allow German women to be conscripted to fight in the war against Germania that had its origins in 1933:”JUDEA DECLARES WAR ON GERMANY” 24th March 1933. You all know the consequences of what happens when you put a gun in the hands of mentally unstable individuals: the classic examples are WW2, Vietnam, Korea, Iraq, to name but a few.
Hey dudes, you know the score, the mentality of the unstable with a gun in their hands is:”I have power over life and death,” but the real power of the gun, like any weapon, is defensive. (120 ihs)
After Roe v. Wade (1973) – An American woman can just walk into an abortuary and have her baby murdered “for a fist full of dollars,” at U.S. taxpayers’ expense, while the child’s father goes on to impregnate another woman, yielding the same result, also at U.S. taxpayers’ expense. Thus: ONLY cruel and irresponsible MEN profit from this criminal insanity – Mindless and stone-hearted MEN who “don’t give a flying feather” about a woman’s pain, suffering, heartache, and grief! Toxic guilt, psychological distress, emotional trauma, and physiolotical schocks and complications such as profuse bleeding or bloodborne infection leading to death of the abortion victim! A woman can go commit infanticide for a butcher’s profits but God forbid she should be caught “smoking in a public building!” A bald eagle is a “protected species” while a Human Baby is a “disposable blob of tissue” in our so much “Western civilized society!” And all, in the guise of “abortion care,” mind you! But abortion is infanticide – a Human Baby dies! And all, in the guise of “reproductive rights!” But the baby is dead and there is NO reproduction of life! The LEFTIST BUTCHER screams “it’s her body” but kills another body – the baby in her womb! All, in the guise of “privacy rights!” Murder is now “legal” as a “private right?” God have Mercy on us all for allowing this criminal insanity to continue marring and soiling and denigrating and shaming civilized living in Western Culture! *
Roe v. Wade, Virginia wade won.
Don’t worry, the ‘women’ are trannies.
