Under Austin’s instruction, the Pentagon’s top lawyer and other officials will review and update the department’s definition of “prohibited extremist activities” for all service members. Critics have said the Pentagon needs to take into account how extremism has evolved in the digital era, and how some adherents engage in more loosely formed networks.

The secretary also called for updated screening questionnaires for potential recruits to gather information about current or previous extremist behavior ”to ensure that only the best qualified recruits are selected for the services,” according to the memo.

The questionnaires, which would be standardized across the armed forces, would also clarify any “demonstrably false answers” that could later hold a service member accountable and form the basis “for punitive action for fraudulent enlistment,” it said.

The secretary ordered the department to provide training to troops preparing to retire to make them aware they could be targets for recruitment by extremist groups and to work with federal agencies to enable veterans the chance “to report any potential contact with an extremist group should they choose to,” the memo said.

The quickest way to stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun. Your rights should never be infringed by the government. I stand — without apology — for your 2nd Amendment rights.

The GOP has no plan to stop gun violence.

They have no plan to address climate change.

They have no plan to improve healthcare.

They never had an infrastructure week.

What the hell do they stand for? What do they even do? Vote them out. Every last one.
