Military Draft Agency Reposts Message Suggesting Trump Win Will Turn U.S Into Nazi Germany
“For all you stupid f*cks out there that still believe military service will be voluntary. Remember Germany 1936.”
The Selective Service System (SSS), the federal agency responsible for the military draft, reposted a message suggesting President-elect Donald Trump’s win would turn America into 1936 Nazi Germany.

The SSS then posted it started an investigation into how it happened:
Yesterday an inappropriate X post related to a mandatory draft was reposted on the Selective Service Agency’s X account. We are investigating this incident to determine how this happened and are proactively taking steps to prevent this from happening in the future. The reposted content was removed when we became aware of it. The content of the repost in no way reflects the views of the Selective Service System.

Adolph Hiter reintroduced military conscription, which violated the Treaty of Versailles.
Hitler did this through the Military Service Law of 1935. Every 18-year-old male had to join the labor service corps for six months. Then, at 19, he had to serve in the military for two years.
The army grew to 550,000 men. He renamed the Reichswehr to the Wehrmacht.
I have an idea. How about we stop comparing Trump and his supporters to Nazis?
Don’t worry. As Maddow showed us last night, the left is already working on changing the language so they can avoid using the words Nazi and Hitler.

Trump on 1/20/25, one minute after being sworn in should personally fire the dumb-@ss that wrote that.
And their bosses who have done nothing
The whole agency has done nothing since Vietnam. Abolish it.
Give Congress two options — expand Selective Service Registration to include women, or eliminate the agency.
How about we include women, lower the age that penalties begin to 18 from 26.
Bonus round – call up all the chicken Hawk neocon/globalist and offer them the opportunity to go to Ukraine under the leadership of Liz Cheney and Victoria Nuland in totally not US affiliated international volunteer corps to offset the N Koreans, Chechen and whatnot on the other side?
“in totally not US affiliated international volunteer corps”
CrackRock.
I disagree.
They managed to chase me down in the 80s at a military service academy to ask why I hadn’t registered.
Well? Why DIDN’T you register, you draft dodger!!!1!!1!
/S
I enlisted in the Air Force at 17. Completed my first active duty tour at 24, and entered the Air Force Reserve. Recalled to active duty to visit Noriega and stayed active duty until I retired one month shy of 30 years.
Tried to use a Pell Grant to go back to school. Denied. I didn’t register for Selective Service. Except I did while on active duty.
I demand that women be registered for Selective Service (it’s not a draft). If they don’t, they should be denied federal student loans like men are.
When processing out of the Army in 1989, one of the things I had to do was update my draft registration. Even though by the time my Reserve commitment was over I would no longer be eligible for the draft.
I’m assuming the Ready Reserve would be called up before starting up a draft.
blame this on Obama – he set motion the tranformation of the american military where Woke/DEI/fighting climate change became the focus of the military. That is how a woke idiot got to the level that something so stupid got posted.
That requires identifying who posted it.
They seem to know plenty about German history and not much of American history, don’t they?
They know a lot about telling lies and nothing about telling the truth.
Coincidentally, they’re the ones who hear the racist dog whistles too.
GIYF and any moron can use it.
Anyone who calls any American president, past, present, or future a NAZI, a fascist, or compares them to Hitler has no clue what they are talking about. I didn’t like the memes of Obama in a brown shirt and Hitler mustache, and I don’t like the same smears used on Trump. I’ve visited the concentration camps in Europe. There is no parallel between a duly elected US president and Hitler or the NAZIs so KNOCK IT OFF!
Amusingly, one of those called a Nazi was Eisenhower, over school racial integration.
You know, the guy who lead the allied military in Europe that put an end to that particular stain on humanity, insisting that everything in the concentration camps be documented in expectation of Holocaust denialism.
(Never mind that the “reason” for the label was most certainly not a Nazi party platform.)
Hum… how many Western Civ nations have or had compulsory service? Not reserved for just 1939 Germany.
Israel
Those war-mongers in Switzerland.
And Sweden.
And it’s been a social disaster for Israel. Israel would be much better off had it abolished conscription decades ago. It would still be better off if it were to abolish it now.
Israel
South Korea
Finland
These are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.
Technically South Korea is at war. Let’s hope Trump can end that and redirect our troops to our borders.
Inscrutable Orientals – wage war by heavily patrolling a border while trading balloons full of propaganda and poop. We only seem to get in the messy ones where you surrender your entire arms complement to the enemy and then flee.
Unfortunately, people such as this are in every federal agency and department. Trump must make it clear to his newly appointed staff and agency heads that they must weed out these people. I know they can’t be fired but they can be reassigned. Get them out of the system that Trump needs to rebuild our nation. These cowards will only slow down or stall any work that they handle so they must be removed. That means the entire upper echelon of the FBI and DoJ. The military needs to have a reckoning too.
“I know they can’t be fired”
‘
Fix that, and then fire them.
Fire them anyway. They can sue. Trump then ignores the judge.
After all, he has “IMMUNITY.” That magical power that makes all presidents dick-taters. At least according to leftists.
That’s not how immunity works.
You are so damned full of yourself that you can’t see a snarky comment if it’s rears its head and says “Hey Ficktard, This is a snarky comment!”
I fondly remember my sixth grade civics textbook, in which it was explained to us mental sponges that the ending of the “spoils system” was a historic watershed in governmental perfection. No, no it wasn’t . Not if you want to avoid an administrative state and preserve a representative republic.
My recommendation is move their job to North Shore Alaska, Give them a heated warehouse with rows upon rows of empty desks, no phones, no computers and block cell phone signals in the building. They have to clock in every morning and clock out every afternoon.
Tell them that they either move themselves to North Shore, of resign their position.
Heated? Cram them in there tight enough that body heat gets it done…or not. I.suppose they could have a warming tent for their 10 minute break every two hours of their mandatory 12 hours day outside counting snowflakes.
Every federal agency needs to be yanked out of those fancy buildings and their fancy furniture sold off. Metal desks, linoleum floors, everything minimum to get their alleged jobs done.
That goes especially for the Fibbies.
And bunk beds, open showers and commodes like we had in boot camp.
A POTUS’ authority to conduct the business of the United States (executive authority) is delegated down the chain of command. A POTUS can rescind that authority from any non-compliant agency, agency office, agency official, or employee. Those so divested of authority to act in the stead of the POTUS would no longer be able to access government networks or classified documents, authorize spending/purchasing, nor to conduct any government business. They will still be employed, they will still be paid. But they will only be able to twiddle their thumbs. Congress will have no say in this. An attempt to meddle with the POTUS’ authority to grant/rescind delegations of executive authority would be a violation of the separation of powers.
Yep. Reassigned to Ice Station Zebra in the Arctic Circle to help count snowflakes as part of an ‘interagency TF’. They can always resign instead….
What does 1936 have to do with anything??? What a fool! Like it was hard to get uniform-loving Germans in the army!!!
Abolish it along with DoE and NPR/PBS
And Amtrak and National Endowment for the Arts and …
We have a huge debt, the best way to manage that is massive downsizing of gov employee, at least 50%.
I would like to propose that anyone currently in the military who is not eligible for retirement be allowed to break their service contract and leave immediately. I would also instruct close scrutiny on reenlistment applications, with the emphasis not renewing any one who looks like a potential problem. This is not specifically anti-gay or anti-trans, or anti-woman. It IS specifically anti-troublemaker. The idea is to weed the garden. It is better to have less people than problem people.
But first, you’d have to remove all the problem people in charge of hiring, especially since they go all the way to the top.
The nation lived with Selective Service for many decades. Nobody liked it but it was just one of those things we did.
I had a 2S deferment when I was in college I knew I couldn’t keep due to boredom with school so I enlisted in the Air Force in June 1969. Eight months later in February 1970 while I was in my first tech school in Illinois my mother told me I lost my deferment because I was no longer enrolled. She sent me my new 1A card. The tech school class had a good yuck from that. I guess the local draft board didn’t see the letter from the USAF. I told my mom to tell them where I was if they came looking for me.

My brother got recruiting mailers from the Marines while he was in country Vietnam with the Army!
According to my Dad, one of his cousins went into the Army during WWII, got wounded, went AWOL from the hospital to join the Marines, got wounded, then went AWOL from the Marines to join the Navy.
When they caught up with him it was a merry he’ll of paperwork.
(But, then, my Dad also says he had cousins named Floyd, Lloyd, and Boyd.)
As FJB would say, “No Joke!”
When I was researching my husband’s family, we found an ancestor some number of greats-grandfather, George Washington Carle, who joined the Union Army as a calvaryman (at age 41), was wounded and sent home with a discharge, enlisted again, this time in the artillery – again wounded and sent home, then enlisted in the infantry. Served the rest of the war in that capacity.
The history of his service came out when a newspaper wrote about it in the 1920’s. He was over 100 at the time.
We gotta eliminate all the deferments if we end up keeping the selective service other than for truly physically unfit conditions (flat feet don’t count IMO, they can wear special shoes and serve as cook, clerk or just painting rocks) or they are a legit whacko Crazy person.
This stuff simply gives Trump and Musk a head start on figuring out who to fire first. Keep it up!
JackinSilverSpring just for starters
You’re FIRED! (TICK-TOCK)
The Selective Service System has no need of an X account in the first place.
Shut down the account, and get back to work on what you are actually supposed to be doing.
Among other things, it’d be a b— to learn German, I tried before, and it took me eight years to pass two years of college German. Fortunately, I now know enough to translate Hogan’s Heroes into English, so I have that going for me.
How about moving whole agencies to a desert or artic location to live and work in tents?
