Meta is making big moves into the military world, and conservatives should pay attention. The tech giant is scooping up former Pentagon brass and Trump-era insiders to push its AI tools and virtual reality systems onto the government. This isn’t just business as usual – it’s a dangerous blend of Silicon Valley greed and federal overreach.
The company recently opened its Llama AI system for military use, a clear power grab disguised as patriotism. They’re now hunting for policy wonks with top security clearances to lobby the White House and defense agencies. When Big Tech starts courting generals instead of innovators, America’s warfighters become guinea pigs for Mark Zuckerberg’s profit machine.
Francis Brennan, a Trump White House alum, now runs Meta’s D.C. spin machine. His hiring proves this isn’t about “serving users” – it’s about infiltrating government decision-making. Our military deserves better than having its strategies shaped by social media executives who’ve repeatedly failed to protect everyday Americans’ data.
Meta’s job postings tell the real story. They want bureaucrats who can grease the wheels for massive defense contracts, not engineers who improve products. One new hire bragged online about “protecting national security” through government “intelligence sharing” – corporate speak for selling out to the surveillance state.
This military pivot reeks of desperation after years of failed metaverse fantasies. Now they’re using AI as a Trojan horse to become taxpayer-funded arms dealers. Conservatives know better than to trust coastal elites who view our troops as another revenue stream.
The Pentagon’s revolving door spins faster than ever. Retired generals trading uniforms for Meta stock options is the swamp at its worst. These deals get cut in closed-door meetings while working families struggle with inflation caused by reckless government spending.
Our founders warned about standing armies – they never imagined Zuckerberg’s algorithm army. Every tax dollar funneled to Meta’s defense projects is a dollar stolen from securing borders or supporting veterans. Real national security starts with strength, not subcontracting to Silicon Valley oligarchs.
Freedom-loving Americans must demand transparency. Will Meta’s AI target our enemies or track conservatives? The same company that censors speech now wants to outfit our military. That’s not innovation – it’s a wake-up call to put America First before tech giants replace Old Glory with their corporate logo.
