Dr. Deborah Birx reminded viewers on American Agenda this week that her military service wasn’t just a line on a résumé — it was the crucible that forged the leadership America needs in trying times. She spoke proudly about how the uniform gave her opportunities to serve the country, lead teams, and cut through bureaucracy to get real work done, a message sorely needed in an era when leadership is often celebrated in name only.
Birx’s record is unmistakable: decades in uniform, frontline medical work at Walter Reed, and a rise to the rank of colonel before moving into global health leadership. That kind of service builds discipline, accountability, and a results-first mentality — qualities our country should be clamoring for instead of denouncing when they appear in public servants.
Her story is a rebuke to the left’s contempt for service and sacrifice. While the coastal elites lecture and cancel, Americans who actually serve are stepping up, and our military is stronger for it — recruiting momentum and renewed pride under conservative leadership are not accidents but the consequence of putting real patriots in charge.
Don’t let the smear machine rewrite the record: Birx knows firsthand how ugly the political battlefield can be, and she has openly acknowledged the toll that partisanship takes on dedicated public servants who simply want to protect the country. The media may try to pin every nuance of a pandemic response on a single person, but the truth is messy and leadership requires courage, not spinelessness.
Americans should take Birx at her word and embrace a return to honor, competence, and toughness in our institutions — values learned in uniform and proven in the field. If we want a safer, healthier nation, we should reward those who served, listen to their hard-earned lessons, and stop letting careerists and pundits set the terms of the debate.
