DEI has no place in the military. The purpose of the military is to protect the people of the United States not to virtue signal or focus on the identities of individuals. Biden and Harris appointed a slew of individuals to top positions to promote a woke military. Trump is restoring sanity and dignity to our armed forces by removing these DEI policies.
Trump will sign an executive order to retire any three or four-star general “lacking in requisite leadership qualities.” We suddenly have about three times as many three and four-star generals and admirals now than we did at the peak of World War II. Trump’s order could create a super-majority of the 162 three-star and 44 four-star officers off active duty.
There is an onslaught of strange perversions happening in the US military that are quite frankly embarrassing. Maryland National Guard Colonel Brian T. Connelly marked his retirement by posing in his military uniform while wearing perverse fetish gear that made him appear to look like a dog. You simply cannot make this stuff up.
This June, Deputy Secretary of Defense Kathleen Hicks said that the military needed to focus its efforts on trans members. “We’ve heard concerns about … policies focused on the needs of nonbinary service members. Please know our commitment is resolute, just as it has been over the past three-and-a-half years, to continue our progress in full alignment with our focus on readiness and our focus on the well-being of our people, on which our readiness depends,” Hicks said.
Just look at our US Assistant Secretary of Health, Dr. Rachel Levine. They likely cannot pass the fitness portion requirement of the military requirement. How is this person the face of health? How we even allowed things to deteriorate to this point is beyond comprehension. Levine infamously claimed climate change disproportionately hurt black Americans as the woke pandering message has become utter nonsense.
The Department of Defense has spent countless funds on DEI initiatives under Biden-Harris, shelling out $68 million in 2022, $86.5 million in 2023, and a requested $114.7 million in 2024. Instead of using funds to improve national security, Biden and Harris spent millions on woke ideology that weakened our military.
Bureaucrats are incapable of changing course even when their policies fail. Amid low recruitment, the US Navy invited an active-duty drag queen to be its digital ambassador. Former US Navy SEAL Team Six member Robert J. O’Neill was part of the special operation to kill Osama bin Laden, one of the best and bravest our country has to offer. “Alright. The US Navy is now using an enlisted sailor Drag Queen as a recruiter. I’m done. China is going to destroy us. YOU GOT THIS NAVY. I can’t believe I fought for this bulls-t,” O’Neill wrote. “Not this Navy veteran. I’m ashamed of the Navy,” wrote another veteran. “It’s an insult to every veteran. The army kept making me go to trans EO-type classes before I retired. Nope. Didn’t go.”
Who the hell were they trying to recruit? Are these people even mentally fit to serve? It’s almost like they’re begging for a future draft of “all persons,” because the military knows better. The Airforce saw an uptick in recruitment after Tom Cruise released his film “Top Gun” portraying a fearless fighter pilot. You are not “fearless” for dressing up as the opposite sex. You can do what you want in the privacy of your bedroom but it has no place in the military, classrooms, or elsewhere. This recruitment strategy FAILED and was a slap in the face to our veterans who do not want to be portrayed in this light.
We saw the LGBTQ+ flag flown alongside our proud branches of the military – WHY? This claim that WOKE is somehow establishing EQUALITY is total nonsense. We are equal as human beings but not in talent, and it is a threat to the security of the United States to appoint people to top roles in our military when they lack the proper qualifications. The intense woke narrative that defies all logic has caused the pendulum to swing in the other direction. People, even if not especially within the gay community, are no longer afraid to call the woke narrative utter nonsense.
