The Army’s emphasis on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) requirements destroyed the core mission of warfighting by prioritizing social agendas over operational effectiveness. By focusing heavily on meeting racial and gender quotas and satisfying politically-driven mandates, the Army diverted attention from developing combat readiness and cohesion, which are essential elements for success on the battlefield.
These diversity measures, forced on the rank and file by radical leftist “woke” Pentagon top brass and bureaucrats, has fostered resentment and division among troops, and has also dramatically reduced retention and recruiting. The end result is a destructive impact on mutual trust and unity vital for combat readiness and mission success, as well as difficulty maintaining combat readiness.
Furthermore, DEI requirements have led to the selection and promotion of personnel based on factors other than merit and capability, which in turn compromises the Army’s overall operational strength and lethality of our armed forces.
All of these adverse impacts ultimately detract from the singular focus on winning wars, which is the Army’s is highest priority and raison d’etre.
The military’s flagrant persecution and termination of service members who refused Lloyd Austin’s unlawful mandate to be injected with the Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) COVID-19 shot highlighted a troubling pattern of discrimination against many conservative and Christian personnel. For example, the majority of requests for religious accommodations were denied, often with blanket rejections that disregarded individual circumstances, in spite of longstanding protections for religious beliefs under both the Uniformed Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) provisions and the US Constitution.
Service members who cited sincere religious convictions or concerns about the vaccine’s experimental nature faced punitive actions including demotions, denial of leave, blocks to promotions, and more than 8000 career service members were abruptly terminated from military service, some right before a 20-year retirement which cost them retirement benefits and future medical benefits. Many were terminated with General or even dishonorable discharges, which then made it more difficult and even prevented the service member from finding civilian employment.
Many of these soldiers who refused the shot were labeled as insubordinate, unfit for service, of even more damaging, called “domestic terrorists.” Tragically, the majority of those labeled so negatively had had exemplary records and demonstrated their willingness to comply with all other military standards and orders.
These punitive actions from top Military leadership were egregious in the extreme. These actions were designed to intimidate, coerce and punish those who did not comply with the unlawful mandate for the COVID injection – a clear violation of service member’s Constitutional and civil rights. Leadership bias against Christian and conservative beliefs ignored the military’s history of respecting personal and religious liberties, creating a chilling effect on free expression within the ranks. The alienation of a significant portion of the force weakened unit cohesion and morale, driving away experienced personnel and diminishing overall readiness at a time when retaining skilled service members is critical to national security.
All of the DEI and persecutory actions from the Pentagon down through the chain of command has created a climate of mistrust and alienation, disproportionately affecting those whose faith, medical conditions, and/or political beliefs shaped their decisions. The persecution of those who did not follow the “narrative” undermined morale, eroded trust in leadership, and sent a message that traditional values or dissenting opinions were unwelcome in the ranks, jeopardizing the cohesion, core values, and respect for differing views that has been a hallmark of the US Military.
Military field commanders and Flag officers who refused to honor religious exemptions sent the clear message that ideological conformity was more valued than individual rights or diverse perspectives.
President Donald Trump’s nominee for Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, has the opportunity to restore the military’s focus on its core mission by reforming or eliminating harmful diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) requirements. Hegseth’s leadership is expected to prioritize merit-based performance, mission readiness, and unit cohesion over divisive social engineering efforts.
By reducing bureaucratic mandates that have distracted from warfighting capabilities, he can create an environment where all service members are evaluated based on their skills, dedication, and ability to contribute to the mission.
Hegseth’s approach promises to rebuild trust among the ranks, especially among those who felt alienated by politically motivated policies. As a combat veteran himself who understands the ethos of the warrior, he has committed to refocus the military on its primary goal: preparing to deter and defeat adversaries. His reforms aim to strengthen morale, enhance lethality, and restore the military’s reputation as a unified, apolitical force dedicated to the defense of the nation.
Pete Hegseth is the right man to weed out the cancer of political rot that has destroyed the proud ethos and heritage of America’s armed forces. This work will not be for the “faint of heart”; in fact, it requires the heart of a warrior, which we have in Pete Hegseth. The work will be difficult and likely fought by the status quo bureaucrats, politicians, and “woke” career Flag officers who have aided and abetted the very values of the military they supposedly represent.
Pete Hegseth, has the right temperament and experience to bring accountability for all the bad decisions, bias, violation of core civil and Constitutional rights of our service members that have permeated the Military during the Obama eight years and the last four years under Biden.
This is a “do or die” moment for America if our military is to regain the proud heritage and warrior ethos that led to the defeat of the mighty armies of Japan and Germany in World War II.
