Witnesses Give ‘Stark Warning’ About America’s Future if Progressive Ideology Continues in Military

The effects of diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives in the U.S. military pose a grave threat to the nation, witnesses testified last week during a House Subcommittee on National Security, the Border, and Foreign Affairs hearing.

Unlike in business or higher education, where the damage of diversity hires may be on the bottom line or reputational, in the military, considerations of criteria apart from merit affect the ability to win wars, putting the nation at risk, argued Army Ranger veteran Will Thibeau.

“Like a drop of ink in a glass of water, the hint of ideology outside the scope of the military profession is corrosive to the force’s effectiveness,” he said. “Historical examples from 18th Century France to the Soviet Army of the late-Cold War reveal a slippery slope once factors outside the explicit context of military competence affect military decisions. Increasingly, objective military professionalism is now seen as one factor among many that allows leaders to ‘comprehensively’ evaluate a person, system, or policy; this, of course, being a euphemism for considerations of race and sex.”

Former Lt. Col. Matthew Lohmeier, meanwhile, who was fired from his command in the Space Force for exposing the damaging effects of DEI in the military, entered into the record a 100-page document of feedback from service members, veterans, and family members on how DEI initiatives are “hurting morale, dividing and distracting troops, disincentivizing Americans from service, and thereby destroying our recruiting and retention efforts.”

The comments, a sampling of which are included here, are damning:


"History is littered with examples of militaries whose consideration of political ideology precipitated a collapse in military professionalism, all of which served as a precursor to the collapse of their respective nations," warned Thibeau. "America should not wait to find out if we can outrun the drumbeat of such history."
