Here’s Trump’s Plan to Purge the Pentagon of the Woke Brass<\/a><\/p>\n

President-elect Donald J. Trump is sending signals to the military brass. They\u2019re going back to protecting our country, killing our enemies, and enhancing our national security. The era of woke nonsense and sensitivity training is over. The Wall Street Journal first reported on Trump\u2019s plans for the Pentagon, alluding to the \u201cchilling\u201d effect it could have on the officer corps, but the president-elect has a mandate and should use it.<\/p>\n

The reported executive order would create a \u201cwarrior board\u201d of retired generals and other senior personnel who would review the leadership qualities of the officers in question. There\u2019s no re-election effort lingering overhead either, so don\u2019t be shocked if this executive is issued. It\u2019s time to clean house (via\u00a0WSJ<\/a>):<\/p>\n

The Trump transition team is considering a draft executive order that establishes a \u201cwarrior board\u201d of retired senior military personnel with the power to review three- and four-star officers and to recommend removals of any deemed unfit for leadership.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

If Donald Trump approves the order, it could fast-track the removal of generals and admirals found to be \u201clacking in requisite leadership qualities,\u201d according to a draft of the order reviewed by The Wall Street Journal. But it could also create a chilling effect on top military officers, given the president-elect\u2019s past vow to fire \u201cwoke generals,\u201d referring to officers seen as promoting diversity in the ranks at the expense of military readiness.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

As commander in chief, Trump can fire any officer at will, but an outside board whose members he appoints would bypass the Pentagon\u2019s regular promotion system, signaling across the military that he intends to purge a number of generals and admirals.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The draft order says it aims to establish a review that focuses \u201con leadership capability, strategic readiness, and commitment to military excellence.\u201d The draft doesn\u2019t specify what officers need to do or present to show if they meet those standards. The draft order originated with one of several outside policy groups collaborating with the transition team, and is one of numerous executive orders under review by Trump\u2019s team, a transition official said.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The warrior board would be made up of retired generals and noncommissioned officers, who would send their recommendations to the president. Those identified for removal would be retired at their current rank within 30 days.<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

There\u2019s likely to be a media overreaction, and officers who engaged in this DEI\/woke nonsense are likely to retire instead of fighting this board. Whatever the reason, I like the blueprint. Let\u2019s see if the administration follows through.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
