According to sources who spoke with Breitbart News, the Pentagon is scrambling to hide all evidence of how it prioritized diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) over combat readiness. The Pentagon’s “absolute disarray” includes “generals scrambling” due to the incoming Trump administration’s publicized plans to fire ‘woke’ senior military leaders.
President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team has already begun gathering names of senior officers who pushed DEI. People are trying to find out if they are on the list to be cut. “They are in panic mode,” the source said.
“DEI pages are starting to disappear off the main websites” the source explained. “They’re being archived as we speak. They are full-bore focused on cleaning up anything DEI-related,” the source said.
One source familiar with the plan told Breitbart News that an executive order has been drafted to create a panel to recommend those senior officers for elimination and that the EO is “definitely” going to Trump’s desk. “This is for real. This [EO] has made the cut,” the source said, adding that it is possible that it is still being revised and consulted with incoming leaders at the Pentagon.
a member of the Trump transition team has already begun reaching out to troop advocates for names, including Army whistleblower retired Green Beret Lt. Col. Pete “Doc” Chambers. Chambers served for 39 years in the Army and retired after he was told not to give his troops informed consent for the COVID vaccine.
Also working on gathering names is another Army whistleblower, retired Army Chief Warrant Officer 2 Samuel Shoemate, who was investigated by woke officers for running a whistleblower website and his advocacy for troops who did not want the COVID vaccine, as previously exclusively reported by Breitbart News.
Sources said, however, the EO is focused on DEI — not COVID — and that its purpose is to “reorient the U.S. military away from the woke ideology and priorities that has been foisted upon it” as far back as the Obama administration.
“The purpose of the EO is to restore the military leadership focus on keeping the country safe and when necessary, fighting the country’s wars…not these extraneous factors [such as] “white rage” and gender identity…just this full range of left-wing woke priorities that have impacted recruitment in the military and retention in the military and a person’s prospects of promotion in the military” the source familiar with the plan said.
The source said the people who worked on the EO have “stellar military policy credentials” both on the policy and legal side. “It was people who know what they’re talking about.”
