The military’s “woke” policies are putting race before effectiveness, according to two veterans who now serve in Congress.
Reps. Mike Waltz (R-FL) and Wesley Hunt (R-TX) joined a conversation on Fox News Tonight, explaining how leftist policies are affecting the military ability to win wars.
“I found out what was being taught at West Point, which was a seminar titled ‘How to Cope with your Whiteness and White Rage’ at West Point,” said Waltz, a combat-decorated Green Beret who served more than 26 years in the U.S. Army.
“They were recommending to not say ‘mom’ and ‘dad,’ not say ‘boyfriend,’ ‘girlfriend,’ and they’re being taught that the flag that they signed up to die for is inherently, at its core, bad — that it’s misogynist, that it is racist, that it is colonialist,” Waltz continued.
“A lot of recruits are saying, ‘That’s not what we signed up for,’ and it is tearing our military apart from the inside, and it’s impossible to avoid the conversation.” . . . . (read more on Washington Examiner and watch video from show)
