Pete Hegseth Declares War on Woke Garbage' in Military: We Are Done With That Sh*t'

"Secretary of War Pete Hegseth reiterated his vow to purge the military of diversity and inclusion efforts and bring an end to woke garbage in the military in a blistering address to top commanders Tuesday. Speaking at a gathering of generals, the Trump-appointed Pentagon chief said he had made it his mission to uproot the obvious distractions that made us less capable and less lethal."

"You might say, we're ending the war on warriors, Hegseth told the assembled brass, while blasting what he called the promotion of risk averse go-along to get-along conformists. Too many officers, he added, had risen for the wrong reasons based on their race, based on gender quotas, based on historic so-called firsts. The remarks underscore the Trump administration's full-throttle attempt to reorient the Pentagon away from social policy."

"No more identity months, DEI offices, dudes in dresses, he told the audience. No more climate change worship, no more division, distraction or gender delusions, no more debris. He argued the military had lost our way under foolish and reckless political leaders who, he claimed, turned the Pentagon into the woke department. That era, he said, was over."

Pete Hegseth vowed to purge the military of diversity, equity and inclusion programs and end what he called 'woke' initiatives, describing them as distractions that reduce capability and lethality. He addressed senior commanders and framed the effort as a cultural battle, calling for elimination of identity months, DEI offices, and gender-related accommodations and criticizing climate change focus as worship. He accused previous political leaders of turning the Pentagon into the 'woke department' and criticized promotions based on race, gender quotas, or historic firsts. He pledged to clear distractions, remove debris, and refocus leaders on restoring military effectiveness.
