A plucking board must be one element if U.S. defense restoration is to take place. Why? Simply this: since the Pentagon began mandating leftist, racist Critical Race Theory (CRT)-based ideological indoctrination under the term DEI and, in the process, diverting precious resources from legitimate combat readiness in favor of utopian foolishness, no U.S. senior military leader is known to have done what Air Force chief of staff Gen. Ron Fogleman did a generation ago. In 1997, Fogleman – universally admired and respected by those who know him – resigned on principle due to the scapegoating of an Air Force one-star who was blamed for the Khobar Towers attack in 1996.
Twenty-five years later, a safe estimate is that near-zero general/flag officers resigned on principle when the Biden Pentagon implemented its morale-lowering and combat readiness-degrading initiatives within the now-dwindling ranks. Sadly, dozens of examples could be brought forward which demonstrate similar ideological indoctrination of the armed forces, directly or indirectly. One telling case, however, occurred in May 2021 when Secretary Austin fired a lieutenant colonel who dared to challenge the department’s CRT/DEI-based mandates. Prior to investigating, Austin relieved the officer on grounds of participating in “prohibited partisan political activity.”
