In yet another reminder of the left’s warped value system, LGBT activists are up in arms because Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth ordered the Navy to rename a ship that had honored pederast and gay rights “icon” Harvey Milk.
The renaming is being done to reflect the Navy’s “priorities of reestablishing the warrior culture” pursuant to the wishes of Hegseth and President Donald Trump, according to an internal memo viewed by Military.com.
While a new name has not been revealed, it will be made public on June 13, the memo stated. As a reminder, June is “pride” month.
In a surprise to no one, the USNS Harvey Milk was christened in 2016 during the presidency of Barack Obama, who also posthumously awarded him the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
Milk, a gay-rights activist in San Francisco during the 1970s, was a diving officer in the Navy.
After his “less than honorable” discharge in 1955, he became a vocal gay rights activist, who later won a seat on the San Francisco board of supervisors in 1977.
Predictably, the usual motley crew of leftists expressed outrage at Hegseth’s decision to rename the Navy ship celebrating Milk.
In a statement Tuesday, Democratic Rep. Nancy Pelosi of California condemned the renaming as a “spiteful move [that] does not strengthen our national security or the ‘warrior’ ethos.’”
“Instead, it is a surrender of a fundamental American value: to honor the legacy of those who worked to build a better country,” she huffed.
