Lt Col. Matthew Lohmeier, commander of the 11th Space Warning Squadron, was removed from his position after criticizing both Marxism and critical race theory.
From The Daily Caller:
Lt Col. Matthew Lohmeier, commander of 11th Space Warning Squadron at Buckley Air Force Base, Colo., was relieved from duty over a “loss of trust and confidence in his ability to lead,” a Space Force spokesperson told Military.com.
“This decision was based on public comments made by Lt. Col. Lohmeier in a recent podcast. Lt. Gen. Whiting has initiated a Command Directed Investigation on whether these comments constituted prohibited partisan political activity,” the spokesperson added.
Lohmeier earlier this month self-published a book titled “Irresistible Revolution: Marxism’s Goal of Conquest & the Unmaking of the American Military,” which is described as “a timely and bold contribution from an active-duty Space Force lieutenant colonel who sees the impact of a neo-Marxist agenda at the ground level within our armed forces.”
He appeared on the podcast “Information Operation” with host L. Todd Wood to promote the book and spoke out against U.S. institutions, including the military, increasingly adopting leftist practices like critical race theory.
Lohmeier pointed out that the diversity and inclusion agenda will divide the military not unite it. Lohmeier also stated that he did not intend to “demonize” Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin in his comments.
How is “Trusting the Science” missing the most obvious genetic science of
xx and xy chromosomes? Can claims of non-binary genetic makeup be proven?
Oh… gimme a second because the dark humor is amazing. I’ll take phukkery for 9001 hundred, Alex.
What is mRNA?
Why isn’t the FDA backing up the Fauci Ouchie?
Oh, I know. I know.
Liberal Socialists haven’t paid them yet.
Toss Whiting for treason!!!
Wait What ?…. The United States Military is being Criticized Over Criticizing Communism ?…. My whole Life, and my Years in the military, Communists were the Enemy ( AND STILL ARE )…. And NOW they have Infiltrated the white house the Lower chamber of the Legislature , and the Upper chamber as well…. Time to get a ROPE ! and Drag these Communists Out !
Hey Russia
Hey China
Are you taking notice?????
I hope so!!!
The woke generation needs a good ass kicking, but can you wait maybe 15-20 years until I’m gone?????
Those grumbling about the picture of the non com need to relax. The point of this piece was not about the picture. It is about the sorry mindset of the people currently in charge of the military, especially that moron puppet Lloyd Austin.
Looks like the author has little or no knowledge about rank in the military. While them man in the AF uniform wears an impressive chest full of medals, he is an enlisted man, below the rank of even a 2nd Lieutenant. He’s the Chief Master Sargent of the Space Force. Of course as an officer of much higher rank when I was on active duty, I’d still have payed attention to what he said. If the truth be known, as my father, a Colonel said, the Sargents run the military on a daily basis.
The rank insignia of a Lt. Colonel is worn on the shoulder and is a silver oak leak.
Majority of generals and admirals want to protect there very generous O-7 to O-10
Pension….and more importantly, they want to keep that VIP parking space in front of the front door of the base Exchange & Commissary.
So if throwing a lowly O-5 under the bus is what it takes to keep any undue “attention” from coming their way on their watch, then so be it.
Ever notice how they all wait until they’re safely retired before they write their “tell all” book about how badly “civilian” bureaucrats screwed up the military?
But they will never put in their “tell all” book that they always went along with the “screwing” so that they would not cause any waves and jeopardize their own career..
Those are our “warriors” for you!!
If you’re going to run a story about a commander don’t use a picture of an enlisted person!
I’d TRUST HIM over that bunch of Commies in the White House. It won’t be long before we won’t have a military as Commie Joe Panty Sniffer is handing us over to China for a farm colony. We won’t have to worry about it has Chinese guards can kill you for fun and use you for plant food. We are in BIG TROUBLE people and most of you just sit with you thumb up your ass trying to decide who or what you are and which safe space rest room to use. If American goes down to china you won’t have to worry long as they don’t care and you will be slave labor farmer or turd bucket carrier.
The irony is that Karl Marx was absolutely a racist. Read the oldest available translation of Marx’ letters to Engels.
These people are stupid.
Apparently, we’ve lost our own military! How phantasmagorical is THAT!!!! Fifty years of cold war with communism changes to this!!! Who the hell is allowing such treason??
“Lt. Gen. Whiting has initiated a Command Directed Investigation on whether these comments constituted prohibited partisan political activity,” the spokesperson added.”
AND CRITICAL RACE THEORY ISN’T PARTISAN POLITICAL ACTIVITY?????
Not that the Air Force ever REALLY was the “military,” but this 3 star general, who is most assuredly white himself, is doing the political thing to protect his own azz from POSSIBLE 2nd guessing by this socialist administration.
Lt General Whiting is protecting his generous 3 star pension.
Soon these white generals and admirals will be permanently replaced by minorities….. and that will be the end of it.
And all of the white guys who never make it to the top can thank the white guys who made it before them and did their best to make sure that they wouldn’t!!!
