A top GOP senator on the Armed Forces Committee said that members of the U.S. military should speak out about the spread of Marxism, coming in response to reports of a Space Force commander being relieved of his post earlier this month.
Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.), the ranking member on the Senate panel, said he is concerned after Lt. Col. Matthew Lohmeier was relieved by the Space Force. Lohmeier had self-published a book that went into details about the spread of Marxism and the quasi-Marxist Critical Race Theory being utilized in training in the military. Lohmeier told a podcast that is worried that Department of Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin is pushing an agenda “rooted in critical race theory” that promotes “diversity, inclusion, and equity,” which that “will divide us.”
