House Republican Israel Caucus Holds News Conference On Ongoing Conflict In Middle East Two dozen Republican lawmakers, led by Rep. Doug Lamborn (R-CO), are calling on the acting Air Force secretary to reinstate the Air Force lieutenant colonel who was fired from his job at Space Force after warning Marxism was spreading within the military.
Lamborn and 23 colleagues sent a letter to Acting Secretary John Roth and Space Force Commander Gen. Jay Raymond on Wednesday after Lt. Col. Matthew Lohmeier was fired after appearing on several podcasts to discuss his new book, which warns of Marxism and critical race theory spreading within the military.
“We call on you to reinstate Lieutenant Colonel Lohmeier immediately, barring any violations of the UCMJ which have not been publicly disclosed. Whether you agree with him or not, no rational American can review his level-headed critique of critical race theory-based “diversity, equity, and inclusion” training the military is currently conducting and conclude that his comments on that subject deserve relief of command,” they wrote.
Lamborn said in a separate statement : I am growing increasingly concerned about the proliferation of training and discussions rooted in critical race theory throughout the Department of Defense. This Marxist ideology teaches racial prejudice and collective guilt. The fact that it would be taught and promoted in the U.S. military is deeply disturbing. I am extremely concerned that advancing critical race theory will make it more difficult to attract patriotic talent to join the Armed Forces. The military should focus on our national security threats, not pandering to one political ideology. I can’t imagine a better way to weaken ourselves in the midst of a great-power competition with China and Russia. Lieutenant Colonel Lohmeier listened to the Secretary of Defense and stood up against extremism on the left. He should be praised for his courage. The Republican letter also highlights the discrepancy between the treatment of those who voice concerns about the left versus the many senior commanders who voice support for the left.
For example, it notes that in June 2020, then-Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. David Goldfein stated, “Every […]

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
