Remember LTC Lohmeier, who was recently relieved of command by Space Operations Command commander LTG Stephen Whiting due to loss of trust and confidence? So does Retired Army Gen, former NATO supreme allied commander who served more than 30 years before retiring in 2000. And running a failed presidential run in 2004, but that’s another story. COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. \u2014 The military career of a Buckley Space Force Base commander remains in limbo after comments he made on a podcast last month got him in hot water.<\/p>\n Lt. Col. Matthew Lohmeier was relieved of command of the 11th Space Warning Squadron after promoting his self-published book, which asserts a neo-Marxist agenda in the military.<\/p>\n Lohmeier believes the military\u2019s efforts to teach diversity, equity and inclusion are rooted in so-called \u201ccritical race theory,\u201d which he says stems from Marxism, and instead of uniting is dividing the military.<\/p>\n Lohmeier, a 2006 Air Force Academy graduate, was removed by Lt. Gen. Stephen Whiting, Space Operations Command commander, because of Lohmeier\u2019s comments on the podcast and \u201cdue to loss of trust and confidence in his ability to lead,\u201d according to a statement the Space Force shared with Gazette sister paper, the Washington Examiner.<\/p>\n Whiting initiated a command directed investigation on whether Lohmeier\u2019s comments constituted prohibited partisan political activity, according to a Space Force statement. Much of the discussion and contention surrounding critical race theory comes from the political right.<\/p>\n A spokeswoman with for the secretary of the Air Force confirmed last week that Lohmeier remains under investigation and said there is no estimated time when a decision will be reached.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<\/p>\n Retired Army GEN Wesley Clark, former NATO supreme allied commander who served more than 30 years before retiring in 2000, said he kept his political views to himself during his career but would offer them up in private if a senior officer asked.<\/p>\n \u201cRight now there is no question in my mind that the current administration is yielding to so many liberal forces \u2026 that it is putting the military in a tough spot because the military is built on the principle of lethality,\u201d Clark said. \u201cAnd I\u2019m not sure that diversity and inclusion and equity are all part of that lethality equation.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n *facepalm* my italics<\/p>\n
\nLohmeier’s sins? He went on a conservative podcast to promote his self-published book, Irresistible Revolution: Marxism\u2019s Goal of Conquest & the Unmaking of the American Military.<\/em> Apparently the book alleges that Marxist ideologies are rapidly creeping into the U.S armed forces.
\nEnough. OAM sends.<\/p>\nRet. Gen. Clark comes to the defense of the relieved Space Force commander, agrees with his assertions<\/h3>\n
