Commentary for a Sunday: Senator Exposes Quota for White Male Officers to Challenge Joint Chiefs Chair Nominee

The Regime’s RACIST nominee for Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff had called for a 43% quota for white male Air Force officers as Chief of Staff of the Air Force.

Was that Constitutional? How about being in accordance with sound military protocol? Imagine the political machinations if a significantly reduced “quota” was set for black male Air Force officers.

This from frontpagemag.com.

In May, Front Page Magazine broke the story that Air Force Chief of Staff Charles Q. Brown Jr., who had been put forward by The Regime as the next chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, had signed off on a 43% quota for white male officers.

As the investigative piece warned Brown’s quotas limit the number of white officers to 67% and cut white men down to 43%.

The Air Force officer corps is currently 77% white: getting it down to 67%, a reduction of 10%, would require serious effort to purge white officers and bar the doors to any new ones.

Reducing the number of white men in the officer corps to a minority, 43%, would cripple the service and wipe out generations of talent: especially when 86% of pilots are white men. What do you do with those 86% of white male pilots?

The David Horowitz Freedom Center had led the way into investigating military wokeness as part of its Disloyal Military project which has generated two breakthrough pamphlets, Disloyal: How The Military Brass Is Betraying Our Country and How Obama And Biden Destroyed The Greatest Military The World Has Ever Seen.

Since Brown’s nomination became official, Shillman Journalism Fellow Daniel Greenfield has made a tour of podcasts and radio shows urging Senate members to challenge the nominee on these racist quotas.

The enjoyable 5:39 minute clip below depicts Senator Schmitt (R-MO) running a buzz saw through General Brown, and the General invidiously tap dancing all over his anatomical manhood.

At the Senate Armed Services Committee confirmation hearing, Senator Eric Schmitt challenged Brown by asking him point blank:

Do we have too many white officers in the Air Force?

When Brown tried to dodge the question while claiming that he just wanted the most qualified officers, Sen.  Schmitt cited the August memo that had been uncovered by the Front Page Magazine investigation.

Senator Schmitt challenged:

That answer is not consistent with your August 9th memo, that there should be a reduction of about 9% of the white officers.

That’s a reduction of 5,400.

5,400 too many white officers[?]

Brown argued that the numbers were fair because they were based on national “demographics.”

Senator Schmitt told Brown:

Your story about wanting to be the best pilot in the Air Force regardless of race, that is what the military is supposed to be. It’s this great meritocracy.

 

The senator from Missouri argued that under

Brown, however, the Air Force had lost its way.

 

Senator Schmitt was in the right and on a roll:

Somehow, some way we ended up in a place where

a general in the Air Force is advocating

for racial quotas. And I just think that’s wrong.

While the Senate Armed Services Committee has voted to move Brown’s nomination forward, it goes to the Senate where members will have the opportunity to take a stand against the proposed racial quotas for officers.

Final thoughts: Apparently Affirmative Action has given way to Affirmative Racism.

No doubt, President Trump will quickly undo this mess and General Brown will be forcibly retired at the rank of Lieutenant General or perhaps Major General. The question being, when was he last useful to the military?

Good riddance!
