Department of Defense scrubbing non-white Medal of Honor awardees from website

[schism666]

this regime sucks

So who got scrubbed from the DOD website today for not being 'white enough' to pass muster before the eyes of alcoholic Secretary of Defense "Tiny" Peter Hegseth today?

Major league Hall of Famer Jackie Robinson, come on down, boy!

Hegseth likely had some intense personal animosity towards Robinson, who before he (Robinson) became the first Negro ever to be selected to the Baseball Hall of Fame, he became briefly famous for a court martial case as a young lieutenant in the Armor corps of the United States Army.

In a nutshell, Robinson took a bus trip to a military hospital on a military bus to get the results of an injured ankle. He sat next to the mixed race wife of a fellow black officer he knew and they talked. The racist peckerwood contract bus driver took offense to Robinson talking to a "white' woman and told him to get to the back of the bus, even though the bus was designated "unsegregated' by contract to avoid these sort of racial incidents). Robinson declined. The bus driver radioed the hospital and asked for MP help to restrain a "drunken n-word" (Robinson was famously diabetic and never drank alcohol his entire life). Robinson was arrested. His white commanding officer, a Captain named Bear, was irate with Robinson, asking him why didn't as he was told, you stoopid n-word. Robinson replied "Don't call me that word, you son of a bitch!" Instant insubordination charges, failure to respect a sooperior officer. Drunken n-word charges were dropped, but Robinson faced court martial. He went to trial before a jury of nine officers (8 white, 1 black) and was acquitted 6-3. (They made a movie about this).

'Tiny' Peter Hegseth was ridiculed for almost 24 hours by commentators on the ESPN sports commentary shows and agreed to restore Robinson's profile in the face of the ensuing public shitstorm and "bad optics"

This is how you back down racist bullies.

Racism is like Measles, etc: You have to stomp it out as completely as possible and then keep inoculating against it so it doesn’t flare up again.

Racist MAGAts = Measles, etc.



Education = Inoculation.

Jackie Robinson's Army history scrubbed from Department of Defense websites

An article about the baseball great Jackie Robinson's time in the Army has been removed from the Department of Defense's website.

The new webpage URL, now adding "dei" to the link, shows a "404 - Page Not Found" error, implying the change is connected to President Donald Trump's executive order on DEI.

Again, not a peep from any of the board's avowed racists. Maybe even they realize how fucked this is.

The hits just keep on coming...

Today's DOD DEI casualty is Marine PFC Ira Hayes, a Pima Indian, one of seven men who raised the flag over Iwo Jima in the most iconic photo of World War Two.

• Hayes was immortalized in the Johnny Cash song 'The Ballad of Ira Hayes'.
• Hayes was portrayed by actor Tony Curtis in the 1961 film The Outsider
• He was also portrayed by actor Lee Marvin in the 1960 TV movie The Story of Ira Hayes
• Hayes portrayed himself in the 1949 John Wayne movie 'The Sands of Iwo Jima". Hayes and the other two Marines who survived World War 2 after raising the flag portrayed themselves.

Then you really can't say the old soldier is being deprived of publicity here.

Jackie Robinson's Army history scrubbed from Department of Defense websites

The new webpage URL, now adding "dei" to the link, shows a "404 - Page Not Found" error, implying the change is connected to President Donald Trump's executive order on DEI.

Not the first time, by the way, that Robinson has collided with racism in the Armed Forces:

Born in Cairo, Georgia, Robinson was raised in Pasadena, California. A four-sport student athlete at Pasadena Junior College and the University of California, Los Angeles, he was better known for football than he was for baseball, becoming a star college player with the UCLA Bruins football team. Following his college career, Robinson was drafted for service during World War II but was court-martialed for refusing to sit at the back of a segregated Army bus, eventually being honorably discharged. Afterwards, he signed with the Kansas City Monarchs of the Negro leagues, where he caught the eye of Branch Rickey, general manager of the Brooklyn Dodgers, who thought he would be the perfect candidate for breaking the color line in MLB.

Another day, another "disappearance". Today, the Dept of Defense removed yet another "DEI page" that failed to give credit to white males.

Today's victims were the Navajo Code Talkers of World War Two fame. These were members of the Meskwaki tribe who confounded Japanese interpreters in World War Two. All content with the keyword 'Meskwaki' has been removed from the DOD site.

Asked for a comment, Pentagon press secretary John Ullyot replied "As Secretary [Pete] Hegseth has said, DEI is dead at the Defense Department."

Makin' the military white again!

Well...well...well

No outrage-du-jour today (note to Derpy: "outrage-du-jour" means 'outrage of the day') BUT

Tone-deaf Pentagon press secretary John Ullyot repeated he same boilerplate "fuck you and the horse you rode in on" verbiage above when asked about Jackie Robinson yesterday. This rote recital did not sit well with the gaggle of both news and sports reporters.

Tonight it was announced that suddenly-radioactive John Ullyot was 'stepping down' from his bully pulpit as press secretary for the Dept of Defense to work on 'special projects'. Alcoholic former Fox News weekend anchor and current Secretary of Defense 'Tiny' Peter Hegseth announced that former drinking buddy and failed Pennsylvania congressional candidate Sean Parnell (NOT the former Alaska governor....different guy) would take over.

Sean Parnell, a combat veteran, was once considered a favorite to win a Congressional seat in Pennsylvania until leaked court documents about his messy divorce proceedings provided horrific details of how he beat his young children to the point where he is now forbidden to have unsupervised custody visits with them until they turn 18.

By decree of Orange Julius Caesar, alcoholic former Fox News Weekend Anchor and current Secretary of Defense "Tiny" Peter Hegseth has had the Department of Defense scrubbing all pictures and articles of non-white and/or non-male service members.

The latest victim of this "whitewash' effort was Medal of Honor winner Major General Charles C. Rogers, who was awarded the Medal of Honor by President Richard Nixon in 1970 for bravery in combat in Vietnam. The DOD spotlights a different Medal of Honor awardee each week, Major General Rogers' heroism was featured in 2021 on the DOD website.

The spotlight page AND Major General Rogers' Medal of Honor citation have now been removed from the DOD website.

The URL to Rogers' biography and citation was altered from https;//www.defense.gov/News/Feature-Stories/Story/Article/2824721/medal-of-honor-monday-army-maj-gen-charles-calvin-rogers/ to https;//www.defense.gov/News/Feature-Stories/Story/Article/2824721/DEImedal-of-honor-monday-army-maj-gen-charles-calvin-rogers/

Hegseth has been highly critical of American failure to achieve "unconditional victory" in Vietnam, which he has blamed on the American military having integrated the Army in 1948. He has pointed out in the past that many prominent front-line combat positions, often sought by conservative white men, were routinely given to far less qualified black and Hispanic enlistees. This resulted in the "DEI movement' that grew and existed until the inauguration of President Donald J. Trump.

It is unclear if President Trump will revoke Rogers' Medal of Honor or downgrade it to something more appropriate to Rogers' race. Rogers passed away in 1990. If President Trump does downgrade/revoke MG Rogers' Medal of Honor, Elon Musk's DOGE savings commission could, in theory, seek financial restitution from Rogers estate (for the monetary amount difference between a Medal of Honor funeral service and a basic military funeral service).

That was done by "accident" according to the DOD, and the General's page is back online. This was probably done by some leftist in the DOD who wanted to make the SecDef's anti-DEL instructions look bad. Something you would have done, no doubt.

There are no leftists in the DOD. There never were.

Is false-flag going to be your excuse for everything this administration does?!

Bullshit, Obama and Biden salted them throughout the DOD bureaucracy.

So were all the other "scrubs"accidental too? Are they now back on the web site?

It's racist as hell to list accomplishments of people of colour on the same page as accomplishments by white people.

It was "done by accident".

Nothing to see here, move along. The same as sending military secrets 'by accident' to a journalist, and including another member on the group who just happened to be in Moscow meeting with Putin.

It was OK, it was an "accident".

That is a lie. Obama and Biden are themselves by no means leftists.
