President Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth promised on the campaign trail that they would declare war on woke generals who turned the greatest fighting force on the planet into a bunch of pronoun-confused social justice warriors. And I’m happy to announce they’ve delivered on that promise.
The president announced during commencement exercises at West Point that he has officially banned drag shows, critical race theory and transgenderism within the U.S. military.
“For at least two decades, political leaders from both parties have dragged our military into missions it was never — meant to be,” he said. “People would say, why are we doing this? Why are we wasting our time, money, and souls in some case?”
He then went down a laundry list of sins he attributed to prior presidents, including “abusing soldiers with absurd ideological experiments” and “nation-building crusades.”
“They subjected the Armed Forces to all manner of social projects and political causes while leaving our borders undefended and depleting our arsenals to fight other countries’ wars,” Trump said. “But under the Trump administration, those days are over.”

Earlier this year Hegseth announced a crackdown on wokeness within the Armed Forces.
“Everything starts and ends with warriors, from training to the battlefield,” Hegseth said at Special Operations Forces Week in Tampa. “We are leaving wokeness and weakness behind. No more pronouns. No more climate change obsession. No more emergency vaccine mandates. No more dudes in dresses, we’re done with that shit.”Trump reiterated that message during his address at West Point.
“The job of the U.S. Armed Forces is not to host drag shows, to transform foreign cultures, or to spread democracy to everybody around the world at the point of a gun,” he said. “The military’s job is to dominate any foe and annihilate any threat to America anywhere, anytime, in any place.”
Later in his remarks, Trump revisited the subject of “divisive and demeaning political training” of American servicemembers, and said there will be “no more critical race theory or transgender for everybody forced onto the brave men and women in uniform.”
The Armed Forces has returned to its original mission: to kill the enemy and blow things up.
