Jim Banks (R-IN), ranking member\u00a0of the House Armed Services subcommittee on cyber, innovative technologies and information systems, said in a statement to Breitbart News:<\/p>\n<p>At the same time the President is recklessly warning of nuclear war, Joe Biden\u2019s National Security Strategy is focused on \u2018promoting diversity and inclusion\u2019 and claims \u2018climate change is the greatest\u2019 shared threat to the world. Biden\u2019s wokeness is America\u2019s weakness.<\/p>\n<p>The prominence of Critical Race Theory within the NSS was particularly unusual, since the strategy documents typically focus on national security challenges, but the Biden administration suggested that \u201cstrengthening our democracy\u201d was a national security imperative.<\/p>\n<p class=\"a8d-pre\">\u201cOur democracy is a work in progress\u2014and by reckoning with and remedying our own shortcomings, we can inspire others around the world to do the same,\u201d it said, before calling for election reform \u2014 a key Democratic Party agenda item \u2014 and \u201cpluralism, inclusion, and diversity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It said:<\/p>\n<p>As Americans, we must all agree that the people\u2019s verdict, as expressed in elections, must be respected and protected. \u2026 This is why we have taken executive action and urged essential legislation to protect and promote voting rights and expand democratic participation, and why we are building on the work of generations of activists to advance equity and root out systemic disparities in our laws, policies, and institutions. Indeed, pluralism, inclusion, and diversity are a source of national strength in a rapidly changing world. We are reaffirming the rights to free speech, a free press, peaceful assembly, and other core civil liberties.<\/p>\n<p>The NSS also called for \u201cdiversity and inclusion\u201d in the U.S. military.<\/p>\n<p>Under the section \u201cModernizing and Strengthening Our Military,\u201d the NSS said, \u201cWe will strengthen the effectiveness of the force by promoting diversity and inclusion,\u201d ahead of suicide prevention efforts, and eliminating sexual assault and harassment \u2014 two major problems plaguing the military. It also called for \u201crooting out violent extremism,\u201d even though the Department of Defense\u2019s own study in December found fewer than 100 cases of \u201cextremism\u201d over the past year.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The Biden administration&#8217;s National Security Strategy not only cites the promotion of &#8220;diversity and inclusion&#8221; in our military, but before suicide prevention efforts! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/0nNlqJx9Xd\">pic.twitter.com\/0nNlqJx9Xd<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Kristina Wong \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8 (@kristina_wong) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/kristina_wong\/status\/1580697997666832392?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 13, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"a8d-pre\">Indeed, the NSS uses the exact phrase \u201cdiversity, equity, inclusion\u201d when discussing \u201cthe national security workforce.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe success of these efforts and our foreign policy will require strengthening the national security workforce by recruiting and retaining diverse, high-caliber<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Biden administration\u2019s National Security Strategy \u2014 a document that typically outlines a new administration\u2019s foreign policy guiding principles, goals, and aspirations \u2014 touted the importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion, or DEI \u2014 a term encapsulating programs and trainings based on Critical Race Theory, which has its roots in Marxism.
