Lohmeier says he did consult with his superiors about how this critical race theory push was causing unnecessary divisions inside our Armed Forces, and says he also obtained counsel from a public affairs officer and base legal. So why fired? Why did this happen? Here to explain author of the new book, \u2018Irresistible Revolution,\u2019 Lieutenant Colonel Matthew Lohmeier, who is now by the way speaking in his personal capacity. Now his views, they don\u2019t necessarily reflect the official policy of the Department of Defense. Okay, tell us exactly what happened.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>MATTHEW LOHMEIER, EX-MILITARY OFFICER: Sean, I appreciate you having me on the show. And in fact, that statement that you just read that came from Air Force Public Affairs, I included in the front of my book three times. Once on the copyright page, once on the front matter, and again in the introduction to the book. What happened is I began noticing some time ago, and not just in the past few months, but over the past several years, in increasing relevance, of what I saw was Marxist ideology parading around by other names. The defense secretary in February, I think it was February 5th of this year, called for an extremism down day and they issued a guidance memorandum to all service members. And in the guidance memorandum, he basically gave an injunction to every service member to combat extremist ideologies within the force where they saw them, and to take it upon ourselves to protect one another and to speak up and educate one another about extremist ideologies, when we discovered them, causing divisions within the force. And that\u2019s me paraphrasing the guidance memorandum. And so I include that in the introduction to the book as well.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>HANNITY: Okay, so you would recognize the narratives as being Marxist in nature, your words, not mine. And also, you said it teaches intensive teaching that I heard at the base at a time that Constitution ratified the U.S. codified white supremacy as the law of the land. Are they not aware that we fought a civil war? That the Civil Rights Act Voting Rights Act, that Joe Biden\u2019s friend, by the way, and filibustered? Side note, while not perfect, we have made incredible strides have incredible more to go towards a more perfect union, is that not recognized at all?<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>LOHMEIER: I think it is recognized. And I think, you know, one of the things the Defense Department does very well is make it very clear that we\u2019ve got zero tolerance for discrimination of any kind, based on race, sex, politics, religion \u2026 and so that\u2019s the standard, right. And so to that end, I\u2019ve made that very clear to my own people, that in the light of a hyper-politicized environment that I\u2019ve seen, since taking command, and I\u2019m no longer in command, I will not tolerate any discrimination of any kind based on politics, for example. And so let me give you an example of what I saw in the past 10 months when I was in command of a unit. There were videos being sent out to every base service member that we were asked to watch in preparation for our extremism down days and discussions on race in which we were taught that the country was evil, that it was founded in 1619, and not 1776 and that whites are inherently evil. And so I speak up against those things in my book.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>HANNITY: I would think in the military, that you talk about a brotherhood and a bond that really is kind of unimaginable in real life because you all have each other\u2019s back on the battlefield.
