Pentagon Hiding DEI Evidence
The Pentagon is reportedly working to remove and archive evidence of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives as the incoming Trump administration prepares to replace senior military leaders linked to such policies. Sources describe a “scramble” to erase DEI-related materials from official websites in anticipation of Trump’s plans to refocus the military on combat readiness.
According to insiders, DEI-related pages are being quietly archived or deleted. “They’re fully focused on cleaning up anything DEI-related,” one Breitbart source said. Many officers are reportedly in “panic mode,” trying to determine if they are on the list of those to be replaced.
Just FYI to Pentagon and @DeptofDefense officials… we already mapped out DEI programs in DOD, and chronicled the senior officers promoting it and defending it. All of that information will be provided to the incoming administration. https://t.co/9OPY8fcPZy pic.twitter.com/VaibA9Yxwp

A draft executive order is said to be in final stages, aiming to establish a panel to recommend the removal of officers who prioritized DEI over military readiness. The order reportedly has full support from Trump’s team and is expected to be finalized soon.
Retired military whistleblowers, including Lt. Col. Pete “Doc” Chambers and Chief Warrant Officer 2 Samuel Shoemate, are assisting the transition team in identifying DEI proponents. Shoemate stated they are focusing on leaders who actively pushed DEI policies or retaliated against troops during the COVID mandate, with over a dozen Navy officers already identified.

Incoming SecDef Pete Hegseth has made it his life mission to redirect the military’s focus toward national defense and combat preparedness, away from ideological priorities like DEI and other “woke” policies. High-profile figures, including Gen. Charles “CQ” Brown, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, are reportedly among the potential targets.
“This is about restoring military leadership to focus on protecting the country and preparing for conflict—not on ideological agendas,” another Breitbart source familiar with the plan said.
As efforts to erase DEI evidence continue, the Pentagon faces growing pressure from Trump’s incoming administration to reorient its leadership.
