Pentagon Gets Diversity Watchdog in Bill Passed Over Trump Veto

Defense legislation passed in spite of President Donald Trump’s veto will bring a heightened focus on diversity issues and efforts to combat white supremacy and extremist behavior within the U.S. military.

Along with billions of dollars for new weapons systems and a pay raise for troops, a new deputy inspector general’s position was created by the bipartisan defense authorization bill to carry out audits, investigations, and evaluations of military personnel policies, programs, and systems to ensure they address diversity priorities.

The new watchdog will also have a key role in responding to white supremacist and criminal gang activity by military personnel, according to the legislation passed on Jan. 1 over Trump’s veto.

Is that going to be something like Russia's "political officers" with a chain of command around COs and reporting directly to the WH?  If it doesn't start out that way, it will morph that way before long.

Republicans are useless, at least finally Trump got them to take off their masks and show who they really are.

We have got to learn to not use personal pronouns that identify gender since Nazi Pelosi has banned them in the house.
