EXCLUSIVE: Biden DOD Sued After Stonewalling Records Request Into ‘Radical’ General’s Nomination
Story by Wallace White • 21h
A national security watchdog is suing the Department of Defense (DOD) for not turning over records pertaining to the promotion of a top Army general who has “advocated publicly” for embedding diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) into the military.
The Center to Advance Security In America (CASA) filed the lawsuit Wednesday with the Washington, D.C., district court, compelling DOD to release communications and other materials related to Ronald Clark, who was nominated in July for Commanding General at Fort Shafter, headquarters for the U.S. Army in the Pacific Ocean. Clark said DEI “was a goal” in the Army, while also praising renaming military bases that use confederate names as a “huge step forward.”
“Ronald Clark is someone who has advocated publicly for DEI programs in the military to be expanded and prioritized by leadership,” CASA Director James Fitzpatrick told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “CASA brings this lawsuit in order to bring transparency to the American public on the records and communications surrounding Clark’s selection for promotion to lead the Army’s largest Service Component Command.”
