About this episode
Trump fires top Black general and installs unqualified loyalists to key positions. The end of DEI and the myth of meritocracy.
Four-Star General CQ Brown Jr. was the top military officer, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, until he was fired last Friday by president Trump via a social media post. Apparently Brown was too “woke” for the Trump admin–and he just so happens to be Black.
THREE-Star LIEUTENANT General Dan Caine has been promoted as Brown’s replacement. Now, why is a less qualified (and retired) general being tapped to replace General Brown in this prestigious position? It couldn’t have anything to do with the fact that he’s white, could it?
Using examples, like the recent promotion of MAGA podcaster Dan Bongino, Angela Rye exposes the hypocrisy of MAGA when they promote the end of DEI as the return of “meritocracy.” There will be serious consequences to promoting unqualified individuals to positions of power.
