Summary

The Trump administration fired Vice Adm. Shoshana Chatfield, the only woman on NATO’s military committee, reportedly due to past statements supporting diversity.

Chatfield, a decorated Navy pilot and Afghanistan veteran, appeared on a conservative “woke” watchlist targeting senior military officials who promoted DEI.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, leading the anti-DEI campaign, made the call, though it’s unclear if Trump directly ordered it.

Chatfield is the third top female officer dismissed under Trump. Critics warned the firings undermine military leadership and damage U.S. alliances.

    During covid antivax groups were calling the vaxed groups “sheep”, referring to them as “asleep”.

    The ven diagram between MAGA and antivax groups is probably a cirlce. I don’t get it, do these people want people awake or asleep?
