(SOCOM announced his selection the same week it unveiled a diversity and inclusion plan with a vision to not only recruit more women and people of color, but to retain them and support them with the goal of diversifying the special operations community’s leadership.)
Richard Torres-Estrada, the first-ever chief diversity and inclusion officer for the U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM), has been allowed to return to his duties this week after being investigated over past social media posts, including one comparing then-President Donald Trump to Hitler.
“Mr. Torres-Estrada has resumed the duties of the Chief of Diversity & Inclusion for United States Special Operations Command after a USSOCOM commander-directed investigation into the circumstances surrounding his hiring concluded and found no violations of law or DoD regulation,” SOCOM spokesman Ken McGraw told Military Times on Thursday.
SOCOM announced Torres-Estrada’s hiring for the new command role in a March tweet. Within hours of the announcement, social media users began taking note of his past social media posts.
In a June 2020 Facebook post, Torres-Estrada shared a digitally-altered photo of Hitler holding a bible at a rally in Nazi Germany, next to a photo of Trump holding a bible outside the St. John’s Episcopal Church in Washington D.C., which rioters set fire to last summer.

His Trump/Hitler comment was made before he was hired so all is well apparently.
Cancel culture doesn't apply to perverts.
Defund the DOD.
Ah yes - he’s a perfect communist political officer.
I must have missed Donald Trump starting a war that cost 10’s of millions of lives. Meanwhile obama and Biden started several with over a million dead in Syria and Libya and they support the muslim brotherhood who was aligned with Hitler in WW2.
great example of the marxist takeover .
Trump never cleaned up the military that Obama created .
So naive .
THAT is the head of the SOCOM?????? We’re fekked big time.
The sorry bastards do this to rub our noses in it.
Remember. Remember well. It will make what is coming worth it.
This fool has no place in the US military. He needs to be transferred to the Chinese or Russian militaries.
comparing then-President Donald Trump to Hitler>>>>>
The left hate The Donald badly.
He is a threat to their Unconstitutional Socialist Utopia.
And so we must bring the win again for America First, and post guys like this to North Alaska.
Or even better the SOG lads can take him along on an op. He won’t return.
Yep. He’s just the sort of ahole that the RATs want in the govt.
His mother is just the super greatest special woman in his life, bar none. He loves to trade recipes with friends instead of that messy old fishing. He took the community college night class in flowers and their arrangement. And he adores Judy Garland.
If that's anything to go on.
Good thing he didn’t say anything bad about Biden.
I bet my Special Ops Assoc pals cannot believe this punk is even in the army. Every man I knew in SF despised Fags.
Definitely a fruity bastard.
Because every duty bound man knows how homosexuals rip at the fabric of stability and order.
I’ll tell you what, I’ll compare Donald Trump to Hitler. Donald Trump is nothing at all like Hitler. I can’t say that for the hyperbolic lying fool by the name of Richard Torres-Estrada.
Now fagottry is a required MOS, or at last a familiarization training course !
Welcome to Brave New World .... but with a twist !
The son-of-a-bitch is no good.
SOCOM includes the Navy SEALS, Army Special Forces, Army Rangers and other Special OP warriors.
This is pure insanity, but not unexpected with this evil regime.
