Special Operations Command Hires Diversity and Inclusion Chief Who Posted Anti-Trump Memes

United States Special Operations Command (SOCOM) has hired as its first “chief of diversity and inclusion” a person who posted anti-Trump memes on his Facebook page, including one that compared the former president to Adolf Hitler.

After his hire was announced, some of Torres-Estrada’s apparent social media posts began circulating.

A Facebook account appearing to belong to Torres-Estrada posted on June 2, 2020: “Here I leave this and slowly retire (to continue working from home)…” along with a meme of then-President Donald Trump, holding up a bible in front of St. John’s Episcopal Church after Black Lives Matter protesters set fire to it, next to a photo of Hitler.

He more recently, on February 19, 2021, posted a meme critical of Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX).

Breitbart News reached out to a spokesman for SOCOM on Friday afternoon, asking, “Does SOCOM have a statement on why he was hired at SOCOM to be the diversity and inclusion chief when his posts could be seen as partisan, and concerning for members of the military and SOCOM community who supported Trump?”

The spokesman responded, “We are aware of the allegations and are looking into them now.”

Joe Kent, retired U.S. Army Special Forces chief warrant officer 3, who spent more than 20 years in special operations and completed 11 combat deployments, criticized Torres-Estrada’s posts.

“Looks like the new diversity officer loves celebrating diversity with those who agree with him. Here is what he thinks of the rest of us- Mr. Torres-Estrada was not placed in US Special Operations command by mistake,” Kent tweeted.

Kent added: “The left is not hiding the fact that they are in control & have the power to cleanse the ranks of those who do not submit "

$5 says he’s got a 11-year old boy chained-up in his basement.

I don’t know about that, but I will bet you $100 he has 11-year old boy porn on his computer.

Richard doesn’t sound very inclusive.

His first name is appropriate.

How about hiring a non-discrimination chief? A competence chief?

You’re so silly. Competency is a racist white male European concept.

Patriots - please do what you can to get him cancelled. But know that the PLA has already won the next round. We will need to rebuild our military once the enemies of the state are removed.

"They don’t expect to face down anyone...They expect to capitulate..."

Except they intend their new woke military to open fire on American patriots when ordered and they will.

He’s a commissar and not a single military officer will publicly resign in protest. RIP USA.
