Van Jones: Brown Was Fired Due to ‘Slander that He’s Woke and DEI’, He Just Had Policies to Make Diverse Military ‘Cohesive’
Breitbart ^ | 02/22/2025 | Ian hatchett

On Friday’s broadcast of CNN’s “Laura Coates Live,” CNN Political Commentator and former Obama Adviser Van Jones said that the only reason he can find to dismiss Gen. CQ Brown as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is “this slander that he’s woke and DEI. Well, if you are the head of a military that is multiracial and multicultural and you want it to be cohesive, you need to have policies in place to help that happen.”

CQ the arrogant Air Force General got fired because he was full of himself, rude, and not willing to follow the orders of his commander in chief because he thought he knew better.

You make it more cohesive by eliminating recognizing races or genders, not enhancing it. Soldiers are cogs and nothing more.

The military’s attitude towards the ill-educated, rude, and quite objectionable DEI clown crowd is “kick their *sses out”. Note, it is not directed at the minorities that are actually REAL soldiers and airmen who are serving honorably. We’ll leave it to history to record which side this ...uh...general was on.

Ft Jackson 1973. We were one color; OD Green. We had one culture; Army. Cohesive? Yeah, survive and make sure your battle brothers survived. The first leader was the Squad Leader and at first he was chosen because he was the tallest. If he didn’t do his job there was a squad member who would be moved up so it was Meritocracy from early on.

When I was in law school, I learned that slander required the statement to be false. Truth was always am affirmative defense. Note that slander is a falsehood that is spoken and libel is a falsehood that is written.

My memory of Charlie Brown’s statements about himself is that he admitted to being DEI and Woke. So, I ask, Mr Jones (Vance), where is the falsehood that gives rise to slander? Maybe it is the falsehood you just propagated by claiming slander by others? That is clearly false.

Or, Brown (AF) Franchetti (Navy), and Fagan (USCG) had their bets down on the Preakness.

Only respond if you get the reference.
