A new report claims that members of the Navy are more focused on diversity training than on preparing to take on adversaries such as China.

At least one current officer and one recently departed sailor anonymously shared their concerns with investigators commissioned by Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) and Reps. Jim Banks (R-Ind.), Dan Crenshaw (R-Texas) and Mike Gallagher (R-Wis.).

“Sometimes I think we care more about whether we have enough diversity officers than if we’ll survive a fight with the Chinese navy,” said an active-duty Navy lieutenant.

“It’s criminal. They think my only value is as a black woman,” the lieutenant added. “But you cut our ship open with a missile and we’ll all bleed the same color.”

A recently retired “senior enlisted leader” told the investigators that “I guarantee you every unit in the Navy is up to speed on their diversity training. I’m sorry that I can’t say the same of their ship handling training.”

2. Well, if you can't trust anonymous sources, who can you trust?

I mean, these sources think these things. Therefore, they must be factual. Who can argue with that logic?

Need I say ?

5. These RW lawmakers are really trying hard to spin up dissent among the ranks.

The report ordered up by Cotton reminds me of when he wrote the ‘dissent’ letter to Iran about the nuclear deal.

Cotton loves inserting himself into situations to grandstand rather than help America. The present report reads like a cherry picked box of ripe disgruntlement ordered by a mutinous prick.

6. Anonymously shared with RWNJs?

Sure they did.
