Matthew Lohmeier, a former House Pressure commander, has been nominated to function undersecretary of the Air Pressure within the incoming Trump administration.
President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Lt. Col. Matthew Lohmeier, a former House Pressure commander, to function the following United States undersecretary of the Air Pressure.
“Matt is a former fighter pilot, and House Pressure Squadron Commander, who has devoted his life to serving our Nice Nation,” Trump stated in a Jan. 17 submit on Reality Social.
“They’ve expressed pleasure about, hopefully, a return to a easy sole deal with warfighting and never about politics and race discussions and political activist agendas,” Lohmeier advised the outlet on Nov. 17.
In saying Lohmeier’s nomination to function undersecretary of the Air Pressure, Trump stated he seems ahead to him working intently with Hegseth, who can be a critic of variety, fairness, and inclusion (DEI) and different progressive insurance policies within the navy.
“Matthew will work with the GREAT Secretary of Protection Nominee, Pete Hegseth, to finish the devastating ‘woke’ insurance policies which have destroyed our Army, and make our Nation STRONG AGAIN,” Trump wrote.
“I’m grateful to your belief, and am very a lot wanting ahead to persevering with my service to our nice women and men in uniform,” he wrote. “To all women and men with a need to serve your nation in uniform, come be part of us now! We would like the most effective, brightest, and strongest of you at this essential juncture in American historical past.”
“It’s not politically partisan to show Marxist ideology the place it exists and to speak about essential race concept; that needs to be one thing we’re unitedly standing in opposition to,” he stated on the time.
“We are going to stay patriotically apolitical and stridently constitutional,” he stated, including that each he and Trump need “a Pentagon laser-focused on lethality, meritocracy, warfighting, accountability, and readiness.”
