After threatening to sever ties with Scouting America and kick the youth group off military bases worldwide, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Friday gave a six-month reprieve to the organization formerly known as the Boy Scouts of America.
Hegseth made the announcement in a video posted to X, framing it as an ultimatum to Scouting to conform to the Trump administration’s anti-DEI agenda. He detailed his many criticisms of the group, saying Scouts had “lost their way” by changing the organization’s name and “watering down” what he called “the focus on God as the ruler of the universe.”
He accused the Scouts of promoting “an insidious, radical, woke ideology that is anti-America and anti-American.”
This is a deadly serious country. As in, they will kill you if you fail to live by their hate-filled ideology.
Yep. These people squealed and continue to squeal about things like “political correctness”. It turns out they want everyone to bow to THEIR political correctness.
This is something that was glaringly obvious even back in the 90s when they first started Karening out over everything that was “PC”.
One other note - I’ve been reminded of this scene so many times in my lifetime. It’s probably one of the most true things said about American culture. Even if so many wingers and reactionary centrists have taken issue with me pointing them at this scene. Jack’s character really sees America here.
