A judge ruled that the US Navy can keep racial preferences. Marxist DEI is alive and well in the Navy. Meritocracy is dead if this isn’t overturned.
Donald Trump and his Cabinet can’t get into office soon enough.
US Senior District Judge Richard D. Bennett of Maryland on Friday allowed the US Naval Academy to keep considering applicants’ race and ethnicity in its admission practices, calling the issue a matter of national security.
Usually, meritocracy is the best way to protect national security. We should have the best candidates in our Navy.
The group challenging DEI is Students for Fair Admissions.
Students for Fair Admissions had prevailed in similar challenges last year to Harvard and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. But the group’s effort to force a change at the Naval Academy, Bennett wrote, “has FAILED.”
They will appeal.
I don’t care what race our soldiers are as long as they are the best.
Newser wrote that the Supreme Court decision in the university cases excluded the military academies.
The government argued that national security depends on the academies’ ability to develop officers who reflect the demographic composition of the troops and the nation’s population overall, per the Times. The judge pointed to a 2024 Senate committee report saying underrepresentation of racial and ethnic minorities in the military service academies remains a problem. “This is fundamentally a military personnel issue,” Bennett said.
Legal Insurrection pointed out Justice Thomas’s concurrence that diversity is not a compelling interest justifying racial discrimination. “[J]ust as the alleged educational benefits of segregation were insufficient to justify racial discrimination [in the 1950s], see Brown v. Board of Education, the alleged educational benefits of diversity cannot justify racial discrimination today.”
The group will likely prevail at the Supreme Court.
Biden’s Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, the TOP military position in the USA, says we need to prioritize diversity for promotions, even if they need “additional training”.

The Navy can discriminate by skin color, but only when it benefits blacks. If they ever discriminated in favor of Whites, this same judge would rule against it. That’s liberals for you. When they are subjected to the same treatment that doesn’t benefit them, it suddenly becomes illegal. Hypocrites.
What a revolting development this is!
Skin color yes, sexual orientation no? WTF?
Hypersonic just don’t care, and their crappy management will get people killed. Black mafia has installed itself into military mgmt. If you’re white, get out. There it is, in a nutshell.

This judge KNOWS he will be overturned. He must be covering for someone buying time for them.
You could see the point back when they called it Affirmative Action. Back then there were disparities in the workforce. It is well known birds of a feather flock together. Managers hired people like themselves, a real good old boy system. I know because I was part of it.
But after 50 years of re-balancing the scales the left still wants these programs in place. Their whole ideology is based on making people victims instead of equals, despite what they say.
I always prefer the ways of old when monarchs of rival countries would intermarry. Nothing like blood ties to strengthen the bonds between peoples. This may not be popular to some but it is completely human.
However what Judge Bennett is doing is forcing ideology and mediocrity on those required to produce strength. He is neither qualified or chartered with telling the military how to make great soldiers. When it comes to the military, civilian judges need to do one thing, butt out!
Please provide a compelling argument why Caucasians should voluntarily join any branch of the US military now. Do not base your argument on emotional patriotism.
Bunch of lunatics and candy asses running the Navy.
What happened to lethal?
This is bad. Now the armed forces seek to be representatives of every diverse community. Hey morons, how about representing America. And the only ones elected to be representatives are robbing us to poverty.
The judge, will get their FAIR, 3 minute tribunal for their life. I do like their chance for aquittal.
China and Russia are rolling on the floor laughing.
If ever there is a war , they know it will be relatively easy to defeat the USA with its men in skirts and stiletto who claim they are women, and its diverse ( gay, non-white, identifies as a cat, as a goat etc etc ) but unskilled men.
Democrats are helping the enemies of the USA.
They’re all exempt from combat.
Tenche Cox, Pennsylvania delegate to the Continental Congress, twice
explained the purpose of the Second Amendment to his fellow citizens, first
writing in The Pennsylvania Gazette, on Feb. 20, 1788.
The militia of these free commonwealths, entitled and accustomed to their
arms, when compared with any possible army, must be tremendous and
irresistible. Who are the militia? Are they not ourselves? Is it feared,
then, that we shall turn our arms each man against his own bosom. Congress
have no power to disarm the militia. Their swords and every other terrible
implement of the soldier, are the birth-right of an American … the unlimited
power of the sword is not in the hands of either the federal or state
governments, but, where I trust in God it will ever remain, in the hands of the people.
He wrote again a year-and-a-half later:
As civil rulers, not having their duty to the people duly before them, may
attempt to tyrannize, and as the military forces which must be occasionally
raised to defend our country, might pervert their power to the injury of
their fellow-citizens, the people are confirmed by the next article in their right to keep and bear their private arms.
It’s gonna be a mess, not if, but when we get our a**es handed to us in the next large conflict….
