Biden Pentagon Official Removed After Comparing Trump to Hitler
Bill Sheridan
So much for the party of peace, love, and tolerance. The Pentagon’s newly appointed diversity chief has been removed from his post and “reassigned” amid an investigation into hate-filled social media posts that included comparing former President Trump to Adolph Hitler, a U.S. defense official has confirmed to Fox News on Tuesday.
The U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM) has been investigating the social media activity of Richard Torres-Estrada, days after he was announced as their new head of diversity and inclusion.
A spokesman said Torres-Estrada has not been fired but rather “assigned to other duties pending the results of the investigation.”
“The Commander has directed an investigation to look into the facts surrounding Mr. Torres-Estrada’s selection,” said Ken McGraw, a spokesman for the US Special Operations Command. “It would be inappropriate to comment on specifics until the evaluation is complete.”
Meanwhile, pentagon press secretary John Kirby confirmed the existence of the investigation during a recent press briefing in response to a question about Torres-Estrada’s past posts.
One of the questionable social media posts juxtaposed a picture of Trump holding a Bible next to an image of Hitler. Kirby stated that SOCOM head Gen. Richard Clarke is looking into the matter and that Clarke has the support of Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin.
“Obviously, we take the need to promote diversity and inclusion seriously here in the department,” Kirby said. “The secretary has spoken to that many times. And we certainly want that work to be transparent, to be credible, to be effective, and of course professional.”
Kirby declined to provide details of the probe, stating, “We want everybody to take those duties and responsibilities seriously and professionally, but I’m not going to get ahead of the Special Operations Command’s investigation.”
SOCOM had only just announced Torres-Estrada’s appointment on Mar. 25.
Torres-Estrada’s Facebook account is currently blocked from public view, but it was still viewable in time for Fox News’ Tucker Carlson to include images of some of his offensive posts during his show on Friday.
The White House has not commented on the posts or Torres-Estrada’s reassignment.
If Trump was like Hitler there would be no BLM, antifa, etc etc.
Reassigned? Are you effin’ kidding me? Why can’t you grow a pair of balls and FIRE their ass!!! Heaven forbit that was said against Biden or Obama during the real President’s term in office!
These are despicable creatures, not worth the powder to blow them to hell! I they even realized the depth of Hitler’s evil, they might realize that likening anyone to him is beneath contempt. To liken a former President of the United States to this animal this ignorant has absolutely no business holding any kind of position in the United States government.
There are certainly a lot of govt. officials and media and talk show hosts that have used the name Hitler in reference to Trump, so why are they not called out pertaining to this. NO ONE IS ABOVE REPROACH!!
Lmao,the entire Biden cartel thinks this way and worse. What dastardly hypocrites. They hate americans even more. Harris hayes every middle class white person.. warnock and his racist butt buds,wants every white person dead, his rhetoric of genocide got him elected. aoc and her gang also , read the quaran, that says it all as too their goal of genocide
AND YOU ARE SPOT ON! AND THE MAIN GOAL IS TO DESTROY AMERICA & ATTACKS ARE PLANNED FROM OTHER COUNTRIES FOR OUR WEAKNESS BECAUSE NOBODY HAS THE BALL TO STAND ,DEFEND & DELETE FROM THEIR PEDALSTOOLS! IF YOU KNOW THE BIBLE OF THE ET,,THAT’S WHERE WE ARE & ALL IS FALLING INTO PLACE AS IT SAYS. SADLY
I smell a cover up coming. Just fire him and quit wasteing money to defend his actions.
What an oxymoron! A prejudiced diversity director? Seriously? How much more comic can this administration possibly get? I cannot believe they are unable to see how stupid they appear, not only to the American people but to the world. Our next election cannot get here fast enough.
Nasty bullies, dopy dem libs….
God almighty–I wish conservatives knew how to SPELL and construct grammatically-correct sentences. Your ideas are fabulous and spot-on, but NONE of you know how to spell or use proper grammar and punctuation, it seems. So, to the point: it is indeed a miracle that ANYONE in this fetid “administration” would even have the guts to fire this racist, Communist imbecile. Maybe there IS hope to turn this country around, after all. Don’t lose hope, patriots!
You are not the grammar police!!!!
You can’t get fired from a government post. They just reassign you to another area with pay or a raise. Accountability is non existent unless you are a Trump supporter, christian, gun owner, a constitutionalist, or just plan American.
Peter principal is a standard structure in the government now. Our nation is going to be laid to waste by these fools.
It’s the democrat gov following hitleristic ways, not Trump
EXACTLY, they should look in the mirror.
It is a cancer. A typpical condition in our government. Get in trouble…..get ”reassigned” to another venue to spread your filth. NEVER Fired just given another do-nothing job to sit and, eventually receive a promotion, more money and finally a pension to live off the Taxpayer they have no trouble disparaging and looking down on. Sleep with a Chinese spy,; if you’re a democrat protected and assigned a post in the Foreign Relations Committee. If you sexually harass the women in your employ, nothing to see here democrat absolution. The world is upside down.
GET RID OF “ALL” THESE AZZHOLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I guess HISTORY was not the Democrat’s best subject in school, because more and more of what they are doing is straight out of Hitler’s playbook.
Another leftist moron who is not capable of his position. Way to go, senile Joe, you really know how to pick ’em, or is the democratic bench so weak this is the best you can do? This communist a$$hole shouldn’t be reassigned anywhere. He needs to be fired, PERIOD! And while you’re at it, arrest pinhead Kerry immediately and try him for TREASON! Throughout Trump’s great America First administration, coward Kerry met with Iran several times trying to undermine the Trump administration! This is TREASON!!! If it were a Republican he would be gone already. Firing squad or hanging, doesn’t matter to me. Just take him out. His third strike and the one he should hung for was telling Iran that at least 200 times Israel had targeted Iranian troops. He told the world’s number one sponsor of terror what, according to Kerry, who has always been a liar, Isreal had done to Iranian troops. IS THIS NOT TREASON EXHIBIT NUMBER ONE? Republicans, get him under oath ASAP. He has always been a traitor, in Viet Nam, and now with Iran. His time is up!
