Pentagon wants $114 million for diversity, equity, inclusion initiatives after failing sixth consecutive annual audit
[BLAZE] The Pentagon is requesting $114.7 million to fund "diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility" initiatives in fiscal year 2024 after the department failed its sixth consecutive annual audit this month.

The Defense Department's DEI spending has increased in recent years. In 2022, the department requested $68 million, and in 2023, $86.5 million, the Daily Wire reported. The DOD's latest DEI-related budget request marks the largest yet.

The Pentagon's Defense Budget Overview stated, "The FY 2024 President's Budget request demonstrates the DoD's commitment to DEIA and includes $114.7 million for dedicated diversity and inclusion activities."

It noted that the funds will be invested "in programs and initiatives aimed at furthering DEIA, and incorporating DEIA values, objectives, and considerations in how we do business and execute our missions."

#2 Wagner mercenaries are going to discover that their experiences in Africa, and against the mighty Ukrainian army, do NOT prepare them for conflict with IDF.

#4 do NOT prepare them for conflict with IDF.

They discovered the hard way that it did not prepare them for conflict with the US Army, which definitely suggests how conflict with the IDF would go.
