Earlier this month, Townhall reported on the plight of Space Force Lt. Col. Matthew Lohmeier, who was relieved of his duties for criticizing Marxism and how he feared it was coming to the military. People are taking notice and sticking up for Lohmeier, including Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) and Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR). Both of them have served, Crenshaw as a Navy SEAL and Cotton as an Army Captain.
The military was aware of Lohmeier s self-published book, Irresistible Revolution: Marxism’s Goal of Conquest and the Unmaking of the American Military. That he promoted and expanded upon its ideas during a podcast, though, was enough for his superiors to be concerned that his criticisms constituted prohibited partisan political activity.
