Desperate to deflect attention from accusations that he sexually trafficked underage girls for his own perverted pleasure, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) attempted to pick a fight with Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin by accusing the U.S. military of using “critical race theory” to the detriment of American national security.
Declaring that critical race theory is the “number one concern” of military officers, Gaetz then told Secretary Austin:
“I’ve heard those sentiments most frequently from units that are majority-minority. How should the Department of Defense think about critical race theory?”
Clearly agitated by such an absurd question, the defense secretary responded:
“I don’t know what the issue of critical race theory is. We do not teach critical race theory. We don’t embrace critical race theory. And I think that’s a spurious conversation. We are focused on extremist behaviors and not ideology, not people’s thoughts, not people’s political orientation.”
Austin then continued his verbal destruction of the Florida congressman by telling him:
“And thanks for your anecdotal input. But I would say that I’ve gotten ten times that amount of input — 50 times that amount of input on the other side that has said, ‘We’re glad to have had the ability to have a conversation without ourselves and our leadership.'”
Gaetz then dared to interrupt the defense chief:
“It may be that you’re receiving that input in the ratios you describe because it was your directive. It may be people are concerned about criticizing your decision.”
The Florida Republican also accused the defense secretary of “hiring a critical race theorist” as an adviser, which drew this response from Austin:
“This is the first I’ve ever heard [Bishop Garrison] being described as a critical race theorist. Let me just share one thing you brought up, Congressman, about the input that comes to me. I trust my leadership from top to bottom that they will give me fair and balanced and unvarnished input.
“And for you to say people are telling me what I want to hear, I get it. You know, maybe they are telling you what you want to hear.”
Matt Gaetz is a whiny little punk who allegedly enjoys sleeping with children. He belongs in prison and will likely be there very soon. Maybe when he gets there, he can discuss his fascination with critical race theory with his cellmate.
