It is exceedingly rare that a one-star list draws such intense scrutiny from a #SecDef. The battle highlights the bitter rifts opened by Hegseth’s campaign to reverse policies that he says are prejudiced against #white officers 🙄.

#Hegseth has said repeatedly that he is determined to change a culture corrupted by “foolish,” “reckless” & “woke” leaders from previous admins. [#GreatReplacementTheory]

#US #Defense Secy #PeteHegseth is blocking the promotion of 4 #Army officers to be one-star generals, a highly unusual move that has prompted some senior #military officials to question whether the officers are being singled out because of their #race or #gender.

2 of the officers targeted by #Hegseth are Black & 2 are women on a promotion list that consists of about 3 dozen officers, most of whom are #white #men, snr military ofcls said.

Paul Weiss & 2 other #LawFirms named by the #FTC on Friday — Skadden Arps & Latham & Watkins — reached deals with the White House to void or sidestep such orders, pledging millions of dollars in free #legal work to mutually-supported causes with the #Trump admin.

The FTC's list also includes WilmerHale & Perkins Coie, which filed successful lawsuits challenging Trump's executive orders last year as #unconstitutional.

The #Trump admin has eliminated DEI-related programs in the government. Several private firms have also rolled back such initiatives.

The #FTC letters were addressed to many of the country's largest & most profitable firms. 3 of them — Paul Weiss, WilmerHale & Perkins Coie — were targeted last year by Trump executive orders that threatened their business practices, citing in part their allegedly discriminatory hiring practices.

#Trump added: “I think it was also, at the same time, it accomplished some very wonderful things, but it also hurt a lot of people—people that ✴︎deserve✴︎ to go to a college or ✴︎deserve✴︎ to get a job were unable to get a job. So it was, it was a reverse discrimination.”

“White people were very badly treated, where they did extremely well & they were not invited to go into a university to college,” #Trump said, an apparent reference to #AffirmativeAction in college admissions. “So I would say in that way, I think it was unfair in certain cases.”
