Special Operations Command ‘Not Aware’ of Top Hire’s Anti-Trump Posts

U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) did not know that a newly hired officer had compared former President Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler and expressed support for the quasi-Marxist equity theory, a spokesperson said on Saturday.
USSOCOM on Thursday announced the hiring of Richard Torres-Estrada as its chief of diversity and inclusion.
Torres-Estrada last year compared Trump, who was president at the time, with Hitler, who perpetrated the Holocaust, killing millions of Jews in Europe. He also made at least one other clear anti-Trump post, according to Facebook posts reviewed by The Epoch Times. In addition, Torres-Estrada posted an image expressing support for the radical theory of equity, which posits that an equal outcome among people is favorable to certain persons getting ahead of others.
The ideology has been introduced across the federal government by President Joe Biden despite deep concerns that it fosters racism.
Ken McGraw, a USSOCOM public affairs officer, told The Epoch Times on Saturday that special operations command “was not aware of the posts” when it hired Torres-Estrada.
“Now that we are aware of the situation we are looking into it,” he added.
Torres-Estrada didn’t respond to a Facebook message.
He has previously worked as an equal employment officer at the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority and directed the Virginia Department of Human Resource Management’s Office of Equity, Diversity & Inclusion, among other posts.
The official was targeted by Fox News host Tucker Carlson on Friday for his radical social media posts.
“Who exactly is Richard Torres-Estrada? His Facebook page gives us some indication of who he is. On it, you’ll find an attack on the police, you’ll find crude BLM propaganda, you’ll find a picture of Donald Trump holding a Bible in front of a church. Next to Trump is a photograph of Adolf Hitler. The point is, they’re the same. So, this is the guy who now oversees hiring for the SEALs,” Carlson said during his show.
“If you’re wondering whether our military leadership has gone woke, consider that question settled for good. The Pentagon is now the Yale faculty lounge, but with cruise missiles. That should concern you,” he added.

They know and knew he was a racist hack it is why he was hired. They will still hire him and all military will be essentially commanded by his racist pamphlets.

Did they even have any say in hiring him or were they told to hire him, i.e appointed?

Equity = marxism
They're just afraid to say it.

So...people running a major national security office can't vet people as well as a bunch of Falun Gong weirdos?

This guy should be sent to the brig/prison and banned from twitter for life for posting a photoshopped picture
Hitler never held a Bible up
Reuters News: Fact check: Image of Hitler holding the Bible is photoshopped
VERDICT
False. A photo used to compare Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler has been digitally altered to include a Bible.

I wonder if Biden's military will be made aware of this?

Why does SOCCOM have an office of diversity? Either you make the Spec Ops teams or you don't. If you can pass BUD/s or Green Beret training, the military will take you no matter what color you are.

They'll "fire" him by promoting him to a different department.
