Warfighting • Lethality • Meritocracy • Accountability • Readiness

 

Hello STARRS,


Since July 2020, STARRS has tracked, monitored and exposed the Marxist CRT/DEI woke agenda in the US military and our nation's service academies in order to show the danger of this ideology and how it negatively affects recruitment, retention, morale and readiness. We also worked on the C19 vax mandate issue pertaining to service members. Our purpose is education and awareness for an informed citizenry. Now we are tracking the fight to eliminate the divisive CRT/DEI ideology from the military and a return to merit and common sense.

Senate Hearing

Matt Lohmeier, STARRS Executive Vice President (currently inactive due to working on his nomination to be the Under Secretary of the Air Force) finally had his hearing in front of the Senate Armed Services Committee on May 1. STARRS was there and besides the fact most Senators only showed up when they were scheduled to speak for their soundbite then left right after, there was typical nasty partisanship from one side, but Matt stood his ground (and took the flak away from the other two nominees). A number of supporters were there and took a group photo with Matt and his wife Sara afterwards:

Now is the wait for the Senate to vote, which they haven't even done yet for the nominee to be Secretary of the Air Force, whose hearing was on March 27--preventing the Secretary of Defense from having his team in place.
