The post Trump Team Prepping 'Warrior Board' Executive Order in Bid to Purge Military of Wokeness: Report appeared first on The Western Journal.

The Trump team is considering a draft executive order that establishes a “warrior board” of retired senior military personnel *cough*Mike Flynn*cough* with the power to review three- and four-star officers and to recommend removals of any deemed unfit for leadership.
