Pentagon officials have held multiple high-level meetings in recent months in preparation for a barrage of Republican-led House investigations into issues varying from the US withdrawal from Afghanistan withdrawal to what conservative lawmakers have deemed “woke” military policies, according to a senior defense official. House Republicans have long signaled their intent to launch a series of probes if and when they gained the majority.
James McConville, for example, said in a July memo last year that the recruiting shortage – most severe for the Army – was due to a declining number of young Americans who are qualified to serve, Covid-19-related education restraints, and a lack of trust in American institutions. And in March 2021, Fox News’ Tucker Carlson was rebuked by military officials after mocking women in uniform during his show.
