Former Space Force commander: Pentagon's 'extremism analysis' project appears to skip anti-police slogans

U.S. Space Force Lt. Col. Matthew Lohmeier, joined “Fox News Primetime”, and expressed concern Monday over the partisan undertones of the Pentagon's endeavor to scour servicemembers' internet search histories to root out purported "extremism."

According to Defense One, the contractor Moonshot CVE, which has ties to the Obama Foundation, is working on data that would identify which military bases and branches have the most troops searching for domestic extremist content. Lohmeier said the aforementioned search term doesn't seem to appear nefarious, especially given the fact Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin III ordered a Down Day to discuss extremism in the ranks earlier this year. "Very little surprises me anymore, as I continue to consider just how focused it seems that the Defense Department is on routing out White extremism and White supremacy in the services right now," he said. "I'm not sure exactly how it is that you are able to tell from search terms that much about the individuals that are serving in uniform."
