SOCOM Investigating New Diversity Chief's Posts, Including One Comparing Trump to Hitler

Those who serve in, or work alongside, the United States military are legally required to remain politically neutral under specific circumstances so as not to give the appearance that the military - and by extension, the government - supports one side of an issue over the other.

Well, a "chief of diversity" hired to supplement the Army's special forces command is now under fire because he's made a series of incendiary statements on social media, including talking about how much he hates cops and how he thinks Trump is Hitler.

Not only did this person become a living meme, he's now at risk of losing his entire career.

He's a civilian employee who, from what I can tell from his LinkedIn profile, didn't work for the DOD at the time of the posts:

Nothing in your article said anything about him hating cops.
