Has DEI Been Eradicated from the Military and the Battle for Election Integrity

On Friday, July 11, 2025, Kim Monson examines the ongoing battle against despotism in government with General Joe Arbuckle on military DEI reforms, Patty McKernan on election integrity concerns in Arapahoe County, Alicia Garcia and Teddy Collins on Second Amendment advocacy, and Steve Goreham on the collapse of net-zero energy policies. Election Integrity and Cast Vote Record Manipulation Start listening at 17:07 – Hour 1 Patty McKernan, chair of Congressional District 6, exposes troubling irregularities in Arapahoe County’s 2020 election records. The county clerk’s office altered 15.5 million data points in cast vote records after citizens discovered identical voting patterns between Biden and Trump voters on the Gallagher Amendment repeal. McKernan details how both groups appeared to vote exactly the same way to repeal Gallagher, a statistical impossibility that raised immediate red flags among election watchers. When confronted with the evidence, the county quietly changed the records and re-presented them on the Arapahoe Votes website without public notification. The clerk’s office has since accused concerned citizens of spreading “disinformation” and attempting to “destabilize democracy.” McKernan announces the Colorado Election Integrity Summit scheduled for Tuesday, July 15, featuring keynote speaker Dr. Douglas Frank, known as the “Johnny Appleseed of election integrity.” “When it was pointed out to Joan Lopez, lo and behold, in 2025, they went back in and said, oh, it was a redacting error.” Patty McKernan, Chair, Congressional District 6 Military DEI Rollbacks and the Return to Meritocracy Start listening at 32:00 – Hour 1 General Joe Arbuckle, retired Army Major General and Vice Chairman of STARRS, reports significant progress in eliminating DEI programs from the Department of Defense. President Trump’s executive order on January 20th declared DEI “unlawful and immoral,” requiring all DEI offices throughout the federal government to shut down immediately. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has issued six or seven implementing memos to execute the president’s guidance. General Arbuckle highlights Operation Midnight Hammer as the epitome of military professionalism, where B-2 bombers flew from the middle of America to strike Iranian nuclear facilities with flawless coordination. He emphasizes the warrior ethos of “one team, one fight,” where identity groups based on skin color or gender are irrelevant. Forty-four Army soldiers remained at an air base in Qatar, firing Patriot missiles to defend against incoming Iranian attacks under the command of a captain and lieutenant. The General warns about both foreign and domestic threats to America, referencing the 45 communist goals read into the Congressional Record in 1963, which included capturing political parties, controlling schools, infiltrating the press, eliminating prayer, and breaking down moral standards. He recommends the book Unrestricted Warfare by two Chinese colonels outlining plans to defeat America without firing a shot. “If I’m in a foxhole and there’s an enemy out there in front of me, we’re in a firefight, and I have a machine gunner next to me, I don’t care what that machine gunner’s color is or gender. All I want is the best machine gunner that Army can produce at that moment.” General Joe Arbuckle, Vice Chairman, STARRS Second Amendment Rights and the Big Beautiful Bill Start listening at 64:20 – Hour 2
