It’s Time for our Leaders to Catch Up

Freedom Flyers,

Today, Secretary of War announced a decisive end to woke ideology in the United States military. This is a bold step toward restoring a true meritocracy — one fueled by excellence, standards, and results, not feelings, quotas, or political agendas. This historic shift echoes the work Charlie Kirk and so many others have championed for years, and it represents a profound move in the broader fight against what this ideology truly is: communism dressed in modern clothing.

For too long, "wokeness" has been allowed to infiltrate America’s most important institutions, from the armed forces to our schools and workplaces. This is not progress. It is cultural communism — a deliberate effort to dismantle merit, individual achievement, and excellence in favor of collective groupthink and radical ideology. Today’s announcement is a signal: we can fight back, and we can win.

But while the military has begun its course correction, our corporate world still lags far behind. Many of the largest public companies remain enslaved to left-wing agendas, not because they choose to, but because they are financially pressured to do so by some of the biggest investment firms in the world. This pressure comes in the form of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) and CEI (Corporate Equality Index) scoring systems.

ESG Scoring: This system is used by powerful investment managers to rate companies not on how successful, profitable, or innovative they are, but on how well they comply with woke political initiatives. From climate activism to mandated diversity quotas, ESG prioritizes ideology over performance — forcing companies to abandon merit.

CEI Scoring: Pushed particularly by groups like the Human Rights Campaign, this system rates corporations based on how deeply they adopt radical gender and social policies. Companies are incentivized with high scores if they push leftist agendas through their products, policies, and staff training. Low scores risk loss of funding, investment, and public standing.

This is not free market capitalism. It is weaponized finance used to force submission to cultural communism, stripping away the competitive, merit-based systems that made America the strongest nation on Earth.

The military just showed us that it is possible to break free. The next battlefield is corporate America. We need CEOs and executives with the courage to reject ESG and CEI blackmail and return their companies to true meritocracies. We need leaders who believe in excellence over ideology, productivity over politics, and freedom over communism.

Now is the time to speak louder than ever, to push back against this takeover, and to challenge the systems that are eroding our culture and society. Together, we can restore America to its foundations: merit, accountability, and greatness.
