Biden’s Diversity and Inclusion Chief Under Investigation for Posts Comparing Trump to Hitler
The Department of Defense is investigating the head of the U.S. Special Operations Command’s office of diversity and inclusion for posting anti-Trump content to social media.
The Pentagon announced last week that it had hired Richard Torres-Estrada to serve as USSOCOM’s head of diversity. . .

The announcement sparked backlash online as old social media posts from Torres-Estrada’s Facebook page began circulating online. One post from June 2020 featured side-by-side photos of former President Donald Trump holding up a Bible outside of St. John’s Church in Washington, D.C., and a doctored image of Adolf Hitler made to look as if he is holding up a Bible.
Torres-Estrada captioned the post, “Here I leave this and slowly retire (to continue working from home)…”
A spokesman for USSOCOM confirmed to The Daily Caller News Foundation on Sunday that the Pentagon had opened up an investigation into Torres-Estrada over his social media posts. (Read more from “Biden’s Diversity and Inclusion Chief Under Investigation for Posts Comparing Trump to Hitler” HERE)
