Living in a society where it is norm for females to take roles to protect men from physical threats would have been unthinkable back in America’s saner days. It would be like imagining that when the Titanic ship famously sunk, instead of men sacrificing their lives for the women and children, women tried to save the men. If this kind of warped thinking had dominated society back then, America’s rise to greatness would have sunk right along with the Titanic. No nation can stand unless the strong protect the weak.
Yet what “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion” (DEI) proposes is that women act like men and become equal protectors in America. DEI is Democrats’ made-up initiative that seeks to implement a radical progressive agenda by erasing men and women’s biological differences (an ideology that mirrors the transgender movement).
As we now know, DEI has been implemented in the Secret Service. As news spread about the shock attack on President Donald Trump’s life at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, Americans were immediately struck by the bizarre scene of a number of women assigned to protect Trump (and, to boot, women shorter than him).
The Secret Service’s director, Kimberly Cheatle, has since been forced to resign, but not before it was discovered that she gave a previously aired CBS interview and bragged about her work to change the sexual make-up of the Secret Service using DEI, shedding light on why the Secret Service today does not resemble the same male-dominant force that showed a much quicker reaction and surrounded Ronald Reagan in the early 1980s when he was shot at.
As DEI continues to take over much of government and corporate America’s human resources, we must recognize the consequences that lie ahead. This is particularly true for occupations focused on providing public protection and that depend on male physical strength. So as the nation reviews the Secret Service’s internal policies, America needs to become aware of where else DEI policy is replacing men with women and posing a risk to human life.
Putting out Fires in New York
New York’s Fire Department (FDNY) is one such example. Just like the Secret Service, the FDNY has had at its helm a woman who has been working to emasculate the department with increased female hires.
Appointed by Mayor Eric Adams back in 2022, Laura Kavanagh has served as the first-ever female fire commissioner. In the last several weeks, Kavanagh has come under public scrutiny for her handling of personnel matters. It has been revealed that she sent communication besmirching the FDNY to New York Attorney General Letitia James, someone who has vindictively been out to get President Trump.
According to news reports, Kavanagh is close friends with James and was miffed with firefighters who chanted “Trump” and booed James at a FDNY graduation ceremony event in March. In private texts that disparaged the FDNY, Kavanagh told James she had tried to “fix” the behavior of the FDNY’s predominantly male workforce but hasn’t “succeeded.”
Not surprisingly, Kavanagh’s unkind remarks about New York’s beloved FDNY triggered a public backlash. Since then, Kavanagh has announced plans to leave her post, though her supporters, including Adams, insist her resignation is voluntary.
While Kavanagh wished she could “fix” the FDNY, it should be noted that she has nonetheless made consequential personnel changes to the male-female ratios. Adams, a progressive, bragged about this in a statement praising Kavanagh for how she “overhauled how the FDNY recruits and retains […] while simultaneously tripling the number of women serving as firefighters.”
Simple Facts of Strength
The fact that Adams celebrates that firefighter slots have been filled with men instead of women is simply illogical, especially since it likely means the physical standards for hiring have been lowered. That also means the physical capability of firefighters to save lives has also been lowered. The stronger and more fit that firefighters are, obviously the greater the likelihood that they are equipped to save lives. The average physically fit man is stronger than even the most exceptionally strong woman. Case closed.
And if there is a shortage of strong and healthy men applying, then the FDNY needs to do a better job at recruiting.
Arguing that there are certain jobs that only men are physically apt to do should by no means be misconstrued as degradation of women’s intellect or value. There are plenty of conservative, patriotic women who would be capable of serving in the highest office of the land and be a better option as president than many men, such as Joe Biden.
Also, contrary to the secular feminist narrative that is folded into DEI ideology, when men protect women (and children) from physical threats, this is not anti-woman, it is pro-woman. It is a sign of a healthy, functioning society.
Nowhere was this greater displayed than by the tragic and heart-wrenching death of Corey Comperatore, a retired firefighter chief who happened to attend Trump’s Butler rally and was horrifically murdered while heroically, sacrificially, and lovingly laying down his own life to save his wife and daughters. He showed the natural male DNA instinct that is in husbands and fathers to value women above ourselves.
As President Trump beautifully quoted from the Bible during his Republican National Convention acceptance speech: “There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for others.”
