Pentagon gives ultimatum to Scouting America -- drop 'wokeness' or be dumped [View all]

The Pentagon has threatened to drop its decades-long military support for Scouting America, formerly known as Boy Scouts, according to reports Tuesday.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has been critical of the organization and its name change, particularly its decision to allow girls to join the formerly all-male youth program, according to The Washington Post.

The move is the Trump administration's most recent attack on diversity, inclusion and its focus on stopping what it has referred to as "wokeness."
