Trump to address West Point graduates as he tries to impose agenda on military
Briefly

Donald Trump is set to address West Point graduates, reflecting his administration's efforts to enforce a rightwing agenda at military academies. This includes disbanding student clubs, like the Society of Women Engineers, and enforcing the removal of specific books deemed incompatible with the administration's stance on diversity, equity, and inclusion. Furthermore, Trump has proposed a $540 billion investment in a missile defense system, highlighting defense policies in his speech. Additionally, plans for an Army parade in DC serve as a dual occasion for Trump’s birthday and a celebration of the Army's anniversary amid significant federal policy shifts.
"Our military service academies are facing significant changes under the current administration, including the disbandment of clubs and removal of certain educational materials that pose a challenge to diversity initiatives."
