'Woke' DOD official Kelisa Wing reassigned after GOP highlights anti-white tweets
[NYPOST] Self-described "woke" Defense Department schools official Kelisa Wing, whose anti-white social media comments garnered national attention last fall, has been reassigned to an unrelated role, The Post has learned.
To be honest, she doesn't sound like a fun dinner date.
The Defense Department in October launched a 30-day review of Wing — the now-former education activity chief diversity equity and inclusion officer — after her Twitter posts with disparaging comments about white people resurfaced.

"I’m so exhausted at these white folx in these [professional development] sessions this lady actually had the CAUdacity to say black people can be racist too," she wrote in one post from June 2020, using a portmanteau for "Caucasian audacity."


While Wing’s job change came after the DoD completed its review, Undersecretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness Gilbert Cisneros Jr. said it took place not as a "disciplinary action" but rather "as part of a headquarters restructuring."

But at a House Military Personnel Subcommittee hearing on the impacts of "diversity, equity, and inclusion" in the DoD and military, Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) said she was skeptical that the job change was made purely for reorganizational reasons.

“I have a feeling that has to do with the fact that we [Republicans] have shined light on this,” she said.

While she and other lawmakers had requested updates on Wing’s review months earlier, Stefanik said she received a letter just three hours before the hearing where the matter would be discussed.

“I wrote a letter to the department in September of last year and did not receive a response. It was only when I wrote a follow-up letter in November of last year [that] we did finally get a response in December stating the department was conducting an inquiry into this matter,” she said.
