[NYPOST] House Republicans are investigating a leaked glossary of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) terms passed around the National Security Agency, which they say provides a “deeply troubling” look into the “hiring and contracting processes” of the intelligence organization.Reps. Mike Waltz (R-Fla.) and Jim Banks (R-Ind.) wrote in a Tuesday letter to NSA Director Paul Nakasone that the glossary includes “incoherent” definitions of terms concerning gender, race and capitalism that could “harm national security.”
The lawmakers are asking for information about who disseminated the glossary, whether that employee has been disciplined and when it was removed from circulation.
“We understand NSA believes that an employee posted this glossary to an internal server without authorization and [it] was taken down once it was discovered,” they wrote.
“As a whole, it prompts these and other questions that as members of the House Armed Services Committee and Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence we need answered in order to conduct oversight and ensure NSA is focused on countering threats to US interests.”
The glossary includes well-known social justice terms like “white fragility” and “settler colonialism,” as well as endorsements of critical race theory as promoted by authors Robin DiAngelo and Ibram X. Kendi, according to a copy first published and reported on by the Daily Wire last week.
Waltz as a member of the House Intelligence Committee was able to verify the document’s authenticity.
The Post has since obtained a copy of the glossary, which also uses the words “AFAB/AMAB: Assigned Female At Birth, Assigned Male At Birth,” “genderqueer” and “dragqueen/king.”
