Members of the House Anti-Woke Caucus demanded answers from Merchant Marine Academy Superintendent Joanna Nunan regarding tweets from the school's SASH prevention director.
Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts weighs in on current and former U.S. Merchant Marine midshipmen warning that "woke ideology" is taking over the academy on "Fox & Friends."official is under fire for a series of racially charged tweets – including one in which he attributes misogyny and racism to"the same white, male root."
Anton Tripolskii, who was hired at the Kings Point, New York, school as its $142,595-per-year sexual assault response director, sent a June 2020 tweet that's now at the target of a scathing letter from the U.S. House's Anti-Woke Woke Caucus. "We don’t have forces who do right by survivors of intimate partner and sexual violence because we don’t have forces who don’t abuse Brown and Black people," Tripolskii wrote in the controversial tweet."Same forces, same reasons. Misogyny and racism grow from the same white, male root."
The Anti-Woke Caucus is now calling on the academy's superintendent to demand answers on the Twitter activity of Tripolskii, who was installed in September. The letter – signed by Republican Reps. Jim Banks of Indiana, Mary Miller of Illinois, Jeff Duncan of South Carolina and Brian Babin of Texas – comes amid allegations from some midshipmen that the service academy under the authority of Superintendent Vice Adm. Joanna Nunan and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg has become increasingly"woke."
