GREG GUTFELD (HOST): We're in this era of massive opportunity costs because the Democrats' priorities are so far out of whack. Instead of focusing on real, external threats, they put their eggs in something else: domestic terror hoaxes, DEI and ESG in the military, actually demonizing our military -- suggesting and then doing research that there might actually be white supremacists in our midst. You have January 6 theater. You have troops being forced to read Marxist literature. And there is a cost in this. In the realm of defense, the chief concern should be defense, protecting the homeland. But that suffers when you politicize the military, when you put political and cultural ideas in front of that, you marginalize the efficiency, the deadliness, and readiness and the confidence of our military. You put feelings over fighting.
