This country is not ready for a war against her enemies. You can thank the current White House for that.
And now the Biden-Harris admin made a terrifying nuclear announcement you’ll never believe.
A nuclear security official in the Biden-Harris administration’s Department of Energy (DOE) called for “queering nuclear weapons” in an article she co-wrote last year.
“[Q]ueer theory can help change how nuclear practitioners, experts, and the public think about nuclear weapons,” Sneha Nair and Louis Reitmann wrote in a June 2023 piece for the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists.
The piece is tagged as “Queering nuclear weapons: How LGBTQ+ inclusion strengthens security and reshapes disarmament.”
Nair is currently a Special Assistant at the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), a DOE entity.
“Queer identity is also relevant for the nuclear field because it informs theories that aim to change how officials, experts, and the public think about nuclear weapons,” said Nair, along with her co-author:
Queer theory… shines a light on the harm done by nuclear weapons through uranium mining, nuclear tests, and the tax money spent on nuclear weapons … instead of on education, infrastructure, and welfare. The queer lens prioritizes the rights and well-being of people over the abstract idea of national security, and it challenges the mainstream understanding of nuclear weapons—questioning whether they truly deter nuclear war, stabilize geopolitics, and reduce the likelihood of conventional war.
“Queer theory asks: Who created these ideas?” the article continued. “And whose experiences are being excluded? Queer theory also identifies how the nuclear weapons discourse is gendered.”
In a separate article Nair penned two months earlier, she wrote: “Unfortunately, the nuclear field … has historically lacked diversity. This includes racial representation, gender, sexuality, and other marginalized demographics.”
The article published in April 2023 is called “Converging Goals: Examining the Intersection Between Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion [DEI] and Nuclear Security Implementation.”
“Creating a diverse, equitable, and inclusive nuclear security culture requires organizations to ensure that DEI is seen as a critical component of security throughout the organization, from the executives to the guard force,” according to her article.
In addition to promoting DEI and the LGBTQ movement, Nair has previously advocated for far-left racial policies in her publications.
“Imagining anti-racist U.S. foreign policy in action starts with acknowledging the effects of systemic racism and white supremacy on policymaking and finding ways to prevent it from persisting,” Nair wrote in an undated post for the left-wing think tank New America:
Centering antiracism as a core principle of U.S. foreign policy would mean leaders, both in government and civil society, acknowledging both systemic racism and white supremacy as structural drivers of decision-making and policy outcomes. … An anti-racist foreign policy shifts the focus away from an idealized, white image of the United States, to a more realistic representation of the population, both in the interests it represents and the people making decisions.
The Biden-Harris DOE announced in February that Nair would join the Department, along with four other new hires.
The DOE stated at the time, “With these new hires and recent promotions, DOE appointees continue to make up a historically diverse team, with 60% women, 57% people of color, and 25% of staff identifying as LGBTQ+.”
Nair is not the first contentious DEI-aligned staffer to work for the Biden-Harris DOE in a nuclear-related job.
CatholicVote reported last September:
Police executing a search warrant found stolen clothing in the home of Sam Brinton, an anti-Catholic LGBTQ activist and alleged kleptomaniac who once held a position in the Biden administration’s [DOE].
While police were searching Brinton’s residence, they found clothes that were reportedly lost five years ago by fashion designer Asya Khamsin at Ronald Reagan National Airport in Arlington, VA.
Brinton identifies as “non-binary” and has been accused of snatching women’s bags at airports several times.
