Gosar's Campaign Disavows Controversial Email on Army Demographics

The email, criticizing a decline in white Army recruits and 'woke' ideologies, aligns with Gosar's previous statements but was claimed to be unauthorized.

• Rep. Paul Gosar's campaign claims a fundraising email lamenting the decline in white Army recruits was unauthorized and unapproved.
• The email, which criticized the Army's demographic shift and 'woke' ideologies, was allegedly sent by a former email vendor whose contract was not renewed years ago.
• The email's sentiments align with Gosar's previous statements criticizing inclusion efforts and 'woke' ideologies within the military.
• Military.com's report suggests the decline in white recruits could be due to the booming job market and the high rate of opioid overdoses among young white men.
• This is not the first time Gosar has attributed controversial communications to a mistake, having previously promoted an antisemitic link and sent a welcome video to a white nationalist event due to 'staff errors.'
