Pentagon’s new measures against anti-Kirk speech mirror efforts to combat right-wing extremism last year.

• The Pentagon has introduced new measures aimed at curbing anti-Kirk rhetoric, reflecting earlier strategies used to address right-wing extremism.
• These actions are part of broader extremism policies that were initially implemented following the January 6 Capitol riot.
• The policies specifically target military officers who express support for political assassinations on social media platforms.
• This initiative suggests a continued focus on maintaining discipline and addressing radical behaviors within the military ranks.
• By expanding the scope of their extremism policies, the Pentagon aims to prevent politically motivated violence and ensure adherence to democratic principles among military personnel.
