Rand Corporation, America’s most prominent avowedly nonpartisan think tank, and the leading policy adviser to the Department of Defense, is all in on DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion). “We’re committed to building and sustaining a culture that integrates DEI principles into our everyday operations and engagements,” the RAND website proclaims. This is a major setback for U.S. defense, economic, and health-care policy, as well as for unbiased analysis.
RAND (Research and Development) was formed in 1948 by General Curtis LeMay, General Henry “Hap” Arnold, and Donald Douglas, founder of what became aerospace manufacturer McDonnell Douglas, to blend “scrupulous nonpartisanship with rigorous, fact-based analysis” in advising the United States Air Force. Since then, RAND has become a key policy adviser to the Department of Defense and to governments and corporations worldwide.
