Women at War: The Fight Over Peace and Power in the Pentagon
In this explosive episode of Voice of America, host Vincent Froom dives deep into the controversy surrounding the abrupt termination of the Women, Peace, and Security (WPS) program by MAGA-appointed Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. Once proudly launched under Donald Trump and championed by Ivanka Trump and Senator Marco Rubio, WPS was designed to empower women’s roles in global conflict resolution and military operations. Now, it’s been slammed as “woke” and discarded with a tweet.
But what’s really at stake when women’s voices are silenced in national security?
With real stories from women in uniform, expert analysis, and hard-hitting historical context, we explore how this political flashpoint reveals deeper tensions about gender, power, and the future of the armed forces. From Afghanistan to Capitol Hill, this is the battle you didn’t see coming—but one that could reshape how America fights and keeps peace.
Tune in now—because this time, the war is about who gets to lead the peace.
