It's everywhere. DEI has been banished from Florida educational institutions too. Don't teach that diversity stuff. Florida educators, students speak out on curriculum changes
A rare rational decision although the fact that the teaching of the story of the Tuskegee Airmen was even withdrawn in the first place illustrates the Trump Administration's absurd obsession with DEI and also the fact the term is very poorly defined.
Our country faces major defense challenges. China, Ukraine, Russia, ME, alongside an $850 billion budget - just a few. But Hegseth is prioritizing his TV punditry - MAGA demagoguery, and culture wars. His plan to target top staff who don't align with his agenda, while also marginalizing minorities (a third of active-duty personnel) & women (about 20%) won’t strengthen our military. In fact it could hurt moral and impact recruitment - which is a bigger issue than being “too woke”.
Well, my Agency took a bunch of stuff offline on day 1 so that they can review to make sure it doesnt violate the EO. Because they weren't given a long timeline to comply, they took a bunch of stuff down as quick as they can. They are now in the process of restoring things that should remain up. So no conspiracy here.
According to a recent Military.com article, white male enlistment / recruitment in the U.S. Armed Services has been greatly declining, while minorities and women have been stepping up. There's already an estimated 10,000 person shortage in needed forces. So sure, go ahead and ostracize people who are willing to serve. Some factors cited for reduced white male enlistment: the obesity epidemic and underfunded public education system. Really tired of DEI being the scapegoat for white guys not enlisting. So dumb.
I know how to kill two birds with one stone. Instead of deporting all those immigrants they're arresting, make them serve two years in the military. That is, give them a choice, I'm sure most would choose to be new recruits.
Didn't Binden first give these drugmakers like $90 billion first? Trump had low insulin prices all covered in his first term... Most Favored Nation pricing on ALL DRUGS that Biden killed as soon as he took office.
yep. The rules to enlist are less stringent on physical and educational requirements and our military still falls short on recruitment. But improving recruitment is much less catchy than blaming it on woke. Poor fitness among recruits is costing the Army millions, study says.
Did he now? Price for insulin: It went up to $275 under Trump, stayed there the whole time, before dropping to $66 in 2024. Insulin Over the years
Seems to that Pete is already at it. Pentagon agency won't observe Black History Month, Holocaust Remembrance
Why, without just reciting some talking point that you read somewhere, do you believe that the last place DEI belongs is in the military?
in the military you have to have people who earned their way not watered down criteria you get from DEI
