Promises made, promises kept. President Donald J. Trump signed an executive order shutting down the woke DEI nonsense within the federal government, and those plans go into effect tomorrow at 5 PM. By the close of business on Tuesday, all federal DEI offices are to close, and its workers will be placed on paid leave. This far-left social experiment, which contributes nothing to society other than wasting taxpayer money, is over.
.@kristincbrown scoops: All federal employees in DEI roles have to be put on paid leave by 5:00pm tmrw. @USOPM also included email template for federal workers saying DEI programs have "divided Americans by race, wasted taxpayer dollars, and resulted in shameful discrimination."
