Why It Matters: Trump’s dismantling of DEI priorities is directly gutting federal efforts to protect marginalized communities. In this case, it leaves Black residents in Lowndes County exposed to unsafe, unsanitary conditions with no federal support.
I don't understand how making sure that US citizens aren't exposed to unsafe living conditions is DEI.
In order for it to be 'DEI' the government would work to make sure that ONLY minorities lived in safe and sanitary conditions, and everyone else would have to fend for themselves.
(Correct me if I'm still not understanding how trump is using fucking 'DEI.')
I have just forced myself to read the tracker from start to finish and I am both absolutely horrified and staggered to realise how many thousands of Americans are following through with enforcing these dictatorial attempts at suppressing dissent throughout the USA in clear breach of the constitution. In the UK it could not happen and our law enforcement staff are non-political. I do not believe that so many in the USA have been corrupted by these attempts at extreme suppression driven by the desire to enrich themselves. The GOP must be feeding off misguided beliefs of unfair treatment which goes back decades. The pure ignorance of the whole set of policies is something unseen since the French Revolution or Russian Revolutions or Nazi takeover of parts of Europe and the Mediterranean. It is like an unstoppable wish to self-destruct.
You are right Olga, Trump and his coterie are very worried about the midterms and rightfully so. They will take every opportunity to throw those elections into chaos. The enforced taking of polygraph tests on the federal workforce is extremely alarming. Who else will be forced to sit down to answer questions about their loyalty-federal judges? Maybe people who pasd such tests will be awarded those gold Trump profile lapel pins which well become a fast track to promotion in the hierarchy. End-runs around Posse Comitatus at the border are very disturbing as is the even more odious criminalization of abortion - what tyrrany! The naval academy library purged of Maysa Angelou but Mein Kampf remains- more misogyny. Greenland being threatened. Dugim being given soap boxes to stand on. Ray Dallo, a man who should be taken seriously, now warning about depression? It feels like the end of days for the America we once knew.
I’m sure the federal charges against the fire bomber will be dismissed. The felon will “pressure” the state charges be dropped as well, and he will be given a place in the felons administration.

Trump's figured out crypto value comes from insane ranting.

What Trump and his administration are enabling.
