    I hope he starts with all his stupid ass kids who don’t deserve to be anywhere near government.

      My understanding is that he is cutting the people who promote/enforce DEI in the goverment and not those who were hired because of it.

        Also he can’t actuall cut them, so instead they will be in indefinite paid leave.

        Wish I was a DEI worker right now TBH…
