This is good news. "Operation divide America" has come to en end. Pitting race against race, categorizing Americans into castes... is finally over. Everyone can now unite around a common symbol of freedom, which is... : America! The artificial race war is over.

As long as they don’t just retitle the position like the ATF did.

So what I’m reading the USAF, in which I served, is saying “okay, we’re shutting down but we’ll do it to the extent and as fast as we choose”. Got it. How hard is it to say “we’re closed, everyone go home”?

for fed employees it was close the office and send the staff on paid leave.

Would the military situation be different?

Yes you are right. It should be done in a matter of 24h.
It’s uncomplicated. They just need to press the OFF button so to speak.

Too little, too late to retain hundreds of dedicated fully trained pilots. The airlines thank yo anyway, Brandon.

If there are any signs of foot-dragging, back-sliding, or gaming start cutting at the top and cut down as far as necessary.

Don't worry about cutting too many 4-star generals; we have too many as is.

They promoted their DEI leader to an executive position not listed as DEI.

He needs to get Hegseth in there as secretary of defense to fire the bozos. The president has to have sec def to do the purge through the chain of command.

I work for the Army, they are busy retitling positions and project teams, but only if that was not their primary duty. If primary duty, they would comply and put them on admin leave (but we don’t have anyone like that of course). Sneaky, because most of these DEI teams are not a primary duty; you have someone who may be a team lead for combat engineering, and also serves on several committees, one of which may be DEI, another could be advanced materials science. I don’t think they should be put on paid leave, in cases like this, but I do think the committees should be shut down and not renamed.

They’re hiding the roaches and termites, but they’re still there.

Based on my experience at work today, this is being worked very aggressively with attention at the highest level. That may vary from base to base.

From the article, this crap has been burrowing into the service since 2012. Just based on the objections raised, this service may require a firm hand and some removals from key positions up and down the chain of command.

I agree that the US Service Academies should be monitored.
We do not need arrogant young men and women, who have been soaked with the idea that they are the brilliant stars of the future, to believe they really are.
I have seen and know some, three in my family, morph into sickening left wingers who don’t believe in God, support abortion, and disrespectful of all our country stands for.

WHY CAN'T IT BE COMPLETED OVERNIGHT? JUST TELL THE DEI DRONES NOT TO SHOW UP ANYMORE STARTIMG IN THE MORNING.

Our troops have endured more than enough of this crap. The brass is dragging their ass in defiance. Court martial their sorry asses. This is Brown's doing. He made his defiance known Tuesday. Not going anywhere he said. We damn well better sure see about that soon. Decapitate the flag fags.
