While the Office of Personnel Management only had three contracts canceled, the dollar figure was pinned at a whopping $494,956,233, an average of about $165 million per DEI contract.

WINNING, WINNING, WINNING....

To quote Reagan, trust but verify. Is there an actual document that shows what, and when these cancellations will take place, some transparency and detail would be nice.

Funny that this report does not identify individuals, corporations, NGO’s or law firms that may have been on the receiving end of the billions squandered on DEI contracts

Any ideas who got it?

These are fun things to do but they’re a drop in the bucket compared to the 2 trillion that needs to come out of the budget.

That’s about as helpful as the smart watch I tried which even when I wasn’t wearing it, the numbers would still adjust down and up for the health things it supposedly was monitoring.

That’s just the savings from the people running the programs.

Imagine an operation with 5,000 employees who had to sit through a four hour DEI training. That’s 20,000 labor hours that have been saved. Add on another 5,000 hours of those people going to and from those trainings (and bitching about them.)

25,000 labor hours represents 12 Full time equivalent employees.

The multiplier effect is staggering for these programs.
