WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump’s administration is directing that all federal diversity, equity and inclusion staff be put on paid leave, and that agencies develop plans to lay them off, according to a memo Tuesday from the Office of Personnel Management.
Right. It leaves out the fact that the paid leave precedes the gutting of all federal DEI offices.
The language in the order also encourages people to call out any activity which might mask or obscure efforts to erase DEI such as code words. Scary stuff.
