New article: Records show how DOGE planned Trump’s DEI purge — and who gets fired next

[Anonymous]

This is an important article because it shows this isn’t just about “DEI.” During Phase 3, they intend to go after statutorily-mandated civil rights work and shut down all those offices. This means employment discrimination, fair housing, voting rights, ADA, and general civil rights—all this work will be dismantled.

This stuff pre-dates DEI work that became more prevalent after 2020 and a target of the right, but they are broadly couching all civil rights work under the DEI banner to try to dismantle it. This will all be challenged in court, of course, since these laws are still in effect and there are certain government mandates under law. But their intentions are very clear. Even if the offices survive, they will be hamstrung and have a skeletal staff and minimal resources.

But it was ok for that DOGE staffer to get rehired when he was tweeting blatantly racist comments only six months ago? I see your party's hypocrisy and find it disgusting. Eff off.

+1 I’ve never seen a more rag-tag group than this cabinet and this ilk hanging around the felon.

Feel anyway you wants, identify anyway you want, dress anyway you like, and choose whatever relationship you want to be in, but stay away from women's sports. That part I am happy about.

There were around nine people in sports...This made no change to life for most.

Exactly. While I don't think transwomen should be competing against biological women, I think this was largely a massively overhyped political boondoggle.
The average American female athlete literally had less than a one-in-a-million chance of even competing against a transwoman athlete in the first place and even then the transwoman wasn't necessarily going to win or even dominate the sport. For example with all the hype about trans swimmer Lia Thomas, and Riley Gaines going on the national speaking tour carrying on about how her career was ruined and how she was denied greatness by Lia Thomas, what got glossed over is that in that competition, Lia Thomas didn't even place in the top 3. She came in 5th place, which is practically meaningless in sports.

And what ultimately pisses me off is that for some reason this transwoman hype was made far far far far more important than dealing with ACTUALLY SERIOUS ISSUES like our broken healthcare system or the drug addiction epidemic or mass shootings. THOSE are things directly affecting the lives of FAR MORE Americans than transwomen, and it's a slap in the face that transwomen became the top priority at the expense of everything else and the far greater harms to America.

I’m very honest in telling my blacks sons and daughter that these folks want to see them swinging from a tree.

They found their wedge issue. You should expect this to be the only thing they talk about in 2026.

And yet you stick to your guns and insisted on pronouns and all that woke shit. This led to Trump. YOU and people like you brought this down on all our heads by insisting on your extreme left worldview and calling anyone that disagreed with you despicable and evil.

And the Democrats will dutifully hand it to them on a silver player because pronouns are more important than prosperity.

It doesn’t matter what Democratic candidates do or say. The republicans are going to run on it. Just like this year.

It’s a toxic environment. Better to understand who and what you are dealing with.
