Pentagon has been ordering the removal of web site references to General Colin Powell and the Tuskegee Airmen and one of the flag-raisers at Iwo Jima as part of a crackdown on DEI. Have you no shame Pete Hegseth?(hat tip to Task and Purpose, WaPo for reporting) https://youtube.com/shorts/0HJpezfClkA?si=FZNlONCUniDObtJW

They are trying to ban books, shut down websites, and erase the people that know the truth.
He wants to use the militia at home and his army to invade Canada and Mexico and Greenland.
This is ALSO why he won't send troops overseas. He needs them here.
But we don’t let him
WTFU!
SHUT IT DOWN NOW!
DEI is just their cover
Guess again.
They're equal opportunity fascist exclusionists.
They want to erase EVERYONE, who isn't their particular brand of immature, mediocre white boys.
They're wannabes, pure and simple, which is why erasing the accomplishments of others is so very important to them - because theirs pale by comparison.
They are coming for that person you see in the mirror every morning.
The money collected from DOGE go towards building a palace for Trump and musk like the palace of Versailles or the Trump Mahal.
I would also not be surprised if they razed the White House to do this.
They are inferior beings who need to eliminate history so they can feel superior again
Spineless cowards who spit on the memories of Americans who fought for their country
DEI is their excuse to replace the N-word with Diversity, Equity & Inclusion.
To the racist MAGAts, those terms mean EXACTLY the same thing!
None. Zero. Zilch. Nada.
Our last Republican president, who had honor, integrity, and a love of our nation and ALL our people, was Eisenhower.
Full stop.
Racism pure Evil.
Are women's accomplishments next @JoniErnst?

418,500 Americans died in WWII. MAGA are desecrating their memory.
The same air
On vacation in a popular pizza joint
Where you'd often see famous people
+ no one cared
Gen Powell walked in
All conversation stopped
The awe in that jaded room
Staggering + appropriate
He took his order to go
And we knew we'd
Experienced greatness
Just like fascism, racism does not always come with open threats and violence; it often starts with omission and exclusion.
There is a saying
No quarter given
I am a white Veteran. I will NOT accept this from a SecDef.
Again?
Sorry Uncle Thomas, it don’t work that way.
It makes no sense.
This is a dog whistle.
He is saying "see what I did for you" and an implied "now come do this for me"
Jim Acosta (if this is really you)
Get ON this! (now would be good)

A few years ago the military renamed bases which had been named after Confederate leaders. I did a quick search & it appears he has already switched some names back. 😡

They think we're stupid.
They are lying to meet the letter of the law, but their intention to honor Confederates (TRAITORS) is obvious. And repulsive.
That said, I think the majority of the proponents are old, or live in limited sections of the country where the beliefs are multigenerational.
Jim, the man is a Nazi.
#AllRepublicansAreNazis
#HandSalute to our WWII vets for their sacrifices and service.
Hegseth, Palitore, Nauta, Shapiro & all the other Trump appointees (Trump included) in this administration have no idea.
I look at it as racist white men saying DEI is taking away my white privilege!
noticed much concern about it. In nothing I’ve read is the blatant racism ever part of what’s foreseen as something that will being him down.
It’s who we are.
100# support for that guy from me. No hesitation whatsoever…😉🇺🇸🇺🇦
This is the gleeful destruction that children do when adult supervision is removed.
on Friday, ALL GOP senators voted AGAINST rehiring the Veterans who were just fired by Elon’s DOGE. Zero support for Veterans from GOP-Even John Cornyn, a Veteran‘s son.
The GOP is assuming the vote won’t make news. Please spread this info. Link:

Thanks for your service is not nearly enough.
Let's show them we thank them for their service and the sacrifices!
Use your voice.
Everybody everyday!
Call your elected officials

#WhiteBoySummer starter pack!😜 #FuckTheGOP
I still can't believe they didn't cheat...
Save the actual army foreign countries.
wake up world

Instead choosing to look the other way (Jim excepted) and disguise them as "conservatives" or "Republicans".
Nope. Nazis.
At American 🇺🇸 I have history on my side.
#FuckMAGA
You need to understand that Colin Powell slept his way to the top and never deserved his career.
They're making history white again.
"NWM"
Please call it for what it is.
The question is what can and will we do about it.
Every single one of those people displayed more honour, courage and integrity in a single day than Hegseth ever has in his whole life.
They literally were shining examples of service before self, of duty.
Pete is what happens when you try to polish a turd. It’s no better
