They’re dedicated officers, and CIA benefits from having a core group working to lower barriers.

Is he next going to remove the staff assembled to address sexual assault issues?

Someone should explain to CIA Director Ratcliffe why you need diversity. When I was living in inner city Detroit, I remembered white plainclothes cops driving, who stuck out like a sore thumb.
During the Apache wars, the US was victorious because they had Apache scouts.

How so? Musk is following the US Constitution which calls for LIMITED government and Soros is funding communist/marxist ideals that oppose the Constitution.

It's gotta be so much fun for these creeps. They're given a blank check to cut a wide path of destruction. Who hasn't fantasized swinging a sledgehammer with abandon.
Sorry/not sorry if people get hurt.

I would love to hear them argue how it's in our country's best interest to fire employees who ensure the best possible candidate, regardless of gender or skin color, is hired to work at the Central Intelligence Agency.

What is the national interest? I'd really like to understand this part.

When do we get to the increase in jobs Trump will bring to the U.S. All I see is people getting fired.

First anti woke, now anti DEI. Trying to reframe it so judges won't see it as discrimination. They're creating distraction issues to hide the real problem.

So we’re going to fire, qualified people and hire UNqualified white people to make sure there’s no diversity equity or inclusion. We will have the whitest least effective UNintelligent agency in the world.
