The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

The last arbiters of truth, as we fall into oligarchy/authoritarianism, will be the humorists: political cartoonists, comedians, late night talk show hosts, satirists. When you can no longer trust the mainstream media, you can rely on the humorists to cut to the truth.
