Inside Trumps Racist Crusade To Erase American Heroes From US History

Why does trump the coward.

You’re obviously clueless but it’s you cowardly leftists who were destroying statutes.

President Donald Trump’s administration has made it a top priority to remove anything associated with diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives from federal websites, regardless of the context. But in doing so, it’s erasing history—and making a compelling case for why we shouldn’t be dismantling the Department of Education.

One glaring example of this is Pete Hegseth’s Department of Defense, which, in early March, erroneously removed a historic image of the B-29 bomber, the Enola Gay, from the Pentagon’s website. (The plane dropped the first atomic bomb over Hiroshima, Japan, during World War II.) Why? Because the aircraft’s name contains the word “gay.”

This absurdity is a powerful illustration of how far Trump and his cronies will go in their quest to eliminate anything that might be construed as “inclusive.” But this particular flub reveals the administration’s true intentions: to distort historical facts for the sake of ideological purity.

More recently, on Tuesday, it was reported that the Defense Department removed articles about the Navajo Code Talkers from its website, supposedly following a directive from Trump and Hegseth to eliminate all DEI-related content from Pentagon and military sites.

As we’ve highlighted before, though, under Trump, DEI has been reduced to little more than a smokescreen. The term now serves as a tool for denying opportunities to people of color, women, and minorities—if not erasing them entirely from the history books.

Watching all of this get reversed, and brought back on steroids, will be entertaining. Almost as much as watching maga heads explode when it happens.

This nation was NOT founded on DEI. It was founded by white guys, based on ENLIGHTENMENT era ideals, and allowed slavery for over the first century.

Race based slavery, so I'm not sure how you include that into a claim of DEI.

 

[Delldude]

Here we see a dumb white man trying to create a false equivalence by conflating opposing his racism to the racism he practices.

I'm not racist, I hate everybody equally.......

Why does trump the coward.

We elected Trump because we knew he would make America great again.

 

[lennypartiv]

Trump is getting rid of DEI. That's what we elected him to do.
