A Non-DEI Administration

January 28, 2025, the Defense Department Intelligence Agency (DIA) paused Special Emphasis Programs and related activities and events. What does that mean? It means they have stopped observances of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Pride Month, Holocaust Days of Remembrance, Asian Pacific Islander, and other cultural or historical annual events due to Trump's ban on diversity, equity, and inclusion programs in the federal workplace. They ordered all Command, Elements, and Special Offices to cease and desist any celebrations, calling it a "pause." The Order also put a "pause" on all Affinity Groups, Agency Resource Groups, and Employee Networking Groups.

The DIA put out an official memo, and it is unknown at this time if other Agencies within the Department of Defense (DOD) have also issued one.

Due to the confusion of all of these executive orders, memos, and official letters that have been created, Secretary of Defense Hegseth ordered staff to create a DEI Task Force to ensure no DEI programs remain within the Pentagon. He was quoted as saying in a Fox News interview, "We are not joking around." I guess they will pull Federal workers to be on the Task Force.

The programs to be "paused" include Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month, National American Indian Heritage Month, National Disability Employment Awareness Month, Women's Equality Day, and Women's History Month.

Meanwhile (1), the new Transportation Secretary put out an order to give preference to communities with marriage and birth rates higher than the normal average. Wait, what about the no-diversity stop? Huh?

Note: January 30, 2025, Trump conducted a reality TV news conference presentation touting his highly intelligent, non-DEI-appointed cabinet members instead of concentrating on the crash of a military helicopter and civilian plane in the Potomac River and the horror of it. He had a moment of silence first. When asked if he planned to visit the crash site, his response included the remarks, "'I have a plan to visit – not the site. Because what – you tell me. What's the site? Water. We're going to go swimming?'." Haha, POTUS. You are so funny, very biggly funny.

Meanwhile (2), Elon Musk visited the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), which is the Federal government's overall personnel office. After he had visited, the crazy memo went out, giving the employees a pre-written resignation letter (see story) with a deadline of February 6. It came to my attention that these idiots in the new Administration, who Trump says are of the highest intelligence, used DNS servers to test their email system, which created a huge security risk – that is too complicated to include in this story. It has garnered a lawsuit over privacy concerns. I give congratulations to POTUS and his staff of the highest excellence, as he puts it. Great job (I am huffing with sarcasm and anger). After South African-born Mr. Tesla was finished at OPM; he visited the General Services Administration (GSA). GSA is the agency that handles government travel, credit cards, hotel and per diem rates, vehicles, and buildings, to name a few. In the Guardian, January 2025, Errol Musk, Elon's father, talked about the parents of Maye, Elon's mother. He said: "They were very fanatical in favor of apartheid," he told Podcast and Chill. "Her parents came to South Africa from Canada because they sympathized with the Afrikaner government. They used to support Hitler and all that sort of stuff."

Racism is in his blood; he was raised in a country where the lines were clearly drawn.

Meanwhile (3), Steven Davis, who assisted with Musk's reducing expenses at X (formerly Twitter) and also was in charge of layoffs there, while simultaneously, his wife, Nicole Hollander, oversaw cuts to X's real estate assets, now both have GSA email addresses, per The New York Times reporting.

This is only the second week of this Administration and exactly what the indicted POTUS wanted - chaos.
