The Pentagon's anti-DEI purge has flagged tens of thousands of images for deletion, including photos of the Enola Gay... because "Gay".

Job losses spiked a whopping 245% in February.
This is higher than any month since July 2020 (the middle of pandemic) and the highest in any February since the Great Recession of 2009.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

This absurd anti-DEI purge hasn't seemed to hit the medical field in my area yet.

They'll want to tell us they never believed in it, that they didn't agree with don and his golfing buddies wholesale destruction. Bullshit. They love it. They'll always love it. We can never turn our backs on them again. They're not americans, they were just born here.
It'll be like German generals coming out in 1948 about how they stood tall against Hitler ... in their memoirs, when the active players are already dead and gone -- except this time with pissants trying to get sinecure at this or that university.

Actually, I think you would attack him no matter what. Finally common sense has returned.
Did you serve in the military Lek?

Lek is suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome which is that he is refusing to see Trump for what he really is. A few months ago, if people had predicted that Trump would cut off intelligence-sharing with Ukraine, destroy U.S.A.I.D., free all the Jan. 6 convicts, put his lackey Kash Patel in charge of the F.B.I. and turn the US into a despised enemy of Canada, they’d have been accused of unhinged political hatred.
And yet, Lek is pretending like this is all good.
Some other patients who suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome is Scott Bessent, now Donald Trump’s Treasury secretary, who, before the last election, assured The Financial Times that Trump had no interest in reducing international trade and that his threats to impose sweeping, 20 percent tariffs on foreign goods were simply a “maximalist” negotiating position to be watered down during trade talks. “My general view is that at the end of the day, he’s a free trader,” said Bessent.
Or when CNN’s Kaitlan Collins asked Howard Lutnick, now Trump’s commerce secretary, whether Robert F. Kennedy Jr. could become secretary of health and human services, to which he said “Of course not,” treating the question as if it were absurd.
Or when Jeff Bezos said Trump had grown over the past eight years, and I quote “What I’ve seen so far is he is calmer than he was the first time — more confident, more settled.”

^this is the switch that magas do. Criticize policies, actions, statements, etc. and they say "you just hate Trump."
I don't hate anybody. I somewhat agree with the President that the USA should not be the world's enforcers. I abhor his methods and messaging though.
And I think Trump is of vile character, is cruel, and is not smart. But I don't hate the bugger.
Such nuance is lost on magas, though. They want everything to fit in a slogan.

Hate is underrated. I’m not even an American and I hate Donald Trump with the white hot intensity of a thousand burning suns.
