The US Department of Justice (DOJ) ordered its Civil Rights Division to halt all ongoing litigation from former President Joe Biden’s administration and not pursue new cases or settlements, according to multiple internal memos that were obtained by various media outlets on Wednesday.
Trump had the best performance among minority voters of any President in recent memory. And then:
- One token black cabinet member - in HUD of course, just like last time
- Top priority is deporting Hispanics specifically
- Silences and discussion of diversity/inclusion in federal agencies on threat of firing
- Eliminates ability to do anything about discrimination
- Approves ethnic cleansing of Gaza
- Allies closely with South African who blamed LA wildfires on black firefighters and Boeing’s door problems on racial diversity
I think we need to be unafraid to say the truth. Trump is definitely, obviously racist. Yes, people do get accused of being racist unfairly. Trump is not one of them.
I hate it when government agencies are named sarcastically…
Like the Ministry of Truth and the Ministry of Peace.
I wonder how this will turn out. There are many laws on the books where individuals can’t file lawsuits, only the government can. But if the government has flat out refused to address the entire swath of issues, that might change standing for the victims. It’s one thing to say that people should contact the feds and ask the feds to pursue the issues, but when that’s a guaranteed impossibility, I think the conditions on the ground change, legally.
Because we just let them. We do nothing. Now they have complete control of the government, and options are… pretty singular.
