On Monday, Trump issued an executive order terminating "illegal DEI and 'diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility' (DEIA) mandates, policies, programs, preferences, and activities in the Federal Government, under whatever name they appear."

Accessibility includes things like curb slopes/cuts that able people use.

A lot that was originally part of the ADA passed by President George H. W. Bush.

US Defense Department contract 'inaccurately represented' on social media, says Thomson Reuters

Quote
"Thomson Reuters issued its statement after Tesla CEO Musk, opens new tab, Trump,, opens new tab the Hungarian government and Russian state media accused the company on social media of being paid by the U.S. government to play a role in "large scale social deception."'

'
Quote
The contract in question was a four-year, $9 million award, beginning in 2018 during Trump's first term and ending in 2022, between the U.S. Department of Defense and a division of the Toronto-based content and technology company called Thomson Reuters Special Services (TRSS). The contract was intended to protect the U.S. government from social engineering, which is a form of cyber threat in which people are tricked into divulging sensitive information."

Quote
Spokesperson Tabatha Thompson of the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, or DARPA, opens new tab, the research and development arm of the U.S. military, which funded the contract, said, "Thomson Reuters Special Services (TRSS) was competitively selected to serve as the evaluator to test the defensive tools. ... They (Thomson Reuters) assessed the effectiveness of our defensive tools."

Trump demanded that Reuters repay the U.S. government in a Truth Social post on Thursday morning: "DOGE: Looks like Radical Left Reuters was paid $9,000,000 by the Department of Defense to study 'large scale social deception.' GIVE BACK THE MONEY, NOW!"

The level of incompetence is stunning..

After 'accidentally' firing nuclear safety experts, they are trying to reinstate them. Trouble is, they can't find their contact information..

some dude at swim practice today, the subject of Musk came up, and he goes into a rant about how Musk and Trump are getting rid of the crooks, in the end they'll both be up on Mt Rushmore...

I said "well, clearly we have some differentials on policy here, but Rushmore currently has the Father of our Country, the guy who wrote the Declaration of Independence, and the guy who shepherded the Country through the Civil War. Teddy Roosevelt is a bit of a puzzling choice, but what you're saying is like saying Tim Tebow belongs in the Hall of Fame because he won that one playoff game that one time"

Yeah they knocked it out of the park in NC a few months ago.

They needed the money to house illegal immigrants.

Noem clawed some of it back...100 million from NYC. They were using it to house murderers, rapists, terrorists, and juvenile delinquents in luxury hotels.

This pretty much confirms every thing I have read.

Utter incompetence. Elmo bulldozing  vital services. Trump is clueless. Efforts underway to undo some of Elmo's damage.
