A US State Department cable, obtained by Reuters, shows “all training programs for employees related to diversity and inclusion” have been halted after President Trump directed the federal agency in September to end the programs.
“Beginning Friday, October 23, 2020, the Department is temporarily pausing all training programs related to diversity and inclusion in accordance with Executive Order … on Combating Race and Sex Stereotyping,” the cable said.
“The pause will allow time for the Department and Office of Personnel Management (OPM) to review program content,” it said.
Reuters said the order comes nearly two months after a White House Office of Management and Budget’s memo advised federal agencies that taxpayer dollars were no longer allowed to fund “un-American propaganda sessions” that taught critical race theory, white privilege, and or “taught that the United States is an inherently racist or evil” country.
Having been forced to attend and participate in this type of training for the past decade (plus), I can attest to the farce that it is. The hard questions are never asked and the statistics that represent reality are glossed over in favor of forced outcome (also known as Affirmative Action)!
It was interesting to see the management that immediately complied with this directive as opposed to those that continued it in defiance…they were called out and hopefully will be encouraged to seek employment elsewhere!
Northwest Woodsman: My admiration for this president knows no bounds. I don’t agree with him 100% but it is getting close. Since I am to the right of Attila the Hun, and admire Vlad the Impaler, it would be difficult for any one to satisfy my philosophy regarding incompetent and corrupt politicians.
About time. I resent my tax dollars being used against our country.
Why should we be dumbed down to their level
I retired after many years of enjoyable employment. The one thing I don’t miss is going to a seminar and have someone tell me how to speak to others. How to treat others. How to act toward others. How to think about others and how to carry myself. After years of good service it’s time to change my habits to suit others. A bit late when I’m look to walk out the door. Thank you once more President Donald J. Trump
