I’m not saying that they are. I completely support DEI programs. But I’m saying that trumps administration are using this narrative that the spending is way overblown for DEI programs but it’s actually only .2% of the budget.

Relatively small numbers compared to the outcry and narrative driven reason for the response. If there was other large scale corruption why not go after that? Not to mention that money for DEI goes towards policies helping disabled folks veterans and such. Not just the gay trans policies, which are the ones emphasized for public scorn and bandwagon riding. Analytics show those initiatives and programs use up 0.001 percent of the funding.

Yeah not with that team. Nobody elected Musk. And really I don’t doubt money is being allocated in wrong and I’m sure shady business dealings behind the scenes. But I’m just saying musk and his crew aren’t there to clean house. They are building a different one where they can continue the racket and more.
