Trump Attacks Diversity Programs and Targets Migrant Supportive Church Leader

Recent Developments in the US Administration

The US President has made significant changes to the diversity program, placing employees on paid leave as of Wednesday night. This move was announced by White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt on the social network X. The decision affects employees working in the Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (DEIA) offices, who will receive paid administrative leave with immediate effect.

The federal office of personnel management confirmed this development, stating that the administration is taking action to close or terminate all DEIA initiatives, offices, and programs. This announcement has sparked concerns among affected employees and raises questions about the future of diversity programs in the US.

Actions Against Former Administration Officials

In addition to the changes in the diversity program, the President has requested the dismissal of over 1,000 officials from the previous Democratic administration. This move is seen as an attempt to assert control and align the administration with the current President’s vision. The President has already “fired” four individuals, including former Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces Mark Milley and Admiral Linda Fagan, who was appointed by Joe Biden to head the United States Coast Guard.

The administration has also withdrawn police protection from John Bolton, former White House National Security Advisor, who has become a vocal critic. Furthermore, the President has defended his decision to pardon or commute the sentences of individuals convicted of attacking the Capitol on January 6, 2021.

Criticisms and Controversies

The President’s actions have been met with criticism, particularly from Bishop Mariann Budde of Washington, who delivered a sermon about the fear sown by the President among migrants and members of the LGBTQ community. The President responded by attacking the bishop, calling her a “left-wing radical” who hates him. The exchange highlights the deep divisions and controversies surrounding the President’s policies and actions.
