Trump Cancels Black History Month at Federal Agency, Whistleblower Lawyer Reports
[NOTE: “We are aware of efforts by some in government,” said Trump administration emails sent to government employees, according to
NBC News, “to disguise these programs by using coded or imprecise language.]
Commenting on the developments, Zaid wrote: “It goes beyond what happened at DHS & NASA today.
CIA employees were told all resource & affinity groups are canceled. No black history month or MLK celebration, or any other ethnic recognition months. DEI folks are to be fired rather than allowed to rotate to former offices.”
Zaid reported: “CIA is also apparently banning lanyards that have to do with affinity groups. Women’s Council had to take down website & cancel all events, incl women’s history month. They are also compiling lists of members within affinity groups.”
Zaid added sardonically:
“Because that’s not reminiscent of 1930s” — an apparent reference to similar orders issued by autocratic rulers during the rise of fascism in Europe during the fateful decade leading to the Second World War.

Adam Bear replied to Zaid:
“It’s almost some vile form of a fast and easy way of trashing governance from the inside out.”
