Description

Target has announced it will roll back its diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs, joining companies like Walmart and McDonald's in scaling back such initiatives amid increasing political and social pressure. Shifting political dynamics, including conservative opposition to DEI policies and the 2023 Supreme Court ruling against affirmative action in education, have prompted many corporations to reassess their commitments, AP News reported. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the likely death knell for DEI that Trump’s election represented, as well as the companies like Costco and Delta Airlines that remain steadfast in their support.

If you don't get rid of all the people still employed who have been pushing DEI, then I'm sorry but DEI isn't going anywhere.

Unless they identify and turf out all the current DEI hires, nothing will change because all the wrong people will keep on hiring all the wrong people

I was forced to go to a DEI seminar a year before I retired. All I could think of during this was "how long until we get sent to re-education camps". Talk about an insane waste of government money (I was a local govt worker). I do NOT miss it.

DEI = BRIDGE. They're just changing the language and hoping people won't notice.

Meanwhile, here in the UK, the government is pushing for MORE DEI initiatives. 😢
