Summary

The Trump administration is facing backlash after reports that the Defense Department flagged over 26,000 images for deletion due to alleged connections to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI).

Among them are photos of trailblazing pilots, including the Tuskegee Airmen and Col. Jeannie Leavitt.

Most controversially, an image of the WWII aircraft Enola Gay was flagged, seemingly because its name includes the word “gay.”

The revelation has sparked mockery online, with critics calling this “the STUPIDEST administration in American history.”

    Good idea! Trump is all in for isolation, and given the track record of the last 6+ weeks … so please do ban transatlantic travel for the USA. As off today is just fine.
