The U.S. State Department said on Sunday it has suspended employee training programs related to diversity and inclusion, confirming a Reuters exclusive a day before, but affirmed its commitment to fostering a more diverse workplace.

An internal State Department cable obtained by Reuters on Saturday showed the temporary pause came after President Donald Trump’s executive order a month ago, directing federal agencies to end programs deemed ‘divisive’ by the White House.

The executive order forbid the teaching by federal agencies of “divisive concepts” including that the United States is “fundamentally racist or sexist.” “As an Executive Branch Agency, the Department of State complies with all Executive Orders,” a State Department spokesman said in an email. “The E.O. requires the Office of Personnel Management to review diversity and inclusion trainings to ensure compliance, and the Department to ensure trainings, workshops, and forums do not contain “divisive concepts,” he said.The training suspension came less than two weeks before the Nov. 3 U.S. presidential election, in which the debate about racial injustice in the United States has been fueled by police killings of Black Americans that sparked nationwide protests over the summer.

During the first debate with his Democratic rival Joe Biden, Trump defended his executive order saying the training programs were teaching people “very bad ideas.”

Not like the undecided voters, confused undecided voters😂😂😂😂😂

Timely... one week away, ‘keep your messaging, abrasiveness and aggressive tactics on point. ‘

Absolutely ridiculous.

Good

So, despite racism, killer cops, murders of trans people, viole t misogyny, Islamaphobia, xenophobia, DIVERSITY training is NOT necessitated, BUT, they’re committed to diversity? [pause] BAWHAWHAWHAWHAW! [inhale deeply] HAHAHAHAHA!!!!! What a fucking OXYMORON!!

The people that need it most are running the state- not surprising that they are moving forward with their anti-diversity agenda.

Don’t worry the entire country will pause - no work - everyone stay at home in your basement like Joe.

Expanded racism from Trump.

Reject the Intersectional Caste System, which privileges “victimhood” status. You can either have equal treatment or special treatment—but not both. Expose the Intersectional Marxists for the frauds they are, America. They’re racist and divisive AF.

Conclusion. So what’s up?

Why have election laws and election safeguards when some random judge is just going to throw them out for no valid reason other than feelings? And suddenly my poker game greatly improved. After they mentioned that gentleman never asks to show the cards... So I can fill out anyone’s ballot and scribble something for a signature? What could possible happen 🤔
