The memo said books about diversity were “promoting divisive concepts and gender ideology” that “are incompatible with the Department’s core mission.” It requires all department leaders to identify books that fall into that category and remove them from military library shelves by May 21.

At that point, the memo says, there will be further instructions on which books will be permanently removed.

This expands a similar purge recently at the Naval Academy library, in Maryland. Last month, civilian Navy officials, following orders originating from Mr. Hegseth, pulled from shelves books including one that critiqued “The Bell Curve,” a 1994 text that argues that Black men and women are genetically less intelligent than white people. But the academy kept “The Bell Curve” itself on its shelves

book bonfire. they even fired the librarian of congress - for keeping books that are harmful to kids. DO THEY FUCKING KNOW WHAT THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS IS

books that say women and non white people are inferior are fine. books that question that premise are out

hesgeth says going forward admission to the service academies will be MERIT-BASED. too bad trump's cabinet isn't MERIT-BASED

did i mention our new surgeon general has no medical degree - she's a health 'influencer'

yeah i'm still upset about this and i don't understand why more people aren't *sigh*

i'm the crazy one but i'm never gonna shut up. i'm glad you guys still tolerate me

after the arrest of newark's mayor yesterday (the son of the poet leroi jones) it's only a matter of time before they try to declare martial law. what's stopping them is mainly that they don't have the military onside. reports indicate the troops loathe hesgeth as much as i do heh. coming from a military family i am not a bit surprised

the purge of trans servicemembers starts this week - and hesgeth has said he wants 20% cuts in 4 star officer corps - i strongly suspect this will be a purge of any female or black officers left. it won't be enough i'm hoping at least i have funds to bail myself and the other old white ladies out of jail



except no one was killed/injured and there was no property damage. is there any way to make people engage their brains before AI destroys objective truth. soon any criticism of the regime will not be tolerated!! good thing they won't find my obscure message board rants web 1.0 ftw

oh gosh i forgot this gem -- linda macmahon, wrestling lady and head of the dept of education, sent a letter to the president of Harvard University, notifying him that the government is cutting off all new federal research grants for the school because of its “consistent violations of its own legal duties,” and adding that Harvard has “made a mockery of this country’s higher education system.”

lol i'd say world wrestling federation president heading the dept of education is considerably more of a mockery. this is the lady who repeatedly pronounced AI as A1 in a staff meeting. she doesn't know what it is but we need it in all classrooms also also also TRUMP UNIVERSITY

in case people don't know linda macmahon is implicated in child sexual abuse, she and her husband paid a lot of money to cover up the fact that they knew about (and joked about!) one of WWE ringboys being sexually abused by a coach. and she is in charge of the dept of education

these people were specifically selected to destroy our federal govt - the dream of conservatives since the civil war

the administration continues to defy court orders to return two men from el salvador and has been blocked from sending east asian immigrants to libya

meanwhile we'll be granting asylum ONLY to the 'horribly abused' white people from south africa - who continue to own 70% of that country 50 years after apartheid

10 years ago this would seem like a terrible joke but it's not funny anymore -- south african billionaires are controlling our government

hey did anyone watch the order (kurzel 2024)??? i must say jude law's grizzly old fbi agent almost made me root for the cops lol

40 years later aryan nations triumphant
