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.”

    Unrelated, but I have always hated how they use roman numerals for Super Bowls. I can convert roman numerals to arabic but I never feel like actually doing so, so whenever I read something about a particular game I never really know which one they’re talking about. Even if they used arabic, it still wouldn’t be as useful as just knowing what year it was.
