Trump Reverses DEI Policies, Exacerbates Public Harm

President Donald Trump declared the end of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) during his recent State of the Union and has rolled back related policies, prompting operational disruptions this week. The partial government shutdown and administration actions produced five- to six-hour airport waits, more than 450 TSA officers quitting, ICE deployed to 13 airports, and a ChatGPT flag led to canceling a six-figure DEI grant.
