Law BREAKING: Trump orders all federal DEI employees to be put on paid leave.

If he did what you suggested then nothing would change. You still gotta meet hiring requirements even as a diversity hire.

I understand but having gone through multiple government hiring processes (federal, state, county, city, etc) you can be on a hiring list but never get hired because there are many more candidates ahead of you who did better. DEI allowed some lesser qualified candidates to get hired ahead of people who scored better.

I make no judgements whether DEI was a good or bad method for hiring(diversity does have a certain value in of itself and there are often jobs that require soft skill sets which may not get represented in testing) I am merely stating that many government agencies were hiring people who 'passed' but scored quite low on the hiring lists. Some measures make sense such as veterans receiving extra points and can score beyond 100%. I had been #1 on a couple different hiring lists and there were candidates with preference points who got hired ahead of me. It wasn't a big deal to me.
 
That is what he did, and the DEI officers are who he's firing. The memo he sent to agencies gives them 10 days to submit a written plan for closing all DEI related programs and initiatives and firing those employees.

Being sent home on paid leave is not firing them.

They will literally be sitting home doing nothing and collecting a salary.

Many federal agency positions have union contracts so it's not so easy to fire them. Usually the only people who can be easily replaced for nebulous reasons like loss of trust are department or government heads(managers,etc).
 
Oh for fuck sake... did anyone actually watch the video? or just read the misleading title and went full retard?

They are not getting rid of any DEI hires, they are getting rid of the people running DEI programs, maintaining DEI websites and training courses, as well as axing the external contractors that are consulting on these bullshit DEI initiatives :rolleyes:

Lol well that's a petty dishonest thread title from TS in that case.

Fair enough

They weren't "sent home", most of these sham jobs were sitting at home collecting a salary in the first place, and now they have 10 days to end those positions.



The memo, issued Tuesday to heads of departments and agencies, sets a deadline of no later than 5 p.m. ET Wednesday to inform the employees that they will be put on paid administrative leave as the agencies prepare to close all DEI-related offices and programs and to remove all websites and social media accounts for such offices.


It also asks federal agencies to submit a written plan by Jan. 31 for dismissing the employees.
 
i don't personally care. he could pay every government employee right now to take a whole week off. they probably deserve it. you agree right?
If the entire government can take a whole week off and nobody notices, that's a pretty solid argument for being severely bloated and overstaffed, and that paid week off should probably be their last.

so you disapprove of trump's order then
 
How do they know who are DEI hires? Are they simply going to get rid all minorities and women?

They're getting rid of staff that are in charge of DEI policies - not women or minorities. So a Director of Inclusivity and BS jobs like that.
 
real jobs like???
Something useful. How about they are reassigned to process paperwork from all the people being deported... they'll love that LOL

Or knowing the kinds of useless cunts that work in that area, all they'll be qualified for is cleaning the toilets... and they'll probably fuck even that up.

...while their sections, teams and positions are removed. What do you think happens to them after their positions are made redundant?

It's not firing them if their positions no longer exist. Just reassign them elsewhere and if they refuse to do the new job, then you can sack them.
