Federal health workers terrified after 'DEI' website publishes list of 'targets'
www.nbcnews.com
The site calls out workers who have been involved with DEI initiatives. A majority are Black.

Summary

Federal health workers are alarmed after the “DEI Watch List” website published names, photos, and salaries of employees, mainly Black, labeling them “targets” for involvement in diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives.

The conservative American Accountability Foundation runs the site, which has sparked fears of doxxing and intimidation.

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) recently issued memos demanding an end to DEI-related work, escalating paranoia. Some staff have been placed on leave.

    People are looking the other way as this is happening. What if camps are built to more efficiently process those involved, will anyone oppose it? I do not know if it will happen again but what this all shows is how it could and how readily people fall in line.

      Every single post or mention I see that’s critical of Trump’s mass deportation actions is followed immediately with ‘‘they are criminals, they broke the law’’ they are ready for all levels of genocide and there’s plenty of sensible kick the can democrats who are ALSO ready to not care when this happens. After all. They broke the law.

        They “broke a law” by commiting a civil offense like speeding or not renewing your cars registration. Which is usually followed by a fine and an order to get your papers in order.

        We typically need those people here illegally because they’re contributing to the economy. Way more often than not they pay taxes, but collect no benefits. So the best path forward is really basically to offer citizenship to anyone who is employed, residing here and has been paying taxes for X period of time.

          They view this comment as they view their Bible they closely hold to their heart as they spew hate and ignorance across the entire populace.

            I believe you could make an argument that those words are the highest ever spoken by humanity, the closest we have come to the Divine. I would not want those that felt that then to know how we speak today.
