One of the very first things that President Trump did upon assuming the office once again

was to sign an executive order ending all DEI programs within the federal government.

This directly undid something that Joe Biden put in place on his first day in office.

You see, all the way back on January 20th of 2021, one of Joe Biden's first actions was to sign executive order 13-985

America as well as in the government, the end result was exactly what you'd expect.

An example of what the end result looked like was this report here, showing that corporate America as well as in the government, the end result was exactly what you'd expect. An example of what the end result looked like was this report here, showing that corporate

America overwhelmingly hired people of color. In 2021, out of the 300,000 new jobs that were

added in Fortune 100 companies, 94% went to people of color. Likewise, you had this other report right here, which came out of the

Bureau of Labor Statistics showing that by 2023, American-born workers had lost more than 1.3 million

jobs, while foreign-born workers gained 1.2 million jobs during that very same period of time.
