The US defense department webpage celebrating an army general who served in the Vietnam war and was awarded the country’s highest military decoration has been removed and the letters “DEI” added to the site’s address.
On Saturday, US army Maj Gen Charles Calvin Rogers’s Medal of Honor webpage led to a “404” error message. The URL was also changed, with the word “medal” changed to “deimedal”.

Rogers, who was awarded the Medal of Honor by then president Richard Nixon in 1970, served in the Vietnam war, where he was wounded three times while leading the defense of a base.
According to the West Virginia military hall of fame, Rogers was the highest-ranking African American to receive the medal. After his death in 1990, Rogers’s remains were buried at the Arlington national cemetery in Washington DC, and in 1999 a bridge in Fayette county, where Rogers was born, was renamed the Charles C Rogers Bridge.

I blame Uncommitted Voters, progressives, latino Trumpers and the ppl who just sat at home, 3rd party voters for allowing Trump to get back in KNOWING he would set his sights on destroying black people in this country. That’s why I look at any black person who sympathizes with any of these ANTI BLACK groups as a clown.

And the education of an 11th grade dropout from Alabama.

Always the least informed and least formally educated "brehs" controlling the narrative that they are the pinnacle of the Black experience and how "tough" they are

An article about the baseball great Jackie Robinson's time in the Army has been removed from the Department of Defense's website.

The new webpage URL, now adding "dei" to the link, shows a "404 - Page Not Found" error, implying the change is connected to President Donald Trump's executive order on diversity, equity, and inclusion.
