The Trump administration is suspending all U.S. Interior Department grants to Maine, due to discriminatory sex-based quotas from the state’s Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife.
“The MDIFW’s policy discriminates in the composition of hiring panels by requiring a quota based on sex,” a letter from U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Regional Director Paul Souza to MDIFW Commissioner Judy Camuso said, as first reported by The Maine Wire.
The letter, dated Thursday, told Camuso that all federal grant funding to MDIFW will stop by May 15.
Trump plans to enact a travel ban from Sudan, Angola, and Somalia. Sudan is 90% Islamic, Angola is a Marxist country, an Somalia is 97% Islamic. The people coming from those countries are NOT fleeing cause they dislike Islam or Marxism – instead they are coming to Maine to promote it.
Janet Mills & the Democrat Socialists have purposely picked these countries to pipeline in “New Mainers”. They are not asylum seekers. We’ve exposed countless social media accounts of these foreigners casually going back home to visit friends & family. You cannot flee from a country & then go visit it for vacation.
There are plenty of Christians in Africa that are being hunted down. There are Cubans & good Venezuelans that are fleeing their communist countries. The Democrats ignore those ones & the Biden administration even blocked many of them from coming in.
They are purposely bringing in cultures that are diametrically opposed to the local culture to create a permanent voting bloc, single part rules, to disrupt Christian values, and worse.
This is not a theory, it’s their playbook. The Democrat Socialists pulled it off in UK/Europe successfully.
The latest newly hired probationary federal workers hit with a wave of layoffs is the Central Intelligence Agency.
CIA officers hired within the last two years are being summoned to off-site locations, fired and forced to surrender their badges to security personnel, three people briefing on the layoffs told The New York Times.
CIA under Director John Ratcliffe wasted no time getting to work on trimming down their workforce under Trump’s orders.
The reduction in CIA workforce came after a judge cleared the way for Ratcliffe to fire employees at will.
Judge Anthony J. Trenga of the Eastern District of Virginia ruled on a lawsuit brought by CIA officers who were assigned to the diversity and recruiting efforts under the previous administration.
They were removed under Trump’s order to get rid of any diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs or department within the federal government.
But Judge Trenga’a ruling was sweeping and gave Director Ratcliffe the power to remove any CIA officer for any reason – without giving them a right of appeal.
Nearly 30 percent of Maine’s government-run school districts will conceal children’s health information from parents as it relates to gender dysphoria or transgender treatments, often described by LGBTQ advocates as “gender affirming care.”
“Maine is a state that has gone all in on gender ideology in K-12 schools,” Erika Sanzi, director of outreach for PDE, told The Federalist. “We see it in these policies to knowingly withhold information from parents about their own child’s gender identity at school and we see it in the governor’s insistence that males be allowed to participate and compete in girls’ sports. It’s all indefensible as well as wildly unpopular among voters, regardless of their political party.”
The pilot responsible for crashing a Delta plane upside down at the Toronto Pearson International Airport on February 17, 2025, has been identified as 26-year-old First Officer Kendal Swanson.
A beauty pageant winner from Minnesota, Swanson had only completed her training in April and had logged fewer than 1,500 flight hours at the time of the incident.
The more experienced captain, James Henneman, was managing communications during the crash while Swanson piloted.
No one should want to be put in a job they are not able to do. Swanson should not have wanted this and should have refused to attempt the landing, especially considering the stormy conditions. DEI fails at every level. And it especially fails at the level of the person who is promoted above their skill level. Swanson got lucky as no one died but the risk she took should be a warning to her for the rest of her life and to all of us that ideologies like DEI are not just stupid and wrong but extremely dangerous. Under Biden and his ilk we have been betting our entire nation and civilization on DEI. That kind of thinking must go. We will destroy USA and the West if we persist and then, even immigrants will have nowhere to go. ABN
UPDATE: Thanks to pimacanyon for providing the video below in his comment, which is well-worth reading. The video is a sort of rebuttal of my post above, which I am going to leave up since the public has a right to know what happened and if they don’t tell us even the basics, we are going to talk anyway. If Swanson didn’t land the plane, who did? If she was ‘qualified’ in some way or other, she was also only minimally experienced, so why did the pilot have her land the plane in such bad weather? I have seen a video analysis of the landing which claims whoever landed the plane failed to do a mandatory maneuver, which raises the plane’s nose, thus causing the aircraft to slam onto to the runway and overturn. When was the last time we saw a plane slam onto a runway and overturn like that? ABN
Besides the obvious, DEI has also been widely used to create mini-fiefdoms, where the family and friends of socialist autocrats get all the jobs, all the NGO grants, and ruin whatever they touch. It happens at local, state, and federal levels in all major institutions. ABN
President Donald Trump is keeping his promise to eliminate government diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs by now banning the practice from the military.
Trump plans to sign two executive orders this week that will both eliminate DEI from the military and prohibit transgender people from the services, DailyMail.com confirmed.
He already signed an executive order on his first day in office last week reversing Joe Biden‘s 2021 directive allowing transgender people to serve in the military.
A new order will go even further and lay out new military standards regarding pronoun usage and gender identity.
It also directly bans transgender troops from serving in the U.S. military.
Trump has already taken several actions seeking to outlaw DEI initiatives in the federal government.
The practices require that certain protected groups – like minorities, women and those with disabilities – be prioritized for job placement.
The LA Fire Dept is a vivid example of how wrong and dangerous DEI policies are. Academia is another. The compass of the Western world is swinging all over the place. But it’s easy to correct. Just set your aim on reality. It should never be the government’s job to legally require us to associate with anyone (a lamentable lapse in the First Amendment), but to force us to work with incompetent hires is to endanger all of us while also causing social and intellectual standards to sink like a stone. Import the third world, become the third world. Promote the incompetent, expect disaster. ABN
