Let me help you. 

In removing DEI from the government, the administration has removed obstacles such as set asides such as requiring a certain number of contractors or minimum of anything. So they can’t hold contracts for certain people or companies  

That has been taken to mean in this political opinion piece, that we can now return to segregated lunch counters.

 When the article brought up that the Civil Rights Act was still in place and discrimination is against the law, the response was….. “The Civil Rights Act of 1964 still bars discrimination, and segregated facilities, in the United States. But civil rights groups have feared that Mr. Trump’s war on D.E.I. programs has signaled the federal government’s willingness to retreat from enforcing it”.

So… we fear that something may happen.

Nothing has happened and nothing has been proposed.

But by golly, we know that he has something up his sleeve!!!

It is more meaningless dribble. It is an, “in our opinion” piece. 

More hard core journalism. 🤣
