A memo listing all of the clubs eliminated by USMA.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

Same, Mamaw. Same.

Republican "Christians" This Week:

"On Monday, do we have the flags at half-staff to honor a real Christian?"

"Or do we fly them at full-staff to humor a fake Christian?"

ALL: "THE FAKE CHRISTIAN!!!"

What will be your reason for not watching the inauguration?

Mine: "I have absolutely no interest in watching a vulgar, incompetent, lying buffoon being celebrated."

Why are we ignoring the Fourteenth Amendment-Section 3?
