Summary
Attorney General Pam Bondi has ordered the DOJ to investigate private companies for DEI programs, potentially pursuing criminal charges.
Citing the 2023 Supreme Court ruling against affirmative action, she argues DEI initiatives violate anti-discrimination laws. The directive targets large corporations, nonprofits, and universities, with reports due by March 1.
Legal experts warn this move likely violates First Amendment protections, as courts have upheld employers’ rights to promote diversity.
Civil rights groups are expected to challenge the policy, setting up a major legal battle for the administration.

Being a woman she should probably fire herself then.
Yeah, she’s looking a little bit “DEI” herself, there.
“she argues DEI initiatives violate anti-discrimination laws.”
Up is down, wrong is right, black is white.
God I hate this country
We now live in a giving country where White makes right.
Well as long as your male.
My attitude at this point is that the US is getting what it deserves, you want to be as racist as possible? OK, enjoy your destroyed economy, lost civil rights, and felon president who’s just white enough to steal all your tax revenue.
There are a lot of people living in the united states who don’t deserve to deal with this racist bullshit.
Certainly. But an awful lot of these people stayed at home during the last election.
And an awful lot of them voted FOR this. I am marrying into an Hispanic family with some people who voted for Trump… who were then surprised when they were fired from their jobs immediately after he announced the DEI orders.
Oh, well, fuck them.
Racist, misogynistic, and ableist.
Indeed. Most of us either voted directly against it, sat out, or voted for some useless third party. And as infuriating as the second two groups are - most people did not actively vote FOR this shit.
And then there are the people that are ineligible to vote like kids, who definitely don’t deserve this shit.
Please do not forget that republicans have been actively disenfranchising voters and making it hard to vote. Not everyone who didn’t vote “sat out”; they were literally unable to vote.
Oh yes, I fully realize that.
I’m aware. I’m one of the people they want to ethnicly clense.
The people it affects most are the ones who majority voted against him
Billionaires bought the election; enough propaganda, both via manipulated social media platforms and marketing in swing states, can buy anyone willing to be the stooge of private interests the presidency.
Most Americans don’t deserve to suffer at the hands at such corruption.
War is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength.
Blessed are the silent
policies relating to “diversity, equity, and inclusion” (“DEi”) and “diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility” (“DEIA”) “violate the text and spirit of our longstanding Federal civil-rights laws” and “undermine our national unity.”
Thank God for Lemmy. Reading this made me feel like I was taking crazy pills until seeing your guys’s comments. These people are straight up going full 1984 “The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”
Not discriminating against brown ppl is discrimination against whites!
“When you’re accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression.”
Translation: Pam Bondi gets in line to lick Trump’s ass
She has to have already been doing so since she’s got the job.
For what? It’s not fucking illegal! Fuck!
Well, it also was not illegal for the FBI to investigate J6, or the crimes that donvict carried out, etc…but here we fucking are.
I know… I’m just frustrated…
Correction: It’s not immoral or unjust. Apparently though in the US it is now illegal. Bad laws can be made. I do have to question whether the DoJ can go after people without said law in place…I mean they seemingly are about to, but congressional bodies make the federal and state laws, so what law is being broken?
Except those laws have not yet been made. So it still remains not illegal.
If you’re going to be pedantic, at least be right.
Well ain’t that just a little fascist and Nazi adjacent.
What do you think the chances are that she’ll start with any one of these beauties:
1 Timothy 2:9-15
Likewise also that women should adorn themselves in respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly attire, but with what is proper for women who profess godliness—with good works. Let a woman learn quietly with all submissiveness
1 Timothy 2:12-13
I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet. For Adam was formed first, then Eve
1 Corinthians 14:34-35
The women should keep silent in the churches. For they are not permitted to speak, but should be in submission, as the Law also says. If there is anything they desire to learn, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is shameful for a woman to speak in church.
Man, you guys are going to have to fight to get your rights back.
And I don’t mean campaigning. You need to stock up on staples and ammo…
Oh look… An actual weaponized DOJ. Projection of drumps goals strikes again.
With the qons, it is always projection.
Always.
Thank fuck they’re doing something about egg prices.
I hope they find who keeps hiring all the chickens to work in the judicial department, so they can send them back to the farm.
You voted for a guy who said he’d be a dictator. Now he’s a dictator doing dictator things. His not doing dictator things would be surprising, not this.
They want to criminally investigate private companies for setting their own policies? Real small government and pro business of them. /s
No, they just need a reason to investigate any business they want without legal reasons.
This guy with 34 felony counts doesn’t seem to know the law, what exactly is illegal? Eh, I guess it doesnt matter anymore, nobody is going to do anything about it until things get physical now.
And if you get physical for the right side, you’ll get a pardon. See J6, Daniel Perry, etc.
Edit: spelling
What if her employer was ‘guilty’ of that. Would she lose her job if she were employed because of DEI?
In violation of what law? Lol. Investigate away, dipshits.
It’s remarkable how rich white guys have co-opted laws that protect against discrimination of minorities to protect themselves from minorities. Almost brilliant in its mendacity, and depressing that the courts will absolutely support it.
