Donald Trump and many in his orbit loathe programs that fall under the heading of diversity, equity and inclusion.

DEI has become a catchall pejorative among many conservatives for any program or policy seeking to provide equal access for people of colour, women, the LGBTQ+ community or other marginalized groups.

Trump has ordered all federal DEI programs shut down a few hours after taking office.

Conservatives have accused DEI programs of reflecting a “managerialist left-wing race and gender ideology” The term has become a cultural buzzword that instantly identifies a speaker’s worldview.

A growing list of companies recently joined by Target have curtailed their DEI programs in the wake of Trump ’s victory, in many cases.

The backlash is in many ways being completed by Trump 's ascent.

A preliminary report obtained by The Post showed that the outpost monitoring the airspace around Reagan National Airport was understaffed when the collision occurred.
