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.

@aaronparnas.bsky.social I apologize if you did cover this, but why is no one talking about how he literally said they rigged the election? Not once, but twice. I haven’t seen anyone talking about this and would love some more insight.
