“Donald Trump’s first two weeks in the White House have followed Bannon’s strategy like a script. The flood is the point. The overwhelm is the point. The message wasn’t in any one executive order or announcement. It was in the cumulative effect of all of them.”

In the corporate world, DEI is not affirmative action. It is erasing policies that drive away some of our best employees because they feel they don't belong or won't be able to advance their career because they fall into a minority group. Now, "DEI" has become code for not white, male and straight.
