Patriot Brief

  • What Happened: A U.S. Appeals Court vacated an activist judge's injunction that halted President Trump's executive order eliminating DEI programs in the federal government.
  • Why It Matters: Trump is now free to fire any and all DEI hires that plague the executive branch without legal obstruction.
  • Bottom Line: This is a massive victory for the president's efforts to restore merit-based hiring in federal agencies.

President Donald Trump just scored a massive victory in his war against woke bureaucracy.

A U.S. Appeals Court vacated an activist judge's injunction that had been blocking Trump's executive order gutting DEI programs in the federal government. That means the president is now free to fire any and all DEI hires plaguing the executive branch.

This is exactly what Americans voted for. They are sick and tired of watching their tax dollars fund discrimination dressed up as diversity. They are done with federal agencies more worried about pronouns than performance. And they elected Trump to put an end to it.

DEI programs have turned the federal government into a hiring hall for activists instead of a meritocracy. Qualified candidates have been passed over in favor of people who check the right boxes. Entire departments have been infected with ideology that puts identity politics ahead of competence.

Trump issued an executive order to wipe it all out. He wanted to restore merit-based hiring and fire the people whose only job is pushing woke nonsense. But an activist judge stepped in and blocked him with an injunction, protecting the very bureaucrats Americans elected Trump to remove.

Now the Appeals Court has stepped in and said enough is enough. The injunction is vacated. Trump is free to clean house.

This is what draining the swamp looks like. The federal government has been filled with people who hate America, hate merit, and hate anyone who disagrees with their woke ideology. They have been protected by judges who care more about activism than the law.

Not anymore. Trump has the green light to fire every single DEI hire that does not belong in the executive branch. And he should do it immediately.

Americans did not elect a president to manage decline. They elected him to restore excellence. That means getting rid of the people who turned federal agencies into diversity seminars and replacing them with people who can actually do the job.

The swamp is about to get a whole lot smaller.
