This is not about DEI.
Don't distract us: this is about making sure workers get injured more often, that bosses can cut corners more, that everyone suffers more all around.
Are you worried about falling into a conspiracy theory? This is obvious to the naked eye. All their actions are about dismantling our society, our culture, anything that is about protecting someone, having them suffer less, or not starve.
You see this over and over again and yet you call it "botched"

A couple of good reads by people who realize the gravity of the situation. I'm going down to the Department of Labor at 3pm for a protest of the DOGE douchebags who are supposedly going there at 4pm.

That's a good question. I have the good fortune of being at a progressive parish in Atlanta. We talk about these things all the time, no matter who the president is. We have lively discussions in Sunday School and I (a former journalist) often tie sermons into what is going on in the world. I sent Bishop Budde's sermon to the congregation yesterday, and I'm sure it will be a topic of conversation on Sunday. Is your dad open to reading or talking to his priest?
"Brava to Bishop Buddy. And I hope she has good security." In the midst of all the plans to destroy our political civility, this hope rends my heart. That such a woman, a cleric of such obvious gentleness should need protection for having spoken truth to power makes me realize how far we have fallen.
As one of those women priests I have never been prouder of my denomination than I was yesterday. Many of us have been preaching that same sermon for a long time, but until yesterday no one had the chance to preach to that particular congregation. Brava to Bishop Buddy. And I hope she has good security.
