The FBI has gotten the message after the election of President-elect Donald Trump.
The agency closed its office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in December, the month after the presidential election.
In recent weeks, the FBI took steps to close the Office of Diversity and Inclusion (ODI), effective by December 2024,” the agency said to Fox News.
This month Republican Sen. Marsha Blackburn sent a letter to the FBI director claiming that “radical” DEI practices had “endangered” Americans after the terrorist attack in New Orleans on New Year’s Day.
“While the facts surrounding this unconscionable attack continue to emerge, what we know is deeply troubling: the suspect was in possession of weapons, improvised explosive devices, and an ISIS flag. This horrific incident constitutes a blatant act of terror on the American homeland, and the people of our country deserve to know whether federal law enforcement agencies can sufficiently prevent and respond to such incidents,” she said in her letter.
