Slimeballs at ATF caught deploying sneaky tactic to get around Trump's anti-woke purge

[Mail] The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives appeared to try and avoid Donald Trump's anti-DEI executive order by switching the job title of its Chief Diversity Officer.

On Tuesday, Trump's administration ordered federal agencies to place all Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) hires on paid leave pending review and warned authorities not to use 'coded or imprecise language' to circumvent the move.

But within a day of the order being announced, eagle-eyed online sleuths noticed the ATF's Chief Diversity Officer Lisa T. Boykin had a new job title, appearing to have been updated to 'Senior Executive.'

The ATF did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the claim it tried to go around Trump's executive order.

The move came after Trump signed an executive order on Monday within hours of being sworn-in that aimed to eradicate all DEI programs within the federal government.

The next day, the White House released a memo to federal agencies ordering them to not only place all DEI hires on paid leave by 5pm Wednesday, but to quickly form plans to fire every one of them.

In a letter first obtained by CBS News, the agencies were ordered to 'take prompt actions' against all DEI departments, with all employees warned to report 'any efforts to disguise these programs by using coded or imprecise language' - or risk 'adverse consequences.'

Monday's order was one of a raft of executive orders Trump moved quickly on, also including withdrawing the US from the World Health Organization, ordering all federal employees return to in-person work, and rescinding 78 Biden-era executive orders.

#2 And that's the thing about DEI hires, they thought this was clever. Its about as clever as a child with chocolate crumbs all over its face denying anything to do with the cookie jar.

Attending a top leadership conference for the ATF must be like watching an episode of The Acolyte.

#5 What did we do before the ATF was created in 1972? Whatever it was, do it again.

#6 The EO was specific and not followed. Accountability should follow swiftly.
