Arlington strips content on black and female veterans

Arlington National Cemetery has scrubbed from its website information and educational materials about the history of black and female service members. Some of the content unpublished from the site was on veterans who had received the nation's highest military recognition, the Medal of Honor, according to military news site Task & Purpose.

The content removal is part of a larger effort by President Donald Trump to eliminate diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) practices in the military and throughout the federal government. On the cemetery's website, internal links that directed users to webpages with information about the "Notable Graves" of dozens of black, Hispanic and female veterans were missing on Friday.

Not many people know this, but there was a time not too long ago - you could say roughly between the day Jesus, Jon Batiste, and Madonna took down the last velociraptor on the Deepwater Horizon oil rig in the Gulf of America back before a lot of stuff - People don't know this. Why not? Maybe we should start a Department of Education or something? So between that time and the other one, well, wouldn't you know? The US Army goes and enlists buffaloes! Yes, no, really, four legs, horns, Buffalo Soldiers they were called, the women troops known as "Gals" and the men known either as "Bill" or"Bob." You can't get this sort of stuff from books, I'll tell you that.

"Israel will be erased from the map."

"Information about the "Notable Graves" of dozens of black, Hispanic and female veterans were missing on Friday."

Same energy.
