WASHINGTON — The Defense Department's intelligence agency has paused observances of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Pride Month, Holocaust Days of Remembrance and other cultural or historical annual events in response to President Donald Trump’s ban on diversity, equity and inclusion programs in the federal workplace.

The instructions were published Tuesday in a Defense Intelligence Agency memo obtained by The Associated Press and affect 11 annual events, including Black History Month, which begins Saturday, and National Hispanic Heritage Month.

----------------

What makes the USA safer?


a) the DOD spending a bazilion labor hours planing, promoting, and participating in these cultural events; or

b) Spending that same bazililion hours in training and preparedness for foreign operations already underway or that may be deployed on a moments notice, adapting and becoming proficient in new weapons and other technologies as they are deployed, and so on. ie the mission critical stuff, not the virtue signaling stuff.

Convince me that a) is the better investment of the DOD's time and focus.
