Trump admin slammed as ‘stupidest’ ever after linking WWII plane ‘Enola Gay’ to DEI
Just to be clear, Enola Gay was the aircraft that dropped an atomic bomb on Japan, not... a member of the LGBTQ+ community.

Summary
The Trump administration is facing backlash after reports that the Defense Department flagged over 26,000 images for deletion due to alleged connections to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI).
Among them are photos of trailblazing pilots, including the Tuskegee Airmen and Col. Jeannie Leavitt.
Most controversially, an image of the WWII aircraft Enola Gay was flagged, seemingly because its name includes the word "gay."
The revelation has sparked mockery online, with critics calling this "the STUPIDEST administration in American history."
Could we demonstrate to him, why the enola gay is famous by dropping another artificial sun on his current location?

"Slammed"
Dear headline writers:
Unless "Slammed" is followed by "into the announcer's table," use a different word.
Thank you.
"To the floor/ground" would also be acceptable IMO..
I guess nuking Japan is woke now
Japan is woke
- someone in DOGE, probably
I can't believe they slammed the Trump administration!! Bravo on the slam!
So far the administration has been slammed, dunked, embarrassed, imploded, rebuked, and many more horrible-sounding synonyms fifty times over! One can only imagine they're on their last leg.
Right, The Humanist Report, The Damage Report, TYT, Bryan Tyler Cohen, Secular Talk, et al.? 🙄
So...
Nixon (corrupt and rotten but did some useful things)
Fold (unelected)
Reagan (jelly beans, stupid phrases, blatant lies)
Bush I (Actually cunning, but did throw up on Japanese Prime Minister)
Bush II (Stupid, bushism )
Trump (Worse than Bush II)
The Republicans are not sending their best.
At this point I don't blame political parties or even individual politicians .... I blame the American people who just keep putting up with this bullshit, justifying it all, half saying they are for it while the other half does nothing ... and all of them saying its someone else's fault.
America is generally just a nation of morons with nuclear weapons at this point.
The Republicans are not sending their best.
They really are...
it's a callback to
“When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”
I miss Bush Sr at this point.
Some, I assume, are good people.
I was going to make a joke that they probably just searched for "gay", and even flagged words that contain "gay" in them, but I couldn't think of or even find such a word that is commonly used. I apologize for failing you, dear reader.
Next they'll ban OMD.
