Trump Administration cronies have got the formula down. If they want to cancel a legitimate government program or anything else, just label it fraud or DEI.

Hegeseth is any indication. Just call upon one of these demons as the righteous excuse for doing evil, and you will get a Donald Trump Limited Edition Get Out of Jail Free Card from Justice Roberts for the small price of your soul.
