According to a new memo from the Office of Personn

According to a new memo from the Office of Personnel Management, the Trump administration is mandating that all federal employees in diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) roles be placed on paid leave by Wednesday evening.⁠
⁠
The memo, sent to department and agency heads on Tuesday, instructs them to inform affected employees by 5 p.m. ET on Wednesday that they will be put on paid administrative leave. Federal agencies are set to close all DEI-related offices and programs and shut down related websites and social media accounts. Agencies must also submit a written plan by January 31 for terminating these employees.⁠
⁠
On Monday, President #DonaldTrump signed an executive order to eliminate what he called “radical and wasteful” DEI programs across federal agencies, directing the closure of DEI offices and initiatives.⁠
⁠
#WhiteHouse press secretary Karoline Leavitt emphasized that President Trump’s campaign promise to end the spread of #DEI within the federal government was being fulfilled. She added that the goal is to create a merit-based society where hiring decisions are based on skills, not race. "This is another win for Americans of all races, religions, and creeds. Promises made, promises kept," Leavitt said in a statement.⁠
⁠
It is unclear how many employees will be impacted by this order. The American Federation of Government Employees, which represents numerous federal workers, criticized the executive order, calling it a pretext for firing civil servants and undermining the nonpartisan nature of the federal workforce. Everett Kelley, the union’s national president, defended DEI programs, stating that federal hiring is based on merit, with a workforce that reflects the nation's diversity and leads the country in narrowing gender and racial pay gaps.⁠
⁠
In addition, on Tuesday, Trump signed an order challenging diversity-focused hiring practices at the Federal Aviation Administration, arguing that such policies disadvantage qualified individuals who do not meet specific racial or disability criteria.⁠

#BREAKING - On his first full day in office Tuesda

#BREAKING - On his first full day in office Tuesday, President #DonaldTrump took immediate steps to fulfill his campaign promise of #massdeportations, authorizing federal immigration authorities to make arrests in and near schools, churches, and other previously protected areas. The move reverses long-standing policies that designated these locations as “sensitive areas” where enforcement actions were restricted. ⁠
⁠
The Department of Homeland Security confirmed the policy change in a statement, granting #Immigration and Customs Enforcement (#ICE) agents broader authority. “We’re getting them out of the country. We just started that, we’re getting them out of the country and they’re going to be gotten out of the country fast,” Trump said. ⁠
⁠
Acting Homeland Security Secretary #BenjamineHuffman announced the termination of two directives, allowing agents more discretion in arrests and eliminating a legal pathway for certain migrants seeking entry into the United States. ⁠
⁠
“Criminals will no longer be able to hide in America’s schools and churches to avoid arrest. The Trump administration will not tie the hands of our brave law enforcement and instead trusts them to use common sense,” Huffman said. ⁠
⁠
The change sharply contrasts the Trump and Biden administrations. ICE first implemented a policy in 2011 that restricted enforcement in sensitive locations, and the Biden administration later reinforced similar guidelines. Immigrant advocates have voiced concerns that the rollback will create fear in immigrant communities, discouraging children from attending school and deterring people from seeking medical care at hospitals. ⁠

President #Trump has made a bold promise to deport

President #Trump has made a bold promise to deport millions of individuals living in the #UnitedStates without permission. Recent estimates suggest that nearly 14 million people in the U.S. either lack legal status or have temporary protection from #deportation. This group is commonly referred to as "undocumented," "unauthorized," or "illegal," but these terms are not entirely accurate. ⁠
⁠
While the terms "undocumented" and "illegal" are widely used, a significant portion of this population is actually in the U.S. with temporary permissions permissions that, unfortunately, are set to expire during Trump’s term in office. ⁠
⁠
To better understand this issue, the @NYTimes compared estimates from various research organizations and federal agencies with recent administrative data. Their investigation sheds light on who these immigrants are, how they arrived in the U.S., and which groups may be most vulnerable to deportation under President Trump’s #immigration policies. #lunionsuite #haitianamerican #haitian #caribbean

#Haitian DJ and producer #MichaelBrun and dancehal

#Haitian DJ and producer #MichaelBrun and dancehall legend #BeenieMan were spotted filming the music video for their highly anticipated track "Touchdown." The upcoming song featuring #JBalvin, #BountyKiller, and #Tasan has generated buzz since Brun teased the project on social media. 🇭🇹🇨🇴🇯🇲🇬🇾⁠
⁠
A few days ago, Brun announced the track on Instagram and Facebook, sharing behind-the-scenes glimpses of the creative journey. He revealed that “Touchdown” took years to create and required multiple trips around the world to collaborate with the artists involved. His post expressed gratitude for everyone who contributed to the project and excitement that it’s finally ready to be shared with fans. ⁠
⁠
Adding to the excitement, Brun also gave a shoutout to the NFL and ESPN, as the track has already been featured in the network's Divisionals campaign. This significant placement signals that "Touchdown" is set to make waves not just in the #Caribbean and #Latin music scenes but also in the world of sports and entertainment. ⁠
⁠
Now, with footage emerging of @michaelbrun and @KingBeenieMan Man filming the video, anticipation is at an all-time high. Fans are eager to see how the visuals will match the track's energy, which brings together some of the biggest names in #reggae, #dancehall, and Latin music.⁠

#BREAKING—Attorneys general from 18 states, alon

#BREAKING—Attorneys general from 18 states, along with advocacy groups, have filed lawsuits to block President #DonaldTrump’s recent executive order ending #birthrightcitizenship in the U.S. The move, announced late Monday, challenges a decades-old immigration policy that grants citizenship to anyone born on U.S. soil, regardless of their parents' immigration status.⁠
⁠
Trump’s executive order, roughly 700 words long, fulfills his long-standing campaign promise to curb immigration. However, its future remains uncertain as it faces what is expected to be a protracted legal battle. The executive order seeks to deny automatic citizenship to children born in the U.S. if their parents were unlawfully present in the country or if one parent was not a U.S. citizen or legal permanent resident.⁠
⁠
Birthright citizenship has been firmly enshrined in the 14th Amendment to the Constitution for decades. This provision guarantees that anyone born in the U.S. is a #citizen, regardless of their parent's #immigration status. Supporters of this policy argue that it ensures basic human rights, while #Trump and his allies contend that the 14th Amendment’s original intent is being misinterpreted. They advocate for more stringent standards on who should be eligible for citizenship.⁠
⁠
In response to the executive order, 18 states, the District of Columbia and #SanFrancisco, have filed lawsuits in federal court. The legal challenge is spearheaded by a coalition of state attorneys general and several immigration advocacy groups, including the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU).⁠
⁠
#California, #Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Maine, Maryland, #Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, #Nevada, #NewJersey, New Mexico, #NewYork, North Carolina, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Wisconsin are the states involved in the lawsuit.⁠

Former Haitian-American #NFL player #JohnathanCypr

Former Haitian-American #NFL player #JohnathanCyprien has officially become a citizen of #Ghana, joining a growing number of African diaspora members and reconnecting with their ancestral homeland. Cyprien, known for his time as a safety with teams like the #Jacksonville #Jaguars, Tennessee #Titans, and #AtlantaFalcons, received #Ghanaian citizenship as part of the country’s ongoing initiative to welcome people of African descent. ⁠
Ghana’s decision to grant citizenship to @Cyp and others stems from its “Year of Return” and “Beyond the Return” initiatives, launched to mark 400 years since the first enslaved Africans were taken to the Americas. These programs encourage descendants of the transatlantic slave trade to reconnect with their African roots and contribute to Ghana’s cultural and economic development. In November 2024, Ghana naturalized 524 individuals, primarily Black Americans, in a historic citizenship ceremony. ⁠
Also spotted receiving their citizenship were marketing executive Bozoma Saint John, activist Dr. Umar Ifatunde, and reality TV personalities and entrepreneurs #Mendeecees Harris and #YandySmith.
Through the Right of Abode policy, Ghana allows people of African descent to live and work indefinitely. Cyprien’s decision to embrace Ghanaian citizenship reflects a broader movement among prominent figures in the African diaspora seeking to strengthen their ties to the continent.

😐 According to this video posted by #Kenyan Pre

😐 According to this video posted by #Kenyan President #WilliamRuto, he stated that national police officers under the Multinational Security Support (MSS) Mission in #Haiti have intensified patrols in major cities of the gang-troubled nation. He further mentioned that order has been restored in several towns, and residents are grateful for the police intervention.
In recent months, Kenya has significantly increased its involvement in the MSS mission to combat gang violence in Haiti. On January 18, 2025, Kenya deployed an additional 217 police officers, bringing the number of Kenyan officers in #Haiti to over 600 since June 2024. Interior Minister Kipchumba Murkomen highlighted the mission's progress, noting that it has made "tremendous progress in reducing gang violence, earning praise across the globe." ⁠
⁠
President Ruto has been actively engaged in supporting the MSS mission. In October 2024, he called on the international community to honor their commitments to support the mission, emphasizing the urgent need for personnel, logistics, and financial resources to sustain and expand security efforts.
The MSS mission, authorized by the United Nations Security Council, aims to stabilize Haiti by providing security assistance to the Haitian National Police. Despite these efforts, challenges remain. The mission has faced issues such as understaffing and logistical constraints, which have impacted its effectiveness. Additionally, there have been concerns about the mission's operational framework and rules of engagement. ⁠
⁠
While the MSS mission has claimed to have made notable strides in enhancing security and restoring order in several Haitian towns, ongoing support and resources are essential to address the remaining challenges and ensure the mission's success. We are waiting for more details to confirm these claims. #lunionsuite #haitianamerican

During President #DonaldTrump's inauguration on Ja

During President #DonaldTrump's inauguration on January 20, 2025, Tesla CEO #ElonMusk delivered a speech at the Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C., celebrating Trump's return to office. During his address, Musk made a gesture that drew immediate attention online. He placed his right hand on his chest and extended it outward with the palm facing downward, a movement that some observers interpreted as a fascist salute. ⁠
⁠
The gesture sparked discussions on social media platforms, with some users expressing concern over its resemblance to historical fascist symbols. However, others defended #Musk, suggesting that the movement was intended as a heartfelt expression of gratitude toward the audience. ⁠
⁠
Musk has not publicly commented on the incident, leaving the interpretation of his gesture open to speculation.⁠
