This is just what the country voted for on November 5th–expanding the federal government’s focus on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion by hiring up to 1200 new DEI drones at outrageous salaries to ensure that the federal government practices as much racism as possible.
Or maybe not, but that is what the Biden administration is doing as a lovely parting gift to the Trump administration and the American people as they get shoved out the door on January 20th.
On November 15, for example,HHS advertised for a Deputy Assistant Secretary for Minority Health, to “promote health equity” at a salary of up to $221,900.

Luke Rosiak of The Daily Wire gives us the good news about the good news for those who are lucky enough to be DEI-certified, just like Matt Walsh. If you are X-certified, you should follow him. He does great work.
The federal government is currently in the process of hiring as many as 1,200 employees to work on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) — employees who would be embedded into the permanent federal workforce headed into the Trump administration, according to a Daily Wire analysis of federal job opportunities.
The jobs have annual salaries of up to $310,000, and could add up to total salary payouts of $160 million a year. Thirty-three DEI jobs were posted in the 10 days immediately following the election of Donald Trump, and the hiring window closes before he takes office.
The bureaucracy is scrambling to fill even high-level jobs, just underneath the ranks of “political appointees,” before the Trump administration takes over. On November 15, for example, the Department of Health and Human Services advertised for a Deputy Assistant Secretary for Minority Health, to “promote health equity” at a salary of up to $221,900.
“Health equity” is a codeword for remaking the health care system by using Critical Race Theory heuristics in a manner to reduce health outcomes for the oppressors and improve them for the oppressed. Measures such as giving preference to treating people of color or “underserved” communities in addressing diseases, and putting oppressors such as white people behind them in the line for access to treatments and vaccines. Or rejiggering the transplant criteria to ensure that more “oppressed” people get to the head of the line.
You know, racial justice sort of stuff.
These people are paid far higher than the median American income for low-quality work. The Secret Service, which bungled its job of preventing assassinations, has a DEI department that wants an “editer” [sic]. pic.twitter.com/TUIBcZScpl

Racial justice will surely be a top priority for the Trump administration, so I am certain that he, Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy, and other administration officials interested in slimming down the federal government will be excited to learn that they won’t have to waste time and money searching for good DEI hires.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Commission (FDIC) is preparing to extend job offers for two separate $310,000 positions, both of which can work from home three days a week. Its new Director of the Office of Minority and Women Inclusion “leads the development, implementation, and ongoing review and renewal of the FDIC’s Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Strategic Plan. Contributes to the development and implementation of FDIC-wide operations as a DEIA advocate. Develops, coordinates, and implements DEIA policies, programs, operations, and procedures throughout the FDIC.” The person will be expected to “defend [the Office Of Minority and Women Inclusion’s] formal budget program requests.”
FDIC also has an Office of Equal Employment, which, according to USAJobs, is currently evaluating contenders for a $310,000 director who “develops Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO), Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (DEIA), employee development, employee performance, and other personnel plans, processes, programs.”
See? Biden is having his people give Trump a head start in filling these vital jobs.
Doing racism takes work, and I am thrilled to report that there is an entire industry dedicated to ensuring we produce enough of it both in government and in the private sector. There are now academic programs preparing people to be bureaucrats in the space, and the federal government is providing incentives ($310,000 salary!) to ensure a steady flow of graduates to keep up the pace.

Even I might be tempted to give up my cushy writing gig to do this grueling work, but alas, I am a late-middle-aged white man with discernible skills and a disgust for racism. I wouldn’t qualify, except as an oppressor. Maybe I can become trans-racially fem and wear a doggie mask to get in the door!
Of course, some of these jobs sound tough.
The Secret Service has an Office of Equity that says it’s looking for a “Writer-Editer” [sic]. NIH is looking for multiple Scientific Diversity Officers and Mental Health Scientific Diversity Officers, at salaries of around $191,900.
The Pentagon’s Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute (DEOMI) is seeking a social media specialist to telework for $113,800 a year. The unit’s social media activity consists of about one post a day, such as one asking, “Did you know National American Indian Heritage Month Traces Its Roots to 1916?” Another asks about the importance of “affirming Native voices.”
DEOMI is an entire organization dedicated to things such as creating posters that say things like, “Diversity: ‘I want to celebrate the richness and diversity of our faith experience in this country.’ -Senator Barack Obama 08’ [sic].” Its staff spend their time on work such as creating a heavily-produced video showing how to use its website, with tips like “you can return to the home page at any time … select the Home tab.”
I wish I could praise Biden for this innovative strategy to help America and reduce the workload for the Trump administration as they hit the ground, but I am afraid that Oatmeal-for-Brains probably didn’t think of this all on his own. Some genius in his orbit is working hard to ensure that the DEI industry has many good years ahead.
January 20th can’t come soon enough.
