Shawn Fleetwood writes for the Federalist about an interesting trend involving people linked to diversity, equity, and inclusion programs.

It only took a shellacking at the ballot box, but some leftists seem to be slowly realizing that their harmful race and gender politics aren’t selling with voters as much as they’d hoped.

Last week, it was reported that former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg axed his “he/him” pronouns from his social media accounts. The discovery came amid speculation that Buttigieg may run to become the Democrat nominee for Michigan’s 2026 Senate seat, which came about after Sen. Gary Peters, D-Mich., announced he will not be seeking reelection.

President Trump won Michigan by 1.4 points during the 2024 election.

But Buttigieg is hardly the only notable leftist to seemingly whitewash his public participation in Democrats’ race and gender games. Several career bureaucrats also appear to have altered portions of their social media profiles that signaled their endorsement of neo-Marxist ideology.

According to the American Accountability Foundation (AAF), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Stefanie (Erskine) Anderson “discretely updated her LinkedIn title from [Diversity Equity Inclusion and Accessibility] DEIA advisor to Public Health Advisor/Workforce Advisor.” The watchdog group claimed the change represents “a clear attempt to dodge Donald Trump’s new executive order,” which aims to terminate all DEI-related programs, offices, policies, and activities throughout the federal government.

Anderson appears to have liked a post from then-President Biden’s Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, which provided readers with a toolkit identifying types of so-called “health misinformation.”

The CDC’s Reginald Jones has also seemingly altered his job title on his LinkedIn profile.

According to AAF, the job title head previously listed under Jones’ profile name read, “Public Health Professional & Class of 2024 Presidential Management Fellow” and “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Change Agent.” Now, Jones’ LinkedIn profile does not list his DEI title under his profile name.
