Army War College is following Trump's DEI order to omit all photos promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion.

The action supports Trump's decision to make the Department of Defense align with fair treatment to make the military great again. The deduction of inappropriate photos in relation to diversity, equity, and inclusion is under review by the Army War College and will soon not be available or accessible.

The recent news will affect the LGBTQAI+ community’s reputation through the deletion of the photos on the website.

Army War College Website to be Modified After DEI Order

The Army War College posted one page on its website, specifically a one-pager stating that the ongoing content removal should follow Trump’s administration guidelines regarding posts related to diversity, equity, and inclusion.

By the one-page post and the review of the Department of Defense, it was not clear to the citizen as the written statement is, "specific posts have been removed, are in the process of being removed in accordance with federal guidance."

The Army War College's purpose in posting is to keep the citizens following their website updated on what news rules need to be followed in accordance with Trump's executive order on DEI.

This action was made to maintain the consistent and efficient services of the military along with keeping the integrity of the communication channels.

What’s the DEI Effect on the DoD?

Trump’s executive order with regard to DEI was to remove all their photos from different department websites, including the Department of Defense and branches related to it. The order was to provide a fully efficient and equal opportunity for Americans.

The Trump administration believes that favoring the DEI program will result in an outcome to always treat them dominantly, and fair treatment will never be the same with the private departments supporting them.

Banning these initiatives will result in unity where equality is present, and the workforce prospers without any biases, but since Trump is an anti-DEI supporter himself, it affects the diverse culture, such as the DEI programs, which promotes inclusivity in diversity.

Trump's Orders Are Met With Differing Opinions

In the military, transgender people are not allowed to provide services to the nation, but people who refused to have the COVID-19 vaccine will now return to the service.

Evidently, Trump’s support for the LGBTQIA+ community is not very good, as many LGBTQAI+ citizens didn't want Trump to be their president.

The Army War College’s loyalty and need to follow Trump’s DEI order is showing in the actions done in deleting posts related to diversity, equity, and inclusion, which are still ongoing – affecting many DEI supporters as their memories through the photos will soon be removed.

Why DEI-Related Posts Are Prohibited

President Trump’s executive order entitled “Ending Illegal Discrimination and Restoring Merit-Based Opportunity” was passed on January 21, 2025. Trump adds to the Private Sector to end Illegal DEI discrimination and Preference to foster unity in the nation.

“We have ended the battle in favor of diversity, equity, and inclusion in the entire federal government, and our nation will be better again soon,” Trump said in Congress on Tuesday night.

That is why related posts regarding diversity, equity, and inclusion are prohibited to stop the promotion of illegal DEI discrimination. This manner will only promote equal treatment among the members of the military and other entities in the United States of America.

Soon, on many more military websites, photos, videos, and content related to DEI will be removed in accordance with the DEI order.
