Major League Baseball removed references to "diversity" from its careers website, the latest organization to acquiesce to the Trump administration's executive order aiming to purge diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives in America.
"Our values on diversity remain unchanged," MLB said a statement Friday. "We are in the process of evaluating our programs for any modifications to eligibility criteria that are needed to ensure our programs are compliant with federal law as they continue forward."
Cupofcoffeenews.com was the first to report the changes on MLB's website.
"Our values, particularly our values on diversity, remain unchanged. But another value that is pretty important to us is we always try to comply with what the law is," MLB commissioner Rob Manfred said last month after an owners' meeting.
TVNL Comment: Sniveling cowards. 'Diversity' is now a dirty word? What law requires you to change anything on your website? Laws are passed by Congress. The country is crumbling in its ingratiating hurry to kowtow to the narcissist in the White House.
