Naval Academy tosses 400 DEI books from library following Trump administration DEI expulsion orders

The US Navy in Annapolis, Maryland, is filming nearly 400 books of its library, according to the Trump administration directives to eliminate content related to diversity, fairness and integration (Dei).
“We can confirm that the US Naval Academy has removed nearly 400 books from their NIMITz library in order to ensure compliance with all the directives shown on executive orders issued by the president,” a naval spokesman told Fox News Digital on Wednesday. “The NIMITZ Library includes approximately 590,000 printing books, 322 databases, and more than 5,000 journals and magazines printed to support academic inquiries and intellectual development of bicycle men.”
The list of books presented was not available and no other details were provided immediately.
President Donald Trump has signed multiple executive orders to guide federal agencies to remove Dei’s content, including in January, to prevent children’s kindergarten to the twelfth grade institutions that receive federal funding from the inclusion of Dei materials in its curriculum. But the American military service academies have been exempt from the twelfth grade.

The clearance of the Maritime Academy arose from an order from the office of Defense Minister Beit Higseth, according to Associated Press – although it is unclear whether Higseth had issued the same guidance or if it came from one of the employees.
The Pentagon did not respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital on whether the Higseth Office had made the request, and if it had issued other service academies instructions to cleanse books from their libraries. Instead, the Pentagon Fox News addressed the United States of Maritime Academy and participated in a statement issued by the chief Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell: “All service academies are fully committed to the implementation and implementation of President Trump’s executive orders.”

Higseth has been awake about getting rid of Dei’s DEI programs. In January, he announced that the Pentagon would follow all orders from Trump to calm efforts from the army.
“The president’s instructions (legal orders) are clear: no more Dei in the defense department.” “The Pentagon will immediately comply. No exceptions, name changes or delay.”

The Pentagon’s efforts to eliminate DEI from social media and its electronic sites initially removed the removal of a group of DOD pages, including references to the Enola Gay plane responsible for shooting off the atomic bomb in Hiroshima, Japan, in 1945.
However, the Pentagon moved to the restoration of some of these web pages – including those that referred to old warriors such as the old warriors in the American army and the baseball player Jackie Robinson and Tuskiji pilots, the first black military pilot in the army during World War II.
Meanwhile, rubbing the Naval Academy library comes days after he took documents from the Court of Appeal in the fourth American district on Friday that the Service Academy will not take into account race, ethnicity or sex in admission to the institution, in response to an executive order that was issued in January.
In 2023, the Supreme Court ruled that the consideration of race in the admission process in higher education was unconstitutional, however, it provided a warning to the American military academies. The previous legal deposits from the Marine Academy said that although race is rarely a factor in the admission process, he sometimes did a “limited manner.”
The US Navy Academy is one of the many military academies of service, and bicycle men trained in university stage as professions as officers in the US Navy and Navy.
