Who knew a font could be woke? U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has asked diplomats to ditch Calibri and return to using Times New Roman in official communications.

A cable sent to diplomats yesterday read: “To restore decorum and professionalism to the Department’s written work products and abolish yet another wasteful DEIA program, the Department is returning to Times New Roman as its standard typeface."
