its like trying to make a good gumbo, but you only want to use chicken stock ...... It takes a blend of amazing ingredients to make a real GREAT gumbo .....
That's why I love learning american history, because all those European mutts born here would have been denied a job back in the 20s-60s but most of them forgot their ancestors version of DEI. 🤣😂
Those men will all sit there thinking they are the best at the job. Not once will it enter their tiny brains that they only got the job because of their gender and race.
This is Trump's White House. Who knew? Only the millions of people who didn't vote for him, and most of the rest of the world who can't believe he's back.
And look at the results. Not one minority member was chosen for chairmanship. So much for the tap dancing, buck dancing, cat walking, and cheesing all for naught.
No, you don’t understand, these people DEFINITELY earned their roles, they weren’t just arbitrarily given these positions to fulfill some vague agenda…oh wait
That’s where we fail each other. Those white old geezers stick together and work to pit women against each other, rather than women standing up and supporting fellow women.
I have known for years, but people never believed me. Eve had to take the blame for Adam eating the apple as well as her own blame. Most people in this country are taught that, whether they follow religion later in life or not. Always blame women, never men. There will never be a "hos before bros."
I can’t account for stupidity. But if you ask me if I trust the numbers we’ve been offered by tRump/Musk’s accounting, I’d say no. They’re crooked to the bone. When they lose, it’s “stolen.” And when they “win,”we trust their numbers? I don’t.
religion has s great deal to do with it… obey your husband … I truly believe religion was invented to oppress and repress women by men who understood way back in the beginning that women are far superior to men.
So they invented religion where you show your faith by following the rules made by men
Notice how it was Eve's "fault" that Adam ate the apple too? She had to take the blame for both of them. I still don't believe Eve talked Adam into eating the apple. It's always men promising women nothing bad will happen, just let him do what he wants. Women have to take responsibility. Men don't.
Emuskulation is certainly trending in the prophetically named White House (can drones be used to drop paint?), so the fear of its more prolific twin is rampant with the appropriately hued snowflake regime represented by these spineless misogynists. They do not deserve our respect or compliance.
I’m a woman I didn’t vote for them nor do any women I know. You aren’t referring to the majority of women in this country so-only those who support white supremacy, same as the men who support white supremacy. And BTW GOP women would vote the same as these men pictured here.
Kills me when GOP lawmakers refer to DEI as if it was some communist plot. Diversity equality inclusion which of those concepts do they find an American fundraising campaign.
Not that I favor the word, but the references to ““woke“ are simillar
It is so sad that americans appear unable to understand the concept and process. The individual first demonstrates that they are qualified Then other factors are considered
all of which keeps us fixated on their script, scandal by scandal, incompetence by incompetence, as if any of it matters. It doesn't, and this explains it...
as awful as this is.....they were voted in because of low turnout and increased shares of women/minority voters. No surprise these are Republican choices. They will do Proj 2025 while Trump does the Big Grift. I am worried about Hegseth, Gabbard, Patel and RFKjr. They are gonna get people killed.
If you let them tell you, it's good for the country. Sure, a of sycophants that are lining waiting to kiss the ring, with a smile. It's a shame, painful, and embarrassing
It looks just like tRUMP's former administration, so there's no surprise here. Older, straight, white, male (usually older).
Loyal minions to the 'Don' of tRUMP's mafia structure. No talent, just loyalty.
Do you work at sounding that ignorant or does it come naturally. I Just watched a Black DA (Racist) In New York put a white man through a trial because he stopped a black man along with help from 2 other black men from hurting innocent people. So as per your thinking he should have closed his eyes.
I hear you, but no. After the bullshit Mace pulled the last month? The insanity over bathrooms? That should be a non-issue as it has for eons. As it is IN EVERY OTHER COUNTRY. What will be weird? Middle school boys finding Congresswomen in men's room b/c Mace wanted to be an ass.
Don’t give that clown a 2nd thought. Women’s restrooms all have stalls anyway. But, that doesn’t have anything to do with “CIS”. Which, was my only point. It’s just redundant to say. If you’re Male, straight, or gay? You’re male. End of story. There doesn’t need to be a sub category for separation.
It's DEIA, actually. The Accessibility part is what has helped more veterans be employed than during any other presidency. Republicans only pretend to support the military.
Yep. When you start selecting for people without giving any regard to merit, you get unqualified picks. Be it based solely on ethnicity/race/gender, or on blind loyalty towards the one picking them, any deviance from true, genuine merit lowers standards.
However, I can also understand the left's perspective on DEI, especially if the current system actively undermines people of high merit solely on ethnicity/race/gender.
Considering what #DiaperDon is going to do, I am starting to understand the left's perspective a lot more than I did before.
Yes the DEI complaints were base on a false premise that every job is usually filled by the best of the best when in reality many times it is who you know.
Given the image presented, I can perfectly understand why DEI is a thing. You would expect at least one black man in this image, but it is all white men. If a system will discriminate against minorities naturally, then DEI will balance out the bias of the system.
Yes, I know who those people are. My question, in case it wasn't clear, was about why you think a more diverse and inclusive cabinet would be "as bad". Can you explain?
Well I said in a worst case scenario of DEI and that is based on the general complaint from the right about it which is selecting a less than optimal person for the position just to satisfy a quota of sorts. So we are on the same page I think.
No, I don't think we are. Certainly that's how the right wants to depict diversity, equality and inclusion but that's absolutely not what it is. There are no quotas. It's about fairness and understanding how diverse experiences and viewpoints benefit an organisation.
Glad to help Val,
I'm always happy to contribute - no matter whether it's ✨or 💩!!
(And I'm sure I contribute liberal amounts of later as well as some gems !!).
Just a reminder that only 3 flipped seats will result in Dems controlling the House. There are already 3 special elections set for 2025 and there is on average 13 special elections for every 2 year Congressional class. If we want to see the faces of these committees change, it’s time to get to work.
They are qualified! They are being picked on the basis of their loyalty to tRump & their willingness to destroy America in order to enrich themselves. For that, these grifters are eminently qualified.
I cannot express just how much I wish this wasn't true and how scary 2025 might be. We know what scares them though...People deciding to do something about their crimes against humanity. Luigi is now a name to be feared by the elite, and they are trying SO HARD to make us think they aren't afraid.
Saltines aren't bad, per se. But they need something with flavor to make them worth eating, and if they're off brand, as these appear to be, I'd just as soon eat paste.
It's pretty diverse as far as white men go. Some have blue ties, some red. Some have grey hair, some brown and some blond. I'll bet all of the haired men discriminate against the bald guys, though.
Some have dark socks, some go crazy with colorful socks. Some rock boxers, some rock briefs. Some love football, some love basketball. Quite a diverse bunch, I hope they can all get along.
That list includes Jim Jordan. So, yeah, off the street at random strictly because of race, orientation or gender is going to be better than that mouth breathing child molester ignoring piece of shit.
There is one way to argue that these selections are merit based. Look at how few GOP women there are in Congress. When the candidate pool is overwhelmingly male, pale and stale, then it is unsurprising that these gents float to the top.
Yes, that’s the point. Their entire argument is DEI puts minorities in places they couldn’t get based on merit. They would claim they are where they are because they deserve it and have earned it.
Just like Musk saying he is where he is because he earned it. We know that isn’t true.
NEW: After the network was forced to pay a settlement to Trump's slander lawsuit against them, disgraced ABC anchor George Stephanopoulos deactivates his X account. Trump was "found liable for r*pe" of E. Jean Carroll, according to Stephanopoulos's untrue statement.
Lol he said "found guilty of rape" which requires qualification to be true, instead of the accurate and true statement "found guilty of sexual assault".
What a monster who did untold damage to Trump's image by saying rape instead of sexual assault, which again, he did and was found guilty.
Actually it was a defamation case. The alleged defamation was that Carroll was lying when she said she was raped. Truth is a defense. So the jury found that she wasn't lying when she said she was raped, i.e., she was telling the truth , i.e., Trump did rape her.
So sorry to hear that, Tom. They betray you for something that doesn’t even affect them. At least you know now who your real friends are. This news makes me want to date black women myself.
The mother of one comes up to me at the reception & says - "Black people are inferior." I just straight deadpanned her. Which seemed to make her nervous. So she blurted out - "It says so in the Bible!"
"Riight. Hey! Look who's here. I'll be back." I walked away with a glazed look in my eyes.
It's funny in retrospect. The sad part is that kind of thinking has only been amplified. It never went away. It went undercover. They're back to saying the quiet parts out loud.
I don’t know why but this is the cultural equivalent to a tub of crusty Kindergarten paste, circa 1984. Dried out, bland, white, nearly useless and these days, obsolete.
GOP have 2 female Committee Chairs in current Congress. So they had to go out of their way to remove them to make this statement of NO females in 20 years.
And we are supposed to believe that all of these appointed cizwhite males are the most qualified for the position and didn’t get the job by pledging fealty and loyalty to a certain politician?
There need to be a better system for diversity. I personally got passed on a job even though I was far more qualified, to someone who never even worked in the field solely because she was black I was actually told this by my manager "we have a quota & black woman counted twice".. I quit
That is what so many do not understand. DEI is to encourage the hiring of minorities and women - who are qualified. Whereas, the upcoming administration is wants to hire only MAGAffirmative Action hires - who are not experienced and/or qualified for those positions.

The problem is that political parties back up mostly white old men with 💰: They get elected and perpetuate that system, not representing the American population diversity. https://abcnews.go.com/amp/Politics/republican-women-chosen-lead-house-committees-time-decades/story?id=116764680
The current nominee for SecDef, the Nazi Pete Hegseth, is also a combat veteran like me. He said vets who use their benefits are "entitled."
If they gut the VA, they will have a million or more really pissed off vets in DC from both sides of the aisle.
America has a cancer and I'm not sure we're going to make it.
Found 2 wig and 3 hair implant, but not too much differences 🤔
"white old geezers"
What is the age? Where do they live? Personally I believe it is where they live!!!
53% is sorta consistent with the numbers in 2020 when he lost.
I don’t subscribe to them voting against their self interests because that would mean they're idiots or have no agency.
Don’t think that's the case.
So they invented religion where you show your faith by following the rules made by men
Imagine if the Bible had been created and interpreted by women…
Not that I favor the word, but the references to ““woke“ are simillar
Undiversified,
Unequal and
Exclusionary.
Loyal minions to the 'Don' of tRUMP's mafia structure. No talent, just loyalty.
Keep fighting the good fight George
Jordan
Cotton
Gaetz
Oconnol
the list goes on
Bet each of those men belong to some super church group that believes women are seen & not heard .
Cause ya know : god was born from a RAPE VICTIM.

He saw my daughter 20 years later & was stammering. She left & he says - "She's BEAUTIFUL! Hope I didn't make a fool of myself."
"Too late."
:)
"Riight. Hey! Look who's here. I'll be back." I walked away with a glazed look in my eyes.
White med...assimilate or die
*shudder* 🤢
Makes me want to party likes it's 1789.
Oh and you can say CIS here. 😉
