I travel the world solving puzzles and playing with fire. (I'm a field engineer that works on industrial production furnaces.)
I like maps, history, and a bit of whiskey.

The text of the actual bill. Too big to read the whole thing. You could download it and search it in Word or your favorite text editor.

Pass it on.

I am straight, white, and male. But I am also a DEI hire because I am a veteran.
Although I am quite aware that I won't get fired because the bigots don't see me as a DEI hire.

If you were not aware of this, the role you played today should have been played by the Secretary of State.
In the end, you will take more heat than Pence did. And you won't get any sympathy since you did not try to do the right thing when you had the chance.

This will happen both internally in the White House and externally when Trump needs somebody else to take the heat.
Since you don't have a real job in this govrenment, dumping you does not even slow down whatever Trump will decide to do afterwards.

You will get used as a scapegoat just as soon as there is a setback for Russia in Ukraine. You and only you will get blamed by Trump for whatever goes wrong when Ukraine does not fall apart.

It seems they use DEI to cover every form of fear based bigotry.
