I am grateful that so many people found my open letter to Elon Musk moving and want to share it. Some well meaning people are just cutting and pasting it on their social media feeds. I would appreciate it if people would link to the version posted on @democracydocket.com instead. Thanks. Marc

I think it’s not helpful to repeat claims that the administration is working on eliminating “DEIA” as though it’s some kind of corporate strategy; just say explicitly that they’re trying to eliminate diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility, and explain how.

#Ontario #FORD has used the US #tariffthreat as an election move. His $85K/month to US #lobbyists, use of #campaignstaffers, and 2 #tripstoDC were election plans. He “quit his job at the most important time, to call an #electionearly.” THE ELECTION IS #self-serving.
