For all the unfair characterizations of women as being subpar “DEI” hires, most of the BEST managers I've ever reported to were women. I can think of TWO highly-qualified Women in particular who aren't convicted felons who would be a TRILLION times better than the buzzard in the Oval Office.

Yes, it’s AJ Brown of the Philadelphia Eagles reading a book on the sidelines during yesterday’s game. Of course, the announcers poked fun at him - but how great for young people to see that even football players read (a book about how to achieve inner excellence). 🤓 💙📚 #booksky #books #reading
