You wouldn't dismantle the agency that protects consumers for corporate abuse and scams unless you wanted your rich buddies to be able to abuse and scam consumers.

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out. Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation. Say equity, which a just society should pursue. Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

🧵Feb 6, 2025 The 6th day of Black History Month quote from Mr Baldwin again is amazingly timely. It is about now. Put the angst aside. Put your efforts into actions NOW. If we fail to act now, I fear that our hopes and prayers will be as ineffective as they’ve been stopping bullets in schools.🩵💙🩵💙

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

This won’t be the only time TN House. Republicans have been confused about their own bills. They often don’t read them. When the TN Trigger Law was put into place, many of them didn’t read it, being told that it was the same that it had been before, when many extreme changes had been made.
