Here's the choice: Pepsi ended some of its DEI initiatives, including in managerial roles. Coke has a goal of having women hold 50% of senior leadership roles by 2030 and said DEI is "at the heart of our values and our growth strategy". Join the economic blackout: don't buy anything Pepsi.

Right now in West Texas, measles is spreading rapidly with over 90 people suffering. How many were vaccinated? 5. Most will recover. But there is the possibility of pneumonia, encephalitis (inflammation of the brain), seizures, blindness, and death.

If you think white males are the only individuals qualified to hold jobs, then shop wherever you want on Feb 28th. BUT, If you disagree, then only shop at places that hire and support qualified people regardless of who they are. Be part of the retail blackout! www.usatoday.com/story/money/...

Weeks before the election, Donald Trump posted on his social media platform, Truth Social, that the prices of eggs and gas are “OUT OF CONTROL!!!” and he promised that on “DAY ONE” he would “SLASH prices–so fast it’ll make their heads spin.” I'm waiting.

I called my senator's office yesterday. (Senator John Cornyn of Texas). My call was sent to voicemail, but it was full. No messages were being taken. A couple of questions: when was it last emptied? and are any calls ever taken by a real person?

Google is making a huge PR mistake yielding to the tRump. Google has confirmed it will rename the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America on Google Maps in the US. For people outside the US, they will have both names. (So far, Apple is not changing their map.)

Living in Texas, 'guns' are a big deal. So when the latest from Pew Research came out with this map, I had to rethink (just a little) how safe I feel. Do I trust that 46% of the Texas adults will act responsibly? Not with a gun.

In Virginia's 10th state Senate district there is reportedly a low turnout from Republicans, low enough that we can flip this normally solid red seat. If you know any Dems in central Virginia let them know and have it spread. Under 7 hours left now! Regardless make sure to repost this & share.

FYI: While holiday deliveries may cause frustration, and a recent endorsement of trump by Jeff Bezos may cause you to think badly of Amazon, Bezos is not the CEO and only owns 9% of the stock. Give the drivers a break. They are doing the best they can with an enormous number of deliveries!

Is it a good thing for a company to make money off the pain, suffering, and death of the people that pay them for help? The medical insurance industry is on trial in the minds of people for doing just that...and the answer is the government needs to regulate and ultimately close down this industry.
