After mass boycotts against Target for ending their diversity, equity and inclusion program in January, they’ve seen 8 consecutive weeks of decline in foot traffic as well as significant loss in market value whilst Costco saw significant gains for keeping their DEI program.

Good.

Tweet 1: Seung Min Kim @ @seungminkim •3h
HYATTSVILLE, Md. (AP) — A federal judge orders the US to return a Maryland man mistakenly deported to an El Salvador prison.

Tweet 2: Seung Min Kim & @seungminkim
White House response: "We suggest the Judge contact President Bukele because we are unaware of the judge having jurisdiction or authority over the country of El Salvador." - @PressSec

It sure looks like they’re going all in on the “the executive branch can ignore court orders if it thinks the court lacks jurisdiction” thing

Black line illustration on white paper of a shorthaired tabby cat marching confidently through a jungle scene. It is unperturbed by the foliage, vines, flowers, and beautiful snake that swirl around it.

From Best Cat Stories, a book in my collection of short stories by different authors with wonderful illustrations by Eileen Mayo. 1952.

Right now in our fractured world some people may be seen as targets by simply being who they are. If not you personally, then someone you know. Whoever we are, we can help create safe spaces for one another in our shared search for community. Not illegal. Not political. Just safe. Charleston

IRS will cut 25% of its employees, eliminating its civil rights office The IRS began telling employees about the coming reduction in emails sent Friday.

A cool and normal thing to do a week and a half before Tax Day.

Heaven forbid that this simple-minded buffoon would allow his crashing the United State's economy, or the return of the remains of four people killed in our military, to interfere with yet one more stupid golf game for this superficial scam-artist to cheat at.

As long as I live, I will never understand why they would rather elect a singularly worthless white rapist as president than an exceptionally impressive black woman.

Lamont: DOGE says we’re just getting rid of waste, fraud, and abuse—that’s nonsense. All they’re doing is pushing costs onto the state. When we get cuts, we don’t get any notice. All of a sudden, the portal turns off and they stop paying for daycare, they stop paying for Health Department services..

Why Cory Booker’s Speech Matters Booker didn’t “accomplish” anything. He was a voice of one crying in the wilderness. And that’s how you build a dissident movement: with simple acts of witness.

"The catch is that in order to get attention, you have to be terrible. You have to lie or embrace evil. In the attention economy there is enormous demand for civic blasphemy. What’s hard is getting attention for messages about truth, or virtue, or love."

Kudlow: "Buying cheap goods is not a real prosperity, and we don't have to accept that. So you lay the law down, that's all. Look, all the badly behaving children in Asia and elsewhere are coming home to papa. They're all on the phone begging for mercy."
