Pam Bondi Instructs Trump DOJ to Criminally Investigate Companies That Do DEI

Who’ll be the first to ever be indicted for “criminal inclusion”?

Is Polymarket taking bets on what’ll be the first company to be imprisoned for employing people who are not white men? flip.it/EgCW7d #loligarchy

Village of brightly lit and colorful small gingerbread houses

Village of brightly lit and colorful small gingerbread houses

Our gingerbread village is in a walkable neighborhood, with multi-family housing in a variety of sizes and includes commercial spaces for small local businesses. Sadly the burnout carriage house is waiting for a special permit! #ZoningForTheHolidays #MissingMiddleHousing

Rebuilding with housing and 2 of the three major players there now (liquor store + Dunkin’) would be a huge win for NC. As final version of #MBTAzoning eccluded Newton Corner, only a very expensive (and large) building can survive special permit process and less likely to have ground floor retail.

Marry someone who will make whatever your heart desires. This meal inspired by @nytgames.bsky.social The fondant potatoes were out of the world.

What if what he is saying is a subtle threat? Like Trumps cabinet is going to come after those who donate to the ACLU? Or at least what they have already promised Trump will see that organizations like the ACLU will loose their tax exempt status.

A narrow walkway in Tokyo. The sides of the street are lined with shops and what look to be residences.

If we want better fashion culture in the US, we have to lower the cost of housing and commercial real estate, support independent craftspeople, build denser neighborhoods, improve walkability, and get rid of overly restrictive zoning laws. Let kook culture thrive.

Something many of you can do:

Help attorneys you know get trained as emergency immigration lawyers. Not to take on immigration cases through the whole span of the process, but to keep people out of detention or get them out once they’re in. Plenty of migrant rights groups do trainings.

So unbelievably sad for her loved ones. So angry with the obscene people who have made women’s health care a political lever.

Democrats must learn a great deal from 2024, but they also must be careful not to overcompensate. History will not be kind to those who vilified things like diversity and basic dignity for the trans community.

We need a campaign to reeducate drivers that speed limit is really max speed. Way too many driver think speed limit is speed minimum.

What I love about this Officially Verified Bluesky Press Lists is it includes a real mix of people at major legacy media outlets, independent organizations, and freelancers.

We can promote a diverse media when billionaires don't control what you see.

Let's keep it growing!

Blocklists are such a cool
feature of @bsky.app if you are new here (like me) and want to stay away from the haters and the trolls click on each of the links below and then hit the subscribe button. Don’t worry, you won’t be subscribed. You can then choose mute or block the users.

I used it and it worked. It just took some time. I will go back and see if more of my followers move to Blue Sky in the coming days. So far only 150 of 1300 followers are on Blue Sky and only 160 of the 2000+ people I follow.

So glad to hear. I was really hoping for roundabouts here as it is a bit of a driving/walking/biking nightmare.
