May I add: if you're a lawmaker in the minority, and you tell me you've "introduced a bill to <insert what people are outraged about>" as an answer, you're gaslighting your constituents. It's NOT getting a vote. Stop it.

10 years ago, I'd bet if I asked people what the definition of America was, a high percentage would use words like diversity, equity and inclusion.

During Public Forum on C-SPAN, I've noted an increase of MAGA Republicans claiming they're too liberal. I wouldn't be surprised if they're next.

I'm listening to Washington Journal this morning about the midair crash, and I'm wondering if people realize right-wing think tanks are responsible for elevating "DEI" as the new boogeyman? Remember the "CRT" boogeyman during the last election cycle?

Iβm guessing they wonβt find that Trumpβs reckless and impulsive air safety cuts were directly responsible, but it is a reminder that not everything is a game, a show for Fox News approval.
