President Trump recently told colleges to "End DEI policies”
Instead of ending them, American Universities have been secretly renaming their DEI programs
I’ve put together this comprehensive list of colleges simply renaming their program to keep funding. Here are what the programs were called -> and what they renamed them too:
University of Georgia (Mary Frances Early College of Education): Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion → Office of Inclusion and Belonging.

University of Montana: Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Justice → Inclusive Access and Success.
University of Tulsa: Office for Diversity, Equity & Inclusion → Office for Resilience and Belonging.
Carnegie Mellon University: Office of the Vice Provost for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion → Office of the Vice Provost for Community, Culture and Engagement.
George Mason University: Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion → Office of Access, Compliance, and Community.
University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee: Division of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion → Division of Community Empowerment & Institutional Inclusivity.

⚠️INSIDER CRONYISM AT SOUTH CAROLINA PORTS AUTHORITY⚠️These nine political appointees on the South Carolina Ports Authority Board are the ultimate example of insider cronyism dressed up as public service. Hand-picked by the Governor (mostly McMaster lately, with plenty of carryovers from Haley), rubber-stamped by the Senate, and dominated for years by Columbia developer Bill Stern as chairman, a guy who's funneled over $700,000 into South Carolina political campaigns.
Many others on the board are former gubernatorial staffers, law firm partners with deep Republican ties, or well-connected business types from the Midlands. One from Charleston at best, and for a stretch in 2025, zero, despite the port being the economic engine for the entire Lowcountry.
They get paid a pathetic $11,700 a year (plus expenses) for what is supposedly a part-time gig. Yet they control one of the most powerful economic machines in the entire state.
The Port operation whose revenues have more than doubled in the last decade (from roughly $197 million in FY2015 to $426.5 million in FY2025). The whole thing generates an $87 billion annual economic impact, supports 260,000 jobs, and prints serious money through container fees, inland ports, chassis pools, and expansions, all while operating with almost no direct taxpayer operating subsidies.
So why do wealthy, politically connected people fight for these seats like they're gold-plated?
It's not the chump change stipend. It's the raw power. They get to:
💩Hire and fire the CEO
💩Approve massive contracts and capital projects worth hundreds of millions
💩Steer where new terminals, rail, and industrial development go
💩Influence harbor deepening, land deals, and infrastructure priorities that directly affect real estate values and business opportunities
For a developer like Stern, or the network of insiders around him, this is a front-row seat to the biggest money spigot in South Carolina.
You don't need a fat salary when you can shape policy that benefits your friends, your donors, your law firms, and your own business interests.
💩It's the classic South Carolina patronage game: loyal donors and operatives get rewarded with influence over a public asset that moves the entire state's economy.
Meanwhile, local Charleston voices get sidelined, transparency is minimal, and the board operates like a private club for the connected. The port's explosive growth is impressive on paper, but don't kid yourself.
💩A big chunk of that "success" is being overseen by people whose primary qualification is political loyalty and campaign check-writing ability, not deep port expertise or accountability to the communities that actually feel the trucks, the congestion, and the impacts every single day.
This isn't governance. It's a sweet little club where the well-connected get to play God over billions in commerce for pocket change, and everyone else gets to foot the real costs while they cash in on the connections.
Hi @PBS, according to your own standards staff must exercise civility online and avoid sharing opinions online that compromises PBS’s public trust
Does a board member calling for Trump to suffer a severe illness leaving him permanently disabled fall under these guidelines??
Never in my career have I been asked to forecast massive swarms of mosquitos and gnats.
Humid? Yes. Chance of thunderstorms? Sure. End of the world? Nope.
💩POOP REPORT💩South Carolina taxpayers got played again. In 1997, instead of letting the SCDOT do its damn job and actually fix our roads, the legislature created this shady "State Infrastructure Bank" (SIB) as a parallel slush fund for big-ticket political projects.
Billion$$$ in dedicated revenue (truck fees, gas tax slices, registration fees) got siphoned off into a separate bureaucracy with its own board, zero real oversight, and a track record of favoring pet projects pushed by powerful legislators over actual traffic volume, safety needs, or statewide priorities.
The result? A classic case of political corruption and cronyism dressed up as "economic development." Remember the Florence widening that got slammed for low traffic but massive funding because of House influence? That's the pattern.
The 2016 Legislative Audit Council flat-out said the SIB does nothing SCDOT couldn't handle and recommended killing it or folding it in for accountability. They ignored it.
💩The South Carolina Policy Council just said the same thing in 2026, it "struggles to allocate resources efficiently, often favoring political influence over technical need."
Meanwhile, SCDOT’s budget exploded over 120% since 2013 (way past inflation), we hiked the gas tax in 2017 promising better roads... and our acceptable road conditions dropped while the national average improved.
💩Pothole claims are through the roof.
💩Nine SIB projects are now nearly half a billion over budget thanks to their own incompetence and delays, and the Bank is now nickel-and-diming locals while refusing to cover overruns.
💩Fragmented mess, SCDOT Commission, SIB board, county committees, legislative delegations, all pointing fingers while our roads crumble, bridges fail, and fatalities stay among the worst in the nation.
This isn’t incompetence.
💩It’s deliberate, create extra layers so politicians can steer money to their friends and districts without real accountability.
South Carolinians deserve better than this corrupt, bloated, unaccountable system. Abolish the SIB, merge it into SCDOT, slash the political games, and actually fix the damn roads with the money we’re already paying.
Sorry @JeffereyJaxen it wasn't a vaccine of any type.
You don't create a peptide inhibitor for a vaccine, which is what they did.
The vaccine story was their back up plan for when their bioterrorism was eventually revealed to the world.
When are the prosecutions?
Hello Senator....
This November it will be 50 years since you were first elected to Congress, so we want to be the first to say .
"Happy 50th Anniversary of drawing a taxpayer funded salary."
That is quite an achievement.
In fact - you are 2nd longest-still serving member in Congress.
It has been a long time since you held a private sector job.
AND yes 50 years ago - in 1976 (it was America's Bicentennial that year) - people still punched clocks back then. The world has changed a lot.
During your 50 years in Congress - you watched as the creators and inventors and producers changed the world, creating trillions in new wealth, millions of new jobs and dramatically raising living standards for everyone rich and poor alike.
And for 50 years you have voted to raise taxes and regulate and oversee every move of the private sector.
You have never created or invented or produced. Just taxed and regulated and outraged.
But thank you for using the platform the "TRILLIONAIRE class" has provided to the entire world for free to tell us all how disgusted you are.
We would never know otherwise.
@RealMikeyBrown@AGAlanWilson How do we vote for someone who does not uphold the South Carolina constitution article 2 votes not to be counted in secret
Wells Fargo shut down my bank accounts when I was 17 hours away from home with no other way to pay for anything. I was stranded. They sent my entire bank account and savings to loss prevention in 2021, mailing me a check a month later.
Even today, Wells Fargo refuses to cash checks I bring in from their clients (they told me they don’t keep cash at the bank—seriously). When I tried to open a business account, they kept letting the application “expire” to indirectly refuse doing business with me, despite me signing everything and submitting all applications on time.
I am very happy to see that there is finally an investigation into Wells Fargo and the corruption going on within these big banks. No American should have to suffer financial blacklisting. Give them hell, Judge Jeanine!
