If you wondered what DEI looks and sounds like in Congress, Rep. Summer Lee just gave an excellent rundown:
• "This hearing is trying to legitimize a dangerous idea of what equitable and inclusive education looks like."
• "Equity policies are necessary to reverse harm caused by systemic discrimination, discrimination that was enacted by policies passed in this room."
• "Equity policies are only a threat if your ideals are grounded in white supremacy."
• "Hearings like this are trying to make an example of districts that want all kids, irrespective, not because of their race, gender, socio- socioeconomic status, disability status, language, immigration status..."
• "One in four high school students identify as LGBTQI+. One in ten students are English learners."
• "Fifteen percent of students receive special education services."
• "Diversity is just a factual description of students our schools serve."
• "Our public education system provides young people the critical foundation needed to be full participants in our multiracial democracy and competitive in the global economy."
• "Equity and inclusion policies are fundamental to protecting students' rights to a quality education."
What a complete embarrassment to our political system.
Jasmine Crockett says Metcalf instigated confrontation with Anthony because he was emboldened as a white guy:
“Why you rolling up on somebody and being like, get out?"
“To me, this is the culture that is being instigated…they gettin' real bold with us right now."
“This whiteness, this replacement theory crap that they on and all this kind of stuff, and it's like, oh, we the victims."
"I mean, we've all interpreted that there was a race component to this. Oh yeah, it’s raining, but get out. Why? Why? Why?"
This is just the latest example of a pattern we've seen time and again whereby the media goes apoplectic over some supposedly innocent family man being detained by ICE, and then, days later, it turns out there was more to the story than they initially let on.
Tillis once again shows his ass to the voters who sent him to DC. NC overwhelmingly passed a voter ID consitutional amendment requiring voter photo ID. Tillis ignored the will of his state's voters by voting NO for the save act.
More than 15 million immigrants arrived in the U.S in the last 15 years.
That had a really negative impact on my life.
The fact that some rich people got richer, often by creating useful new products and services, didn’t.
Los Angeles: Transient sucker punches elderly customer eating lunch alone at a cafe in Hollywood, steals his wallet and phone. Hero steps up and takes the thief down.
I grew up in Philadelphia. Everybody knew voter fraud was widespread -- vans passing out cigarettes on skid row, old folk's homes, half-way houses.
Media spending the past six years pretending it's never happened has been... surreal.
After this statement by Thune, every Republican Senator should be moving to remove Thune as Senate leader.
And look at @SenatorLankford@SenCapito and @SenJohnBarrasso , all standing in unity with the UNIPARTY leader betraying the American people.
All three need to lose their seat.
Illegal aliens killed the stadium deal!!!!!!
JB Pritzker can’t cut a deal to keep the Bears in Illinois, but he’ll drop billions housing illegals shipped to Chicago.
Cubs + Bears equals $1.2 BILLION in revenue a year. Taxpayers. Jobs. Tourism.
Invaders equal a massive net drain.
Pritzker would rather fund housing for people who just got here than take care of the Chicago teams that actually pay the bills.
Priorities tell you everything
This is what Karmelo Anthony was doing. This is what playing music on the subway without headphones means. This is what getting in someone’s way on the escalator or elevator means. It’s always a dare. It’s a challenge. It’s getting in someone’s face and hoping they brush up against you enough to swing. It’s a deliberate provocation, and the pattern appears over and over again.
This is why the black community is in shambles, because of people like this guy.
Black males, 14-55 years old, make up only about 4% of the US population but are responsible over 50% of all murders.
Now he wants black people to burn down their own buildings because a murderer was convicted of murder.
This is insanely anti-American.
In Barcelona, people are randomly getting shot in the head in the middle of the city.
In broad daylight.
I’m sorry for the sensitive images, but it is time we massively wake up and take action.
Governor Kim Reynolds of Iowa just announced that the state will outsource the IT operations of approximately 200 state employees to Cognizant.
Cognizant is classified by the Department of Labor as H-1B-dependent, meaning more than 15% of its U.S workforce holds H-1B visas.
The majority of Cognizant employees are based in India.
