In the past four weeks, Costco, which has embraced DEI initiatives, GAINED 7 million shoppers…
Target, which got rid of DEI, LOST 5 million shoppers!
That’s the power we have as consumers.
Remember that.

Judge REYES on a tear, telling DOJ she won't be "gaslit" by effort to say their ban on transgender people in the military isn't actually a "ban."
She notes SecDef Hegseth literally called it a ban on X.
"You're saying one thing in public. You're saying a different thing in court," Reyes said.

It is another to hand it to him.
