I’m sorry — *Cracker Barrel* is too woke for the Trump administration?

Cracker Barrel?!?
A Legal group founded by Stephen Miller calls for federal and Tennessee investigations into Cracker Barrel for its DEI policies — “because initiatives are focused on supporting workers who are women, Black, LGBTQ+, or Latino”

I covered Ghislaine Maxwell's trial from her indictment to her conviction - my report minutes after the jury found her guilty is below.

It will be nothing short of a travesty of justice and a tragedy for every girl she victimized if Trump's DOJ cuts a deal with Maxwell to protect the President.

ICE detained a veteran and U.S. citizen for three days.

They didn’t let him contact his family or a lawyer. They didn’t let him change or shower. They didn’t give him a reason for his detention.

Martin Luther King Jr. said that “the ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge.” We are in a time of challenge.

The question for every leader, every citizen is where do you stand?

During the campaign Elon Musk said "Anything can be hacked," and "If Trump doesn't win, I'm going to prison." Yesterday, Trump said Elon was "so good with the vote counting computers we won Pennsylvania."

And nobody in the media or the Democratic party is asking a damned thing about it.

As the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. wisely said, "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." Today and every day, I pledge to never silence my voice in the fight for what is right, and I will continue to march in the path he forged toward justice.
