everyone seeing how when you takeaway the DEI the planes start falling out of the sky
💥 BREAKING: At John Deere's annual shareholders meeting today, shareholders overwhelmingly rejected an anti-DEI proposal brought by the same group that targeted Costco and Apple. An anti-DEI proposal from the NCPPR received less than 1 percent of votes.

The federal government promised it would reimburse farmers for millions in infrastructure investments, but Trump's funding freeze just left farmers on the hook.
And if Trump's tariffs go through, farmers will be in even more dire straits.

Inspectors General are key public servants tasked with holding our government accountable. They’re independent, nonpartisan whose work is identifying fraud, waste, & importantly, abuse. Trump just fired them all. Make no mistake: he's purging those who will protect the rule of law.

Before leaving office on Jan. 20, President Biden preemptively pardoned
Dr. Anthony Fauci as he feared could be targeted by Trump. On his third day in office, Trump ended federal security detail for Dr. Fauci. Trump said he wouldn't feel responsible if harm befell the former government official.

At the end of WW2, American generals sent the German townsfolk near places like Dachau and Bergen-Belsen through the camps so they could never again claim they didn't know.

NEW: Trump’s acting secretary of HHS just sent out an agency-wide email mandating the end of all DEIA offices and contracts—and setting up a tip line for employees to report any contract or job position altered “since November 5, 2024 to obscure the connection between the contract and DEIA.” Text:
