Diversity initiatives were meant to overcome the old patterns of nepotism, so I guess it makes sense that the enemies of diversity are big fans of nepotism.

This is exactly what I have been saying for a while now. At this point, it’s not left vs right that matters, but fighters vs non-fighters. The Dems, and the American people, need fighters.

What's ridiculous is that they can lose that much and it doesn't even matter. They will still be poised to buy up whatever they want at a discount when the economy crashes.

“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”

Military aid to Ukraine has always been a bargain for the U.S.
We degraded Russia’s armed forces and replaced our own stockpiles with brand new weapons, all while brave Ukrainians— not Americans—fought the Russians off.
Halting that aid is not only morally repulsive, it’s plain stupid.

What makes anyone think Elon Musk has any allegiance to the US? He wasn't born here. He only became a citizen in 2002. He's not a vet. He's never demonstrated any real interest in the US other than its citizens' money.

Donald Trump, in his inaugural address on January 20, 2025:
“We will forge a society that is colorblind and merit-based.”
This is the same man who built his whole career on nepotism, cronyism, and rigging the system for himself and members of his good ol’ boys club.

Let's be clear: They are scared of DEI initiatives because they don't want to be on equal footing with equally/more qualified candidates that they know have already had to work harder every step of the way.
