Jessica: He had a campaign rally in the middle of what should have been a somber occasion. And these DEI policies were put in place in 2013. He had every opportunity through his first administration to revoke them if he thought they were terrible, but he didn't.

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.
Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.
But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.
They aren’t firing for a reason.

Three things:
1. This is a nonsense inquiry and basically all this Trump minion has got. Not impressed.
2. NPR gets less than 1 percent of direct funding from the feds. This will impact local stations, which have broad support.
3. Brendan is an unctuous toady.

it's because bank deposits are insured by FDIC.
