Think about how clueless someone would have to be to accept this as a credible explanation for what’s happening to the #US economy.
Well, #Trump and his bootlickers are trying to fire every federal worker who *doesn’t* buy it.
Trump & #Musk aren’t merely getting rid of #women, #POC and others who benefited from #DEI practices.
They’re hiring/retaining the dumbest fuскing people in the country.
"In interviews with KFF Health News, Tovar and three other grant recipients worried that the loss of funding — coupled with President Donald Trump’s crusade against diversity programs — may transform a grant that was supposed to jump-start their careers into a blemish on their résumés that could cost them the jobs and funding that make their research possible."

"LGBTQ+ students and their allies worry the proposed DEI ban on public schools and the other bills threaten their mental health and sense of safety in schools. They are concerned the legislation could silence supportive teachers, dismantle safe spaces, lead to overenforcement and prevent honest conversations about identity under the pressure of compliance with state and federal laws."

Defense Secretary Pete #Hegseth boasted on social media Tuesday that he had dismantled a program supporting women on security teams — and may not have realized the program he tried to break was not a “woke” Biden-era initiative but instead a celebrated program signed into law by his boss, President Donald Trump.

#Billionaires buy politicians to write rules for themselves, to dodge #taxes, exploit workers, fuel division, pollute our #environment and destroy #PublicServices – all while raking in obscene profits.

Such a relief to wake up this morning knowing that #Canada has leadership that will protect our sovereignty and #DEI
... now back to our previously scheduled program of adding #Canadian businesses to MadeInCanada-eh.ca, nerdy #StoryToGo / #edtech musings, #Roamancing #culture and #travel, and mom to a wee #tortie who is exploring life as an otter.

This morning I was honoured to receive a local #GreatYdeas Grant to level up my #scicomm #podcast @sci_burst with @theEllamo
