Pete Buttigieg breaks down DEI for everyday folks…
“The opposite of diversity is uniformity. The opposite of equity is inequity. The opposite of inclusion is exclusion.” @petebuttigieg.bsky.social
Our problem: too many value uniformity over inclusion and they’re the ones running the government.

They want to end the USPS
Firing 10,000 Postal Employees in 30 days
Will have negative impacts
Right now Postal Carriers can barely keep up and do 3 jobs for each employee
DOGE is illegal and so are their practices

Honestly, I’m surprised it takes an intel specialist for people to see what’s right in front of them. People don’t see it. They’re actively ignoring it. It’s coming for all of them. No one is safe.

Anyone fighting DEI is racist. America is unrecognizable now.
It’s disgusting to live in a country led by hateful fascist oligarchs.

A vote yes is to legitimize #puppetking & #muskolini 's coup. Those Democrats voting "yes" will lose support from constituents. This is what Republicans want.
The real choice Democrats face is not between a continuing resolution that allows the government to function normally or a government shutdown.
Under the Trump regime, the government is not functioning normally. It is already shutting down.
Why vote to legitimize Trump's coup?

I tried to fact check this bizarre answer on @maddow.msnbc.com by trying to get in contact with DOGE. There’s no phone number or email publicly available. If a Member of Congress couldn’t get in touch with DOGE how do they expect anyone else to?
