“President Donald Trump is waging a war against the American working class, and the elimination of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programming is one of the first major battles.”
Commentary: Eliminating DEI Hurts Everyone, Rural People Too
The new Administration is using DEI as a tool for scapegoating and pushing through otherwise blatantly discriminatory policies.

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.

In its simplest terms, the apparent demise of #USAID is the result of the world's richest man ending a program that helps millions of poor people. You don't need a Ph.D. in moral theology to see why this is an evil. You can just read Jesus's parables on the rich and the poor.

An adorable #Roman shoe, made for a #baby too young to walk. The shoe imitates the footwear of Roman soldiers (caligae). The cut-out design would have shown off the kid’s socks!

This is Musk's new pinned tweet.

- It's Latin meaning "no one provokes me and gets away with it."
- He attributes it to Sulla, the Roman general who marched on Rome, named himself dictator and launched a notorious reign of terror, executing much of the city's elite.
- It's never linked to Sulla.

bluegrass is one of the most intricate, influential, & multifaceted music genres of all time. its hatred is almost always classist and anti-appalachian. as appalachians, we need to take back the shame of engaging with our culture. we aren’t stupid. we aren’t useless. be proud #appalachia #bluegrass
