Paramount just paid Trump a bribe for merger approval. When Democrats retake power, I’ll be first in line calling for federal charges. In the meantime, state prosecutors should make the corporate execs who sold out our democracy answer in court, today.

Seriously — do not say, “DEI.” Spell it out. Insist that anything your organization publishes spells it out also.
The more “DEI” becomes an autonomous thing, the less grounded it is in the widely held values of diversity, equity, and inclusion.
There’s a reason the bad guys never say it fully.
