What's a possible legal outcome of states challenging this? Could there be a situation where these cuts affect red states but not blue states?

When firms like Apple and Google take the hint and give up their DEI programs, that's the result.

If corporations don't track how many minority employees they hire, that number will stay low. That's the unfortunate reality.

I doubt that the US unionization rate can make up for this.

But what Trump and Musk are doing isn't about corporate DEI. Just like anti-CRT laws aren't about CRT.

Trump wants the government and corporations to hire fewer women and black people. That's basically all this is

From a historical perspective, there's some truth to that. After the Regan admin started union busting in the open, corporations stopped pretending that "we have great relationship with our union." Instead,"We are committed to diversity" became a public relations go-to.

Who would have anticipated that he won't follow up on that promise.

Why do they write these stuff? Does despair sell papers?
