The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

#SleepyDon has pledged to eliminate DEI positions in colleges in order to defend "western civilization" and to seize the endowments of any institution of higher learning that is practicing equity. In a September 2020 executive order, Trump banned DEI training in federal government and for nonprofits and contractors who do business with the federal government.

Of course such nonsense appeals to the cult, especially the White Nationalist wing of the party.

Yet Trump Media & Technology Group has a Diversity and Inclusion Policy:

The Board is committed to creating and maintaining a culture of diversity and inclusion. The Company will be better able to grow and improve with a diverse Board, management, and team of employees. Such commitment is and will be a factor in identifying and nominating director candidates at both the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and Board levels.

Huh.

In addition, Trump Media & Technology Group also believes in equality, in language affirming gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, and race:

Additionally, the Board believes in and supports equal opportunity in employment to all persons and strongly encourages management to embrace the unique contributions an employee or candidate can bring to the Company and its culture in terms of their education, opinions, culture, ethnicity, race, sex, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, nationality, color, religion, veteran’s status, disability and other life experiences. The Company does not tolerate sexual or other unlawful harassment or discrimination by any employee, volunteer, vendor, contractor, consultant, customer or visitor.

In short, DEI for me but not for thee.

Ain't that a kick in the cult head?
