At Tokyo Pride, Daiwa Securities Group CEO Ogino Akihiko said he isn't on board with the anti-DEI fever gripping companies in the wake of Trump's rise. Ogino plans to *strengthen* DEI initiatives at Daiwa, saying they "establish an environment where employees can excel."
Steve Schmidt:
"Fascism has come to America wrapped in the flag and carrying the cross, and it has deployed the United States military; against who? Trump's enemies, half the country as it turns out, and let me just say, if you hate half the people who live in your nation, it's impossible for you to love your country, but maybe...Trump doesn't love the country. In fact, it's clearly so. Trump loves Trump, Trump loves power..."

Is #Trump losing his grip or lying - not sure it makes a difference. He knows he is losing and is scrambling to try to dig out. #LosAngeles

Just heard from my contact at Job Corps that they’re losing all funding and shutting down. This is/was a federal (D of Labor) program providing career training in the trades for low-income youth. The program in Long Beach also offered housing, which in El Lay is even more valuable than the training. So now they’re in the position of helping participants find places to live so they don’t end up on the streets. It was never about waste fraud or abuse.
This sickens me. #trumpisadictator #8647

LTG Hertling on Nicole Wallace show said parades are good to celebrate a victory or the Army’s 250th birthday. It’s okay to be proud of your service. Young soldiers like to explain what they do. I agree with that.
What’s NOT ok is that this parade is to celebrate Trump’s birthday. He said people who protest, hate our country. Nope, we protesters hate YOU Trump!🤬🖕🏼
