In war on democracy, partisan gerrymandering allow more republican states to manipulate electoral maps to ensure elections are predetermined in their favor. For example in Texas, 95% of population growth came from people of color in past decade. But Texas only drew 2 new seats in areas with white majorities instead. Apparently, they are afraid of voters. To avoid cheating, all states should have non-partisan independent gerrymandering commissions.

Goose-stepping moron, EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin, on Sunday defended the Der Führer's move to repeal the so-called endangerment finding that planet-warming pollution from fossil fuels endangers human health.
Trump's conservative/republican EPA is in a public comment period on its proposal to repeal all greenhouse gas emissions regulations for motor vehicles, since they stem from the 2009 finding.

[Der Führer of the MAGA Reich] is trying to extort $1 Billion from UCLA. Will the racist-in-the-Oval pull off the heist?
The proposed demand prohibits overnight demonstrations and *DEMANDS* the school to revise its policies and procedures on protests [to what trump desires]
It also requires UCLA to discontinue DEI scholarships and provide a resolution monitor with admissions data.
The UCLA hospital and medical school will also be expected to stop providing gender-affirming care.[to appease the racist US president]
In return for submitting to trump's extortion, UCLA’s $584 million funding would be restored and the school would be eligible for future federal grants and contracts [unless trump decides to extort further].

This is just a partisan flip from what Biden did when in office. Trump is making universities choose if they want the federal funding or not and in order to get the funding they have to meet the requirements that the TNC set. Biden did the same thing, strong arm tactics like EV mandates and DEI incentivization.
If UCLA or Harvard or any institution wants to follow their agenda then they have to do so without federal funding. Its petty and extreme but both sides do it to get what they want.
What happens when DEI is taken to extremes is the other side reacts in extremes, thats what happened here.

Yes, true! ..............although not equivalent, in regards to UCLA, which is what my post is specifying. UCLA.
It is akin to the "score is 50 - 13 argument"....Yes, both teams are scoring.....but one side is doing far more damage. [specific to UCLA]

Bubba is getting shipped out to Iceland to become the Ambassador there.
He lacked any tax policy expertise, supported the dismantling of the IRS while in Congress, Republican senators defended & voted for him. Then the Birther Maniac kicked his ass to the curb almost immediately.
Grandpa Fuckup is insane.
