Missouri’s current AG, Andrew Bailey, is the worst in recent memory and that’s saying a lot because Josh Hawley was also a Missouri AG…

So the crowd that screams private business should be able to hire whoever they want and discrimination isn’t a thing, is suing a private company for hiring who they want and it’s discrimination? No wonder MAGA is so happy ignorance is truly bliss!

That’s the goal. Not going after companies that just get Fed funding. They want completely private companies to get in line and Bondi said they’ll be criminally investigating. This joke of a policy isn’t a crime. None of this makes sense. It just makes them fascist.

It's unclear how any company can be sued for hiring practices that attempt to overcome racial bias. Surely it's up to shareholders to take exception to corporate practices and voice their concerns at the annual meeting. This is so performative and MAGA driven. Sickening waste of tax dollars.
