A Running Record of Calamity
From the Huffington Post -
I Gave Donald Trump A Chance, And Then He...
By Jesse Mechanic, Contributor
1. Restarted the Keystone XL and Dakota Access Pipelines.
2. Instituted a federal hiring freeze that blocked 2,000 vital, new positions at the VA, and indefinitely suspended Army childcare programs for vets.
3. Approved a raid in Yemen that killed 30 people including at least 10 civilians, many of whom were women and children, as well as U.S. Navy Seal Ryan Owens.
4. Reinstated and strengthened the global gag rule thereby pulling all world-wide federal funding from any institutions that even attempt to educate patients about abortion.
5. Rescinded federal bathroom protections for trans students.
(From me - Click the link below to see the rest. There are 57 and counting).

My Hispanic son: Why is Apple so white at the top?
By Tony Maldonado
When Apple and over 90 tech companies filed an amicus brief in opposition to President Donald Trump’s immigration moratorium, I was dumbfounded to see an industry wade into a political debate in the name of protecting diversity in our country, when that same industry has done so little to foster diversity and inclusion in its own ranks among senior management and boards.
