    Brendan Carr, who was picked by President Trump to chair the Federal Communications Commission, said he's ordering an investigation into the
    Walt Disney Co. and its ABC television network over concerns that they are "promoting invidious forms of DEI discrimination," referring to diversity, equity and inclusion practices.

    In a letter to Disney CEO Robert Iger, Carr said the FCC's Enforcement
    Bureau will review whether Disney or ABC have violated any FCC equal employment opportunity regulations. He added that the probe will apply to
    both past and current policies.

    "Numerous reports indicate that Disney's leadership went all in on
    invidious forms of DEI discrimination a few years ago and apparently did
    so in a manner that infected many aspects of your company's decisions,"
    Carr wrote on Thursday.

    The inquiry comes after Disney scaled back its diversity efforts, either
    by dropping certain initiatives or softening language around DEI.

    You tried this in California in 1995. But this time is different.

    Such idiocy, insanity, hysteria. The government going after private companies because of Trump's demented DEI complex.

    Pure shakedown in public view, wonder how many million$ they'll extort
    from Disney.

    Well if you're a robber you have to go "where the money is" in the
    immortal words of Willie Sutton.

    It is why he was elected. White dudes have learned the USA is
    about to become a majority minority country. White dudes elected
    idjt to permanently, politically suppress swarthy people. It is
    the reason Pete Wilson et al were elected in California in 1995.
    Republicans have that success in California as a guide to winning
    nationwide.
