CEOs Push Back Against Trump’s DEI Rollback
As Trump dismantles DEI federally, CEOs Sewing (Deutsche Bank), Dimon (JPMorgan), Solomon (Goldman Sachs), Robbins (Cisco), and Vachris (Costco) stand firm. “No one can argue a diverse workforce is better,” says Robbins. DEI is a strength, not a liability.

Markets Are Sounding the Alarm—Trump Isn’t Listening
As soon as the tariff announcement dropped, the S&P 500 tanked. Wall Street knows what Trump won’t admit—his trade war hurts growth, fuels inflation. Brace for Saturday—prices rise. Tariffs don’t “keep promises,” they raise costs for everyone.
On Friday, January 31, 2025, the S&P 500 declined by 0.5%, closing at 6,040.53. This drop was influenced by the White House's announcement of new tariffs: 25% on imports from Canada and Mexico, and 10% on goods from China, effective Saturday.

Germany 🇩🇪 has announced the cancellation of a scheduled meeting with Rwandan 🇷🇼 officials next month, citing Rwanda’s involvement in the ongoing conflict in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
The clashes, driven by a rapid offensive from the M23 armed group and reportedly supported by Rwandan forces, have intensified around Goma, leading to a deepening humanitarian crisis.
A spokesperson for Germany’s development ministry stated on Tuesday, “The government consultations planned for February with Rwanda have been cancelled.” The ministry emphasized that discussions on development cooperation would only resume if Rwanda and the M23 end their offensive and withdraw.
The German foreign ministry reinforced this stance on X (formerly Twitter), describing the offensive as a “flagrant violation of international law” and a significant obstacle to peace efforts in the region.
Germany, currently chairing the International Contact Group for the Great Lakes which includes the EU, France, the UK, and the United States has been vocal in its condemnation of the situation.
BLACK HISTORY IS EVERY MONTH!
AN ODE TO MY FATHER….. I miss you…RIP.
“A real man is one who shows empathy, respect, compassion, and accountability for their actions".
The absence of fear is not replaced with bravado, but with humility, and the resolve to do what is necessary to take care of family, and community, while upholding personal integrity based on learned values, as the bedrock for his actions. Respect is given when respect is received. NOBODY, AND I MEAN NOBODY, IS SUPERIOR TO ANOTHER HUMAN BEING.
