/1 @mcuban and others have suggested DEI policies in America do not constitute illegal race discrimination.

Nothing could be more untrue.

DEI employs illegal racial preferences, quotas, exclusions and glaring bigotry against whites, Asians and males.

Want receipts? Read on:
/2 We just filed a federal civil rights complaint against French pharma company, Sanofi.

The evidence strongly suggests Sanofi’s management has created a culture of systemic racism.

Sanofi’s “Diverse Slate Policy” requires the “Talent Acquisition team” for each role to present “a minimum of one person of color and one female in each slate presented to a hiring leader” to achieve “at least 50% diverse representation of 25% POC and 25% female representation.”Image
Image
/3 We filed another civil rights complaint against Macy’s.

Macy’s has a plan that explicitly instructs management to “[a]chieve more ethnic diversity by 2025 at senior director level and above, with a goal of 30 percent,” as well as to initiate a “12-month program designed to strengthen leadership skills for a selected group of top-talent managers and directors of Black/African-American, Hispanic-Latinx, Native American and Asian descent.”Image
Image
/4 We filed a lawsuit against Amazon for offering a $10,000 bonus to its delivery service partners- but only for those partners who are Black, Latino, or Native American. Whites and Asians are ineligible for this bonus.

This is a clear violation of the Civil Rights Act of 1866. Image
/5 We also sued Progressive Insurance for offering $25,000 grants to ten “black-owned small businesses to use toward the purchase of a commercial vehicle.”
Image
Image
/6 We filed a lawsuit against Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta, the Association of Independent Commercial Producers (AICP), and entertainment industry companies for engaging in racial discrimination.

Meta was producing a TV commercial with the ad agency BBDO and the production company Something Ideal, Inc. AICP’s members are responsible for 80-85% of all motion picture ads in the United States. The AICP created the Double the Line program, which creates extra positions on set only for “BIPOC” individuals.Image
/7 We secured a colossal victory for equality when Biden and his allies in Congress formally repealed a racially discriminatory farm loan-forgiveness program after we sued to have it declared unconstitutional. aflegal.org/major-victory-…
/8 We crushed the Biden Administration’s discriminatory relief program which awarded preferential treatment to select racial groups under the Restaurant Revitalization Fund. aflegal.org/biden-administ…
/9 Some programs even seek to distribute life-saving medical care based on race…

For example, Utah, Minnesota, and New Mexico rescinded their racist practice of distributing COVID-19 treatment based on race after we threatened legal action.
/10 Mars — the makers of M&M, Snickers, and other candy — openly touts its discriminatory quota "to increase racial minority representation among management in its U.S.-based consumer-packaged goods businesses by forty percent."

We filed a federal civil rights complaint against Mars last April.Image
Image
Image
/11 BlackRock has established “The BlackRock Founders Scholarship,” which unlawfully limits, segregates, and/or classifies applicants for employment based on race – a patent violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

We also filed a federal civil rights complaint against BlackRock for this illegal conduct.Image
/12 The list of companies engaged in this illegal, racist conduct goes on and on…

And we’re taking action against:

/13 All of these race-based programs and apparent quotas are illegal under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964: Image

/1🚨BREAKING — AFL filed a federal civil rights complaint against Cherry Creek School District for branding student misconduct “culturally appropriate” and blocking student discipline based on race.

@TheJusticeDept and @usedgov must investigate.

The facts are OUTRAGEOUS. Image
/2 AFL’s complaint exposes a district-wide system of race-based decision making in which @CCSDK12 officials replaced equal treatment with ideological favoritism — including in student discipline.

Staff say this racial framework left them with “no ability to enforce anything.” Image
@CCSDK12 /3 AFL obtained whistleblower recordings revealing CCSD officials labeled disruptive misconduct by a Black student “culturally appropriate,” blamed staff concerns on the “whiteness of the school,” and used racial framing to override student discipline.

/1 Former VP Harris claimed that the Biden White House wanted to have separation from DOJ decisions.

Obviously, that’s a LIE.

We exposed—multiple times—how they dictated DOJ’s actions while claiming they were “routine law enforcement.”

🧵

/2 In April 2023, AFL exposed how the Biden White House initiated involvement in the classified documents case against President Trump long before NARA’s official referral to DOJ.

AFL uncovered documents confirming the prosecution was a sham from the start.

/3 The investigation revealed the Biden White House directed a “special access request” that enabled the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago, but bureaucrats weaponized the government to mislead Congress about the White House’s role in the raid of President Trump’s home.

/1🏛️NEW SCOTUS BRIEF —

AFL is urging the Supreme Court to review the lower courts’ deeply flawed rulings in E. Jean Carroll’s biased lawsuit — and correct the egregious injustice inflicted on President Trump.

Every litigant deserves impartial justice. Image
/2 AFL’s brief explains that the courts admitted unreliable, prejudicial evidence that would usually be excluded — while blocking key rebuttal evidence that the jury should have been allowed to hear.
/3 From day one, the district court manipulated established evidentiary rules, allowing stale, unverified accusations while suppressing facts that contradicted the narrative. 

The result?

A verdict that defies basic logic.
