    #Scalise claimed diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives bore part of the blame for #lawenforcement’s failure to disrupt attack that left 15 people dead and dozens more injured.
    “Some of these agencies have gotten so wrapped up in the DEI movement — call it #wokeness, call it whatever you want — where their main focus is on diversity and inclusion as opposed to security,” theintercept.com/2025/01/02/st

  6. Pousse cafés are a class of seldom-seen layered cocktails. The term itself is French, and means "push coffee", or #coffee chaser—the idea seems to be that these drinks were introduced as a #digestif, or an after-dinner, after-coffee drink to aid digestion. Personally anyone my age thinks of a roll of Lifesaver candies when seeing this drink. Stingray (definitely an alias), our #BourbonStreet (adjacent) bartender claimed to be an expert and we tested his claim, ordering dozens of these.
