#SteveScalise Knows Exactly What Led to the #BourbonStreet Attack: #DEI Initiatives
#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,” https://theintercept.com/2025/01/02/steve-scalise-bourbon-street-new-orleans-attack/

As #Scalise’s #speaker #bid #collapses, #Republicans float working with #Democrats.

“I don’t think there has been legitimate #outreach,” from #Republicans, a senior #Democratic #staffer told #Semafor. “Sure, those #Republican #members talk to the #press, but not to #MinorityLeader #HakeemJeffries or the #leadership.”

Republicans nominate ‘Klu Klux Klan' member without the baggage for House Speaker 👻

“By a vote of 113 to 99 during a closed-door party meeting, Mr. #Scalise turned back a challenge by Representative Jim #Jordan of Ohio, the chairman of the Judiciary Committee and a favorite of the hard right. His candidacy will now go to the #House floor, where chaos reigned”
