NASA in the not too far past published two comic books on their website featuring "Callie Rodriguez, the first woman to explore the Moon". Fictional, but leaning into the Artemis Project.
Just so happens that Callie is (a) a woman and (b) a person of colour.
Just so happens, too, that the Callie comics were deleted from NASA's website ... you know, that purge DEI nonsense.
Also happens, that Iceland Space Agency saved Callie on their website.

Whoever has an opinion of his own, and honestly expresses it, will be guilty of heresy. Heresy is what the minority believe; it is the name given by the powerful to the doctrine of the weak.

Trump moves to gut more agencies, targeting Voice of America, libraries, clean energy and National Monuments
Trump has signed an executive order seeking to eliminate several additional federal agencies, including one that oversees the federally funded media outlet 
️Voice of America (VOA), 
testing the limits of his authoritative power as he seeks to shrink the size and scope of the federal bureaucracy.
One order signed Friday night calls for the agencies
— some of which are focused on #minority business enterprises, #museum and #library services and #homelessness prevention
— to “be eliminated to the maximum extent consistent with applicable law.”
It also instructs the heads of agencies to “reduce the performance of their statutory functions and associated personnel to the minimum presence and function required by law,”
and submit a report to the Office of Management and Budget director #Russell #Vought confirming full compliance within seven days.
A second executive order revoked 19 executive actions signed by President Joe Biden that promoted #clean #energy and environmental goals.
The order terminates proclamations of #national #monuments created by Biden
and ends the use of the Defense Production Act to expand the U.S. manufacturing of clean energy technology
(including mandates for electric heat pumps and #solar #panels),
among other Biden-era policies

Oh, so now that #BlackPeople are arming themselves, it's suddenly "too intimidating" to walk around in #armor with #assault #rifles in public? The #2ndamendment is suddenly too overreaching??
GOOD. *GOOD.* Every #minority in #America should arm themselves #TODAY. Either we succeed in protecting ourselves, or we succeed in bringing about #guncontrol #laws. It's WIN-WIN. They are scared, that's how you know it's right.

#LeeZeldin’s move effectively ends 3 decades of work at the #EPA to try to ease the #pollution that burdens #poor & #minority communities, which are frequently located near #highways, #PowerPlants, #industrial plants & other polluting facilities. Studies have shown that people who live in those #communities have higher rates of #asthma, #HeartDisease & other #health problems, compared w/the national average.

There is some truth in what you toot. The only hope is for #Labor to be returned in a #minority govt with a left-wing crossbench. That ‘shock’ might get the Party to rebalance the Parliamentary #Caucus with more leftists and get the Party back to its core values.
An #AusElection25 outcome to do just that is not far fetched by any means. I’m betting on the newly registered voting cohorts do make it happen.
