2023-03-21 14:03:03 Norfolk Southern Spent Years Pushing Woke Agenda Before Derailment

Norfolk Southern Corporation spent years working to advance diversity, equity, and inclusion ideology (DIE) and meet environmental, social, and governance (ESG) goals prior to the Feb. 3 train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio.

The company contributed $275,000 to historically black colleges and universities and appointed several officials who focus on DEI, pushing the LGBTQ agenda.

Sounds like they had priorities other than safety!

French journalist Olivier Dubois was freed Monday after being held hostage by Islamic extremists for nearly two years in Mali.

Dubois was kidnapped in April 2021 from Northern Mali, a region of the country an al-Qaida and the Islamic State group strong hold.

"It's huge for me to be here, to be free, I wanted to pay tribute to Niger for its know-how in this delicate mission and to pay tribute to France and to all those who allowed me to be here today,” Dubois said.

2023-03-21 12:27:54 Credit Suisse Crash: Western Bond Market Under Threat after Swiss Bank Rescue

Credit Suisse was forced to write down to zero an eye-watering $17bn of its Additional Tier 1 bonds, while shareholders will receive payouts as part of the govt-brokered UBS takeover.

AT1 bonds were introduced after the 2008 financial crisis, to increase banks’ safety buffers, while tackling the “too big to fail” risk that they might need govt support in a crisis.

The move has triggered renewed pressure on the global banking system - usually, equity investments would be classed as secondary to AT1 bonds - with investors scrambling to assess whether the same could happen for their holdings of AT1 debt in other banks - a market worth more than $275bn.

2023-03-21 08:01:57 Brendan Fraser’s Oscar Is ‘Fatphobia,’ Wokerati Claim

The actor’s award for the film The Whale - in which he plays an obese English teacher - highlights the discrimination and oppression of the diabetes-inflicted, Hollywoke commentators claim.

The flick is “deeply harmful” too fat people because Fraser - who has struggled with weight issues after being sexually abused by Hollywood insiders - lost weight and is ‘non-fat.’

Chubby commentator Rebecca Bodenheimer - who has not seen the movie by her own admission - also disapproves of the feature because it was “directed by two thin men” and found reviews “triggering.”

Are we surprised that a flabby woke commentator is ‘full of it’?
