Best Buy’s on a roll to see how many different parts of Title VII it can violate in one series of interactions with James O'Keefe. First race discrimination as company policy, then religious discrimination by one of its supervisors. What’s next, discrimination against men?

BEST BUY MANAGEMENT PROGRAM: MUST IDENTIFY AS BLACK, LATINO, HISPANIC, ASIAN, OR PACIFIC ISLANDER. Si, se puede!

from The Street, 

Best Buy  (BBY) - the national electronics retail chain, now has a target on its back after O'Keefe Media Group published pictures of an application for a minority management program. 

One of the requirements for the program is that the applicant identify as Black, Latino, Hispanic, Asian or Pacific Islander. White people were excluded from applying for the minority management program, and this sent some of them wild on social media.

CA, REPUBLICAN, DOUG LAMALFA: “What per cent of our atmosphere is CO2, carbon dioxide? The answer is 0.04%. Not 1%. Not half of a %."

These folks are not part of any climate or CO2 panel.  Read their titles.  They're representing industries across the country.  Yes, they may be grifters on behalf of "Buy American" neocons, but I wouldn't expect these guys to know what greenhouse gases are or how much CO2 is in the atmosphere.  Still fun to watch.  Here is the entire hearing.  The California Congressman is Doug LaMalfa.

Well, I was able to identify the opening speaker, Mr. Rick Larsen from the state of Washington.  But he's not part of the CO2 panel.  

Okay, got it.  Here is the panel list.  The panel consists of the 4 members up front.  And they make it easy.  Here is the list from left to right, from 1st speaker to last.  

Witness List: 

Mr. Marc D. Williams, Executive Director, Texas Department of Transportation, On Behalf of the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials | Written Testimony

Mr. Dwayne Boyd, Regional President, CRH, On Behalf of the National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association | Written Testimony

In 1890, 90% of U.S. women baked their own bread. By 1965, 78 out of every 100 pounds of flour a US woman brought into her kitchen came in the form of baked bread or another ready-prepared good.

Today, baking bread is an amusement, not a necessary chore.   https://t.co/j4I6er0VNY
