 Headline USA: Pentagon Gets Rid of DEI Evidence Before Trump Takes Office 'They’re being archived as we speak. They are full-bore focused on cleaning up anything DEI-related...' DEI is a failed ideology that substitutes identity for merit.  The goal should always be hiring the best and bightest.

 The Blaze: Texas Governor Greg Abbott and the Public Utility Commission of Texas have identified 61 possible sites across the state for new nuclear reactors. A recently-released state report on Advanced Nuclear Energy is hoping to bring in over $50 billion in new economic output to Texas, along with $27 billion in income for Texas workers. Governor Abbott announced the state's new plan, saying the plants would enhance the "reliability" of the state grid and provide "affordable, dispatchable power" to residents.
