McDonald's said they made these changes in light of the shifting legal landscape, and they specifically cited the 2023 Supreme Court ruling that found the consideration of race in college admissions at Harvard is in violation of the 14th Amendment. Basically, McDonald's doesn't want legal trouble for racial or sex discrimination.

And there's also the specter of potential lawsuits from the incoming Trump administration, which strongly opposes DEI initiatives. But there's another reason for the timing of this change, and that leads us to conservative activist Robbie Starbuck. He's been credited with triggering DEI reversals from more than a dozen corporations.

Through investigative work, Starbuck and his team have exposed DEI practices from corporations like Toyota, Nissan, Lowe's, Tractor Supply, Walmart, and John Deere, just to name a few. And all of those companies have quickly and publicly backed away from those policies.

Yeah, there are a few. For example, Costco put out a statement last week about their commitment to DEI. Some important context, though, that statement was made in response to a proposal to evaluate the risk of Costco having DEI initiatives. Shareholders will vote on that next month, so we'll have to see how that vote goes and how Costco proceeds from there.

Hey, Georgia. So this toll imposes a $9 charge on vehicles entering Midtown Manhattan and below that's south of 60th Street during peak hours, which are pretty much all day long. On weekdays, peak hours are considered 5 a.m. to 9 p.m., and on weekends, 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., and there's still a toll on off hours, though it is reduced. It's also worth highlighting that $9 is just the starting point.
