Okay, so that's not something that you see every day. But as for the less famous protesters, the GOP says that many of them are actually being paid by power brokers like George Soros and LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman.

Unfortunately, other protests are making news because they're going far beyond peaceful singing or carrying signs. We're now seeing protesters attacking Tesla dealerships, manufacturing facilities, and even charging stations with Molotov cocktails, gunfire, arson, things of that nature. Just a sampling here.

Hamilton was set to run from March 3rd to April 26th next year, but in a statement, Seller said, our show simply cannot, in good conscience, participate and be a part of this new culture that is being imposed on the Kennedy Center.

So its 2025 annual report filed last Tuesday is missing the DEI commitments that were boilerplate for BlackRock investor letters in recent years. Instead, it now has strong meritocracy language.
