Wow, now Goldman Sachs runs both Canada and England (while Russia runs the United States).

"Who is Mark Carney, the next prime minister of Canada?...

"Carney ran the Bank of Canada from 2008 to 2013 and the Bank of England from 2013 to 2020. After helping Canada manage the worst impacts of the 2008 financial crisis, he was recruited to become the first non-Brit to run the Bank of England since it was founded in 1694.

"In 2020, he began serving as the United Nations’ special envoy for climate action and finance.

"Carney is a former Goldman Sachs executive. He worked for 13 years in London, Tokyo, New York and Toronto, before being appointed deputy governor of the Bank of Canada in 2003."

The following companies, who turned their backs on us by eliminating DEI and/or no longer providing support for DEI, should no longer be financially supported by anyone who is DEI or an ally. That means don't purchase their products or services, invest in their stocks, wear their products, buy/renew their memberships, etc. #wewillneverforget #target_corp #meta #pepsico #amazon #goldmansachs #google #mcdonalds #walmart #ford #lowes #harleydavidson #BrownForman #johndeere #TractorSupply

“These seven banks have supplied Israel’s genocide in Gaza to the tune of $20bn”

“Seven US and European investment banks have been propping up Israel’s brutal genocide in Gaza to the tune of nearly $20bn. And a certain notorious company in particular is dripping in bankrolling complicity: Goldman Sachs”

Canary · These seven banks have supplied Israel's genocide in Gaza to the tune of $20bnThe worst offender is Goldman Sachs. The company has underwritten more than $7bn in Israeli military bonds - directly killing Palestinians

profit per employee comparison of:

- #Tether
- #Nvidia
- #GoldmanSachs
- #Meta
- #Apple

shows very clearly how profitable it can be to run a noncompliant bank / money laundry for terrorists, drug lords, and rogue nuclear states that derives 100% of its income from the government teat (especially when you put the owners of that noncompliant bank / money laundry in the White House and let them write their own financial regulations).

Meanwhile, and in spite of Trump’s plans to target the private sector in his clampdown on diversity, equity and inclusion, some companies are staying the course. Here’s @abc’s story, which was shared by our @CultureDesk, plus a link to Pew Research data that indicates what Americans actually think of DEI.

Continued thread

Update: Costco isn't the only company sticking with DEI. Here's @abc's story on how Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase & Co.have also reaffirmed their commitment. A Goldman Sachs representative told the network: "We strongly believe that organizations benefit from diverse perspectives, and Goldman Sachs is committed to operating our programs and policies in compliance with the law.” At the second link, find recent stats about workers' perspectives on DEI from Pew Research. About half of workers (52%) said focusing on increasing DEI at work is mainly a good thing, down from 56% in February 2023, while 21% said it was bad, up from 16%.
