👕 Marks & Spencer has released a new collection of lingerie inspired by… George Floyd.

The British retailer has dropped a new collection of nude-colored underwear that the company said was partly inspired by "the global conversation on racial inequality following the horrific death" of George Floyd in the US last year.

The new collection comes in five shades for different skin tones instead of the usual light hue and has new names. For example, M&S removed the name Tobacco used to describe brown underwear.

Of course, the company was immediately trashed on the internet, with many accusing M&S of trying to be ultra woke while profiting from a noble cause.

💸 Nearly 60 percent of Americans will end up paying higher taxes as a result of President Joe Biden’s proposed tax plan, even though he has repeatedly claimed his tax hikes won’t affect anyone who earns less than $400,000 a year.

🏌️ The Trump Organization recently filed a lawsuit against New York City over a decision by city leadership to cancel the company’s lucrative contract to operate the Trump Golf Links at Ferry Point, a public 18-hole golf course in the Bronx borough.

Statement by Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the United States of America

The story that I asked the Department of Justice to go after ratings-challenged (without Trump!) Saturday Night Live, and other late-night Losers, is total Fake News. It was fabricated, there were no sources, and yet the Lamestream Media goes with it. I did say, however, that Alec Baldwin has no talent, certainly when it comes to imitating me. The one who had what it took was Darrell Hammond. With all of that being said, however, I do believe that the 100% one-sided shows should be considered an illegal campaign contribution from the Democrat Party, hard to believe I got 75 million votes (the most of any sitting President) despite all of that, together with a very Fraudulent Election. 2024 or before!
