Right now, some of America's biggest corporations are playing a dangerous double game. They're plastering their websites with commitments to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) while secretly funding the very people working to destroy these values. Let's break it down:

• Mastercard claims DEI is "part of our core values and underpins everything we do." Yet they're funding a platform for anti-DEI rhetoric.

• Coca-Cola declares that "diversity, equity, and inclusion are at the heart of our values." Apparently, that includes supporting those who fight against these very principles.

• Meta (formerly Facebook) says diversity is a "must-have." But they're happy to sponsor events featuring those who actively work against such goals.

• DoorDash asserts that "DEI is a tenet of our company because it is the right thing to do." Unless it seems, there's a chance to align with anti-DEI forces when they think no one's looking.

This is painful. This is horrible and feels a bit like a betrayal. But I have no choice. Bobby Kennedy Jr. was my friend and co-author. We wrote stories together for Rolling Stone. Bobby introduced my New York Times bestseller and wrote a chapter for Billionaires and Ballot Bandits. And, with Jesse Jackson, we co-authored the Number 1 selling adult single issue comic book of all time, Steal Back Your Vote.

The Terrorist Watch List is managed by the FBI Terrorist Screening Center. The FBI does not publicly confirm or deny any individuals on the Terrorist Watch List. However, "No Fly List" is a subset of the Terrorist Watch List and is overseen by The Transportation Security Administration (TSA). The no-fly list contains names of individuals prohibited from "boarding an aircraft when flying within, to, from, and over the United States." These individuals are part of the federal terrorist watchlist administered by the FBI Terrorist Screening Center.

The Terrorist Watch List and the No-Fly List were created by George W. Bush's administration in 2001 and have continued to be used until this day. There are two types of No-Fly Lists. The second No-Fly List is maintained by individual airlines for unruly passengers. The No-Fly List is different from the Terrorist Watch List, which is a much longer list of people said to be suspected of some involvement with terrorism. Based on Wikipedia, as of June 2014, the Terrorist Watch List is estimated to contain over 2.5 million people whereas the No-Fly list has about 1.8 million.
