Their products were once synonymous with American freedom and prestige in the world, but now their CEOs have turned the companies into oppressive gulags of groupthink and anti-white racism. If American Express employees carried out the ideas suggested to them by the company, to treat customers differently based on race, they would violate a myriad of federal civil rights law and financial regulations against discrimination. As both of these companies near their annual shareholder meetings, Consumers\u2019 Research is calling out their disgraceful conduct and reminding them of their fiduciary duty to their shareholders and their moral duty to their customers, regardless of race.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span>Breitbart News <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2022\/03\/29\/consumers-research-launches-ad-campaign-exposing-blackrocks-climate-activism-cozy-ties-to-china\/\">reported <\/a>about Consumers\u2019 Research\u2019s previous ad campaign targeting BlackRock CEO Larry Fink\u2019s climate activism and its cozy ties to the Chinese government.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<p><i>Sean Moran is a congressional reporter for Breitbart News.
