. . ."And America can return to what it was always meant to be: a land of opportunity, not a land of engineered outcomes. The end of DEI begins with the end of the Department of Education. Now, President Trump and the Congress must do their jobs — defund the DOE." Gregory Lyakhov

End the Department of Education to End DEI "My ancestors were murdered in the Holocaust. My family suffered under the iron grip of the Soviet Union, stripped of their rights, silenced, and treated as second-class citizens because of their identity. They came to America with nothing — no wealth, no connections, no privilege. Just the hope that, in this country, hard work would be enough. And for the longest time, but especially after the civil rights revolution of the 1960s, that’s what America stood for: a place where effort, not ancestry, determined your future.
"But then came Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) — a policy that claimed to fight discrimination but, in reality, created a new form of it. DEI wasn’t about fairness; it was about reshaping the system so that race mattered more than merit. It told students like me that my achievements weren’t the most important thing — my skin color was. That’s not just wrong. That’s racism.
"This framework of racial preferences and social engineering didn’t emerge in a vacuum. It was cultivated by a bureaucracy designed to exert ideological control over education: the U.S. Department of Education. Created in 1979 under the Carter administration, the Department has steadily expanded its reach, using its regulatory power to impose policies that prioritize identity over achievement. It has been the enforcement arm of DEI, wielding its influence over school districts, universities, and research institutions that rely on federal funding." . . .
Department Of Education Cuts Staff By 50 Percent
. . .“As the president and Secretary McMahon have noted repeatedly, what we are doing right now in education is simply not working. Seventy percent of kids cannot read proficiently by the time they reach high school, we have spent over $1 trillion at the federal level since the department was created, and test scores and outcomes have plummeted even before pandemic-related school closures drove down performance even more,” the official stated. “But, in the meantime, the bureaucracy has grown, and we have a department now that exists largely to oversee contractors, add strains, and in many cases do duplicative efforts across the department.” . . .
Whoopi Goldberg Claims Trump Ruined Biden’s Wonderful Economy Without Once Mentioning High Prices
“Let me just remind you about the Biden economy, okay?” Goldberg began. “The economy added 16.6 million jobs and gross domestic product grew 12.6%. They are the only administration in history to have created jobs every single month. But wait, there’s more. They achieved the lowest average unemployment in 50 years. Wealth adjusted for inflation rose a record 37% for the median American household and Americans filed a record 21 million new small business applications, the most in any presidential administration.”
