President Donald Trump signed an executive order Wednesday prohibiting federal funding of K-12 schools that promote Critical Race Theory or radical gender ideology.

“In recent years, however, parents have witnessed schools indoctrinate their children in radical, anti-American ideologies while deliberately blocking parental oversight.”
This is in keeping with Trump’s campaign promise to defund any school that taught “Critical Race Theory, transgender insanity, and other inappropriate racial, sexual, or political content.”
The secretary of Education will have 90 days to lay out a strategy on how to end CRT and gender ideology lessons in schools. Trump nominated Linda McMahon as his education secretary. She has yet to be confirmed by the Senate.
The executive order will reinstate the 1776 Commission, which Trump created in 2020 to promote “patriotic education” through increased understanding of U.S. history and its founding principles.
Former President Joe Biden ended the commission within his first 100 days in office.
Hillsdale College President Larry P. Arrn served as chairman of the President’s Advisory 1776 Commission.
Trump ordered the U.S. attorney general to work with state attorneys general and local district attorneys to pursue legal action against teachers and school officials who attempt to “transition” children.
“In many cases, innocent children are compelled to adopt identities as either victims or oppressors solely based on their skin color and other immutable characteristics,” the order says. “In other instances, young men and women are made to question whether they were born in the wrong body and whether to view their parents and their reality as enemies to be blamed.”
“These practices not only erode critical thinking but also sow division, confusion, and distrust, which undermine the very foundations of personal identity and family unity,” adds the order.
This is Trump’s latest move in his war on diversity, equity, and inclusion and radical gender ideology initiatives promoted by the Biden-Harris administration.
On Tuesday, Trump signed an executive order prohibiting federal funding and support for irreversible child gender transition “mutilation.” On Monday, he signed an order prohibiting “gender radicalism” and eliminating DEI from the military.
I’m loving the daily liberal meltdown. Keep on keeping on!
We are all born innocent. Racism is taught by racists.
Critical Race Theory and Gender Ideology IS NOT WHY WE SEND OUR KIDS TO SCHOOL. JUST SAY NO TO DRUGS.

These guys are going to flip.
They added in that their mission is gender affirmation and inclusivity... For kids on the Autism/adhd/ behavioral spectrum.
But how will young students learn to hate the Founding Fathers?
Republican Representative from Missouri wants to tank the Rs. Federal Abortion Ban bill coming.
Holy Hell.
Make it stop. So much winning.
‘Tould be immeasurably better to just ban the ignorant left from education. Remember the prime rule of the multiverse: Everything the left touches turns to s***.
Just abolish the dept. of education. No reason we should send a dollar in tax money to DC to get one cent in return. The Education Department is an antiquated piece of crap, doing nothing but giving bureaucrats useless jobs. Has education gotten better because of it? No. So why does it exist?
This guy is just so on target.
He’s had FOUR YEARS to stew over the stolen election. And FOUR YEARS to make his plans.
Chunky Schoeshineboy and his band of RATS are kicking America’s ass, or so he says. The boy is off his meds again.
I know. These moves will lower gas and grocery prices by next week.
What a concept, teaching American history from its founding and the Constitution. Teaching American history from a pro-American perspective, unthinkable.
One of the leftist NGOs that received government funding will fight it on grounds as unconstitutional.
This will prove interesting and fun to watch.
NEA will not comply, no matter what.
They’ll go to prison and have hunger strikes and what not.
Buy popcorn futures.
CRT is just an extension of Marx CT.
Every student should be taught the evils of Marxism.
Democrats claim CRT is not taught in K-12 so they should not have a problem with this at all
…and a high power round nicking his cranium with ALL of the legacy media oddly tuned in all at once.
Piss me off. Just sayin’
Send tampons to Tim Walz Minnesota
