In a Republic, actually
ā€œA federal judge on Thursday struck down two Trump administration actions aimed at eliminating diversity, equity and inclusion programs at the nation’s schools and universities. In her ruling, U.S. District Judge Stephanie Gallagher in Maryland found that the Education Department violated the law when it threatened to cut federal funding from educational institutions that continued with DEI initiatives.

The guidance has been on hold since April when three federal judges blocked various portions of the Education Department’s anti-DEI measures. The ruling Thursday followed a motion for summary judgment from the American Federation of Teachers and the American Sociological Association, which challenged the government’s actions in a February lawsuit.ā€


ā€œā€¦a campaign to end practices the Trump administration frames as discrimination against white and Asian American students.ā€

Trump is lying, as usual – DEI programs do not ā€˜discriminate’ against white and Asian students; in fact, Trump’s campaign against DEI programs is itself racist, bigoted, and hateful.

And yet another judge assumes illusions of grandeur fancying herself to be the elected President of the United States and therefore authorized to make such rulings. No court in the land is authorized to say what the government is or is not required to spend the taxpayer's money on.

The Constitution gives that authority to the Congress and President alone.

I hope hope hope SCOTUS puts an end to this kind of unconsitutional lawfare soon.
 
Damn, the Federalist Society fucked up with that one.....Another reason The Turtle is all back of the bus now.

The Left is simply dropping the name of DEI regarding these programs and keeping the curriculum.

The Left just ignores laws and rules they don't like.

We have seen ample evidence of this.

And once again, the Left gets their way with zero accountability.

This is easily the dumbest and most hilariously embarrassing MAGAt talking point. When you see someone say this, you know it's time to use smaller words for them.

Hello? Supreme Court?

Are you listening?
 
We need to weed out some of these liberal activist judges who think the judicial branch is the only branch of government. They make a mockery of our laws and waste a lot of everyone's time and money.

There's the dumbest talking point ever heard.

Again.
 
"I dont know what DEI is."

Close observers expect that on Day 1, President Donald Trump will reissue his executive order banning critical race theory throughout the federal government. We eagerly anticipate that order, but we also fervently hope that within the first 100 days of his new term, President Trump will take a further action that would render it largely superfluous: publish a Department of Justice Office of Legal Counsel (OLC) memorandum explaining that the so-called ā€œDiversity, Equity, and Inclusionā€ (DEI) regime isn’t just bad policy—it’s outright unconstitutional.

The argument could be bold, simple, and beautiful—not to mention legally unimpeachable. In a single sentence: DEI amounts to racial stereotyping that violates the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment.

This holding is compelled by the Supreme Courtā€˜s landmark 2023 affirmative action case, Students for Fair Admissions (SFFA) v. Harvard, and the precedents on which that case relies. In SFFA, Chief Justice John Roberts wrote that government ā€œmay never use race as a stereotype.ā€ States actors are not permitted to act on or in any way promote the doctrine that minorities ā€œalways (or even consistently) express some characteristic minority viewpoint on any issueā€ (citing Grutter v. Bollinger, a 2003 affirmative action case). Roberts explained that the prohibition on racial stereotyping is ā€œfound throughout our Equal Protection Clause jurisprudence more generally.ā€ The assumption that people of ā€œa particular race, because of their race, think alikeā€ is ā€œoffensive and demeaningā€ (citing Miller v. Johnson, a 1995 congressional redistricting case.) Such racial stereotyping ā€œcan only ’cause[] continued hurt and injury'ā€ (citing Edmonson v. Leesville Concrete Co., a 1991 case on peremptory challenges).

And in his SFFA concurrence, Justice Clarence Thomas further explained that ā€œas the Court’s opinions in these cases make clear, all racial stereotypes harm and demean individuals … [by] lumping people together … based on assumed inherited or ancestral traits.ā€

In American public life, DEI is nothing but the promotion of racial stereotypes through government speech. ā€œWhiteness.ā€ ā€œBlackness.ā€ ā€œWhite privilege.ā€ ā€œWhite fragility.ā€ ā€œIndigenous ways of knowing.ā€ It’s all stereotyping. Private citizens have a First Amendment right to speak of these things, but the government is prohibited by the 14th Amendment from promoting these stereotypes in its speech.

Congress needs to get on the impeachment train & start sending these activist judges DTPR(down the phuking road).

As always, not empowered to do so and knows that but wants the smear snd stall effect because judgey is slime
 
15th post
As always, another dumb lie from you.
One by one even if slowly every single obstructive ruling from Trump hating ā€œjudgesā€ are reversed by higher courts or USSC. Your feelings are labor to ledge jump . Copy cat response also due to inability to general original thoughts.
