STUDY CONFIRMS DEI MAKES RACISM WORSE—TRUMP SHUTS IT DOWN. A bombshell study found that DEI training doesn’t reduce racism—it fuels it.

The Department of Education has given public schools 14 days to eliminate DEI programs or risk losing federal funding. No more race-based hiring, admissions, or training. For years, DEI has been a scam that pitted people against each other. The data is clear, and now, the policy is too—DEI is done.
