The Treasury Department's launch of a new advisory committee on racial equity is just one of dozens of ways in which the federal government is working to advance President Biden's sweeping diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility (DEIA) agenda.

Undeterred by repeated losses, the Biden administration’s war on red states and our "Neanderthal thinking" rages on.This month, my colleagues and I are fighting Biden and his comrades at the United States Department of Agriculture in court to protect the right of states to run their public schools as they see fit.This time, the fight isn’t over curriculum or masking — it’s whether states still possess the paltry authority to require boys to use the boys’ bathroom at school.  The United States Constitution leaves no doubt as to the states’ broad authority over their own public schools, but the Biden administration supposes that everything — even schoolchildren — has a price.  The USDA is the federal agency that directs the myriad "cooperative" federal food programs — including the Supplemental Food Assistance Program (SNAP), the Women, Infants, and Children nutrition program (WIC), and the Child Nutrition Program (including the school-lunch program).These programs both tug at the heart strings and come with a hefty price tag for states, so the Biden administration has found them to be ideal vehicles for forcing genderlessness into our state governments, and more particularly, our public schools.  By issuing a USDA memorandum and accompanying administrative rule, the administration has waged a campaign to impose the left’s extremist "gender identity" agenda on schoolchildren with the implied threat that if states resist, their programs and public schools will get less money from the federal government.  The Biden administration is threatening the state of Alabama and warning that it might lose federal funding if it doesn't enforce radical gender mandates.

Fox News host Sean Hannity reacted to OPEC's decision to cut oil production by 2M barrels a day on "Hannity." Biden has almost completely drained the supply. We're now at a 40-year-low. It is not a national emergency, Joe, that Democrats are likely to lose an election, so you artificially raise the world supply of oil in the lead up to an election to lower the price, to create a false perception that, oh, you've done something good.
