Trump withdraws DEI education bans
In a vindication of US Constitutional rights, the Trump administration has quietly folded its cards on the educational content bans it announced in 2025.

NHPR:
The Trump administration has agreed to drop its ban on diversity and equity initiatives in public schools in New Hampshire—and the rest of the country. That’s according to a ruling Wednesday by Federal Judge Landya McCafferty, which dismissed the case.

New Hampshire’s largest teachers union, four public school districts, and civil rights groups challenged the ban last year in a federal lawsuit, arguing it violated free speech and equal protection rights. Schools that violated the ban risked losing federal funding.

McCafferty temporarily blocked the ban in April while the parties litigated the case. Earlier this month, the school districts, civil rights groups, and National Education Association of New Hampshire agreed to drop their lawsuit after the Trump administration told the court it would not withhold federal money from schools if they have diversity and equity programs.

It did not say why, but pointed to a similar legal challenge in Maryland. In that case, the Department of Justice agreed last month to drop enforcement of the ban in Maryland without explanation.

DEI is not education. It is indoctrination.

Just because this DOJ pulls back from one case, doesn’t mean they’re giving up on the fight. Sometimes other doors open…

So, there's no longer a DEI ban in New Hampshire, and Gitanole thinks that's a win everywhere.

They're never happy to begin with.

Idk what happened to them in their childhood that caused them to turn into such monsters.

RE: Trump withdraws DEI education bans
They seem to be especially annoyed by anything Trump does. I wonder if it's curable, or if they're going to act like little titty babies with Vance and Rubio, too?

They're going to act like babies when any Republican is in charge of anything.

NH, where the state motto is Live Free or Die. My 2nd ex was from there. The first time I visited should have warned me off. There are some inbred rednecks up there that make ours down here in the south look like frat boys. The average IQ of everyone I met up there had to be below 100.

RE: Trump withdraws DEI education bans
Leftists are Emotionally Incontinent

That’s not going to change anytime soon. Regardless of who is in the White House or not. Teachers Unions removed critical thinking and civics from the classrooms years ago.

We are in the midst of reaping what the Leftists sowed decades ago. It’s no coincidence in a recent liberal white woman video Obama’s itch Susan Rice mentioned “playing the long game”.

America First Conservatives must be vigilant. We have to hold on. There’s a better generation on the way. The fight is far from over.

Trump is nothing more than a placeholder. They'll treat the next populist POTUS the same way. Unless, of course, by some miracle—or the work of Satan, more likely—they are able to regain the WH in 2028.

Of course they will. They are nothing if not consistent.

Citizens in Democrat run states always have low IQs because they don't think. They feel.

By playing the long game they mean completing "the long march through the institutions" until they have all been thoroughly infiltrated and the existing power structures have been usurped.

There is another generation emerging and making their presence known. They hate the democrats but they may feel equally as repulsed by the GOP. They ostensibly value freedom, free enterprise, and our capitalist economy, though, so maybe they'll reboot the entire machine.
