When we last heard from Christopher F. Rufo — which was Monday — he was letting us know that President Biden’s pick for Deputy Secretary of Education was formerly a superintendent who presided over “anti-racist therapy for white educators” in the San Diego Unified School District to teach them about the “spirit murder” of black children in the classroom.
As Twitchy had reported, President Trump in 2020 had directed the Office of Management and Budget to root out these “divisive, un-American propaganda training sessions” and starve them of taxpayer funding. We’re looking at President Biden, now, though, and so Rufo has announced a new coalition to fight critical race theory in the courts.
Today, President Biden doubled-down on critical race theory in the federal government.
In response, I am announcing a new coalition of legal foundations and private attorneys that will wage relentless legal warfare against race theory in America's institutions.
The fight is on. pic.twitter.com/JZJYpjla1k

A network of private attorneys and the conservative organizations are launching a “war” against critical race theory trainings across the country as President Biden rolls back the Trump administration’s efforts on the issue.
Led by Discovery Institute researcher Chris Rufo, the network’s stated goal is to bring a complaint before the U.S. Supreme Court and “effectively abolish critical race theory programs from American life.”
It comes just after Biden repealed Trump’s executive order banning critical race theory training from the federal government, a move by Trump that Rufo appeared to precipitate by releasing documents leaked from federal employees.

Megyn Kelly is on board:
THIS IS THE ANSWER. THE LAW. These indoctrination sessions are unlawful.Studies have shown they create *more,* not less, racism.
Good for you @realchrisrufo. https://t.co/JtHOkGWaCi— Megyn Kelly (@megynkelly) January 21, 2021

Exactly, more of this. Resistance is key.

Unfortunately, some in the judiciary see the law as “negotiable” when it comes to their political beliefs.

Please do. Critical race theory does more harm than good.

This is so true. I can confirm that "Diversity and Inclusion" trainings in Corporate America have become trainings in racializing every single aspect of life in a cult like manner.

That’s exactly what they want. They like racism. They need it. Without it they have no platform.

I will remove my kids from any institution that forces this racist curriculum. We will also remove ourselves from any places of employment that do the same.

So much for generating unity, Mr. Biden. Let's start by pitting one American against another.

Thank you. Yes, the leftist democrats WANT to divide the races further, not bring them together. Race relations in this country would be a hell of a lot better if the government would just stay out of it.

Megyn. Report on school librarians training school students on critical race theory. School librarians are no longer our friends. @ALALibrary trains them using the racist @DrIbram. See #alamw21 to see this for yourself or have me on to discuss.

I wouldn't position it as a 'conservative' cause. Make it bipartisan. A large amount of left leaning people are also secretly against CRT but are bullied into silence. Labelling your cause 'conservative' will only make it easier to demonize.

I hope this can be a bipartisan initiative. Critical race theory is bad news for everyone (except those in the CRT pseudoscientific field) and it does enormous damage to legitimate efforts against racism. I'm afraid it's Bidens blind spot, so he could use pushback from all sides.

Thank you Chris! CRT is a poisonous waste of tax dollars.
