THE UGLY RACIAL WARS – AGAIN – OVERNIGHT:   It's something we really don't want to acknowledge, but we have to.  Thanks to the hard left, America is being racially divided in ways we haven't seen in our lifetime.  The apparent goal of the professional crazies is to split the nation, setting group against group, leading to the end of the United States.  Let's face it, the hard left never had any use for the American Constitution.   They're fine with the Cuban model or the Soviet experiment.  Ah, for the good old days.   Lunch with Comrade Castro, dinner with Comrade Khrushchev.  Who could ask for anything more?  From Fox: 

The Biden administration's U.S. Department of Education is "as far left as they come," former Secretary Betsy DeVos said Thursday, after the Cabinet department promoted a radical activist group's handbook that advocates for educators to "disrupt Whiteness" and accuses the U.S. educational system of the "spirit murder" of "Black, Brown and Indigenous children."

Within the Abolitionist Teaching Network's "Guide for Racial Justice & Abolitionist Social and Emotional Learning" handbook, the group calls "Whiteness" a form of oppression, and its cornerstone program, called Activists in Residence, pays professional agitators $30,000 per year, working 20 hours per week, to lead "abolitionist educational organizing in their respective cities," according to its website.

After the citation was brought up during a briefing, White House press secretary Jen Psaki claimed its inclusion was erroneous.

"We don't endorse the recommendations of this group," she said.

DeVos told "The Story" that Psaki wasn't being forthright, adding that someone high-up in the Department of Education, led by former Connecticut State Education Commissioner Miguel Cardona, had to sign off on the promotion of the group.

"This notion that it was a mistake is an absolute falsehood," said DeVos, who served under President Trump. "Having been there at the department for four years and working through the approval processes for anything that is put out from the department, I know full well that there are eyes on and full knowledge of this going on."

"We saw earlier this year, the grant process the department put out that basically was trying to bribe schools into using the 1619 Project in their materials," she added. "So this is just another reflection of the true nature of the Biden Department of Education."

DeVos' claim was echoed by one House lawmaker who agreed the White House appears supportive of left-wing curricula.

"Surely there must be leaders in the Biden administration who support critical race theory, and they want to use the schools to indoctrinate our children, that is very concerning," Rep. Vicky Hartzler, R-Mo., a former schoolteacher, told Fox News earlier Thursday.

COMMENT:  I suspect there are those in the Biden administration who would like to go much further.  There are some real nuts in this government.  Whether they can go further is iffy, but never underestimate the treachery of a hard Marxist.  Today Portland, tomorrow the world.
