CDC Continued Its ‘Critical Race Theory’ Training Despite Trump Banning It – Trump Just Stopped It
Meanwhile, there are growing calls to declare racism a public health crisis.
President Donald Trump recently signed an executive order that banned training sessions covering “Critical Race Theory.” The order went into effect right away.
However, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention decided to #Resist and move forward with planned struggle sessions for its employees.
The 13-week series is called "Naming, Measuring, and Addressing the Impacts of Racism on the Health and Well-Being of the Nation and the World."

Apparently, the program’s end goal was to create racialist evangelists rather than highly trained public health professionals.
The final session teaches CDC employees how to become activists. They will be encouraged to join an "Anti-Racism Collaborative with eight Collective Action Teams," focused on "communications," making scientific publications "anti-racist," and influencing "policy and legislation." pic.twitter.com/1zV5NmUkfF

The White House has officially canceled this insanity.
The White House on Tuesday said it’s canceling a training course at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that appeared to flout President Trump’s recent ban on programs that use “critical race theory.”
“Glad to report, per @POTUS’s directive, this training is being cancelled immediately,” White House budget director Russ Vought wrote on Twitter.
…The CDC did not immediately respond to a request for comment from The Post.
Despite the ongoing pandemic, which is the type of emergency the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was created to address, it appears that the initial training is part of a more massive effort to declare racism a “public health crisis.”
On Sept. 3, Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.) introduced the Anti-Racism in Public Health Act, a bill that would formally identify systemic racism as a public health crisis in the United States.
The law, which has Rep. Barbara Lee (D-Calif.) and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) as co-sponsors, would create a National Center for Anti-Racism within the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to develop anti-racist federal health policies. It would also create programs within the CDC’s Center for Injury Prevention and Control focused on preventing violence by law enforcement.
“For far too long, our federal government has failed to recognize and address the structural racism that has devastated Black and brown communities and denied access to quality health care,” Pressley said in a statement on Sept. 3.
After over 100 days of “fiery but peaceful protests” and the death, injury, and destruction the AntiFa/BLM riots have caused, racism is a public health crisis…just not in the way Pressley means.

The Swamp is a deep organization, effecting every department.
There is a certain honor system in place that scum like bill clinton, hillary clinton and barack obama utterly destroyed.
Our government is infested with insane people, and people massively on the take (like pelosi, kerry, biden and the like).
It’s all theater until we start seeing orange jumpsuits.
Marxism, Critical Theory, and Critical Race Theory cause Climate Change.
(See what I did there?)
It’s so easy anyone can do it.
That’s not the half of it. The major US banks have ignored Trump’s withdrawal from the Paris Accords and continues to impose the fossil fuel restrictions on US oil companies when they are looking for financing and services while pushing on them to invest in “renewables”. That and continuing obstacles placed by the states is greatly hampering US frackers, pipelines and land-based drillers. Wake up Trump.
This is the reverse of a flightn93 election. The terrorists are amongst the crowd and preparing to rush the cockpit. We must vote to prevent this marxist takeover. Rush, Hannity, and Levin are all sounding the alarm of what democrats will do if they sweep the white house and congress. They ain’t gonna play nice this time or even pretend.
” National Center for Anti-Racism within the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention”
Another name for re-education camp.
They couldn’t find a better bill co-sponsor than appropriating Lying Lizzie…the shining example of true racism and privilege mongering within the Democratic party?
So this is good news right? If the CDC has time to waste sending their personnel to frivolous briefings and dubious training that are not focused on the core mission then that must mean the Rona is over?
The CDC has defeated the Rona otherwise they wouldn’t have time in their schedule for right? When will the CDC be announcing the victory? When will they tell certain blue state governors to end their lock downs?
Have they told Pelosi that Rona isn’t a problem anymore? Will CDC be returning emergency funding dedicated for Rona since the crisis is over?
Whomever at CDC signed off on continuing that ‘training’ after POTUS explicitly put the kibosh on it should be summoned to the WH to personally brief POTUS as to why:
1. They choose to defiantly ignore the directive in such a deliberately insubordinate manner
2. Is the Rona over? If not why are you not working 18 hour days until then with no time this BS training?
3. What other non core mission crap is the CDC wasting money and time on? How much time? How much money?
4. Why shouldn’t the CDC budget be cut by the funds wasted? Why shouldn’t the CDC personnel budget be cut by the equivalent man hours wasted on non core mission pet projects?
5.Why shouldn’t you be transferred to be the new medical officer for Ice Station Zebra to be established in the Arctic?
I’ve heard of Blacks killing Whites because they were White, but the White killing a Black because they are Black seems less likely and more uncommon.
Reginald Denny, anyone?
“Hate” crime seems redundant, as acts of violence must require some hate. However, Black-on-White crime seems like business as usual, but only White-on-Black crime seems likely labeled a hate crimes.
I wonder how many other federal agencies and offices and such are doing the same thing, holding these poison sessions anyway and assuming the President won’t find out.
Thousands of local Federal agencies, likely. SS, EPA, OSHA,EEOC, etc.
The Naval Academy, for one.
What is the over/under on how many hours or days until a Federal Judge somewhere issues a national injunction against the President ordering the cessation of Critical Race Theory–just because? Some reason besides Orange Man Bad. Didn’t follow the rules on making administrative changes to administrative rules.
Bonus points: pick the time frame and name the District of residence for the judge.
This one calls attention to an added insult to the present injury, pretty indicative, I’d say, of a persistent and pervasive Executive-branch-welling, deep-state resistance — read: patently insubordinate and arguably coup-edgy defiance — to the clear and lawful orders issued by the nation’s duly elected, constitutionally supportive CIC:

It’s getting more than serious and weird . . .
. . . that’s Executive-branch-dwelling
President ought to be able to fire everyone involved for such insubordination.
Instead, public sector unions and absurd “rulings” related to them make that virtually impossible.
I heard it stated that approx 10% of the employees at the CDC signed the letter asking that racism be declared a “public health emergency.”
I think I just spotted a 10% staffing reduction that could be undertaken at the CDC without compromising their core mission.
It just may be. I’m willing to state that most of us are sick to death of hearing about it.
Hear, hear!
Meanwhile, there are growing calls to declare racism a public health crisis.
Coming soon, to a Federal Government near you.
““For far too long, our federal government has failed to recognize and address the structural racism that has devastated Black and brown communities…”
Hunh.
I feel like it is shoved down every throat, regardless of color of said throat. It’s tiresome.
Oh, how I wish this piece were accompanied with clandestine video of the reactions of the CDC personnel in charge of this idiocy when told that Pres. Trump cancelled their revival meeting!
I imagine there were reactions along the lines of, “He can’t do that!”, “Who does he think he is?”, and “He’s gonna pay for that!”, along with many other remarks replete with expletives and vulgarities.
Expletives, vulgarities, and “th” pronounced “d”. “He can’t doo dat!”
I think that racial inequities in the US healthcare system is a problem that should be addressed. The CDC usually addresses problems scientifically by looking at root causes. “Critical race theory” is not that.
What is mean by “declaring that racism is a public health emergency?” Does it mean that CDC funds should diverted from developing vaccines to hiring “anti-racism” experts? Of course, the effectiveness of these experts must not be challenged — that would be the forbidden “myth of meritocracy.” The solution to health care disparities between communities is to focus on the causes of the disparities rather than upon “racism.” If black people have more diabetes due to bad diets, fund a program to improve nutrition in communities that show trends for diabetes. If women are showing an increase incidence of heart disease, step up the prevention measures for that. But allocate CDC funds to such challenges in a color-blind way. I reject the idea that we need black doctors and black public health officials for the black population with a separate CDC focusing upon white populations.
What is next, a separate NASA funded by taxpayers to put black astronauts into space? Segregation in the provision of most services is not only illegal, it is inefficient.
The appeasement we see shown the BLM gangstas is, on our scorecard, shameful, odious, and abhorrent.
The support our sociopolitical adversaries provide is, on their spreadsheet, aligned to intersect with and promote a revolutionary, global government-and-multinational-corporation partnership; the “bourgeoise” is seen as toast. This is liberal-progressive-lefty fascism, plain and simple; the global state is seen as supreme over nations and human rights. Liberal democracy is history, the idea runs.
There is, therefore, no common framework, no shared sociopolitical arena for, no dialogue between the two. Seen from the global-progressive, totalistic perspective, the former is an inexorable, flat-earth outlook; viewed from the currently struggling liberty, justice, and rule-of-law vantage point, the latter has an insatiable appetite to “explore” (read: dominate and direct) more and more of the newly discovered, roundly intersection-influenced Gaian citizen.
“And never the twain shall meet.”
It’s hard to imagine how war — or, if no serious shooting erupts, at least a state of mutual and perpetual uncooperativeness between the two — is avoidable. A solid, minimum 60% win of the popular vote in November — assuring a corresponding landslide of the electoral college score — would be a worthy, if not too rosily imagined start.

Is there a mask for that??
