How Trump can rid Washington of wokeness

That the electorate has rejected wokeness should be obvious by now. • Rescind and reverse all of Mr. Biden’s executive orders implementing DEI and gender theory, including Executive Order 13985, which advanced a “whole-of-government equity agenda.” Mr. Biden also signed executive orders supporting “gender-affirming” medical interventions on minors, including puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones and surgeries. The National Museum of African American History and Culture, for instance, has an entire web page deriding “white fragility” and a “white dominant culture.” Mr. Trump should ask Congress to restore ideological balance by appointing real conservatives willing to stand up to progressive views to the Board of Regents, which governs the Smithsonian. The current secretary, Lonnie Bunch, says DEI “is integral to excellence in museum practice.” • Eliminate the Census’s racial and ethnic categories. If the government is truly interested in disparities, it should ask questions that have real bearing on people’s backgrounds and perspectives, such as, “Is there a father in the house?” • Dissolve the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, or CPB, which funds public media organizations that are responsible for spreading the woke mind virus.
