House Republicans want to defund medical schools over diversity programs

House Democrats are sharply criticizing Republicans for efforts to strip federal funding from medical schools that provide diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs and teach white supremacy.
“They should be ashamed of themselves,” Kelly said. “Diversity, equity and inclusion is about everyone, but they don’t look at it that way.”
Earlier this week, Rep. Greg Murphy, R-N.C., a practicing urologist, introduced the “EDUCATE Act,” which goals to strip medical schools that provide DEI programs and scholarships to specific racial groups of federal funds, including student loan programs.
In an op-ed for The Wall Street Journal, Murphy criticized medical schools for teaching subjects he said were about “intersectionality,” “colonization” and “white supremacy.”
“Introducing DEI programs into medical school curricula is discriminatory and threatens the integrity of the profession,” Murphy wrote on X, formerly Twitter. “We must free our institutions from this harmful initiative.”
According to According to the Association of American Medical Colleges, 5.7% of physicians within the U.S. are black, 6.9% are Latino, 20.9% are Asian, and 63.9% are white.
“We need more doctors of color, and there are reports that show you have a better experience when there is someone who looks like you and understands the realities of your situation,” the Democratic lawmaker said. “They want to take it away. Let them be ashamed.”
“Whether it’s in education, business, medical schools, or in the public or private sector,” Horsford said.
Horsford has already begun to oppose Republican Party efforts to end DEI programs in education. He recently wrote a letter on behalf of CBC to U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland, asking the nation’s top prosecutor to intervene and protect the rights of individuals of color.
In its letter, the club urged Garland to “initiate an investigation of state universities and college campuses that have received federal funds to ensure that they do not violate civil rights protections under the law.”
“We will not remain silent at this time,” Horsford said. “They go for the tools of opportunity, and we work to defend them.”
Even if the bill were to pass within the House of Representatives, it’s unlikely that the Democrat-majority Senate would support it.

The Federal Court of Appeal raises the block to the orders of Trump Dei

The Court of Appeal with three judges allowed to implement the policy of anti-varnish, own capital and the inclusion of Donald Trump, but the decision just isn’t final, it simply gives administrative freedom to implement this policy, while proceedings regarding politics.
According to the judges, they raised the order issued by a lower federal court in February, and in the opinions of three judges, which explained their voices, the judges indicated that the administration would find a way to prove that they’d respect the right to the first amendment and anti -discrimination provisions.
This, despite the two judges who arouse the fears that the orders of Trump’s administration could potentially violate the structure if federal officials implement them too eagerly due to the narrow scope of enforcement of the ordinance.
Judge Pamela Harris, appointed by President Joe Biden, wrote in her opinion that Trump’s orders should not intended to determine that Dei is unlawful in a broad context.
“Incense orders, about them, have a clearly limited scope,” wrote Harris. “Executive orders are not intended to determine the unlawfulness of any efforts to develop diversity, equality or inclusion, and they should not be understood like that.”
Harris continued, offering the reservation: “Actions in the field of execution of agencies that go beyond a narrow scope of orders, can increase the serious first amendment and fears regarding the proper process.”
The primary judge Albert Diaz, the denominator of President Barack Obama, also argued that the aggressive implementation of executive orders focused on diversity, justice and inclusion in the federal government can present problems in addition to Dei defense.
“I also wonder how the administration enforces these executive orders,” wrote Diaz. “It is not clear what types of programs – formal or informal – the administration is trying to eliminate.”
Diaz continued: “When this country covers true diversity, it recognizes and respects the social identity of its people. When he promotes true justice, it opens possibilities and provides equal opportunities for everyone. And when his policy is really integration, he creates an environment and culture in which everyone is respected and valued. What could be more American? The country is not favorable, scrubbing the shameful moments of its past. “
Unlike the other two judges, Judge Allison Rushing, Trump’s denominator, argued that the defense of other dei judges was disputed on their roles as judges.
“The view of each individual judge about whether some executive is a good politics is not only irrelevant to fulfill our obligation to settle matters and controversy in accordance with the law, this is unacceptable issues,” Rushing wrote. “The opinion of the judge that Dei programs” deserve praise, not Opprobrium “, should not absolutely play a role in deciding about this matter.”

Donald Trump wanders when he confronted with the promise to reduce food prices on the first day, he later says that he cannot “guarantee” Americans will not pay again

This is an issue that gained his presidency, many political analysts agree, and Donald Trump promised inflation and rising prices of products and every day services “will fall and they will go down quickly” if he were elected.
How fast? Trump was very specific.
“When I win, I will immediately lower the prices, starting from the first day” He said then.

Americans believed him, but almost a month of his presidency did not fall in any respect. Eggs, most noticeably, cost greater than ever.
When asked about it on Sunday interview With anchor Fox News Channel, Bret Baier, Trump had no answer, as a substitute wandering about “the most beautiful word in English”, tariffs that most economists predict that he will go to consumers the most difficult.
Here is the exchange:
Baier: “There are some signs, consumer trust on the market, they are a bit shaken. So if everything goes to the set, when you think that families would be able to feel falling prices, groceries, energy? Or maybe you talk to them, wait, inflation can get worse until it’s better? “
Trump: “No, I think we will become rich – and look, we are not so rich now. We owe $ 36 trillion. This is because we allow all these nations to use us. The same as $ 200 billion with Canada. We are guilty of $ 300 – we have a deficit with Mexico in the amount of $ 350 billion. I’m not going to do this. I will not let it. “
First, a couple of corrections. According to politicsThe general industrial deficit with Canada falls about $ 41 billion when making an allowance for the surplus in the US in services.
Compared to other US countries, they’re extremely wealthy, boasting the highest gross domestic product in the world, amounting to USD 27.7 trillion. Adapting to the population, the USA ranks fourth in a wealthy place, following only Luxembourg, Norway and Switzerland.
Of course, the gliding domestic debt puts the country in the wet. And of the last three presidents, nobody added more to the deficit than … Trump during their first term. In fact, Trump spent the same in a single semester as Barack Obama in two parts.
According to AxiosJoe Biden spent half in a single semester than Trump in the first 4 years of office: USD 4.8 trill per Trump and $ 2.2 trillion per biden. And this excludes expenses due to Covid.
The truth is that the economy might be a burden for anyone who won the presidency, and rapidly growing debt levels coincide with high percentage rates and more people coming in retirement.
Trump began to return before Sunday, the first Speaking NBC News The fact that he could not “guarantee” that prices would fall “, in an interview with time, saying:” It is difficult to reduce the situation when he will grow, when he grew. You know, it’s extremely difficult. “
In an interview with NBC, Trump said that the tariffs would fix all the pieces.
“Americans cost nothing,” he said. “They created a great economy for us.”
