Last January, newly elected President Joe Biden pledged to fight racism and unify the nation. Instead, during his first year, he’s imposed a harsh agenda of racism in everything from distributing pandemic-relief aid to allocating scarce medicines for COVID patients. Racial favoritism is affecting every way Americans are treated by this administration.
New guidance from Biden’s Food and Drug Administration instructs states to reserve monoclonal antibody drugs for patients with medical risk factors such as obesity and kidney disease. But here’s the catch: The FDA is also urging race and ethnicity to be considered risk factors, apart from a medical condition. So a Black patient with no health problems automatically will be put ahead of a white patient in the same situation.
Biden’s Treasury Department is rolling out a $10 billion program to aid small-business owners with loans and grants. Businesses owned by minorities, women, non-English speakers, and ex-cons go to the front of the line.
Biden administration regulators use weasel words to obscure the truth about who will benefit from this State Small Business Credit Initiative. Regulators say “disadvantaged” groups, but that’s defined by race and ethnicity, not actual hardship.
Eligibility also includes anyone who has had “long-term residence in an environment isolated from the mainstream of American society.” Translation: ex-cons. White male business owners who obey the law and have never been incarcerated are out of luck.
It’s more of the same. Biden’s American Rescue Act, passed in March, is riddled with discrimination. That law divvied up taxpayer dollars to benefit minorities and shortchange white people in the name of equity. Minority farmers were offered no-strings loan forgiveness by Biden’s Agriculture Department, but white farmers were ineligible.
Biden’s Restaurant Revitalization Fund pushed minority and female restaurant owners to the front of the line for whopping giveaways — up to $10 million per business owner. Sorry, white men.
Federal judges have suspended these programs until white challengers get their day in court. But Biden persists, pandering to his political supporters. Equal rights be damned.
The infrastructure bill passed in November is chock-full of anti-white racism. It includes grants to install solar and wind technologies in depressed areas. But when contractors bid, minority-owned businesses will get selected first.
The bill also allocates money to improve urban traffic patterns. Contractors and subcontractors get priority only if they’re owned by minorities or women. White male business owners can take a hike.
So can Asians, in Biden’s view. On Dec. 13, Biden’s Justice Department urged the Supreme Court not to hear a challenge to Harvard University’s admissions policies, which challengers say deny admissions to Asians who have grades and test scores far higher than Black and white applicants.
The Trump Justice Department was committed to challenging these racial preferences, and the American public agrees. Nearly three-quarters of Americans oppose considering race and ethnicity in admissions decisions, and that includes 65% of Hispanics and 62% of Blacks, according to Pew Research. In November, California, the most left-wing and racially diverse state in the country, voted against reinstating affirmative action in state hiring and admissions to public universities.
Biden’s Education Department is dangling federal grants to encourage state education bureaucrats to adopt critical race theory and the factually challenged New York Times “1619 Project.”
The indoctrination and racism continue in the workplace. Is this what Americans want? Absolutely not. Three-quarters of Americans oppose using race to decide who’s hired and promoted, Pew found.
Biden is ignoring that. He’s cynically giving his political backers what they want and, in the process, ripping deep wounds into the nation.
When Black and Hispanic people are ushered to the front of the line for medical treatments, get first dibs on pandemic relief funds, or get hired faster or admitted to college more easily, other people suffer. Lives and livelihoods are affected.
Americans want to be treated as individuals and to treat others that way.

One word sums up DICTATOR Beijing biden…FASCIST.
DICTATOR Beijing biden uses STASI tactics on EVERYTHING by CONSTANTLY VIOLATING OATH of Office and CONSTITUTION.
DICTATOR Beijing biden has committed TREASON from Day One on 1-20-21 and BEFORE then.
With Biden’s racist policies, he is just trying to keep these people happy so they will vote for the Democrat candidates at the midterms. Most of these policies are not for the people and need to be overturned or cancelled. Will it happen, doubt it.
Forgot to add in article…DICTATOR Beijing biden LIKES to SMELL LITTLE GIRLS HAIR TOO. Plenty of videos on that from Lamestream media.
Don’t forget his comment on being Black.
Some call it favoritism; others call it reparations. Our “woke” leaders in Congress call it righting the wrongs of social injustice.
When almost 2/3 of the minority populations and 3/4 of all Americans, according to the Pew Research studies, oppose racial preferences in job openings or college admissions, I can only conclude that the problem lies with liberal politicians fighting to keep this “misperception” of racism in America alive. It’s the kind of propaganda that has worked pretty well for them in the past, and they do have their followers, but perpetuating the myth that racism is rife in America does not serve the country well. The more we yap about it, the more angry we are.
This made me realize the truth in the phrase “America is systemically racist” – just not in the way the “woke” folks want the world to imagine. From here forward when the subject comes up I can now agree, it is systemic, and then proceed to show exactly how racism is built into our laws and regulations. If that is not enough I’ll ask them to show me like for like regulations that assists whites in the same way. Thank you for this article, it really – how should I say this… woke me up!
The guy in the above image is a FAKE potus… JRB is a GENUINE racist as well.
Trump won the black vote, the Latino vote & the women vote…
In essence, the above mentioned groups were intelligent enough to vote for the correct president, both the 1st & 2nd time…There is nothing racist about this fact whatsoever…
America thought it had finally broken the chain of racism barrier by voting a black person as potus, only to regret this shortly thereafter, not because of his race, but because of his hellbent notion of turning America into what we have presently become, a bunch of whining sheep that go along to get along…Weak kneed politicians that turned a blind eye to what Obama & Eric Holder were setting out to do, the rest is history as all conversations are now about race, CRT, The 1619 Project & now race has entered on who is more eligible for Covid-19 therapies, black people first because of an alleged history of unhealthy lifestyles, i.e. if your black, move to the front of the line, if you are white, move to the back of the line… Everything is now about race, anything else is secondary if you are a Democrat…
In closing,
Trump won!
Some how this man has fogotten we are the”United” not divided States of America. A loser on the world stage based on his words and actions. Disgraceful.
Joe says he had a great year. All 378 days of……..uh, all 295 days……, well, you know, I had a great year. Now, where’s the ice cream?
Senile Joe touted George Wallace’s support in the past but NOW thinks he was bad. He gave a eulogy for Grand Kleagle Byrd, but now Joe is a savior for the blacks! Just take everything the Senile jerk says about Repubs and apply it to HIM!
Biden is a spinless opportunist who never worked and has no idea how business works and is destroying it in the process
why do you capitalize “black” but not “white”?
One of the problems is that the Republicans let him get away with it. I would like to see some of these things appear in the papers so that more than just FOX News watchers actually see what happening. Unfortunately, I guess today people don’t read papers but get all their news on their phones – Republicans need to exploit this.
Biden administration has put us back 50 years with racial discrimination and allowed crime to make America as unsafe as any third world country. What a shame.
This is the logical progression from affirmative actions taken in the seventies. It was wrong in principle then because punishing people who did no wrong is unjust. We grudgingly accepted it after being told it was a temporary expedient enacted to jump start minority education. Little bits of wrong have a way of growing into all consuming monsters.
Since Biden is one of the biggest racists in the country….he hasn’t a clue as to what each of these do. Sounds more like the racist puppet master, Obama, made all these decisions. More reason to get Bumbling Biden and the cackling ho out of the white house.
What do we expect this is Obama 3rd term in office in a different face the Democratic is RACIST.
Build back better is a reparations package. Definitely Obama is behind almost everything that’s going on with this administration
