Biden proposes changes in ‘whiteness’
of federal workers

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 1/27/2023 11:23:53 AM

The Biden administration is facing some scrutiny over a proposal to change the way it racially/ethnically classifies federal employees. At the moment, anyone of Middle Eastern or North African descent only has the option of identifying/being classified as “white.” Were the administration’s proposal to be approved, these individuals would instead have the option of identifying as Middle Eastern or North African. The proposal would accomplish this by rewriting the Office of Management and Budget 1997 Statistical Policy Directive No. 15: Standards for Maintaining, Collecting, and Presenting Federal Data on Race and Ethnicity (SPD 15).

Here's a better idea: Drop all classifications by race. They are employees. Period.

Little trivia: the federal government was completely desegregated until Democrat Woodrow Wilson imposed segregation (along with brining back the KKK). He ran on a platform of equality for blacks and won a majority of black support by promising free stuff, a platform which remains a plank of the Democrat Party today. Look what they do; not what they say.

Beyond your own close circle of family and friends, what race we are is a distinction of no matter, except to use such information to further divide us. #1 is right of course, but it will not serve the agenda.

The only requirement should be they have the experience, education and skills necessary to be qualified for the position. Diversity hiring results in what we are seeing daily from the Biden administration which is total incompetence in every department. Defense Fail Homeland Insecurity Triple Fail Transportation Fail Education Fail FAA Fail White House Communications Double Fail Fed Fail They are a colorful bunch of losers kind of like Clowns!

It's a pretty odd decision actually but not for the obvious reasons. If not classified as white then there are fewer whites in government so they can't complain as loudly about lack of non-white representation in jobs. It will reduce the number of working whites in their statistics. This is contrary to their political goals. Not very bright.

It sounds like: if you want to retain your white privilege, get yourself declared 'off white'. Navajo white works too. Maybe even muslin. Nope...too close to muslim. That's probably what this is about; middle easterners wanting those privileges, set-asides and handouts that go with being a person of color.

Biden is the most racist President in my lifetime (fully realizing that there are those who can hide it well), and no amount of idiotic schemes he employs to assuage the demons of his own guilt, it won't succeed. We know Dems have a lot to atone for, but this is something to do with God, not with stupid policies which are self-serving and will only cause more strife, division and animosities. They can't undo what their progenitors established or perpetuated, even after the Civil War. Just ask old Senator Byrd, old DEAD Senator Byrd, good friend of Biden and actually all of the Dems (as far as we know). Biden and Dems and self-righteous leftists could start the cleansing process by refusing positions in private schools, prep schools, elite colleges and universities, and jobs, political appointments, judgeships, etc. IF, if if they are "white". This is what they advocate, in essence, right? Republicans are the children of those who freed the slaves and forced the end of Jim Crow, segregation.

#6, the "races" started out referring to what we would call ethnic groups. In the 1800s and early to mid-1900s, you'd find lots of references to groups such as the "English Race" or the "Irish Race" or the "Italian Race", etc. Then they started grouping people by regions, so you had the "Mediterranean Race", "Nordic Race, "Alpine Race", etc. Then in the mid-1900s, they came up with six groups based on blood groups. Looks like we are now reverting to race as ethnic group. Now, what happens when they have defined "white" until it only refers to only those people with light skin and ancestry the largest of the British islands, which I believe is their unconscious intent. When I was a kid, Spanish and Italian people were not considered "white", so a new category for them. How about categories for the Indian sub-continent and all those blond people in Central Asia, which leads to how can you possibly deride the open-mind Swedes as "white"? And what about the group that has borne so much racism from the people from the main British island, the Irish?" Are these people truly "white" or are they the victims of the truly "white"? Once this happens, then the newly-defined "white" people will be a MINORITY. Then what happens with all those quotas and special rules and laws that are there to protect the minorities from the now non-existent majority? Go for it and pass the popcorn.

A new set of whale meat vending machines debuted in Japan this week. Kyodo Senpaku Co., a Japanese whaling operator, unveiled them in the port town of Yokohama, approximately 20 miles from its capital city of Tokyo. This is the third vending machine outlet the company has installed in an effort to promote sales after years of struggling to promote its products due to whale conservationists’ protests. (Photos) In 2018, Japan put an end to the hunting of the animal in the Antarctic and resumed commercial whaling off its coasts. That moved halted the protesters, but the groups still oppose the new machines.

On this day in history, Jan. 28, 1986, the space shuttle Challenger — scheduled for a routine launch from Cape Canaveral in Florida — exploded after just 73 seconds in flight, killing all seven Americans on board. The disaster shocked the nation — and led to an immediate pause in the space shuttle program. The cause of the disaster was found to be the failure of the primary and secondary redundant O-ring seals in a joint in the shuttle's right solid rocket booster (SRB). While the mission on that fateful day in 1986 was supposed to be like any other routine mission,

I think it’s safe to say that David DePape, Paul Pelosi’s alleged attacker, has more than a few issues. We saw the harrowing body cam video where he attacked Pelosi with the hammer, as well as the Capitol Police surveillance video showing how he broke into the Pelosi home. Capitol Police were not monitoring the video at the time because Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) was out of town. We also heard the troubling call Paul Pelosi made to a 911 operator. But DePape also made a wild call to KTVU, a local California news station on Friday, to deliver an “important message.”

Several police officers quickly moved in to grab the man and then they led him through the crowd into a police precinct, footage shows.

In physical encounters, officers can escalate violence and lose control with lethal consequences. The footage helps establish a number of legal points. The force is clearly and undeniably excessive.
