Congress’s Diversity and Inclusion office is set to be formally scrapped under the latest GOP rules package.

The 36-page proposal officially eliminates the congressional Diversity & Inclusion Office, which was first launched by Democrats in 2020 as part of an effort to discriminate against white applicants.

Funding for the office was already eliminated in a government spending bill passed in March, with plans to merge it into a new Office of Talent Management.

However, Democrats had hoped to restore funding for the office if they regained control of the House.

•   Bannon: It's Time to Lock Down the Fourth Branch of Government - "The Administrative State"
  Steve Bannon talks with Mark Chenoweth about the "Administrative State", often referred to as the "Deep State" which is the out-of-control, unelected government bureaucrats that infest every level of government.  It has become an unaccountable fourth branch of government that is not in the Constitution, never dreamed of by the founders, and in fact, would be a nightmare had they realized what was to come.  Legislative power is supposed to reside solely in Congress which is not supposed to be permitted to delegate this legislative power.
