Trump Takes Aim at Critical Race Theory, Signs Executive Order on ‘Patriotic Education’

President Donald Trump said Thursday that the left’s “cancel culture,” including critical race theory and the New York Times’ “1619 Project,” is “toxic propaganda” that must be eliminated from schools and workplaces. Later, he signed an executive order on education.

“American parents are not going to accept indoctrination in our schools, cancel culture at work, or the repression of traditional faith, culture, and values in the public square. Not anymore,” the president said at the National Archives in Washington. “Critical Race Theory, the 1619 Project, and the crusade against American history is toxic propaganda—an ideological poison that, if not removed, will dissolve the civic bonds that tie us together.”
