🚨EXPOSED — Biden’s HHS funneled millions to Washington University in St. Louis to embed “diversity, equity, and inclusion” into medicine and clinical research.

Yes, your tax dollars are bankrolling racial discrimination and ideological experiments.

Here’s the proof…🧵 Image /2 Biden’s HHS gave WashU $5 million to run a nationwide “Neurosurgeon Research Career Development Program” to “promote and foster diversity, equity, and inclusion at every level.”

It mandates DEI, builds a “pipeline program” to recruit based on identity, and embeds “diversity” into selection, mentoring, and leadership.

This is taxpayer-funded discrimination — reorienting the medical workforce around ideology instead of merit.Image
