The first four days of the Trump administration have been a whirlwind of victories, and tireless culture warrior Christopher Rufo has more good news to share:
BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended President Biden’s program to investigate the so-called “book ban.” The Trump administration recognizes that restricting pornography in elementary schools is not a “ban on the books” — it makes sense. pic.twitter.com/cSFqPgBl7L

The full press release is hereIt’s worth a read, but here’s one of our favorite parts:
“By dismissing these complaints and abolishing the position and powers of the so-called ‘book ban coordinator’, the administration begins the process of restoring the fundamental rights of parents to direct their children’s education,” he said. Acting Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights Craig Trainor. “The Department is committed to the deeply rooted American principle that local control of public education allows parents and teachers alike to assess the educational needs of their children and their communities. Parents and school boards have broad discretion to fulfill this important responsibility. These decisions will no longer be questioned by Office for Civil Rights of the US Department of Education.
The right of parents to direct their children’s education. What a concept!
The left has had a lot of success using this false term and pretending that it is a real threat to freedom. Finally the Normans woke up.

Yes, this is what the left does, distorting language to define their false narrative.
