Trump cancels CDC 'critical race theory' training after leak
[WND] After it was exposed Monday, President Trump ordered the immediate cancellation of a "critical race theory" training program planned by the Centers for Disease Control that violated his executive order.

Christopher Rufo, the director of the Discovery Institute's Center on Wealth and Poverty in Seattle, obtained leaked documents that outlined the plan to have employees "examine the mechanisms of systemic racism" and address "White supremacist ideology."

The final session was to teach the CDC employee how to become activists, Rufo said in a thread Monday on Twitter.

On Tuesday, however, Russell Vought, the director of the Office of Management and Budget, announced on Twitter that Trump ordered that the program be canceled "immediately."

Rufo said Tuesday on Twitter, nevertheless, that there must be "consequences for the federal employees who brazenly violated a presidential order."

"If there is no action from the CDC Director in the next 72 hours, I will begin releasing the names of those involved," Rufo warned.

The CDC program planned to encourage employees to join an "Anti-Racism Collaborative with eight Collective Action Teams" focused on "communications," making scientific publications "anti-racist" and influencing "policy and legislation."

In general terms, critical race theory is a post-modern theoretical framework rooted in Marxist principles that views individuals through the lens of oppressed or oppressor based largely on their skin color.

#1 ...based largely on their skin color.

So it itself is based upon racism.
