California 'Deputy Superintendent of Equity' Resigns
[PJMEDIA] A recent Politico investigation found that Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,’s first Department of Education deputy superintendent of equity, Dr. Daniel Lee ,was hired even though he "lives in Philadelphia and has a separate job there, more than 2,500 miles away" from the California schools he was charged with "fixing." Afterward, California Assemblyman Kevin Kiley (R-06) sent a letter to the Government Operations Agency in Sacramento questioning the lawfulness of Lee’s hiring.

Remarkably, only a few days later Lee resigned from the position. However,
there's more than one way to stuff a chicken...
if you’re like me and don’t live in woke world, you probably didn’t even know there was such a position as a deputy superintendent of equity; nor is it likely you know what such a creature does. Don’t worry, no one really knows what he does.

So how did Lee get this cushy no-show state job that pays nearly $180,000 in taxpayer-funded salary? Kiley said the brand-new position was created by State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Thurmond specifically for Lee, his personal friend and former groomsman. On June 4, 2020, Thurmond announced several "multi-pronged partnerships and initiatives" to address so-called implicit bias and racism in California schools. Among those partnerships included in the announcement was "Dr. Daniel Lee, President-Elect for the New Jersey Psychological Association and Principal Consultant of N-PSY-T Psychological Services, who is developing a model for schools to address the impacts of implicit bias on student achievement."

The Department of Education claims a deputy superintendent of equity concentrates on equity in areas like student counseling, social-emotional learning, and other educational programs—areas which Lee has no actual experience in performing within the academic setting of public schools. Of course, "equity" is that favorite woke term of the left designed to sound like "equality," though it is in actuality anything but equal. "A good rule of thumb in California politics is when you hear the word ’equity,’ something fishy is afoot," said Kiley.
