Yet today, the Biden administration announced it\u2019s cancelling the initiative tasked with combatting the Chinese government\u2019s unprecedented domestic sabotage and aggression because they claim it\u2019s racist. Cancelling this initiative is just another instance of weakness from an administration more concerned with being politically correct than protecting Americans.
