Just how many third-rate crackpots is Team Biden installing as political officers at the top of federal agencies? Beware: Felicia Wong is likely all too typical.
Just named vice chair of the Treasury Department’s new “racial-equity” committee, Wong vows to “make racial equity central to the Treasury Department’s mission.”
Huh? Treasury’s actual mission, per its website, is to “maintain a strong economy,” protect the nation’s “financial system” and manage government finances. With the economy plainly headed for full-on recession, the financial system beyond shaky and the feds’ finances dire (the national debt just passed $31 trillion), that’s already more than enough work for Secretary Janet Yellen and her minions.
But the prez is committed to pushing “equity,” the central buzzword for radical “racial justice” goals. So every agency has to set up a committee to (in Treasury’s case) “identify, monitor and review” aspects of the economy that have “resulted in unfavorable conditions for communities of color.”
