To what extent do parents have the right, which Supreme Court has said they have the right, to know what's going on in our schools. Our schools have become woke madrasas pushing left-wing ideology.

Civil Rights Division has been used to open investigations on police departments based on, in my opinion, the flimsiest possible basis in many cases, really embarrassing evidence that would not pass muster if you didn't have the bully pulpit of the federal government to bully people into submission. We have opened up investigations into companies like

SpaceX for refusing to hire people who by statute you can't hire, people here on asylum status and others. We have federal laws regarding information security that restrict certain sensitive industries like space and technology to American citizens or people with a permanent basis to be here.

So this sort of harassment and people who just, like, send letters for a living, that's not what we're doing in the Civil Rights Division now. We're going to investigate cases, and if those cases are meritorious, we're going to take action. If they're not meritorious, we're going to move on to the next thing. And so this sort of harassment factory is not going to continue.

I mean, look, let's be honest. So the Civil Rights Division is created because this country has had a rocky history with civil rights. It's a fact. And I grew up in the Deep South during my hearing I mentioned that when my immigrant family, I was born in India, moved to my hometown in rural North Carolina. My dad was a country orthopedic surgeon there.

There were signs on the highway saying the Ku Klux Klan welcomes you to Smithfield, North Carolina. I mean, this is in my lifetime and your lifetime, but it's not there today. That's the point. The point is... We learned from that. We enforced the civil rights. We had desegregation.
