NEW: Justice Dept. notifies federal judge that it is dropping a discrimination lawsuit against Yale that was brought by the Trump admin.

that was brought by the Trump administration.

The case marked an escalation in the Trump Justice Department's attacks on affirmative action programs that many conservatives consider illegal."Our admissions process has allowed Yale College to assemble an unparalleled student body, which is distinguished by its academic excellence and diversity. Yale has steadfastly maintained that its process complies fully with Supreme Court precedent, and we are confident that the Justice Department will agree,” it said in a written statement.

The university said the Justice Department reached its conclusion before allowing Yale to provide all the data the government requested."Had the department fully received and fairly weighed this information, it would have concluded that Yale's practices absolutely comply with decades of Supreme Court precedent."

Many conservatives have hoped that the court's shift to the right, with Amy Coney Barrett replacing Ruth Bader Ginsburg, will produce a decision striking down the use of affirmative action in school admissions.

biden doesnt care who he hurts does he

Good for Biden to withdraw a lawsuit that has no merit. Was just red meat for the 'reverse racism' crowd.

Apparently Civil Rights don't apply to everyone

So Yale can now openly be prejudice to whites and asians. WELCOME TO BIDEN'S AMERICA. everything for incompetent blacks who can't make it in the real world

Translation to Asian Americans: you can do my math homework, but we don't want you at Yale...

So the Biden Admin is admitting by this action that it is OK with discrimination?

very nice

THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA & CORRUPT POLITICIANS THAT CONSPIRED AGAINST THIS COUNTRY IN THE 2020 ELECTION ARE IN FOR A RUDE AWAKENING...ANYONE WHO VOTED FOR BIDEN WAS AN IGNORAMUS...PATRIOTS WILL HOLD THAT AGAINST YOU...

Friends of the Dems getting their promised paybacks for backing their candidate i'd wager.

Good.
