In a powerful move that’s already making headlines, President Donald J. Trump has announced the immediate cancellation of a multi-billion-dollar Biden-era internet program he called “racist,” “woke,” and “unconstitutional.” The decision is being praised by many Americans who are fed up with government overreach, race-based spending, and wasteful programs disguised as “infrastructure.”
🚨 What Was the Biden Internet Equity Program?
The so-called Digital Equity Act, passed under Joe Biden’s $1 trillion infrastructure plan, allocated $2.75 billion in taxpayer money for internet access programs. While marketed as a way to improve technology access for “underserved communities,” critics say it was really about promoting far-left equity policies—rewarding recipients based on race, not need or merit.
“The so-called Digital Equity Act from Biden and Harris is a total violation of the Constitution,” President Trump wrote on Truth Social. “We’re done with these woke, race-based giveaways. This $2.5 billion scheme is illegal and discriminatory—and I’m shutting it down immediately to save hardworking taxpayers billions.”
Trump also noted his conversation with Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, where both agreed the program had no constitutional basis.
⚠️ What Was the Money Actually Funding?
Biden’s program set aside:
- $60 million for planning grants to states, cities, and tribal governments
- $2.5 billion to fund projects prioritizing racial and identity-based criteria
Many of these funds were aimed at diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives—policies that have become a hallmark of Biden’s agenda and a growing concern for conservative Americans.
🛑 Trump Pulls the Plug: “No More Woke Giveaways”
This isn’t the first time President Trump has taken aim at DEI-related spending. His administration has already begun reversing several taxpayer-funded “equity” initiatives from the Biden years. Now, he’s zeroing in on internet funding that many Americans never asked for.
“President Trump is protecting the Constitution and saving BILLIONS,” said one senior official. “This move puts America First—again.”
💬 Democrats Push Back, But Conservatives Applaud
Senator Patty Murray (D-WA), who wrote the Digital Equity Act, fired back with a defensive statement, claiming the law helps students and seniors get online. She accused Trump of “stealing” from the American people and promised legal battles over the decision.
But millions of hardworking Americans, especially seniors concerned about big government and out-of-control spending, are cheering Trump’s move.
✅ No more race-based handouts
✅ Billions saved from federal waste
✅ Another step toward restoring law and order in Washington
Why This Matters:
If you’re concerned about where your tax dollars are going, this is one more reason to support policies that put Americans—not political agendas—first. President Trump is once again taking real action to end wasteful, unconstitutional spending.
Stay informed. Stay empowered. Support leadership that protects your rights—and your wallet.
