Biden To Nominate Catherine Lhamon For Ed.'s OCR

Lhamon is horrible.
   She's the one most responsible for the Obama administration's Dear Colleague letter lowering the burden of proof in college sexual assault cases and stripping away other protections like the right to face your accuser. These hearings aren't actual trials, of course. But the relevant protections are grounded in principles that antecede the actual legal protections.
   I keep telling myself that the Biden administration isn't trying to wreck the country... But, honestly, if they were, what exactly would they do differently? Just about the only good things they've done are extensions of Trump policies--distributing the fruits of Operation Warp Speed, resuming some construction on border fencing, keeping lower refugee numbers in order to block those gaming the system...and, of course, Biden gave up on that latter one after progressive pressure...
