Education Secretary Linda McMahon deflected when asked if she knew what the Tulsa Race Massacre was during a Wednesday congressional hearing, telling lawmakers that she intends to look into it more.
McMahons response comes as Rep. Summer Lee (D-Pa.) pressed her about history lessons that would be considered illegal DEI by the Trump administration. (DEI stands for diversity, equity and inclusion and has been used by Republicans as shorthand for initiatives addressing race and gender, among other topics.) The comments are also the latest to suggest that McMahon a former pro wrestling executive whos had little education policy experience could use a lesson or two herself.
Would it be illegal DEI for a lesson plan on the Tulsa Race Massacre? Lee asked McMahon during the Wednesday panel.
Id have to get back to you on that, McMahon said.

Trump's cabinet has to be the worst ever. Only one qualification to work for him. Kiss his oversized ass.
