SICK: Biden Regime Wants to Prioritize Minorities For Kidney Transplants to Address ‘Racial Inequities’

 

The Biden regime is taking its racist agenda to the next level with a plan to prioritize minorities for kidney transplants.

According to a report over at The Washington Free Beacon, Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra wants hospitals to prioritize low-income patients in order to address “racial inequities” in the “transplant process.”

The report notes:

The proposal, which Becerra’s agency announced on May 8, would place 90 of the nation’s 257 transplant hospitals into a pilot program that uses an annual point system to grade participants. Under the system, a successful kidney transplant counts as one point. A transplant furnished to a low-income patient, however, counts as 1.2 points thanks to a “health equity performance adjustment,” thus incentivizing the hospitals to prioritize such patients.

At the end of each year, those points are applied to a transplant quota. Hospitals that meet their quota receive as much as $8,000 per transplant; those that don’t may have to pay up to $2,000 per transplant.While the proposal uses income to categorize patients rather than race, Becerra made clear that the scoring system is meant to address racial concerns.

In his statement announcing the proposal, Becerra said it further evidence of how the Biden regime was taking “concrete steps to remove racial bias … in the transplant process.”

“The organ transplant industry, like every other part of society, is not immune to racial inequities,” he said. “Black Americans disproportionately struggle with life-threatening kidney disease, yet they receive a smaller percentage of kidney transplants.”

“The Biden-Harris administration is taking concrete steps to remove racial bias when calculating wait times and rooting out profiteering and inequity in the transplant process.”

It is not the first time the Biden regime has sought to prioritize the needs of minorities across America’s health care system.

Back in 2022, The Gateway Pundit reported on how the administration was allowing people preferential access to monoclonal antibodies, oral antivirals and other COVID-19 treatments based on their race or ethnicity.

Old Joe himself has also claimed that the coronavirus pandemic was a reminder of the “structural racism” that exists across American society.

“This pandemic is shining a light on so many inequities in our society — the lack of paid sick leave for workers, the need for stronger unemployment insurance, the necessity for a livable minimum wage,” he wrote back in 2020.

“Unsurprisingly, it’s also amplifying the structural racism that is built into so much of our daily lives, our institutions, our laws, and our communities.”

WATCH: “Not What This Republic Stands For” – Don Jr. Slams Marxist Democrats’ Witch Hunt Persecution Against President Trump, Says Jurors Will Likely be Swayed by “Undue Pressure” Outside Trump Show Trial

 

Donald Trump Jr. spoke to reporters while walking out of the Manhattan Court House where jurors heard closing arguments in President Trump’s show trial today.

When asked if he thinks the jurors will make the right decision, Trump expressed concern that “they wouldn’t be able to show up to their children’s schools if they acquitted Trump, which they obviously should based on any reasonable modicum of looking at this case.”

The Gateway pundit Reported that President Trump was back in court on Tuesday for closing arguments in Alvin Bragg’s show trial in New York City.

The prosecution has yet to define the alleged criminal act that President Trump committed. But it doesn’t matter. The court is ready to find Trump guilty and send him to prison.

Trump has been charged with 34 felony “falsification of business records.” He was penalized for every payment he allegedly made to his former lawyer and pathological liar, Michael Cohen, regarding Cohen paying off Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal.

The prosecution has not proven Trump committed any of these crimes or even had an affair; he will likely be found guilty anyway, given the rigged jury.

This is Joe Biden’s America.

To make matters worse, the Biden camp rolled out washed-up Hollywood actor Robert De Niro outside of the Manhattan courthouse to brag about Biden’s lawfare trial against his main political rival.

“They talk about democracy like they’re laughing about it like it’s a soundbite,” Donald Trump Jr. said to RAV correspondent Ben Bergquam outside the courthouse. “That’s not what this Republic stands for.”

Watch below:

Reporter: Do you think they’re gonna make the right decision?

Trump: I believe there’s undue pressure on this jury, and I think that is by design because that’s all part of the same thing we’ve been talking about, no matter what. They understand what’s happened to all of these conservative cases. The press follows them, they hound them, they wouldn’t be able to show up to their children’s schools if they acquitted Trump, which they obviously should based on any reasonable modicum of looking at this case.

Bergquam: The fight that they’re doing, when it fails, what do you think’s next for these traitors?

Trump: It’s got to stop; it just can’t happen. I mean, all the left, they talk about democracy like they’re laughing about it like it’s a soundbite. We have to protect the Republic. It is in jeopardy. It is at risk. That has been shown based the way thay there isn’t any equal justice under the law. They’re trying to make that the norm. They’re trying to scare anyone with any kind of beliefs that don’t go 100% with what they believe into submission. That can’t happen. That’s not democracy. That’s not what this Republic stands for.

Bergquam commented on X,

My message to Don: “On behalf of the American people, thank you to President Trump and your entire Trump family!”

He’s right, we cannot allow this to stand. This political persecution is not just against President Trump. If it’s allowed to succeed, it means no American citizen will have due process and equal protection under the law ever again.
