President's 1776 Commission

Do you know what The 1776 Report of The President's Advisory 1776 Commission is? It was published this month (January 2021) just before the end of President Trump's term. 

President Joe Biden trashed the Report and rescinded the Commission on his first day in office on January 20, 2021. I think we can all be sure that he did not read it. His Executive Order was on his desk and waiting for his signature on his first day at the desk. 

Does anyone else think his action is hasty, since he obviously didn't read it first. Who has his ear?

The 1776 Report can be read here.

Why would Biden do that? A clue can be found in the second paragraph of the Introduction.

"The declared purpose of the President’s Advisory 1776 Commission is to “enable a rising generation to understand the history and principles of the founding of the United States in 1776 and to strive to form a more perfect Union.” This requires a restoration of American education, which can only be grounded on a history of those principles that is “accurate, honest, unifying, inspiring, and ennobling.”

The Democrats and progressive education are re-writing history, as evidenced by absurd publications like The 1619 Project.
