Signed into law by President Richard Nixon, Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 sensibly banned discrimination on the basis of sex in all federally funded education programs. Only an administration as radical as that of President Joe Biden could manage to change such a simple anti-discrimination provision into an attack on due process, freedom of speech, and women’s sports.

But on the 50th anniversary of the passage of Title IX, Biden’s Department of Education did exactly that. It issued new regulations that will fundamentally change the rights of the accused on college campuses. It is also trying to change how children as young as 5 years old are allowed to speak and who is allowed to participate in women’s sports.
