Trump Begins Culling the Public Education Indoctrination Herd. “The Democrats are really going to be losing their minds over this, I mean more than usual. President Trump’s executive order aims a poison arrow directly at the heart of one of their biggest cash cows and the apparatus they use to dumb down the electorate.” The utter failure of the Department of Education has been well documented. I am fond of reminding its defenders that we got a man to the moon with people who were educated long before it existed. It was never needed. As my friend and colleague Teri Christoph writes, its creation was a sop from Jimmy Carter to the teachers' unions for their help in getting him elected. Thus began the unholy alliance of the Democrats, the teachers' unions and a Cabinet-level department that was solely focused on indoctrinating American public school children. Counter-punching the Dem lies that will be flowing over Trump's move is going to keep all of us busy for a while. They'll be rending their garments, filling their diapers, and screaming about the poor school children being returned to the Stone Age. The lies and the legal maneuvering will be exhausting but, as President Trump said, people know that this is the right thing to do. Well, sane people anyway. https://pjmedia.com/stephen-kruiser/2025/03/20/the-morning-briefing-trump-begins-culling-the-public-education-indoctrination-herd-n4938116

COLORADO: Relatives of suspect react to shooting that injured 3 Pueblo officers. Pueblo Chief of Police Chris Noeller spoke to reporters as he brimmed with emotion and strong words, holding not only anger for the suspect but also for lawmakers. Chief Noeller said the suspect who is accused of shooting three of his officers had a lengthy record, and should never have been on the street to begin with. “[He] had a criminal history that spans pages. He had 14 felony arrests, most of which pled to misdemeanors,” said the chief. Police say the suspect, Billy Soto, was a self-admitted MS13 gang member. Chief Noeller says he was out on bond for three felony cases. He was also wanted on attempted murder charges, according to police. “The blood of my officers lays at the steps of our Capitol,” said Chief of Police Chris Noeller. https://krdo.com/news/2025/03/19/watch-live-pueblo-officials-give-new-updates-for-shooting-that-injured-three-officers-2/ Analysis: true. . -
While Roundy flounders. . . . . . Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth reveals another $580 million in DOGE savings from bloated Pentagon budget by Ryan King Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth unveiled another round of cuts to programs Thursday worth $580 million that he claimed were either “wasteful” or didn’t align with the administration’s agenda. With those cuts, Hegseth estimated that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has found roughly $800 million in savings so far at the Pentagon. “They are not a good use of taxpayer dollars — ultimately that’s who funds us and we owe you transparency and make sure we’re using it well,” Hegseth explained in an X video while briefly ticking through a few of the savings. https://nypost.com/2025/03/20/us-news/defense-secretary-pete-hegseth-reveals-another-580-million-in-doge-savings-from-bloated-pentagon-budget/

Oh now I see who Roundabout is parroting. Got that? She claims most of the nation's public school students are disabled, poor or rural, which is absurd on its face. Randi, a supposed educator herself, doesn't seem good with numbers, so let's take a look at some data from the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), which closely tracks these kinds of things. According to the NCES, about 15 percent of the public school population receives special education services, while 19 percent of students are from rural communities. There's likely a decent amount of crossover between these two populations, so we can conclude that Randi's use of "most" is a gross exaggeration. As for the "poor" students, that is determined by the number of pupils receiving free or reduced-price lunches at school. That number is pretty high, hovering around 50 percent of all students, but here's what Randi doesn't tell you: the lunch program is funded through the U.S. Department of Agriculture, which is now in the capable hands of Brooke Rollins. The kids are not going to starve. The numbers don't matter at all, of course, because the funding isn't going to be stripped away from any of these students, but the already-dwindling power of Randi Weingarten and the teachers' unions—who kept our kids out of school during COVID and pushed radical ideologies instead of teaching the basics—will certainly be greatly diminished. Here's a number for Randi Weingarten and the unions: Your stranglehold on the public education system at the federal level will be reduced by 100 percent. https://redstate.com/terichristoph/2025/03/20/randi-weingarten-implodes-as-doge-decimates-department-of-education-n2186898

You again are too blind to see. It is not about any one state or you trotting out any statistics, It is the inescapable point that YOU feel that you can judge whether or not the parents and teachers are smart enough. Only a federal bureau is good enough. Thank God you are a shrinking minority.

Lol. How can anyone here read that nonsense and not laugh at the standard leftist arrogance of roundy. The same as for all the children. Did you just assume that the state and local educators would ignore them ? Of course you did. It must be hard for you up on that mountaintop.
