Screenshot of article excerpt: The Education Department also was concerned about other words in the application, said Adrian Klenz, who works with deafblind adults in the state. He said he has talked with state officials about the discontinuation of the grant.
“I was told that apparently the administration is going through past grants and two words were flagged: One was transition and one was privilege,” Klenz said. “Transition — transitioning from childhood to adulthood. Privilege came up because a parent wrote a glowing review of staff that said what a privilege it was to work with them.” ProPublica obtained a copy of the grant application and confirmed that those words were included.
The Dept. of Education has pulled funding for programs in 8 states that support students with both hearing and vision loss.
A staffer at one program says he was told the Trump admin. took issue with 2 words on the grant application: “transition" and “privilege": www.propublica.org/article/trum...

the dismantling of US foreign aid is starting to hit very close to home. Dear friends left without a job, unable to pay mortgages, childcare, entire livelihoods destroyed. The ripple effects of this are just insane.

Having not read the sentencing remarks, I’m cautious about rushing to conclusions, but on its face Feathers McGraw appears to be a prime example of the rampant sentence inflation that has led to chronic overcrowding in our zoos and the unedifying spectacle of animals being released early.

1/ Ok, so instead of just making jokes about the EU Reset, I wanted to do a very simplified thread on:
- what the actual problem is Keir Starmer is trying to solve;
- the options on the table; and
- why this shit is hard.
This will be very long. I'm sorry.
Let's get wonky.

How come Labour can find money when it wants to? youtu.be/vdnMDz3wuqs?... Labour found £6 billion in the last week to buy 166,000 houses for the Ministry of Defence. The spending wasn’t budgeted, so how did it fund the money all of a sudden?
