Trump signs executive actions on education, including efforts to rein in DEI The directives include new efforts to curtail DEI programs at colleges, and discipline guidance for public schools.

Another day, another Trump executive orderβ€”this time, it’s a full-blown attack on education:

‒ Rolling back protections against unfair school punishments for Black & Brown kids
‒ Threatening DEI in higher ed
‒ Targeting foreign funding
‒ Floating vague concepts of a plan for HBCUs

If there aren’t enough Supreme Court Justices that will stand and do the right thing, they will render themselves irrelevant & useless…

Actions speak louder than words!

Negligently disclosing national defense information is illegal β€” and it doesn't have to be classified The Espionage Act, the law that often has been used in criminal cases involving leaks or mishandling of classified information, contains a provision making it

NBC News: The Espionage Act contains a provision making it crime to disclose national defense secrets "through gross negligence."

An infographic titled "SOME OF THE DEPT OF EDUCATION’S KEY PROGRAMS:" featuring the U.S. Department of Education seal at the center, which includes a tree and the text "DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION UNITED STATES OF AMERICA." Surrounding the seal are seven circular labels, each listing a key program: "School lunch programs," "Pell Grants," "Low-income school funding," "School safety programs," "Vocational training and services," "Aid for schools on federal land," and "Student debt relief programs." The background is white, and the text is in black.

He couldn’t even run a charity without breaking the lawβ€”Now he believes he’s in charge of the Supreme Court, Congress, our rights, and the U.S. justice system. Who’s going to stop him?!
