Trump in Nevada: 'I Love the Poorly Educated'
In February, 2016 after a win in the NV primary, where a large majority of people with a high school education or less voted for him, Trump declared "I love the poorly educated."
Is it really a surprise that he is now going to sign an order that ends the Dept of Education?

Trump plans to kill the U.S. Department of Education, but hereβs the problemβitβs unconstitutional.
Congress created the department by law in 1979, and only Congress can dismantle it. A president canβt just erase it with an executive orderβbut Trump can make it impossible for it to function.

This last-minute lame attempt to literally phone it in while the voters of PA 7 are terrified and hurting is the ultimate act of cowardice. MacKenzie is an accomplice in the MAGA Party's attempt to strip away millions of Americans' healthcare and thinks he can hide from his constituents' anger.

GOP bill could ban hairdressers from giving gender-nonconforming haircuts to minors - LGBTQ Nation
The bill would allow anyone to sue someone who affirms a young person's transition, and it specifically mentions hairstyles.
We reported on this a few days ago, but I want to point out this headline because this is where we are at.
A bill in Arkansas would ban gender affirming HAIRCUTS for transgender youth.
HAIRCUTS.
This is a straight up North Korea state sanctioned hairstyle proposed law for youth.

Elon Muskβs Starlink Takes Over the White House
The worldβs richest man now has control over the internet at the White House.
There are a few problems with the richest man donating internet service to the White House...(a) Conflicts of interest; (b) Musk already collects billions from gov't contracts; (c) if employees are using Starlink, Musk could have access their data. He could also pull that service whenever he wants.
