Trump's 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭 to our ally in the Oval Office is a DAMN SHAME.

Most parents value a good education. Yet The White House calls science, history & critical thinking ‘radical’ while pushing to control curriculum. Who benefits from an uneducated public? Lies don’t justify taking learning away from our children. #TruthBrigade truthbrigade.indivisible.org/s/gMgQvAQM

America is supposed to be the land of the free. So why are extremist pundits and politicians leading attacks on the rights of vulnerable people who just want to be themselves? Fear mongering is about power, not people. Spread facts, not fear! #TruthBrigade
