Why is the administration trying to get rid of Head Start?
Because it challenges their narrative of waste, fraud, and abuse. And because it gets in the way of their efforts to trap people in precarity and make them easier to exploit.

you can change your name under 21 with parental permission if you’re cis, but trans folks aren’t mature enough.
