Did right-wing podcaster and Donald Trump’s former White House strategist Steve Bannon flash a quickie Nazi salute during his speech Thursday at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC)?

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.

8 million disabled children benefit from federal funding to their schools. It’s a full-time job for every parent of a disabled child to fight for their kids’ education. Donald Trump and MAGA GOP in Congress just told every family they’re on their own.

It's debatable how much public schools are failing and how much parents are failing at parenting. Even so, wouldn't it be better, if the public schools are really failing, to improve them for the benefit of ALL children and not just the children of the very richest?
