I just got the word at my 9 to 5 that our adult education courses have all been paused due to Trump's decision to withhold funds already approved by Congress. That means people studying for their GED, second-chance students, ELL students, and those training for a trades career are now screwed.

Correct.
White ppl on the right and the left were terrified of having a Black woman for President and a Black man as Speaker of the House. To have Black people be in two of the top three positions of government was too much for them. That's why we are here.
