The Department of Education is parceling off its main offices and giving their responsibilities to other federal agencies.
Much of the funding for K-12 and colleges is being handed over to—wait for it—the Department of LABOR.
Because what else is education good for apart from producing workers?😞

Mike Johnson claims the Epstein files can’t be released unredacted because they contain intelligence-agency material that falls under national security.
✅ Reality check: Jeffrey Epstein was a civilian, with no government contracts, nothing he did should ever be considered classified.

There are only 35 or 40 House seats that we can already expect to be at least somewhat competitive next year.
But what we learned from the elections at the start of this month was that there are another 15 or more seats, all currently GOP-held, that now have to be considered in play next November.

The people who’ve spent years vilifying and harassing public school teachers and LGBTQ+ people are working overtime to avoid talking about the overwhelming deluge of information connecting their president and many of his associates and supporters with a vast network of sex trafficking child abusers.
After 23k emails from the Epstein case reveal more details abt the sex trafficker’s relationships w/the president + a large cohort of wealthy, powerful men we keep checking to see if the “leave our kids alone” have anything to say about the kids who clearly were not left alone. Spoiler- they don’t.

NEW: Trump is waging war on his own party in Indiana — threatening to primary any GOP lawmaker who refuses to gerrymander the state’s maps ahead of 2026.
His attacks have already had consequences, with one lawmaker he singled out later being swatted.
