In February, 2016 after a win in the NV primary, where a large majority of people with a high school education or less voted for him, Trump declared "I love the poorly educated."
Is it really a surprise that he is now going to sign an order that ends the Dept of Education?

Trump plans to kill the U.S. Department of Education, but here’s the problem—it’s unconstitutional.

Congress created the department by law in 1979, and only Congress can dismantle it. A president can’t just erase it with an executive order—but Trump can make it impossible for it to function.

Trump called them criminals

It was a lie

He deported them anyway

Defying a court order

Then his DOJ argued no court may even question him

And he called to impeach the judge

-Disappearing innocent people

-Abrogating judicial authority

-Attacking judges who apply the law

The stuff of tyrants

This last-minute lame attempt to literally phone it in while the voters of PA 7 are terrified and hurting is the ultimate act of cowardice. MacKenzie is an accomplice in the MAGA Party's attempt to strip away millions of Americans' healthcare and thinks he can hide from his constituents' anger.
U.S. Congressman Ryan Mackenzie wasn’t planning to face his voters — until we called him out. Now, at the last minute, he’s scrambling to hide behind a controlled telephone town hall.

It’s almost like he’s afraid to face his voters ... 🤔 Join us tomorrow for the town hall he’s too scared to have.

We reported on this a few days ago, but I want to point out this headline because this is where we are at.

A bill in Arkansas would ban gender affirming HAIRCUTS for transgender youth.

HAIRCUTS.

This is a straight up North Korea state sanctioned hairstyle proposed law for youth.
GOP bill could ban hairdressers from giving gender-nonconforming haircuts to minors - LGBTQ Nation
The bill would allow anyone to sue someone who affirms a young person's transition, and it specifically mentions hairstyles.
