Billionaires are using their money to influence education.
And Trump is rolling out the red carpet to let them.
But they're not reshaping education - they're bulldozing it.
We must fight back to protect the future of our country and our children.

The Trump phone was supposed to be released in August. It's December first, & still no sign of it.
But don't worry! You can still pay the $100 deposit for a non-existent phone.
Is this the latest edition of the Trump family's scams and ripoffs?

Akio Toyoda, Toyota's shadow CEO, has gone full MAGA.
Under his watch, Toyota has cozied up to Trump & become the largest funder of climate deniers & the most aggressive anti-climate lobbyist in the auto industry.
Toyota's far from the green darling it claims to be.

Science-based information on the CDC's website was replaced with anti-vaccine rhetoric.
Decades of research has shown there is NO connection between vaccines & autism.
This admin is willing to bury facts in order to push their biased, warped viewpoints.

Donald Trump is reposting calls to hang Democratic politicians on his Truth Social account.
This is the type of deranged behavior you might expect from an internet troll, not the President of the United States.

The Trump White House will always find a way to hide and lie about how badly they are crashing the economy.
This is critical data that needs to be released to the public.
Trump doesn't get to magically erase it just because it makes him look bad.

People on FOX News saying grandma doesn't need slippers makes it seem like the economy is very, very bad.
But, Trump is touting that we're in an "economic golden age" and "prices are coming down."
So which is it???

17 out of 26 corporations funding Trump's ballroom project are clients of Brian Ballard, Jeff Miller, or Reince Priebus’s lobbying firms.
Those same firms helped raise $300 MILLION for the project.
The door is wide open for these lobbyists to seek favors from the Trump admin.

Trump’s comments about the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi were shameful & disgusting.
But unsurprising considering the Trump family is making tens of millions from deals with the Saudi government.
Congress must investigate this glaring conflict of interest immediately.

Trump's admin isn't "lifting" people off of food stamps. They're changing requirements & kicking people off.
Hundreds of thousands of Americans will struggle to put food on the table, & Trump is bragging about it.

Millions of Americans are getting kicked off Medicaid, energy costs are through the roof, and families are struggling to put food on the table.
And now the Trump admin is actively making it harder for millions to get SNAP benefits.
The moral depravity of this administration is beyond belief.

Every news outlet is covering Trump's reported involvement in the Epstein files.
So what does the admin do? Create a distraction.
They announced new trade "deals" with several Latin American countries.

There is already a law in place that does not allow federal funds to cover abortions.
Imagine pretending you’re “pro life” when you’re actually looking for any excuse to kick 22 million Americans off health care and further dictate what women can do with their bodies.

Reacting to the newly revealed messages where sex predator Jeffrey Epstein says Trump “knew about the girls” and had “spent hours” at his house with one of the victims, the White House is decrying “selectively released emails.”
