She's in on it, she's tied up in some private school shyt from what I remember

I was cracking jokes on Internet Ass Muhfukkas looking to high school dropouts for leadership and the joke was on me

Breh, if I was you I wouldn't waste all that text, he reflexively defends anything Trump does has been for years

I feel you. It got to a point where it wasn’t about him, I’ve worked in that department and studied education policy so it felt good to think about the positive and share with people.

 

[ba'al]

They about to call you Maga.

Lol I got negged by someone's alt account for saying this. @the cac mamba I guess you're my sweatheart now apparently according to @kp404 who hasn't made a post since 2015.

I just repped dude back some positive rep. I ain't even tripping don't even have to argue back with these shills Republicans will do some more shyt to have these guys unhinged and going manic. Just sit back and watch the shyt show in real time might even take some of these cats off ignore to get a better view.

Does this mean we no longer have to pay taxes to schools? Or will they still be taking our money regardless but now no longer have any oversight.
(meaning essentially that we are paying them to discriminate against our kids now if they elect to.)

Most funding for schools comes from state and local taxes so probably not. Federal taxes owed may probably go down a little tho.

 

[Po pimp]

Wont happen. Congress aint having this shyt.

Meh, nothing surprises me with this administration...

trump wouldn't be getting away with this kinda shyt, and being able to set these narratives, if the democrats would clean up house when they're in power

i'm not "defending" anything. the fact is that the DOE, while doing good things, is also a completely unaccountable mediocrity, with bad results

I feel like tearing down the Department of Education is more about putting Black, Latino, and pretty much minority students at an academic disadvantage.

In other words, they are looking to “dumb down” these populations of students as a way of setting them up to fail once they reach adulthood, either because of having a lack of college access or not receiving the proper education in k-12 because funding and resources were cut.

Public schools, for the most part, are predominantly non-white, and private schools and Catholic/Charter schools are not feasible for low-income and working-class (not middle-class) families.

Department of Education isn't perfect, but completely abolishing it with no alternative isn't going to make the educational situation in the US any better.

Yep. Its already bad enough local tax policy pays for the state of underperforming schools...

 

[Spence]

Can someone break this down for me in laymans terms of what this means exactly? As in, what will happen without the DOE?

Making sure poor people get access cut

 

[Chrishaune]

Buy books so you can teach your kids.

You should already have a library by now.

And stop teaching them the lie of evolution.

It's not a big deal executive orders mean nothing so I was told
