Why Trump Will Defund Dept. of Education

Follow the Racists > Follow the Money

Who Wore it Better?

New pick for high-level State Department job: “Competent white men must be in charge if you want things to work.”

From the 1990s to Project 2025

The Catholic Supreme Court will destroy Dept of Education and get all the publics’ money to their Private Equity companies and the Church.

Trump about to cripple Education Department, hoping Congress will kill it

THEY ELECTED TRUMP
A CONTUMACIOUS CONVICT, FELON, RAPIST, AND RACIST 

STARTING IN THE 1950’s Racists won’t accept “Separate but Equal”  so they  take their kids to private schools.

They own the private schools.

1990s They get the Public’s money to follow their kid to the private school.
THE PUBLIC’S MONEY FOLLOWS THE CHILD AND PUBLIC SCHOOLS ARE NOW DEFUNDED.

Early 2000s the Public’s Money was diverted from the public to Private Equity Online Schools  but none of the standards that public schools have are applied to them. Kids are dumber, cause there were no standards but now they blame covid. All along it it was Private Equity who owns those schools with no standards and no one blames them.

2020s  they get the public’s money to pay for  all private “RELIGIOUS” online and offline schools.

THE BIGGEST PLUNDER
THE DEPT. OF EDUCATION

REMEMBER BETSY DEVOSS WORKED FOR TRUMP THE LAST TIME

Leonard Leo, Opus Dei and the Radical Catholic Takeover of the Supreme Court – PROJECT 2025
https://churchandstate.org.uk/2022/05/leonard-leo-opus-dei-and-the-radical-catholic-takeover-of-the-supreme-court/

There is no separation between Church and State

Leonard Leo, Opus Dei and the Radical Catholic Takeover of the Supreme Court

Leonard Leo the Chancellor of the US Knights of Malta, a christofascist arm of the Catholic Church that fought the Crusades & sided with Hitler in WWII.
Members:
Erik Prince – Betsy DeVoss’ brother
Leonard Leo – Trump’s very bad lawyer Alina Habba is Leonard Leo’s daughter.
Rupert Murdoch
Phyllis Schlafly—Close associate of Mike Flynn’s mom Helen
William Casey—Reagan CIA Director & founder of the Manhattan Institute

The “Knights of Malta” was a medieval military Order called “Hospitallers” that the Catholic Church wielded in the Crusades along with the “Knights Templar.”

Multiple neo-Nazi mass murderers have signaled to the Knights of Malta in their manifestos. Christchurch killer Brenton Tarrant included inscriptions to the Knights of Malta on his shotgun.

The “Knights of Malta” was a medieval military Order called “Hospitallers” that the Catholic Church wielded in the Crusades along with the “Knights Templar.”

Today it’s a small but powerful “remnant” of a nearly thousand year old racist crusade to remove Islam from the Earth.

Dr. Edwin J. Feulner has served as the President of The Heritage Foundation since 1977. He was a founding Trustee of Heritage in 1973. He is a Knight of Malta and a Knight of the Holy Sepulchre. The Heritage fund got the Catholic Supreme Court Elected and with one decision, Trump vs United States the court created Trump “a king above the law” a “law-free zone” around the presidency – and changed the country.

US Knights of Malta wants all the Public School funds from the Department of Education turned over to Catholic Schools.

In a 6-3 decision, with the justices divided along ideological lines, the court held that Donald Trump had substantial immunity from prosecution for actions that took place while he was in office. Specifically, the ruling said that presidents had “absolute” immunity when it came to their core constitutional powers, and “at least a presumptive immunity” for other actions within the “outer perimeter of his official responsibility”.

THE BIGGEST GRIFT

Trump will defund the Department of Education. Musk the richest man in the world will help Trump defund your public school. Trump isn’t going to stop him.

The 15 states who receive the most federal funding for schools all voted for Trump. Now, they fear he will do exactly what he said he would, and eliminate the Department of Education. He will send funding back to states where poverty is high.

Republicans spent years attacking education, trying to push public money to fund for-profit, private schools. Why? Because their private equity and billionaire donors own those for-profit schools.

DOGE Chief Claims to ‘Delete’ GSA’s 18F Tech Group

General Services Administration’s 18F technology group.

Elon Musk, the head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), is making claims on his social media account that he had “deleted” the General Services Administration’s 18F technology group.

Those claims in turn have led to some confusion about whether at least one tech-driven project that 18F helped to engineer – the Direct File program created by the IRS – is still available.

18F is housed within GSA and helps Federal agencies improve their digital services. 18F was launched in 2014 and has since then helped improve Federal website accessibility, modernize technology, enhance data access, and boost the government’s customer service experience.

A U.S. SOVEREIGN WEALTH FUND

Trump signs an Executive Order calling for the creation of a Sovereign Wealth Fund
Their responsibility to manage national wealth.
Black Rock Larry Fink wants a SWF.

Fact Sheet: President Donald J. Trump Orders Plan for a United States Sovereign Wealth Fund
February 3, 2025

  • The Executive Order directs the Secretary of the Treasury and the Secretary of Commerce to deliver a plan within 90 days for the creation of a sovereign wealth fund.
    • The Secretary of the Treasury and the Secretary of Commerce will work closely with the Director of the Office of Management and Budget and the Assistant to the President for Economic Policy to develop the plan.
    • The Order directs the Secretary to include in the plan recommendations for funding mechanisms, investment strategies, fund structure, and a governance model.

GAME ON
The Importance of a Sovereign Wealth Fund
Sovereign Wealth Funds play a vital role in diversifying a country’s assets, generating long-term returns, and contributing to economic stability. They strengthen a nation’s financial position, fund critical infrastructure projects, promote domestic industries, and generate returns that can be reinvested into the nation’s economy.
BREAKING: Blackrock says “Sovereign wealth funds, pension funds and endowments” are coming to #Bitcoin
Institutions are coming big time.

It’s essential to understand that SWFs are managed based on their respective mandates, with transparent governance structures and investment strategies tailored to the specific goals of the fund and the country it represents.

POLITICS

@RalphNader
The plunge in the stock market based on Trump’s announcement of 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada was suddenly reversed when he paused for a month. The market then surged back. This is the first of many vast insider trading opportunities for the Trumpsters who get advance notice about how Trump’s impulsive actions are going to be announced. Will the Securities and Exchange Commission apply the requisite staff to track these possible serious violations? There will be many more surges up and down in the stock market to come given the preliminary dictates and announcements of the Trump Administration. -R

How to make Elon get out of the building? Elon be stripped of his clearance and removed. Dmitry Medvedev praised Musk (not Trump) for trying to close USAID. When our enemies are praising your actions, maybe time to rethink your actions.

Dozens of Department of Education employees received letters as business hours closed Friday placing them on administrative leave, according to a copy of one letter obtained by ABC News.

DEMOCRATS

STOP VOTING THESE PEOPLE IN.

or a long time, I thought the Democrats were fighting valiantly but just overwhelmed by the oligarchy and the Republicans.
Then I saw that the Democrats keep losing fights they should win and figured they must be just weak and ineffectual.
Then I kept seeing them backing off without putting up any fight at all and decided they were gutless cowards.
Finally, I noticed that enough of them keep voting with the Republicans to always ensure that the Republicans more or less win almost every fight, and that they start by bargaining from the Center position and moving Right—and eventually, after enough of that, it became to ignore the only conclusion that actually fits the facts:
The Democrats are not overmatched, they aren’t weak, they aren’t cowards … they’re complicit.”Chris Wright, Former Fracking Executive, Confirmed As Nation’s 17th Energy SecretaryThe final 59-38 Senate tally to confirm Chris Wright as energy secretary is out.

It is not a real department.
It has never been a real department.
Elon Musk has no legal authority to do anything and has zero congressional approval.
Anything to do with “DOGE” is ILLEGAL.

For Immediate Release

Office Of Press Relations pr***@***id.gov
The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) has delivered 5,000 Starlink Terminals to the Government Of Ukraine through a public-private partnership With the American aerospace manufacturer, SpaceX.
The Starlink satellite terminals Will enable unlimited, unthrottled data connectivity from anywhere in Ukraine. The terminals Will allow public officials and critical citizen service providers to continue to communicate within Ukraine and with the outside world, even if Putin’s brutal aggression severs Ukraine’s fiber optic Or cellular communication infrastructure connections.
Since Putin’s unprovoked, further invasion Of Ukraine on February 24, USAID has been working closely with humanitarian partners in Ukraine and in the region to reach Ukrainians with lifesaving humanitarian assistance while also ramping up development programs to respond to cyber attacks, disinformation, threats to the energy sector, essential health needs, and to support the continued functioning Of local and national government entities.
For citizens who want to help get vital assistance to Ukrainians in need, there’s one thing to remember: cash is best. That’s because it’s efficient, flexible, and allows humanitarian organizations on the ground to buy what’s most needed, quickly.

Then Musk is subject to the criminal financial conflict of interest statute, 18 U.S.C. § 208 which prohibits him from participating in any government matter that could affect his own financial interest.
Thousands of people are setting up lawsuits against Elon Musk; millions are calling for his arrest.

“Dox” used to mean “my social security number and home address were posted on 4chan” and now it’s “naming the people administering the federal government.” Like ‘disinformation’ before it, rendered completely and hilariously meaningless by overuse. That invitation by the U.S. attorney in DC for Musk to flag it when he doesn’t respect the difference was very alarming. Everyone should keep reporting out the facts. Including on the embeds. It’s irrelevant if they’re 19 and over their skis for Musk and/or Thiel.

Remember Elon wants to take Twitter / X to be exactly like the Chinese product called WeChat “The Everything App” that is the ultimate payment surveillance device EVERYONE uses in China. Now with all the date he just stole from the government servers he is closer to his plan.

@thejackhopkins
I know you are likely on edge right now. You might even be terrified.
I say this with as much conviction and authenticity as I can muster: This is not going to work out well for Donald Trump’s presidency in the end.
I spoke to a man I’ve known for some 45 years at the gas pump this morning. He was a “dyed in wool” Republican who voted for Trump. “That fucker is NUTS!” he told me.
I just said, “Yeah…he is.” The “realization virus” is spreading.
The NY FBI is leading the way with their refusal to comply. This will become contagious.

This is the ultra rich vs. everyone else, cruel vs. humane, and good vs. evil. This isn’t funny and it isn’t ok. The world deserves better.
He doesn’t want to make people’s lives better here and now. He belongs to a Silicon Valley cult, TESCREAL. The L stands for Longtermism.
Those ideologies, we believe, are a central reason why companies like OpenAI, funded primarily by Microsoft, and its competitor, Google DeepMind, are trying to create “artificial general intelligence” in the first place.

@BrooklynDad_Defiant! Just two weeks ago, everyone was screeching about China stealing all of our data through TikTok, but now Elon steals it and you MAGA crisis actors are OK with it?
That’s some fucking bullshit.

@jackmallers
We are witnessing the unwind of the WW2 economic order.
What’s happening now is much bigger than tariffs. For nearly 80 years the US exported dollars while importing goods & debt. That system is failing.
What’s next? A move back to a neutral reserve currency. Got #Bitcoin?

In case anyone missed it, the tuberculosis outbreak in Kansas has now spread to Ohio. Trump has ordered the CDC to not report on this.

US court grants IRS request to probe clients of offshore finance giant
Trident Trust was at the center of ICIJ’s Pandora Papers investigation exposing the offshore holdings of some of the world’s wealthiest and most powerful people.
Trident Trust clients who used its services to break U.S. tax laws and is now seeking information about the firm’s other clients. The court order authorizes the IRS to serve a so-called “John Doe” summons on Nevis Services Limited, the Trident Trust affiliate in New York City, to obtain records related to its clients’ offshore holdings from 2014 through 2023. The IRS uses these summonses when seeking information about possible tax abuse by individuals whose identities are unknown.
Trident Trust, founded in the British Virgin Islands in the 1980s, is one of the largest players in the world of offshore finance, where wealthy clients set up opaque shell companies and trusts.

Handcuffs pose a particular key management problem. Officers need to be able to unlock handcuffs locked by another officer, so they’re all designed to be opened by a standard set of keys. This system only works if the bad guys can’t get a copy of the key, and modern handcuff manufacturers go out of their way to make it hard for regular people to get copies of the key. At the recent HOPE conference, someone made copies of these keys using a 3D printer.
