The merge part is so effective because we’ve been militarizing local police forces for years.

New, from me:
Trump's 3 step plan to create a military omniforce
1. Purge - those deemed disloyal
2. Merge - different parts of law enforcement/military
3. Surge - impose the omniforce on Dem cities; instigate unrest; assert dominance; silence dissent

Purge, Merge, and Surge

Trump is creating a omniforce of armed loyalists to establish his police state

Meanwhile, ed tech companies are salivating--eager to sell "solutions" to families whose schools will now struggle (even more than they already have) to meet their kids' learning needs.

(Here are a few of the ed tech ads I've been tracking over the past few months)

We are already losing/lost the worldwide leading research nation with the battle over DEI, funding, VISAs, etc. Take away public education, and we will never have a chance of regaining that status.

ProPublica @propublica.org · 12h

A policy expert described Education Secretary Linda McMahon’s push in favor of private schools as a “great American heist,” funneling money from public schools: “It’s a strategic theft of the future of our country, our kids and our democracy.”
