I'm still wondering why anyone is focused on Trump.
He's just the figurehead.
Focus on the people actually forming the policy.

This is absolutely ridiculous! There is no control or input regarding school academic content, use of funds, etc. It is just handing money out to religious groups without even knowing if they will spend it on education or not! It is unconstitutional!!!

As we move towards taxpayer funded Christian charter schools, Fascinating to watch @GovBillLee pretend steering public dollars to openly religious schools with vouchers/charters hasn’t been his #1 goal all along.

So maybe he drops the drug distraction all together and straight-up says he’s going for oil. It would follow his honesty pattern. Beyond the illegality of any strike, he’ll also jack oil prices — one of the only (exaggerated) things he’s got going for him.

It's pretty simple.
The Trump Cartel wants control of Venezuala's oil.
Maduro doesn't want to give it to them.
This conflict is little more than a turf war between rival criminal gangs.

This is a MASSIVE story. Our universities have been sabotaged by right wing neoconservative ideologues.

There’s plenty of money. It’s just being spent in the wrong areas. Like AUKUS.
