		Apologies if this has already been posted.
The Trump creature is dismantling much of the dept of education which destroys an executive dept set up by congress under Jimmy Carter 45 years ago. Added to all the other cuts he's making, their future looks extremely scary.
Attacking Education, the Arts, funding for poorer areas in education, - all aimed at preventing learning too much. "Ignorance is the handmaiden of tyranny"
The article mentions Vance & Thiel & of course, Musk.
What despicable people they are.

		From today DOGE will be starting closing down Libraries and Museums.  This is a rumour/unverified at the moment.
	
	
	
It's not the least charm of a theory that it is refutable. The hundred-times-refuted theory of "free will" owes its persistence to this charm alone; some one is always appearing who feels himself strong enough to refute it - Friedrich Nietzsche

		We need to rescind Thiel's citizenship. Why? Because he's behind Making America Thicker Allover.

		Over when Trump is gone, I don't think so he is just one of many Americans who believe that things are essentially simple not complicated you just need some common sense not lots of schooling and all the analysis is just unnecessary.
Vance is next in line and Steve Bannon is saying that after Trumps third term which they are already planning Vance is in line.

Fat chance though, sadly.
