If the control of education is going to return to the state level, maybe this will be the solution for the mass exodus from blue states. You want an actual good education? Don’t move to Texas.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I voted for the Rapist Convicted Felon because I'm a LAW AND ORDER voter and I SUPPORT this even though it's Illegal!
This is fucking horrifying. Americans you need to do something wtf is going on down there
A significant portion of our population, primarily in Republican controlled regions, didn't receive an adequate education, so they lack critical thinking skills or any concept of how our government actually functions.
Does this mean schools can now give as many trans rights as they want? State rights?
The stupidest part of all this is its going to hurt the red states the most. Blue states already have great education
Can conservatives even get more stupid?
I would have thought voting for a felon rapist traitor who gives tax breaks to the wealthy over an actual prosecutor was rock bottom.
But I guess there is no rock bottom for conservatives.
But although Wells Fargo has more than 200,000 employees, the Department of Education has fewer than 1,500 in its Office of Federal Student Aid.
So it's more efficient than a bank, BUT needs to be run by an actual bank? How stupid does he think we are?
How stupid does he think we are?
Before or after destroying the Department of Education? The entire reason behind this is that uneducated people don't know their rights or how the government works, so the GOP can run roughshod over our rights.
77,302,580 americans are that stupid...
But he needs Congressional approval to do so.
He needs to have not committed insurrection to become President.
I think Schumer and the other spineless Dems will have no problem bending over and being a submissive bitch for him like they did with the funding.
Pretending that the old rules still apply is how Empires fall.
I'm looking forward to Schumer whipping up enough bootlickers on the dem side to pass this in the spirit of cooperation
It turns out the ones indoctrinating the kids have been the conservatives all along.
Fuck school choice vouchers.
Wow.
I looked at the articles that was expecting for that to happen today, never thought he would actually do it.
Yet more evidence that trump is an agent of Putin and is actively dismantling the United States one piece at a time
