What are they going to think if the orange troll is able to dismantle the Department of Education and cut funds to schools that help students with disabilities? Well now that there are no DEI programs the schools don't have to deal with their disabled kids anyway.

Turns out that this means anyone that is not white (even if their family has been legal residents for generations). I have a friend whose name was submitted to ICE....waiting to see what happens. That is some scary stuff. My husband is clamoring to move out of our neighborhood due to an increase in crime and homeless people living on High St. (Which if you know anything about Columbus, is the main north-south thoroughfare, and we live right off of it.) He also does not like the progressive trend of our neighborhood. Crime has increased a little bit, but it's not immigrants committing the crimes. He keeps asking me if I feel safer with all the deportations going on and my answer is no. He recently also sent me an article about an immigrant from Ghana (who was here legally) who was arrested for having sex with a minor and asked me if I felt safer having this guy in jail. My answer again was "No." because I haven't been a minor for a long, long time.

I have a cousin who works with disabled kids. Has been an advocate for people with disabilities for years. Yet, she voted for the orange troll and puts pro-Trump stuff on her Facebook page all the time. I don't get it.

Most of the Department Of Education sends funding to schools for programs that help disabled kids. So if they get read of the DOE that's going to make things a mess.

It's not considered discrimination if your parents can't afford private schools, or maybe they just teach you from the Bible themselves. Science is all liberal propaganda anyway. Higher education is just part of their Agenda, like public libraries or parks. 1 hour ago, Montana Bengal said: Like they give a shit. The more normal people are upset by it the more they're getting off on it. They don't mind suffering so long as they get to see their scapegoats punished more. The ol' "Eat a shit sandwich so I can make you smell my breath" types. Hurt me, Daddy Trump!

Gotti were all clients) then later defended him in court over Fair Housing Act violations when Trump landlords were caught quoting higher rents & other terms to minorities, or simply telling them they had nothing available. Y'know, like, why we had Affirmative Action/"DEI" in the first place. Be sure and ask the next person who says "DEI" around you what it stands for, that's been a hoot. anyway. and then Mr. Cohn got disbarred.. and died of AIDS (big Studio 54 patron like Trump himself, except they say Trump never danced. Bit surprising because if I had to guess where he learned that "Jerking Off Two Giraffes" dance it would've been Studio 54, but that's really none of my business.) and then the IRS came and took almost everything Cohn left behind.

Its mixed reporting which is likely intentional, but I've also heard they have read/write and people in the office there are basically having to do everything they kids say
February 6Feb 6 Author comment_1786442 NEWS: Some IRS employees who accepted OPM's “deferred resignation” offer are now being told they must stay on the job thru May 15, because the agency has deemed their work “essential” to this year’s tax filing season. “I want the deal that OPM offered,” an IRS employee told me.— Jory Heckman (@jheckmanWFED) February 5, 2025

They can bake ICE a cake and maybe shine their boots before they leave. Sounds good to me!!

Meaning they can hold you indefinitely without trial since who knows what a "citizen" technically is now , and the Constitution flapping in the wind regardless. Off you go!
