The Trump Presidency Timeline

stable genius's war on education continues, with a new executive order aimed at gutting the Department of Education because, apparently, an informed public is just too dangerous. The plan? Strip away anything not explicitly mandated by law—because who needs pesky things like civil rights enforcement, student loan oversight, or, you know, actual education policy? After all, if kids stop learning history, they might not notice when it's repeating itself.

In the land of the free market, 22-year-old Cole Schmidtknecht faced a choice: pay $539 for his asthma inhaler or cover his rent. After his insurance provider, OptumRx, reclassified his medication without notice, the inhaler's price skyrocketed from $66 to over $500, leaving Cole unable to afford it.

But hey, why bother fixing the root causes of school violence when you can just arrest children and call it a win? hint: ITS THE GUNS DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE GUNS

Districts in cities like Chicago, Denver, and New York are introducing policies to limit ICE’s access to school grounds, refusing to cooperate without judicial warrants, and ensuring schools remain sanctuaries. While Trump claims raids on schools will be “extremely rare,” educators are preparing for the worst, with some districts even instituting lockdown procedures for uninvited government officials. It’s a bold stand for vulnerable students in an era where compassion and safety seem harder to come by.

A teacher at Central Dauphin Middle School in Pennsylvania has resigned following backlash for allegedly calling a Muslim student a "terrorist." The incident has sparked discussions about Islamophobia and the importance of cultural sensitivity in educational settings. What the fuck is wrong with people? that's a child
