The Trump administration came to the Supreme Court on Wednesday morning, asking the justices to pause an order by a federal judge in Massachusetts that requires the Department of Education to reinstate more than $65 million in training grants meant to address teacher shortages that it terminated in February because they funded programs that have diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives.

    Republicans have always hated education, mostly because properly educated kids have been taught critical thinking skills, which give citizens the ability to detect and reject propaganda, which the Conservative Propaganda Machine relies on to recruit and indoctrinate new amd existing Republicans.

    Also, you know that old saying “Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it?” That’s supposed to be a cautionary saying, but Republicans see that it as a game plan. So they don’t want students learning about things that they think makes them look bad, like slavery, the Native American genocide, the Civil War, etc. DeSatan, who has waged outright war with the Florida education system, said “I dont want kids learning anything thay makes them feel guilty about being white,” so he killed any curriculum that taught anything about our racial history, including the Civil War. Florida’s educational system is now systemically racist - by design.
