I don't understand why foreign countries aren't scooping up this knowledge base. The brain drain in the USA is going to be so quick under this second Trump administration.

Don't forget one of the most effective vaccines of all time against a 99.9999% deadly disease, rabies.

When kids start dying of Whooping Cough, I'm going to strongly encourage people to post their anger and direct it to not only Republican voters, but also to people who stayed home because "it doesn't matter."

Well no shit he's going to kill the tax credit. What did Musk think he was going to do? He'll probably kill off the space program too.

That seems pretty straightforward if you have experience with that stuff, I don't have that experience.

Anki is amazing, but it's not self hosted without some effort.

I'm all for protecting kids, but this goes beyond the reasonable boundaries of the nanny state.

Remember the 1st amendment? That was a good one while it lasted.

 

President-elect Donald Trump campaigned on the elimination of the U.S. Department of Education. Now, State Superintendent Ryan Walters is enthusiastically preparing Oklahoma schools for just that. A memo was sent to superintendents across the state on Thursday.

Walters says his department is “preparing to work hand in hand with an incoming Trump Administration to continue the work of dismantling the federal government’s decades of undue influence over public education.”

The memo supports eliminating the federal education department in favor of moving to block grants.

Walters outlines five areas where he sees this as beneficial for Oklahoma schools: Parental rights, ending social indoctrination in classrooms, protecting patriotism in curriculum, stopping illegal immigration’s impact on schools and blocking foreign influence.

The memo also says the state department will be directing its resources to ensure those priorities are championed so schools can smoothly transition after the coming changes.
