The Morning Report — 3/ 21 /25

BoredRandi.jpg

Good morning kids. Well, it looks as if the Dept. of Education is indeed dead. Of course I fully expect some judge to crawl out of the rim of Kilauea and declare the action null and void at any moment. In the past 45 years, about the only thing the Federal DoE did was waste billions of dollars and aid and abet the poisoning of two generations of the minds of America's school children. So, in turning off a major brainwashing mill, the reactions from the criminal scum and mutants also known as the Democrat Party were predictable.

The Department of Education, one of the 100 worst legacies of ‘Jimmuh’, the late and unlamented former worst president, is being slowly phased out by the Trump administration. Expect multiple legal battles to come and the media hysteria has been mounting for much of last week. The problem however is… who cares? The D of E is one of those things that sound important but are really just ways for government bureaucrats, special interests and their massive allied constellation of contractors and crooks to buy second homes.

If it only was mere graft. But the DoE was far worse than that in what it spearheaded

The Biden junta's Department of Education threw away over $100 million on university grant funding to train K-12 social workers in diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) ideology, “anti-racism,” and critical race theory.

According to a Wednesday report from Parents Defending Education (PDE), the Education Department awarded $100,964,880 to 26 colleges and universities for the far-left trainings. The grants were awarded apparently to help students with mental health under the Mental Health Service Professional Demonstration and the School-Based Mental Health Services grant programs. . . . The Education Department awarded an $8 million grant to Georgia State University’s Master of Social Work program in 2023. The program, which is directed at youth mental health, mandates a “Diversity and Social Justice” course, which “focuses on understanding and applying multicultural concepts to practice, developing awareness of one’s cultural identity, and exploring how diversity and justice issues impact generalist practice in the context of field education,” according to the university website. . . In addition to dismantling the Department of Education altogether, the Trump administration has also been focused on eradicating concepts like DEI ideology, critical race theory, and other discriminatory practices from schools. While the Trump administration had already slashed hundreds of millions in far-left teacher training, a Biden-appointed judge ordered the grants be reinstated.

Literally mainlining Mao and Mau-Mauism into the bloodstream of your children, from preschool to Post-graduate. It should be noted that every state in the union has its own Dept. of Education and you best believe that even in Red States, perversion, anti-Americanism, racialism and leftist indoctrination is in the curriculum to one degree or another.

And as far as judges are concerned, CBD and I discussed this on the latest episode of the podcast linked here and the sidebar. We are in agreement that Trump should disregard these lawless lower court hacks in black, but it raises the specter of the flaccid response from both Congress and SCOTUS in reining in these lawless tyrants as well as what a God-forbid never again Democrat president will do.

Funny how Democrats always view the actions of the court as sacrosanct, except of course when rulings don't go their way, then they go all out to either pack the court or delegitimize it. Failing that, attempt to impeach justices like Clarence Thomas, who they hate with a fury perhaps even greater than that for President Trump for a number of reasons, primarily in that he is the living embodiment that destroys so many of their beliefs and shibboleths about our society,their worldview and belief in their abosule moral authority to impose their will on us. And beyond impeachment, there's always assassination as an option, like what almost happened to Brett Kavanaugh. Lest we forget it was Chuck Schumer who openly threatened Kavanaugh and the other justices if they dared overturn Roe.

Funny, did SCOTUS ever overturn FDR's executive order rounding up Japanese Americans and putting them in concentration camps? The case was Korematsu. Meh, SCOTUS never overturned Dred Scott nor Plessy v. Ferguson. Just saying.


All things considered, the political and cultural winds are at Trump's and our backs at least for the present time on a whole host of issues. And as the Molotov cocktails go flying at Tesla dealerships, the flames seem to be setting the Democrats on fire.


This was the week I became convinced that Don Lemon is an undercover MAGA operative. The former CNN presenter was on Bill Maher’s podcast the other day and was asked about the dire outlook for the Democratic Party. Which way should it go?
“People love AOC” Lemon ventured. “People love Jasmine Crockett. People love Eric Swalwell and the like. I think the Democratic Party should put people out there who the people want — who they’re asking for.”
Maher begged to differ. People do not want these people, he pointed out. But Lemon continued to insist otherwise.
Personally I suspect the only person who ever even pretended to love Eric Swalwell was Chinese spy Fang Fang, who Rep. Swalwell was banging the other year. But that’s a detail.
As I say, the only explanation for Lemon’s statement (other than it being a characteristic brain-fart) is that Lemon is secretly working to keep the MAGA movement in power for the foreseeable future.

Because it is only if the Democrats swing to the hard left that they can make sure the Republicans continue in power unchallenged.
Because it is only if the Democrats swing to the hard left that they can make sure the Republicans continue in power unchallenged.
Desperate times may call for desperate thinking. But these are certainly desperate times for the Democrats.
Just consider how bad the situation is for the party.
First, it is utterly leaderless. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer is trying to hold the party together, but his decision to allow a vote on the Republicans’ government funding bill has led to a fall out among the party’s gerontocracy.
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, 84, this week jabbed at Schumer for giving away to the Republicans “for nothing” in exchange. So dire has been the backlash against Schumer (a mere stripling of 74) that he has canceled his upcoming book tour. “Security concerns” have been offered as the reason.
But that isn’t security concerns from Republican rivals — but rather from disgruntled members of his own party.
Second, there is the dire bench that the Democrats have coming up. One-time golden-boy Gavin Newsom has spent recent weeks trying to tidy up his image faster than he tried to tidy up the Palisades.
Today Governor Gavin is trying to “reach out” and show himself to be a man of the political center. By interviewing Steve Bannon.
Yet the disasters of Newsom’s time as governor will continue to swirl around him. And it’s unlikely that smoke will be able to clear from a bit of light podcasting.
Then there is the left of the party that is trying to drag it their way. But just look at how pathetic it is. It sounds more like a street movement than a political movement.
At a recent protest against federal government expenditure cuts, Democrat Congressman Emanuel Cleaver told an audience: “I want to send a message to somebody. Elon, take your musty millions and musty Moscow rights to the moon. Because if you don’t, we are going to stand up, we are going to speak out, we´re going to march and we are going to do anything we need to do. You must your musty hands off our money or go to Moscow, you musty moo, moo, moo.”

The Gettysburg Address it was not.
But in case anyone forgets, Rep. Cleaver is a member of the Financial Services Subcommittee. And this is the best that he and his colleagues can do? To threaten to stand up and speak out and march and moo?
Similar vibes are coming out of Boston, where Mayor Michelle Wu yesterday announced again that her city will not comply with ICE or any other agencies seeking to remove dangerous illegal migrants from her area.

Confirming her stance, Wu said “We stand with immigrants, you belong here. Boston doesn’t back down. If you come for one of us, you will get all of us.”
So Wu is willing to stand-off against the federal government and law enforcement based on the idea that someone who breaks into America illegally and stays in Boston has as much right to be there as anyone who has spent their whole life working in the city and paying taxes there?
That’s a heck of a platform to run on.
Meanwhile the party’s road-kill are doing what they can to cheer themselves up. This week former VP Candidate Tim Walz (remember him?) cropped up to boast about how masculine he is and how threatening that makes him to Republicans. I won’t repeat the nickname that did for Tim. . . It´s not a much prettier picture in this town [NYC], where the best challenger the Democrats can run for Mayor is Andrew Cuomo — a former governor who was forced to resign in shame.
If the Democrats are willing to take any friendly advice they should accept the fact that they really need to come up with some coherent policies. Something at a higher level than a street protest.
But if you were their enemy? Well then, like Don Lemon, you’d tell them to go the way of AOC and Cleaver and Walz and Wu, and encourage them to moo and moo ’til they can moo no more.

To channel and paraphrase a popular insult, when your enemies are setting themselves on fire, don't cross the street to piss on them.

As for DOGE and the courts, if Trump ignores the hacks in black and charges forward, does he give Democrats an avenue of attack and as mentioned earlier, future precedent to ignore the courts. Then again they've used the courts and bureaucracy as both shield and cudgel to amass, maintain and increase their own political power, thanks to their amorality, criminality and the spinelessness of the institutions and people in them that were supposed to prevent that from happening.

Trump or no Trump, is our society so far gone that even 40 more years of Trump and MAGA administrations might not make a dent in reversing course?

At least the dismantling of the DoE is a positive and necessary opening salvo in the attempt.

May We now go from victory to victory and see our wonderful nation if not fully restored in our lifetime, then secure in the knowledge that it is well on that path that it will be, God-willing.

Have a great weekend.

15 Well, it looks as if the Dept. of Education is indeed dead.

Not really dead. Trump cannot kill it on his own. It has, however, been reduced to the minimum that Congress has specifically required. Hopefully, the people in this country will see that getting rid of the federal DoE won't, actually, destroy all education in this country and pressure can build on Congress to pull their thumbs out of their asses and actually do something worthwhile for the first time in decades by driving a stake through its heart.

38 Education scores aren't entirely to blame on teachers because it's on the students to put in the effort to learn and develop the skills and concepts.

-

The problem is the teachers aren't providing the concepts to develop the skills. And it's intentional. Which is why it has to be destroyed.

Ask a high schooler about their "renewable" energy instruction. They'll have months about it in their science and math classes, instead of a footnote that says "these are interesting but overall ineffective and inefficient methods that might make sense in very limited situations where it's not feasible to run electrical lines to the area" or something similar.

But they're propagandized because legislation is already in place and they need voters for what will come. See also: global warming

I'm convinced Common Core was put in place to make kids worse at truly learning or understanding math and just teaching make-work methods to fill the time for teachers to have something easy to do all year long instead of requiring kids to simply memorize 2+2 = 4 and 2x4 = 8 and move on to the next challenge.

Looking at the data I'm not wrong.

62 No, the judicial insurrection is not worse than I thought it would be. I saw it coming.

66 Education scores aren't entirely to blame on teachers because it's on the students to put in the effort to learn and develop the skills and concepts.

Too many young people in this country have no ambition beyond living off welfare or becoming a rapper / athlete / "influencer". Places in the inner-city black community where becoming educated is a cause for shame.

At the same time, there's plenty of teachers who've fed into that over the years.

After: Remember the square we've been working on for the last two weeks in order to learn how three dots and three dots will give you nine dots, class? You have two weeks until the test on how to do the dot squares.

(not what the math is, mind you, but how to do the dots)

72 Marc Elias: BREAKING: Federal Judge takes first step towards finding Trump administration in contempt.. "By March 25, 2025, Defendants shall file a brief showing cause why they did not violate the Court's Temporary Restraining Orders."

Contempt finding requires an Order to Show Cause hearing. But yeah, they keep giving Trump extra time to comply. When it is clear he will not comply.

Meanwhile, they'll disappear twenty more planeloads of "terrorists" to their Central American torture gulag while gleefully thumbing their noses at the judge. The Trump administration has zero intention of following the judge's orders. Holding these scofflaws in contempt means nothing to them.

hopefully a few GQP Congress Critters will pay attention? I'm not holding my breath, but MAYBE the third time's a charm and they'll do their damned job and remove him from office.

135 Our American culture has venerated mediocrity over excellence for way too long (at least since the ’90s and likely longer). That doesn’t start in college, it starts YOUNG. A culture that celebrates the prom queen over the math olympiad champ, or the jock over the valedictorian, will not produce the best engineers.

Yeah, it's funny that during the last ten years or so we've watched severely disabled kids be routinely voted prom kings and queens so that the parents and communities would briefly feel good about themselves, but the bright people doing bright people things have been doing the same bright people things they've always done, with the same teasing and public shunning, with few mandatory accolades or required cheers from the popular or pretty kids.

Yep. It's why they went so hard on the (gay, which for some reason they left out) child rapists in the Catholic church.

The sexual abuse by teachers in the school system dwarfs the number of kids abused in churches, but it gave the MSM something to point at as a distraction so parents didn't start WrongThinking.

True. But if there's only one boat out there...

Consider. A sub may be on a six month deployment. But then it's gotta come back into the barn, go through maintenance, refit, get the new crew trained and up to speed, etc.

Realistically subs are on about a 12 month tempo. If you don't have anything else to cover the downtime for that boat...

On one hand, she isn't shy about making brash announcements about the Epstein list, without results. And she is not shy in other areas of PR.

349 Yeah, it's funny that during the last ten years or so we've watched severely disabled kids be routinely voted prom kings and queens so that the parents and communities would briefly feel good about themselves, but the bright people doing bright people things have been doing the same bright people things they've always done, with the same teasing and public shunning, with few mandatory accolades or required cheers from the popular or pretty kids.

I would say that the bright, intelligent and talented people rightly regard "awards" and "feels" as trivial things that do not signify achievement in any way.

IIRC most of the "noise" from subs come from their propulsion plant (the nuclear reactor, pumps, mechanical parts, etc.) It's actual movement through the water isn't much of a noise producer unless they're moving fast... then it's most likely bubbles produced from the propeller (called "cavitation.")

395 The Bidens want back in

With the Democratic Party struggling to find a new direction, former President Joe Biden and former first lady Jill Biden have offered to jump in and help with fundraising and rebuilding.

Former President Joe Biden has told some Democratic leaders he’ll raise funds, campaign and do anything else necessary for Democrats to recover lost ground as the Trump administration rolls back programs the party helped design, according to people close to him.

Biden privately met last month with the new Democratic National Committee chairman, Ken Martin, and offered to help as the party struggles to regain its viability amid polling that shows its popularity has been sinking, the people said.

405 Be Warned: Khamenei Vows ‘Hard Slap’ Response to U.S. If It Dares Challenge Iran

Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei warned Friday the U.S. should prepare for a “hard slap” if it dares challenge Tehran, after President Donald Trump warned of possible military action against the Islamic republic. “The Americans should know threats will get them nowhere when confronting Iran,” Khamenei said in his live annual televised speech marking Nowruz, the Persian New Year. AFP reports he said Americans “and others should know that if they do anything malign to the Iranian nation, they will get a hard slap.”

433 Hi, Anna Puma

Thanks for the Information on Jemima who was actually Welsh and was considered a local hero for capturing and imprisoning some French soldiers in a local church:

"But earlier that day, it seems that a number of local people had more success. Accounts vary, but most have locals armed with makeshift weapons such as scythes and old guns. They set upon some of the French troops, injuring and killing a few. Stories abound, too, that local women in their traditional dress of red shawl and tall black hats were mistaken by some of the invaders – maybe in an alcohol-induced haze – for British regular troops in red coats and black shakos, their black, military caps.

Among them was Jemima Nicholas, a Fishguard cobbler and shoemaker who is said to have single-handedly captured a dozen French soldiers at the point of her pitchfork and marched them into the town where she locked them in St Mary’s Church. She has rightly been venerated in the town as a heroine ever since, and her story has become something of a Welsh legend."

441 Bernie is touting AOC. So she's the revenge candidate for the symbiotic ecosystem of NGO grift and the gusanos in the administrative state who fed them (and the traffic from one to the other through a revolving door.)
They've been looting the public fisc for decades. Or sucking the blood of the American citizen, and like vampires whose feeding is disturbed, they're pissed.
But because the American public is disgusted with the (D)s, the only way out is to increase terrorism and steal as many elections as they can. Terrorism serves internal purposes for the movement, too: is a fundraising tactic (and the fundraising apparatus is already taking dark and foreign money) that also trains their shock troops for the violence that will surround important elections.
