Protest rules seem like they should be easy: 1. No violence 2. No threats of violence 3. No impeding the free movement of others 4. Private property owners decide how their property is used Stick with those, and all should be fine. Don't, and you should be shut down.
Another update today. All caught up. cato.org/public-schooli… #WWFSchool And remember, we're constantly updating older battles, many of which drag on for years.
I'm starting to wonder if these kinds of hearings are useful or unproductively fanning flames. And it's not Congress's job to police colleges.

More bad reasoning on student loans. Student loans do not reduce consumer spending. Student loans INCREASE consumer spending... on higher ed. It's an increase.

Of course, the whole department should be shut down and most of its functions eliminated. Probably starting with student loans.
A lot of education discussed in this article. Not only does POTUS not have authority to dictate school policy, constitutionally, the federal government itself has very little.

Good. Changes to law must be done by Congress - the peoples' representatives - not the president. How a republic works.

Why should they be on the hook for any student's loans?
Wouldn't it be nice if ED devoted a fraction of the effort it gives to shameless, self-serving PR to its basic job, like simplifying FAFSA? blog.ed.gov/2024/04/update…
Hold on here @NPR. These student loans are held by the government. If the government cuts payments, taxes have to be higher for someone & they spend less (or another gov program has to be cut). Two sides to this transaction. npr.org/2024/04/26/124…

@delislealleges 1/ Implication of the reporting seems to be that things that reduce consumer spending are bad for the economy. Student loans do just that. But just like college tuition inflating b/c of easy student loans, credit itself inflates the cost of goods
Governor, I appreciate all you’ve done in Oklahoma, but “hate speech” is a vague, left-wing concept we should reject. Protect speech, punish violence. You wisely abolished DEI in your state—don’t revive it.
If you’re standing with these terrorist groups— it’s time to get your head examined. We’re all about free speech in Oklahoma. But hate speech isn’t going to be tolerated.
Definitely voting Trump now.
BREAKING: Journalists are acknowledging that if Trump wins the election, this may be the last White House Correspondents Dinner. Trump doesn’t believe in a free press. Retweet so all Americans see this.

If you follow school choice debates, you’ve probably noticed a sharp uptick in folks who suddenly care about state budgets. What they fail to mention, is just how small choice is relative to K-12 budgets overall (even in states with universal programs). Case in point: New…

@NealMcCluskey Are these the “rights” that parents “give up” if they find a different school that helps their kid?
@NealMcCluskey Not just to pay for the system but to send their kids into the school too.
@NealMcCluskey And we don’t even have to end them to defuse the fight, just allow people the choice to take the money elsewhere. Some mutuals have argued that people would still fight over public money going to ideas they don’t like, but I can’t imagine it would be anywhere near as bad.
Eliminate the US Department of Education
It's always the right time to end the US Department of Education. It is unconstitutional, and has quite possibly made education worse. nypost.com/2024/04/23/opi…
@NealMcCluskey I've put my hat in the ring to be the next Secretary of Education. First (and last) order of business is to abolish the agency.
Let’s assume the worst is true, and the CCP is tilting TikTok’s algorithm. I have never ruled this out. Why should our government ban foreign ownership of social media? Why is this a legitimate state function? The justification for FCC regulation of TV/radio was limited…
In the last 24 hours, two of our leading media sources (NYT & WSJ) have produced research pieces with hard data on why the U.S. should ban TikTok. Here is the NYT's killer chart. Tiktok systematically censors 80-99% of posts on certain viewpoints, relative to Instagram. 1/3
