When President Trump nominated Linda McMahon as education secretary, he told her to put herself out of a job. She moved one step closer to that this week when the Trump administration shifted the responsibility of several departments to other federal agencies. NPR’s Juana Summers speaks with former Obama education secretary John King about what this could mean for public education in America and some of the most vulnerable students.

You see #JohnKing, #DanaBash, #JakeTapper, & #AOC360, they tell YOU it's inflation or the economy or maybe go as far as the border, because they know you, living as you do in Washington DC with your heads up your asses, would despise them and be repulsed by the truth, which is that they are backward, disgusting racist bigots who just want their #WhiteSupremacy intact. They are enraged by the #WokeAgenda, also #MeToo, and absolutely by #BlackLivesMatter, or hearing people talk other languages. 2/
Let me explain something to you, #JohnKing and #CNN. From a middle-class Midwestern suburb. These Trump voters do not care about #Inflation. They don't talk about the fucking price of eggs. They don't talk about NATO or healthcare. They talk about how sick and tired they are of needing to hide their #racism and #bigotry. They talk about trans people and "the inner city crime". They are tired of having their disgusting views ignored or objected to at work, at the bar and at family gatherings. 1/
You know what #JohnKing of #CNN? There are an awful lot of people who make less than $75K per year who aren't stupid enough to vote for Donald Fucking Trump. So maybe it isn't the Dems in Washington who are the problem. Maybe it's the news media who refuse to tell people the truth and simp that Trump and Harris are equal candidates.
