I recently published a piece on PragerU, an unaccredited school registered as a nonprofit, which is behind controversial right-wing propaganda videos recently approved for Florida schools.

I looked at hundreds of 990s to identify the largest recent funders of PragerU and how they are spending their money (Facebook, Google)

The Oklahoma Dept of Education just announced a partnership with PragerU - they are spreading.

I tend to agree. Elon appears to be one of those monstrously immoral people who doesn’t really strike me as committed to anything but his ID. Much like Donald Trump. And that makes him just as dangerous.

Dean Obeidallah on how the GOP is responding to the climate change crisis:

"On Wednesday, the GOP controlled House Appropriations committee voted for sweeping funding cuts for the Environmental Protection Agency and other programs designed to address climate change--while at same time boosting development of the very fossil fuels driving the environmental disasters that have ravaged the Northern Hemisphere this year."
