POTUS says he is dismantling the Dept of Ed because
1. it indoctrinates kids with liberal propaganda
2. control of education should be returned to the states
3. America spends the most on education in the world
1. & 2. Dept of Ed doesn't control curriculum. States do
3. US is 6th in Ed spending

BLS, Federal Reserve, and Census are putting out complete data sets. It all aligns w/ State level data.
This undercuts the integrity of employees doing great work.
*It's people's new sources or specific Agency Heads spewing nonsense!
The nonsense comes from the top.
For a consumer of news, it can sometimes be difficult to determine the veracity of the source, so all data becomes suspect, which may be the point.
I suggest ignoring most of them... I only watch the local station for area events and Bloomberg for pretty much everything else. (The rest I ignore. Even here it's, at times, highly biased.)
Same here. I knew what you meant. Bluesky needs an edit feature!
It isn’t here yet but will be by tomorrow:

Wife went to HS in VA, me in MA and we had vastly different curriculum.
State/County/District control creates these voids that at times are race based (MA taught slavery, VA not so much!)
*$ per capita ignores population size, GDP component.
Texas is the largest purchaser of textbooks and sets too much of the product content.
Meanwhile D.C. buys books and keeps them in a warehouse since no one will drive them to schools?
The variations are what hurt outcomes.
What the DOE does do is set guidelines and standards, create programs for disabled children, help route funding to lower income areas, etc.
Serious lines are being crossed in the United States, you're badgering random people on Bluesky under the pretense that you're somehow better than them because of your twisted "philosophy".
