NASA Ordered To Purge Women Leaders From Websites: We really shouldn’t be surprised, but NASA has been ORDERED to purge mention of women in leadership from it’s websites. No doubt to be followed by a purge of actual women except for a token or two and one in particular. I’ll get to that. It seems…

Without a Department of Education, your child’s IEP is worthless.

An eloquent exploration of “don’t obey in advance.”

Last night Elon Musk moved to kill the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. His team is now inside, and he posted “CFPB RIP 🪦” on X. This agency has saved Americans billions. DOGE isn’t about cutting waste—it’s about dismantling the government so Musk and his billionaire friends can take control.
