Got my first "Violating an Executive Order" and "I'll make sure you lose federal funding" parent threat today for teaching "DEI" books in our upcoming "Liberty and Justice" themed unit. Even in "Blue" Massachusetts we're dealing with this. Anyway, don't obey in advance, and don't obey later.

Yo, #techbros, isn't it AWESOME that your crush #ElonMusk is taking over the guv'mint? So cool, right? Now we can really straighten things out, right? Y'know, at the expense of stupid democratic controls and balance of power bs. So cool!
