How much worse will schools get with the dismantling of the Dept. of Education? A relative works at a red state middle school that has a reading proficiency level of just 34%. Math is only 39%. This red state is not likely to funnel much money into schools.

Omg. There's a new horror movie with Geoffrey Rush and John Lithgow about a psychopath who terrorizes his fellow nursing home residents with a sinister doll puppet. Why do that? Nursing homes are terrifying enough on their own.

@CNN is showing its red side by discussing possible DOGE education cuts by interviewing Andrew Hayes of the Lakeside School District, an extremely far right area. Hayes wants local control of education money. The moderate guest was largely ignored, while Hayes got the last word.
