My take “The folks who brought us the fraudulent Trump University…now threaten to dismantle a higher education ecosystem that is still (for now) the envy of the rest of the world. We must not be neutral about this.” via @NYTimes nytimes.com/2024/11/12/us/tr…

A huge wall of dust, a storm known as a haboob swept across central California, creating dangerous travel conditions and leaving thousands of people without power.

He’s also a Princeton & Harvard grad and a think tanker, briefly. He’s got a pedigree and a record that suits him to the role, even though he’s also on tv. Given the less desirable alternatives floating around, this is hard to object to.

Trump's plan to dismantle the U.S. indoctrination system (college) by seizing funds from schools that refuse to comply with his accreditation system. 1. "Our secret weapon will be the college accreditation system." 2. "Fire the radical left accreditors that have allowed our colleges to become dominated by Marxist maniacs and lunatics." 3. "We will then accept applications for new accreditors who will impose real standards on colleges once again." "These standards will include defending the American tradition and Western civilization, protecting free speech, and eliminating wasteful administrative positions that drive up costs." 4. "Remove all Marxist diversity, equity, and inclusion bureaucrats, offering options for accelerated at low-cost degrees, providing meaningful job placement and career services, and implementing college entrance and exit exams to prove that students are actually learning and getting their money's worth." 5. "Direct the Department of Justice to pursue federal civil rights cases against schools that continue to engage in racial discrimination." 6. "Schools that persist in explicit unlawful discrimination under the guise of equity will not only have their endowments taxed, but through budget reconciliation, I will advance a measure to have them fined up to the entire amount of their endowment." 7. "The seized funds will then be used as restitution for victims of these illegal and unjust policies."
