The reality is that there are a lot of actual Americans that have “hostile attitudes” towards this American administration at the moment, and it is our fundamental right to have those attitudes, to question power. In fact, it is a necessity that we do so.

His constituents in Texas should be embarrassed and ashamed by their representative and for voting for him in the first place. It is really not that hard to be good to each other. Rep. Self needs to go.

Oh yes, let’s keep doing everything we possibly can to make it harder and less likely that we will have an educated electorate. I cannot bring myself to believe that Trump voters really wanted their government to make them dumber.

Don’t let the headlines or Trump fool you. A president cannot just sign away a department created by congress and signed into law. Only congress can write and pass a bill to eliminate the Department of Education, and I’d be willing to bet there are nowhere near enough votes to pass a bill.
