Current Events > Trump promises to end indoctrination in K-12 by indoctrinating kids in K-12.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Policy, containing recommendations and a plan for: eliminating Federal funding or support for illegal and discriminatory treatment and indoctrination in K-12 schools

The purpose of the 1776 Commission is to promote patriotic education and advance the purposes stated in section 1 of Executive Order 13958, as well as to advise and promote the work of the White House Task Force on Celebrating Americas 250th Birthday (Task Force 250) and the United States Semiquincentennial Commission in their efforts to provide a grand celebration worthy of the momentous occasion of the 250th anniversary of American Independence on July 4, 2026.

Why do kids need to be taught how great America is? Wouldn't they come to that conclusion on their own if it's as great as Trump and Musk insist?

I really, REALLY hope a judge can strike this down...also what happened to States rights now eh?

Also its sadistic to think that destroying the nation is a great way to celebrate its 250th anniversary of the nation.

Guess Ill be home schooling

Another example for the pile of "problems republicans cause that they're claiming to fix".

Remember, though, that he has NO IDEA what's in Project 2025

There's only one good way to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the US, and Trump really wouldn't like it.

No free speech AND "communist"-esque propaganda.

Maybe you can get the teacher's schedule and select periods. Public school sucks but being home is not an improvement when you are a kid. Some teachers can tell you what your child likes so let her attend classes that she likes if any.

yeah this is why i hate anyone who voted for trump
maybe you make my life a little harder by making things more expensive
but you're fucking up things for my kid and other people of my kid's generation and I really can't stand that.

any nation that has to teach the youth how great it is

is not a great nation

To be fair though open socialization probably isn't going to be allowed in public schools much longer either.

What country before ever existed a century and half without a rebellion? And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure.

Good bye Black History.
Also good-bye Juneteenth and Kwanzaa.

True.

Slowly turning the US into every country he supposedly hates.

Sounds like fascism.

"Why was the Civil War fought?"
"Slavery"
"Nice try, it was about states rights!"

They already do that in red states though I bet

So, we're going back to kindergarteners coloring pictures of Pilgrims and "Indians" gleefully celebrating the first Thanksgiving?

It's so infuriating. States rights to do what, but also the confederacy stripped that right from the states. The confederacy constitution forced all its members to be slave states, but teaching that fact will probably be labeled as too woke.

Patriotic education is whitewashed education

My first exposure to Prager U was an explanation about how the Civil War was exclusively a war about defeating slavery, and they explain that the "state right" being fought over was the state's right to have slaves.

Imagine my shock when I find out Prager U is actually part of a conservative effort to undermine traditional education in the US -_-

Prager is institutionalized sophistry

Not going ham on the confederate states was a mistake.
