‘Efficiency’ Co-Chair Ramaswamy Hints Department Of Education Will Be ‘Deleted Outright’ By Trump

Failed venture capital hack and serial liar Vivkek Ramaswamy said Sunday that once Donald Trump is again in the White House, he will eliminate the U.S. Department of Education “outright” as part of a plan to slash federal spending, even when it helps Americans.

Ramaswamy, the co-chair of the Trump-created Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) with Twitter CEO Elon Musk, made that remark to Fox host Maria Bartitomo.

“Elon and I aren’t in this for the credit,” Ramaswamy explained. “But I think we’re gonna build the consensus to make the kind of deep cuts that haven’t been made for most of our history.”

“President Trump has talked about the Department of Education,” Bartiromo noted. “For example, are you gonna be closing down departments?”

With a smile, Ramaswamy replied, “We expect mass would be deleted outright. We expect mass reductions in force in areas of the federal government that are bloated. We expect massive cuts among federal contractors and others who are overbilling the federal government, So yes, we expect all of the above and I think people will be surprised by, I think, how quickly we’re able to move with some of those changes given the legal backdrop.”

He added, “So this is a historic opportunity We’re not actually going to squander this, but I think part of the key is to move quickly to move effectively. I think that mass deregulation that I talked about earlier that gives us the industrial logic to then make cuts to that bureaucracy and moving quickly is our objective.”

While we’re at it, why not sell the White House and most of the monuments in the nation’s capital to the highest bidder, too? Hey, maybe we could even rename them for whoever forks over the most cash.

Just imagine it: The Walmart/Washington Monument. Or what about the Viagra Pentagon, where our Defense Department is hard 24/7 for any foe that might want to challenge America? Not including Russia, of course, because they already control Trump completely.

With people like Ramaswamy, Musk, and Trump running things, we truly are fucked. Make sure your passport is current and valid, because you may need it to escape the coming shithole USA sooner rather than later.

Enraged Trump Supporter Claims Schools Are Putting ‘Litter Boxes In The Bathrooms’

According to a supporter of failed former president Donald Trump, children are now “terrified” of going to school because there are “litter boxes in the bathrooms.

Before a Trump campaign rally in Flint, Michigan, Titus Smith of Right Side Broadcasting Network spoke with a woman who said she will vote for Trump so he can be “the voice for our children.”

“You can’t even protect them at school,” the woman claimed. “These kids are terrified.”

“They have put into litter boxes in the bathrooms and everything else, instead of teaching our kids,” she added. “It’s scary what’s happening.”

The Trump acolyte also said her kids are afraid to vote for Trump “because they’re so afraid of what people are going to think of them.”

“They are afraid of politics, completely afraid, because they don’t want to upset anybody,” she continued. “They want to vilify you and make you feel if you say something, what you believe to be true, what you know to be true, that you are the problem.”

The lie about litter boxes in schools began making the rounds among right-wing politicians who asserted that schools were installing litter boxes to accommodate students who identify as cats instead of human beings.

But as Harvard University research director Joan Donovan notes, “What’s most provocative about this hoax is how it turns on two key wedge issues for conservatives: educational accommodations and gender nonconformity.”

In other words, it’s bullshit created to suggest there’s a problem that doesn’t even exist. Then again, the GOP has become the party of conspiracy theories and lies, so it fits right into their bizarre strategy for getting the votes of gullible simpletons.

Washed-Up Actor Kirk Cameron: Public Schools Turn Kids Into ‘Atheists, Drag Queens, And Strippers’

You probably remember washed-up actor and right-wing blowhard Kirk Cameron from the TV series “Growing Pains,” which was the last time he had a steady gig.

Since leaving television, Cameron has become an evangelist, starred in a string of pathetic B-movies, and is also a fanatical advocate for home-schooling.

Why should parents teach their children from home? According to Cameron, it’s because letting them attend public schools will result in them becoming “atheists, drag queens, and strippers.

Cameron made that ludicrous assertion to podcaster Elizabeth Johnston, telling her that kids should never be exposed to curriculum and teachers who aren’t far-right extremists and Christian wackjobs like him.

“If we outsource our parenting because it’s easier or we believe the lie that we’re not qualified experts to educate our kids so we have to subcontract our parenting and discipleship out to the government, we’re gonna have little kids that come back as little Marxists, little statists, little atheists, drag queens, strippers, drug dealers, and you name it.”

Wow! That’s one hell of a list, isn’t it? Seeing as how I’m a proud graduate of public schools, I was shocked to learn that I’m also a communist who dresses in women’s clothes, earns extra cash on the side by stripping, and also finds time in my busy day to sell drugs. All of this so I can support my family and wreak mayhem on my otherwise peaceful neighborhood in the hope of bringing honor to Lucifer.

Is it any wonder that Kirk can’t get a decent gig in Hollywood? He probably couldn’t get a job at McDonald’s even if a blood relative was the manager.

Fortunately, Cameron’s ridiculous bullshit rant was countered with some heavy internet karma.


Here’s a suggestion for Kirk Cameron: You teach your kids the way you want and stay the hell out of my business. Deal?

VIRAL VIDEO: Woman Flips Off Ranting Far-Right Oklahoma School Superintendent

An Oklahoma woman has gone viral thanks to her reaction at a school board meeting as the state’s education superintendent spoke angrily about “woke” policies and spewed anti-trans hatred.

According to HuffPost, Oklahoma School Superintendent Ryan Walters is about as far to the right as one can get politically short of changing his name to Atilla the Hun, and his rant was so over the top that one person in the audience couldn’t contain her disgust.

Walters tried to get in all the right-wing trigger words as he slammed a “radical, woke, activist judge” who he said is “pressuring” school districts to change birth certificates of trans students to match their gender identity.

“We see a lot of this coming from the Biden administration trying to force dictates onto our states and onto our individual schools,” Walters said.

As she listened to Walters, the woman shook her head and was visibly disgusted by what he was spewing. Finally, she could no longer contain her anger and flipped off the superintendent in clear view of the camera.

Social media users shared their delight with the woman’s reaction and disgust for Walters .

Tuberville Gets Ripped A New One For Saying ‘Inner City’ Teachers May Not Be Able To ‘Read And Write’

Alabama Republican Sen. Tommy Tuberville has long been known as a bigoted and idiotic piece of human waste, but comments he made during an appearance on Donald Trump Jr’s “Triggered” podcast are drawing almost universal criticism across the political spectrum.

During a discussion of education, Tuberville remarked, “The Covid really brought it out how bad our schools are and how bad our teachers are, in the inner city. Most of them in the inner city, I don’t know how they got degrees.”

He then added:

“I don’t know whether they can read and write. And they want a raise. They want less time to work, less time in school. It’s just, we’ve ruined work ethic in this country. We don’t work at it anymore. We push an easy life.”

Tuberville also let loose with this morsel of profound personal ignorance:

“If you can’t read and if you can’t write, you can’t live in a country like this and not have somebody help you make it through life, which is what a lot of this government wants.”

Keep in mind that before the state of Alabama elected him to the Senate, Tuberville was a college football coach. It’s safe to say he probably had some players who couldn’t read or write and needed help, too, but that’s OK because they had the athletic ability he needed to exploit in order to justify his salary, which was in the millions.

Oh, and it’s also instructive to know the following about the state of Alabama: It’s ranked 46th among the 50 states when it comes to its educational system. Kind of makes you wonder if more than a few of Tuberville’s constituents are also deficient when it comes to reading and writing skills.

One good thing did come from Tuberville’s bigoted remarks: The social media whupping he took.
