So What Has the Department of Education Done for Us Lately?
The federal Department of Education, heralded by its supporters as a vital institution for ensuring equal access to quality education…
READ MORE ►I commented last week regarding President Trump’s visit to Washington last week.
Obviously, the legacy media wasn’t going to provide the most glowing coverage of his speech (For the record: They did not).
Oh sure, they had a presence there. Hanging on his every word (along with those speaking there as well). Waiting for that one moment they can glom onto so that they can rebroadcast it as a snippet during the evening news as proof-positive their gaslighting was justified.
Why they consistently fail to display the same level of journalistic integrity when it came to covering “the most popular president in history” ™…well, I’ll leave that up to you.
See the latest example below:
Allow me to go into some of what they didn’t report about, and what some of the rationale is behind it.

Dear Michigan legislature,
From the US Constitution:
The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof; but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations, except as to the Places of chusing Senators.
Nothing could be more clear.
It does not say “subject to the approval of the governor, or secretary of state”
I just wanted to dove-tail on an earlier post made by Jason regarding SB-653 to institute a museum tax on Southeastern Michigan.
Well, not ALL of Southeastern Michigan.
Even the backers of this heaping, steaming pile of legislative waste sponsored by the entire Michigan Senate democrat caucus realized that well is running dry, so they were going to focus on the easier marks in Oakland & Wayne Counties instead.
No, I’m not kidding.
They didn’t call them easy marks directly, per se (that would’ve been too obvious), but they did spell out their plan when they went before the Michigan Senate Committee last December to push for this little shakedown.
Check it out for yourself, it’s a short video cued up to the best part. OABTW, be sure to check it out at the 5:23 mark regarding the “Time sensitivity with the bill”
So, what insulting here?
Oh, the fact that not only did four “republicans”, namely Sen. Ken Horn, Sen. Curt VanderWall, Sen. Kim LaSata, Sen. Mark Huizenga, voted to move this bill out of committee, instead of letting it die a slow death, but they voted to have it take immediate effect!
Now, why would a “republican” from Frankenmuth vote to promote a tax hike in Oakland & Wayne Counties?
Better yet, where is that same zeal shown in the video to let Taxpayers know how that money is being spent?
Or better yet, to allow communities to opt out of this grift?
Stay tuned…
We have spoken of ..related things ..before.
This came to the in-box yesterday. Credit to Mr de Angeli for his continued pursuit of liberty by fighting the leviathan that grows best in the shadows of big government.
Destroying private property.
Assaulting vulnerable citizens.
Outright theft.
Government warning media out of the area.
And that’s just the short list.
Is this the latest round of BLM protests you haven’t heard about yet?
The answer may surprise you.
