Did you guys see this?

Trump is putting down American civil servants who make sure kids with disabilities get the education they deserve and who fund low-income school districts. The miserable MAGA officials who are destroying the Department of Education from the inside out are pathetic and deranged.

YouTube TV making me log in on a browser like I’m 100 years old to activate their little $20 “yup, we’re in a programming fight again” rebate is pretty galling. Just take it off the next bill you turds

No notes….nailed it 🎯
