It noted that the #DOJ could sue for breach of contract if it found federal funds were spent while violating *#CivilRights* laws.
The fed govt accounts for ~8% of local #school #funding, but amounts vary. In MS about 23% of school funding comes from federal sources, while NY receives just 7%, acc/to the Pew Research Center.
[#TitleI schools receive additional funding see #Project2025’s plan to eliminate the funding entirely https://www.americanprogress.org/article/project-2025s-elimination-of-title-i-funding-would-hurt-students-and-decimate-teaching-positions-in-local-schools/]

In a memo sent to top #PublicEducation ofcls across the country, the #Education Dept said that #funding for schools w/high percentages of #LowIncome #students, known as #TitleI funding, was at risk pending compliance w/the #Trump admin’s directive.
The memo included a *certification* letter that state & local #school ofcls must sign & return within 10 days, even as the admin has struggled to define which programs would violate its *interpretation* of #CivilRights laws.
#Trump Admin Threatens to Withhold #Funds From #PublicSchools
State #education officials will be required to verify that they have eliminated all programs that promote #diversity, #equity & #inclusion [#DEI] that the administration deems *unlawful* [uncomfortable for #FarRight #bigots] according to a new memo.

“The govt's arguments are not persuasive, & it is not an especially close question…. The govt's unrelenting reliance on deference to #military judgment is unjustified in the absence of any evidence supporting 'the military's' new judgment reflected in the [#transgender] Military Ban—in its equally considered & unquestionable judgment, that very same military had only the week before permitted active-duty plaintiffs (& some thousands of others) to serve openly.
United States Court of Appeals for DC ordered the #Pentagon not to take action against any #transgender servicemembers while a judge's order blocking #Trump / #Hegseth's ban is appealed.
“The purpose of this administrative stay is to give the court sufficient opportunity to consider the emergency motion for stay pending appeal”

"#AntiVaxx Mom Whose Daughter Died From #Measles Says Disease 'Wasn't That Bad'"
This is the weight of prideful #ignorance
People for whom the death of their child is not as painful as saying "I was wrong" or "I didn't know" or "I'm sorry"
It is weighing on society as well
This will be the death of us

#americans are fucking stupid
they treat #voting as a joke
americans are removed from the consequences of living under #autocracy and #fascism, unlike other places that understand the stakes
#alienated and #entitled on a topic that will *personally* harm them, no need for glorious appeals to #society and #responsibility
they need to learn to fucking #vote
or not vote for their own impoverishment and rights removal under #bigotry and #plutocracy
they will learn
the hard way
fucking morons
"The erasure of Indigenous, Black, Hispanic, and female veterans from our military history is an attempt to elevate white men as the sole actors in our history. It is also an attempt to erase a vision of a nation in which Americans of all backgrounds come together to work—and fight—for the common good."
- Heather Cox Richardson

“Plaintiffs face a violation of their constitutional rights, which constitutes irreparable harm. Indeed, the cruel irony is that thousands of #transgender servicemembers have sacrificed — some risking their lives — to ensure for others the very #EqualProtection rights the #Military Ban seeks to deny them,” Reyes wrote, adding that “avoiding constitutional violations is always in the #PublicInterest.”

Reyes…wrote that such pronouncements that #transgender people are not honorable, truthful or disciplined are “pure conjecture.” The EO & #DOD policy “provide nothing to support Defendants’ view that transgender #military service is inconsistent with #military readiness,” she wrote.
Judge blocks #Trump’s order banning #transgender troops from #military service, ruling that the plan violated the #Constitution’s #EqualProtection clause.

More #history removed from #US Govt websites
This time, the famous #NavajoCodeTalkers
The #Dine created a code from their language #DineBizaad. Throughout the Pacific Theatre of #WWII they were crucial for communications: #ImperialJapan had no way to understand what they were saying
And now the #bigotry in charge has blotted their contributions
Their webpages are now 404, and the URL renamed with "#DEI"

What is the difference between honest ignorance (which we all have on any number of topics, and if we're humble, we learn) and prideful ignorance ("I know everything already, shut up")?

He came to the #Wisconsin state legislature to speak against #genderAffirmingCare. Instead, after listening to testimony, he apologized and said he learned a lot

The Congressional #Hispanic Caucus [#CHC] released a statement hitting back at the #Republicans attack on its chairperson.
“This #xenophobic rhetoric from #Trump Republicans proves that you can follow the #law, get your papers, become a #citizen, get elected to #Congress — swear multiple #oaths to protect & defend the #Constitution — & all you will ever be to Trump Republicans: an ‘illegal immigrant,’” the group wrote in a post.

#Espaillat has been a US citizen for >40 years & is the first formerly undocumented immigrant to serve in #Congress. When his family first immigrated to the US from the #DominicanRepublic roughly 60 years ago, they briefly overstayed their tourist visa but obtained green cards within the year, acc/to HuffPost. [that’s the extent of his former 50 years ago “undocumented” status]

#Republicans Hurl Racist Insult at Democratic #Hispanic Caucus Chair
The #GOP isn’t even pretending not to be #racist now.
The National Republican Congressional Committee published an atrocious social media post calling Hispanic Caucus Chair Adriano #Espaillat an “illegal immigrant,” after the NY Democrat gave a Spanish-language rebuttal to #Trump’s address to #Congress.
