That hand writing was on the wall after the Trump court legalized vouchers.  Had Roe not been overturned, that would have received all the hype from the media. This was a more consequential decision than the repeal of Roe.
 

Woke is gonna die in K-12 in half the states.

I hope, but unfortunately there are a lot of private schools that also follow a woke agenda.  I think we can thank the Universities and their departments of Education for that.

Interesting that you should say this.  The most fascinating book that I've read in years (not finished yet, but can't put it down) is:

 

Rating America's Presidents: An America-First Look at Who Is Best, Who Is Overrated, and Who Was An Absolute Disaster

 

https://www.amazon.com/Rating-Americas-Presidents-America-First-Overrated/dp/1642935352/ref=sr_1_3?crid=Y9247K1BOUHT&keywords=rating+american+presidents&qid=1674681810&s=books&sprefix=rating+america%2Cstripbooks%2C123&sr=1-3

 

This is far different from other books of its topic, and I've learned so much that I'm tempted to read it through a second time to catch anything that I missed.

The teachers’ unions have long-since deviated from the role advocating for teachers’ best interests, to protecting teachers from responsibility from the results of their left-wing ideology.

 

Until unions return to their origin purpose of representing their members and depart the arena of policy advocacy, I can not, in good conscience, support union their continued existence.
