Well done Donnie, just a little addition: Revoke all federal funding from any university that hasn’t fired every Marxist, communist, or DEI official (whether they currently work for them or otherwise).

This is going to last longer than 4 hours isn't it?


I might need a doctor.

The media (and left politicos) keep touting how “college educated” White women and black women were the largest groups for Harris without actually following the logic out and explaining exactly why that’s the issue we are in in this country. Those “educated” women groups are growing just in pure volume of useless degrees and it’s not a good thing.

Women and especially black women are getting accepted to and going to colleges in record numbers while men in general are getting kicked down the educational and societal ladder.

Women are going to college that is increasingly more expensive but becoming degree mills and sending these people out into the workforce with debt and a degree that isn’t even needed for a job that doesn’t pay enough to make the debt worth it.

By holding the degree, women expect to enter the workforce and delay marriage and kids and having a home due to the debt, and also there’s a mismatch because they also expect a college educated husband so now there’s also a mismatch in relationships.

It’s all connected and it’s obvious it’s not good for society emotional well being, financial well being, or for our country to grow, prosper and thrive.

It’s a lot to unpack and a lot to fix, but we have to.

Trump is seeing the light and has transformed mightily from his first term in which he left Obama appointments in place who undermined him at every opportunity.

I fear he only has 4 years and so much to fix.
It’s so awesome that he even wants to fix these things though. We need this man so badly.

As someone who works in higher ed, I fricking love this.


The accreditation system is beyond broken. Checking their stupid boxes is probably 30% of my job at this point, and it isn’t doing shite to improve the quality of education. It’s actively detracting from the time I can devote to my students and I’m fricking sick of it.

It’s wasting time, it’s wasting resources, it’s increasing tuition cost, and it’s giving a handful of petty bureaucrats an unbelievable amount of power to drive education outcomes in the direction they personally desire. I went to my first accreditation conference this summer and the glee that these people get over making rules and forcing them onto others was sickening.


Needless to say, this post has me beyond hyped

Reminds me of when I went to work, "for the Government", (as a Contractor). Had to have "A" degree.

Didn't matter, just "A" degree.

Thinking back on how foolish that seems now.

This is not the way.

Get the Federal government COMPLETELY out of education! The first time the Democrats get control again they will use this to jam LGTBQ+ bullshite down our throat even more.

If the Feds have any funds to spend on universities make it a law to distribute to the States proportionally by population. But, the Feds shouldn't have any money for education anyway.

We still need the universities for research and to get geniuses into our country. Previously we had the finest universities in the world, but we still need them to some extent.

Anyone see the anti-Veteran’s Day protest at Columbia University today.

Start with them.

Nope. If he does the things he says he will do, no Democrat stands a chance if JD/Vivek runs on continuing to MAGA.

Outside of contracts for research (mainly for defense), and the G.I. Bill, I agree.

I can’t imagine Kamala laying out a comprehensive plan like this about anything, yet Trump already has comprehensive plans for many issues already written out.

I'm fine with spending $ for that. But outside of the G.I. Bill, there is no need for FedGov $ in universities.

How many of them have ended up being CCP agents?

Are you sure that this video is legitimate?

I’ve seen several with the same setup covering different topics.
