I can’t believe this was an issue in the first place

It was a measly 12 million dollars

The special olympics committee could raise that money in mere days if it wanted to

We missed you, dude. You were nowhere to be found after the Mueller report came out.

The same people who think a woman should abort her baby if it has Down syndrome are the same people who melted over this funding cut

Actually this is exactly what happened when this was first proposed. This is actually the third year that the DOE has proposed $0 for Special Olympics. The first time it was proposed was for FY18(President's budget proposed in early 17). In 2017 the Special Olympics used this proposal to fundraise and actually had $23 million more in fundraising from private entities. In other words, they were able raise more than they got from the government in that year.

They also had so much money in 2017 that they were able to add $18.7 million more to their total assets. That means that every cent that the DOE gave them was socked away instead of spent.

I have said since the beginning that this Russia stupidity is stupid and an absolute loser for anyone backing it. I have never said anything otherwise. And it was obvious to anyone watching.

And yet, Trump was forced by such a small issue to reverse his administration's course. We need a stronger strong man than this.

That money would have gone towards charter schools.

Anyone upset about that is saying it's more important for the challenged to feel better about themselves than it is to try to improve public education.
