Flush with victory, public schools double-down on indoctrination

Next chapter

You might think these people would declare “Mission Accomplished”, but instead they’ve turned to nailing the final nails in our country’s heritage and future.

Illinois sets new, mandatory “progressive curriculum” standards.
