According to a recent Speech First report, the nation’s leading medical schools are controlled by Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion fanatics, who inflict beliefs such as “weight inclusivity,” racial justice, and gender ideology on their staff and students through policies, forced statements, and curricular mandates.

A national “school choice” program in the “Big, Beautiful Bill” was signed into law on Independence Day by President Donald Trump, drawing both applause and concerns from conservatives. Language protecting religious liberty and seeking to restrain government control of private schools was stripped from the legislation before passage. Supporters argued that the program, even though […]

“Man is an unoriginal animal,” says Hercule Poirot in Agatha Christie’s “Cards on the Table.” This human tendency to keep doing essentially the same thing may be one reason why we still use government laws and regulations to deal with unfair discrimination regardless of the evidence that they are better at creating rather than eliminating […]

Overwrought allegations about “massive teacher layoffs,” the elimination of the DOE, and school choice abound.

Government intrusion in education must be reined in.

When the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) was created in 1917, maybe some honest people believed that government-run industries work better than free-market industries. In the USSR, all industries were run by government bureaucrats, and many university-trained experts both inside and outside of the USSR promised superior performance of these industries. The results were […]

Too many government-run schools are getting bad Marx.

As long as the Prussian education system has special privileges, it can continue to distort the teaching of history and promote racism.

The U.S. Department of Education is on the ropes, and it should be ended, not mended.

American children scored poorly, yet again, on the latest nationwide test; school choice is a way to right our sinking ship.
