Citing concerns about DEI, the U.S. Department of Education has halted funding for programs that support students with combined hearing and vision loss in eight states.

“How low can you go?” one advocate asked. “How can you do this to children?”

@span ProPublica, juuuuust when you thought they couldn't be more venal.

They dig a hole, so they can lower the bar FURTHER.

And they wonder why they're called Nazis when they do Nazi things.

How low can you go?

Well, much deeper into the eugenics hole would be my estimation as the USA seems to be going all out for a rerun of 1930s Nazi Germany.

They're well past functioning democracy.

@span ProPublica Reading this headline and blurb caused me physical pain.

Empathy is not a sickness.
People should care about the safety and well-being of others.

I really think that a lot of parents screwed the pooch.
The number of truly horrible people on the planet right now is entirely unacceptable.

@span ProPublica These people are in fact deplorable. As someone with a disabled spouse this just makes me want to lock myself in a room with these SOB's.

It shouldn't be too long until a Fox mouthpiece suggests involuntary lethal injections.

How did the United States fall this low?

@span ProPublica At a certain point this becomes less so called "DEI" and more just straight up eugenics from the right.

The party which is protecting a child abuser is now hurting children by taking away services they need.

Can't say I'm surprised.

@span ProPublica “How can you do this to children?” It's easy when the goal of the nazi thugocracy is to only have perfect, blond haired, blue eyed people in American society.
