Public schools aren’t “severely underfunded.” NYC spends about $36,000 per student, highest among large districts, while the national average is roughly $17,600. Spending has risen sharply for years, yet proficiency rates and NAEP scores have stayed flat or declined in many places.
A large and growing share of the money now goes to edtech tools, devices, and digital platforms that were rushed in during COVID and often continue despite limited evidence they improve learning. Taxpayers are paying for a lot of this added layer on top of already high spending.

Britain was required by Article 7 of the 1783 Treaty of Paris to withdraw “with all convenient speed” from all posts, places, and harbors in the United States. They instead kept occupying the western forts on U.S. soil until 1796. A 29-year pause in active combat doesn’t erase that ongoing treaty violation or the unresolved grievances that carried straight into 1812

If this form of philanthropy takes off, it could be a serious threat to the broader world of institutional giving, as it creates a vector to give back directly rather than funneling it through a 501(c)(3) with all of the tradeoffs therein.

The key difference is that after the 1783 Treaty of Paris, British military actions against America never actually stopped. They kept troops in the western forts and kept impressing American sailors right up until the War of 1812. That’s why it’s reasonable to see the Revolution and 1812 as one long connected struggle for full independence.
With WWI and WWII it’s different. There was a real stop. The armistice in 1918, formal treaty, mass demobilization, and the Allied occupation forces eventually left German territory by 1930. The grievances festered and caused the next war, but it wasn’t the same as the other side maintaining active military pressure with no clean break the whole time.

This American experiment cannot survive if one class swears an oath to defend the Constitution while another seeks power by demanding it be dismantled.

Communism must be stopped.

@ReboAndZooty @McelrathBlake @alexlindsay @jabba_trump @ElectionBabe The Revolution ended in 1783 with the Treaty of Paris, but Britain didn’t leave US forts or stop impressing sailors. Jay’s Treaty (1794) forced Britain out of the forts but didn’t end impressment. This led to the War of 1812 to finally win full independence. Connected! 🇺🇸

Hello Mr. Clinton,

I'm not going to extend to you the courtesy that your paragraph about lawfare extends to Trump supporters. Because I've studied enough of you, to know what you are truly about.

You were President during the post-Cold War sugar high. I have it thoroughly documented that you and your administration met with George Soros frequently, and in short term changed your policy positions to fit whatever George Soros proposed.

Which was: continuous military intervention all over the world. Starting with the bombing of Yugoslavia. You were the original neoconservative. Madeline Albright used "open society" phrasing in communicating your foreign policy documents. You are a part of the long string of failures of nation-building in the name of democracy, the Western interventions that resulted in millions of mass migrants overwhelming our borders, artificial famines, and us building the infrastructure that enabled China to take over the Africa continent and extract African resources for themselves.

But. Most of all. Those of us -- and there are a good deal many of us -- who have been ruined by lawfare. @GenFlynn sacrificed everything. @JeffClarkUS has had his life ruined and is still rebuilding. At the end of the day, only one President has been the subject of repeated assassination attempts and eighty-plus indictments - and it's President Trump. Not anyone in your orbit.

Seriously, Bill. What do you think when you see that a Democrat gets indicted by a grand jury, and a judge inevitably overturns that indictment on grounds that nobody has heard of? "Oh wow the judges are so wise and saw right through a jury of peers! And that wisdom coincidentally happens to always fall on party lines!" Give me a break.

Every single one of us on the right-wing side knows that when your side regains power, your side will turn the full might of lawfare on us. You will cheer on mass incarcerations. You openly brag about that. You even toe the line of threatening to jail current military members if they don't refuse orders from Pete Hegseth.

You are the evil one here. You cheer on the burning of our cities. You cheer on lawfare of Republicans. You never apologized for the millions of lives disrupted all over the world. You never say a word about the billions or even trillions of dollars that have been robbed by your friends through corrupt NGOs.

The fact that none of you are in jail, proves that we are the powerless ones here. You're just afraid that someone sees you for you who are, and you secretly know that image is ugly.

@KevinDwyer47972 @Narddog4747 Dude you are angry wow. I have ideas, but you’re the one who made a tweet about it. I asked about your ideas of solutions. I hope you’re able to calm down a little, we can’t have the anger if we want to fix the issues. Your anger gets us no where.

[Trey Keys @trey3keys]

@KevinDwyer47972 @Narddog4747 You could literally be talking about anything. I just asked what you thought the solutions might be. You seemed like you had an idea, but now it just seems like you’re rage baiting.

@cronyecologism @Tradermayne Here’s a tip, read the shit you’re telling other people to read😂

[Trey Keys @trey3keys]

Still dodging the actual arguments with personal jabs and subscription jokes. The point was simple. The American founding was built on individual natural rights (life, liberty, property), limited government, and protection from tyranny. The DIRECT philosophical opposite of communism’s core tenets (abolition of private property, class warfare, collective/state control of production).
Marx and Engels didn’t see the U.S. as some inspirational model to copy for Europe. They explicitly called the American Revolution a bourgeois revolution. A necessary but incomplete stage they wanted to transcend with proletarian revolution. They viewed America as the most advanced expression of capitalism, not something to emulate.
You called me an idiot for saying the founding opposed communist ideas. Now you’re refusing to engage with the history or the texts. That’s fine. Just don’t pretend the personal attacks and “pay me $8” bit are a substitute for an actual rebuttal.
Ideas are still welcome if you ever want to bring any

[Trey Keys @trey3keys]

@KevinDwyer47972 @Narddog4747 You didn’t give me an answer😂

[Trey Keys @trey3keys]

@cronyecologism @Tradermayne Okay. Now can you respond to my tweet calling out your fallacies ?

[Trey Keys @trey3keys]

@KevinDwyer47972 @Narddog4747 Haha what? It was a question, not sure why you decided to come at me like that.

[Trey Keys @trey3keys]

@cronyecologism @Tradermayne You are just a sad person man.

[Trey Keys @trey3keys]

@KevinDwyer47972 @Narddog4747 what are these solutions

[Spencer Pratt @spencerpratt]

The communist doesn’t think to increase the quality of the grid. The communist demands that you decrease the quality of your life.

They make you ration the things that every other American gets to enjoy. Every single time.
