Michael Scheuer writes<\/a>:<\/p>\n

One of the more daunting problems Trump would face in implementing a comprehensive America First orientation in the national government is the Department of Education. Under both Democratic and Republican presidents, the leaders and personnel of that department have, for more than thirty years, developed and provided anti-American curricula to the nation\u2019s schools and have used their control of an enormous budget to force their acceptance and implementation. In particular, their target has been the alienation of young Americans from their own republic\u2019s history, which, with a common language, a common faith, and allegiance to the rule of equality before the law are all Americans have ever had to hold themselves and their Union together. The Democrats and the media already have destroyed the first three unifying commonalities, and so the republic\u2019s history is the final target in their quest to divide and conquer America\u2019s diverse regions and populations, and then establish one-party, authoritarian rule in the United States. In this task, the Department of Education has the leading role.<\/p>\n

The product being delivered by the Department of Education is just what the authoritarians want, but it cannot for a moment be deemed a truthful, fair-minded education in America\u2019s history. The Department\u2019s product is more accurately termed the deliberate distorting of US. history, which is applied in an indoctrination of America\u2019s students that leaves them all but ignorant of U.S. history. It also leaves them deeply infused with a near-fanatic belief that the United States engages in evil whenever it puts America\u2019s interests first and manifests a durable preference for the republic\u2019s survival over extravagant and always wasted and war-causing funding for the welfare, Westernizing, and democratizing of poor, suffering, oppressed, diseased, or otherwise unfortunate foreigners \u2013 especially, as the saying goes, those \u201cof color, which has come to mean anyone who is not English-speaking and white. At home it means, legal, financial, political, and media preference for any group \u2013 no matter how reprehensible, felonious, slothful, or deviant \u2014 that reliably votes for the Democrats.<\/p>\n

In addition, the Department\u2019s prescribed indoctrination demands the mandatory awarding of empathy, sympathy, and limited liability to foreign nations, organizations, and individuals that deliberately attack America, as in U.S. soldiers and Marines not being allowed to fire on the enemy before being fired on; the lack of retribution for Saudi Arabia\u2019s ongoing responsibility for generating the Islamists\u2019 war against the United States; official U.S. silence over Israel\u2019s intentional aerial attack that wrecked the U.S. navy\u2019s ship Liberty and killed or wounded many of its crew; and bipartisan acquiescence in the undeclared but vicious war the Mexican government is waging against the U.S. economy and America\u2019s sovereignty, independence, language, and social cohesion.<\/p>\n

For several generations of American students \u2013 from which have come most teachers at all levels of U.S. education \u2013 the idea of \u201cAmerica First\u201d has been directly and intentionally defined by the Department of Education as American selfishness, racism, isolationism, anti-Semitism, xenophobia, and a mean-spirited lack of sensitivity to always-worthy foreigners. While examples of this Department of Education-inculcated, anti-America mindset are legion, several recent ones are worth noting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
