It’s Wednesday.

President Projectionist has tweeted 5 times so far for Wednesday.

In his first tweet President Projectionist-Extortionist proves he is both a projectionist and extortionist.

Dems think it would be bad for them politically if U.S. schools open before the November Election…

May cut off funding if not open!

He offers another hot take regarding schools opening up in the fall…

As near as I can tell, the CDC Guidelines to prepare children, staff, and teachers to return to the classroom in the “fall,” have been published since May 29th, 2020, however the date on the Interim Guidance for Administrators of U.S. K-12 Schools and Childcare Programs was updated April 10th, 2020. There is also another link to Considerations for Schools that was last updated on May 19th, 2020.

The bottom line of their guidance to safely allow children, staff, and teachers to return to work is wearing face coverings for all present, stay home if you are high-risk or if you become ill, wash hands, and social distance. At all three links provided, they also push for more testing.

CNN reports that “Most funding for America’s schools comes from the state and local level — over 90%, according to Education Secretary Betsy DeVos, but schools do get some targeted funding from the Department of Education. That federal funding often affects the nation’s most vulnerable students.”

Spokesman for the Democrats on the House Appropriations Committee, Evan Holder, said in response to President Bully’s threat to cut funding, “Congress provides federal education funding to support some of the most vulnerable young people in our country. The President has no authority to cut off funding for these students, and threatening to do so to prop up his flailing campaign is offensive.”

Speaking of schools, it was reported this morning that Harvard and M.I.T. have sued the Trump Administration over the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement announcing on Monday new policy changes to foreign students studying in America.
