Dumb Things Dems Said in Sex Ed Floor Debate
By Laurie Higgins   |   06.01.21

By Alex Newman   |   05.10.21
Perhaps nothing has done more to rouse Americans from their slumber on government education than the so-called Common Core standards, which were quietly imposed on the nation by the leftist Obama administration using tax-funded “bribe” money and arm-twisting.
