Why are you posting something that’s three weeks old?................

Probably because the search function on this site requires a special ring knock and hand shake to make it work, without which it is worthless.

This is important and not everyone can read all through posts on here every day.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Maybe because I missed the article but now suddenly we learn that the CEO of Pearson is “suddenly retiring at age 57 to spend time with his family”, as POTUS is bringing up corruption in all things.

Check out POTUS tweets from yesterday, your head will spin.

gee, why do you suppose this info is back in the news?????

What about that 0bama care software program that hardly worked? Didn’t Moochelle have something to do with awarding that contract to develop that software to a friend of hers?

Oh yeah!!! MILLIONS spent on a terrible program that a college major could have created in 2 hours for 10K.

The Humanitarian Hoax of Pearson Education: Killing America With Kindness - hoax 30

by Linda Goudsmit

The Humanitarian Hoax is a deliberate and deceitful tactic of presenting a destructive policy as altruistic. The humanitarian huckster presents himself as a compassionate advocate when in fact he is the disguised enemy.

Pearson plc, a public limited corporation, is a British multinational multi-billion dollar publishing powerhouse and the largest education company in the world. Pearson Publishing’s reported 2017 share in global revenues was $8.2 billion with a staggering 60% control of U.S. textbooks sales. It listed the Libyan Investment Authority as its largest financial contributor. Pearson is an anti-American, pro-globalism, antisemitic, pro-Muslim globalized education provider that is indoctrinating our American children.

Pearson is the premier global educational humanitarian huckster hawking its anti-American message of globalism to K-12 students and teachers in America. Its globalized curriculum comports to Obama’s pet Common Core Initiative Standards (CCIS). Globally, Common Core originated from the One World Education concept, a global goal orchestrated by the Connect All Schools program. Its origin is funded by the Qatar Foundation International (QFI) and supported by the United Nations Agenda 2030. This is how it works.

Obama appointed Vartan Gregorian, board member of the Qatari Foundation International (QFI), to the prestigious and influential President’s Commission on White House Fellowships. The Qatar Foundation International partnered with the Department of State and the U.S. Department of Education in 2011 to integrate classrooms in the U.S. and international schools through a program called Connect All Schools.

Obama’s dream of a globalized, internationalized pro-Muslim education was facilitated courtesy of the Qatari government, Qatar Foundation International, and the Libyan Investment Authority’s major Islam-promoting donors:

As I recall the Obozo’s wooky had a friend in Canada who owned and ran a computer tech business. The Obozo hired them to redo the WH computers and paid them a whopping $600 million. Other tech companies said they could have done it for less than $100,000. I’d guess the Obozo pocketed much of that $600 million for himself.

bammy enjoys the double standard. He can do anything at all, and get praised for it, while Trump doesn’t do anything, and is trashed.

Good read with pertinent history of past campaigns. Somebody on FR, please prove the below axiom (in general) is false:

Generalized pattern in modern history:
Dems get rich* after elected.
Reps get rich* before elected.

*Rich being defined as personal worth growing to more than amount reasonably expected in a number of years in old job,
say - like a professor or social worker.

Urgent need for investigation and full exposure to America's parents whose children have been indoctrinated in the schools though the control of Pearson in the textbook publishing business.

Book deals and $250,000 speaking fees are the way to legally funnel bribe money to democratic politicians. Hillary’s speaking fees sure have taken a hit since she lost the presidential race, haven’t they?

Here's the rumor on how the 'book deals' go with white liberal elites in DC (polite society of crooks)... People who want to pay a bribe buy a few hundred thousand boring books written by a ghost writer... a book no one wants to read... AND TO HIDE THAT FACT THAT THE BOOKS ARE NOT BEING BOUGHT IN STORES... for a 'small fee' the publisher agrees NOT TO PRINT THOSE BOOKS.

That way bookstores and second markets aren't filled to the gills with 'Obama's book' or "Clinton's books' etc. And no one asks questions... millions of un-bought books would draw attention... Monica Showalter needs to expand her search for truth...
