The animus... Florida may be only a steppingstone for DeSantis, but for millions of educators, parents and students, this is our forever home. He's a native Floridian. Is he supposed to move when he's out of office?

Despite PragerU’s approval as an educational vendor in Florida, the organization is not accredited and does not offer degrees.

Well, it should be. In fact, it should be the benchmark for any AMERCIAN accreditation and degree-giving. But we all know that privilege is for mostly reserved for the Leftist, DEI garbage known as higher education these days.

Ya know, when you look into things, on a purely State level...
this guy is something.
Andrew Spar moves on to state teachers union after 15 years in Volusia County

He's probably getting hammered from all around...behind the scenes.

I seldom listen to Prager’s radio show. Now that I lost Dan Bongino he’s about it locally.

Problem: Does anyone else agree with me that Prager is obsessed with gender change and related topics? I vowed to turn off the show if his talk drifted again to that topic-—and it happened every single day.

Like his strong defense of the death penalty and his disdain for the Leftists ruining America, though.

Ummmmm...I hate to mention this...you didn't
turn it off after the first time when it happened (no if)
and then you continued to listen...
every single day.

Have I got that right?

No. I took a few seconds to see what Prager was talking about (after Bongino the competing super station has insipid wishy washy semi leftists usually blabbing about local festivals and businesses).

I didn’t stay on it as soon as I heard the gender talk (usually 10 seconds). Didn’t finish the show or try again.

I probably neglect to try the Prager show 2-3 days a week.

Also, I estimate Glenn Beck will have a gross, disgusting word or image every one to three minutes.

Of the days I happened to try to listen (which do not constitute all the week days of the year) what I said was true.

Like “every day I tried to get a quick check out it was slowed by a long line” doesn’t mean I went 365 days, just many tries.

I have bought Prager’s book on happiness and one on the Ten commandments, plus have read around half of the content of his Bible commentaries so far (3 published on Genesis, Deuteronomy and Exodus). So he grabbed some money from me.

Ha.

I’ll move those goalposts until I win.😁

Until then, please have mercy on me for not (yet) achieving perfection.

Wow! Indeed!

Watch Florida students’ test scores skyrocket and universities who still value merit and a true education start seriously scouting for students from that state. That’s if companies do not beat them to the punch and hire employees straight from the high school’s in Florida with no college degree required.

Can you imagine a talent pool of students taught and excelling with such a curriculum? Companies across an entire spectrum of industries will be clamoring for such talent.

Perfection? Try simple honesty for a start, being flippant isn't working.

Oh, yeah...

Never mind.

All of that writing to explain what you meant when you
could have made the story whole from the outset.
