In a scattershot pattern that now extends from coast to coast, continental US states have been announcing new hotspots of chronic wasting disease (CWD).

The contagious and always-fatal neurodegenerative disorder infects the cervid family that includes deer, elk, moose and, in higher latitudes, reindeer. There is no vaccine or treatment.

    Serious question: what happens to education now? I mean will there be a regulating body or what happens exactly?

      If he pulls this off, I assume they’re going to pursue this bonkers idea of private or voucher schools. They want to control the narrative in classes.

      An educated voter is a dangerous voter.

      Section. 2. (a) From the link above says that responsibilities of the DoE will be transferred to the states in a way that maintains the services Americans rely on.

      I’m doubtful that they are going to do it in an organized fashion though.

        Thanks, sorry didn’t open the link, should’ve done it before asking.

        And yeah if the states handle this I can imagine the chaos caused by the disparity. This is a really interesting time to be alive.
