The Department of Education hung a banner of the late conservative activist Charlie Kirk outside its headquarters as the country prepares to celebrate its 250th birthday.

Kirk was publicly assassinated on the campus of Utah Valley University last year by 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, who was charged with multiple crimes, including aggravated murder, obstruction of justice and witness tampering. Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty in their case against Robinson.

Kirk founded Turning Point USA to promote conservative values on college campuses across the country. President Trump and Vice President Vance have credited him for helping them win the 2024 election.

Kirk’s image hangs alongside separate banners honoring Catharine Beecher and Booker T. Washington. A banner next to them reads “Empowering our States to tell the Stories of our Heroes in American Education.”

4. The Hill has convicted Tyler Robinson...

No need for a trial, apparently.

5. I always wanted to hang Charlie Kirk.......

But after he was shot, it was superfluous. With this, I would pay good money to whomever shot a flaming arrow into that banner and torched it.

8. Makes me ill.

As a retired middle school teacher after 35 years, this is just one more horror. Are all of Miller’s minions required to sit in a room 24-7 & come up with at least 20 horrors a day and implement them immediately?

10. Republicans have been trying to get rid of the Department of Education ever since Reagan. They look at it as a tool for

brainwashing children. That's what they are using to for now.

9. Paintball, anyone?

Can you get a paintball gun with a silencer on it?
