Over the years, as most who read my stuff will testify, I have followed what goes on in the vaunted, so-called "halls of education" in this country, particularly when those halls are located in public school buildings. Some pretty far-out things have happened in this country in the name of public education, but what I am about to comment on here may be the most expensive.
I came across a blog spot called Newsalert http://nalert.blogspot.rs just yesterday that had an article on it datelined May 25, 2017. The headline asked this question: "Why Does the Chicago Public School System have $9 Billion Dept With Only 381,000 Students?" When I first read it I couldn't believe I hadn't misread it. I thought it should have been $9 million, so I went back and reread it. It was $9 billion. Simply amazing! The article started off: "Chicago public schools will look to borrow $900 million in the coming weeks adding to the district's $9 billion dept--but it remains unclear if anyone will actually give them all the money The loans are $500 million more than Mayor Rahm Emanuel's office announced last week when a financial rescue plan was outlined....District officials told board members Wednesday that the district would likely 'just run out of money' if it didn't take out these loans."
It almost seems unreal. How does a public school district get $9 billion in debt? Where does the money go? Who ends up with it? What does it get used for? I realize you have to spend quite a chunk on teachers' salaries, especially in Chicago, where it seems that some school superintendents earn almost as much a congressmen and you have to have lots of books, paper and pencils, (and probably now, computers) for over 300,000 kids, but, $9 billion dollars worth?
And who, in the end, will pay for all this? Why the lucky Chicago taxpayers of course. It will be their "privilege" to get stuck with the tab for all this, plus interest. But they should feel lucky to get to do this. After all, its all for "quality education" for the kiddies, right? Anyone who thinks that public schools are not the biggest rat hole you ever poured your money into just hasn't been paying attention for the last 150 years.
Several years ago I published a little booklet called The Unitarian/Socialist Foundations of Public Education in which I showed that anti-Christ Unitarians and anti-Christ socialists provided the basic foundations for what we refer to as "the public schools." They are not public. They are really government schools and they provide (for a hefty price) government-approved propaganda for your kids. Those parents who woke up and saw the light years ago took their kids out of public schools and either put them in private and Christian schools or they home schooled them. Unfortunately, these good folks still have to pay the lion's share of their property taxes (another bad institution) to pay for kids to be propagandized in public schools.
But parents need to start learning to think outside the box. The public schools are not your only option in most cases. The school situation in Chicago is one glaring example of the cost of "public education" in America. The unseen costs are measured in the effects of those schools on the souls of your children and on your culture, and in most cases, those effects only show up later.

Who Is John DeStefano?
by Al Benson Jr.
Never heard of John DeStefano? Well, until tonight, neither had I, but as the saying goes, you learn something new every day and I guess today was my day to learn about John DeStefano. I'm not quite sure I like what I learned, but then, I guess you take the bad with the good.
I read an article by Mike Cernovich on www.Infowars.com for May 17th which told me what I needed to know about Mr. DeStefano. Here is some of it. Read it and weep!
Mr. Cernovich says: "Johnny DeStefano, a GOP elite loyalist who never vocally supported Trump, was somehow given the most important job in a presidential transition. As director of presidential personnel, DeStefano decides who will work in the Trump administration. DeStefano has been using his power to undermine Trump in several ways."
"Johnny DeStefano, head of personnel and policy for President Donald Trump, has blocked Trump supporters from the White House, twenty-three people with direct knowledge of hiring and personnel have reported to me. Over 800 Trump supporters hold positions as Schedule C Federal Employees. These positions are temporary and expire after 120 days." Those positions will be up at the end of this week--and who will those people be replaced with?
Cernovich said: "Fewer than 15% of Trump's temporary appointees (Schedule C) have been given permanent positions. Their terms are coming up and they are being sent home...Even pro-Trump interns are being blocked, as another source told me."
"DeStefano has brought in rabid Never Trumpers like Brian Hook...Alex Pfeiffer of the Daily Caller exclusively reported back in March: Brian Hook, a Trump critic and former
Bush administration official, is currently serving as the State Department's director of policy planning, the Daily Caller has learned..."
"Since taking over at State, Brian Hook has pulled the security clearances of several of Trump's most loyal supporters, putting America's national security at risk. DeStefano has also been coordinating with H. R. McMaster to 'Make the NSC Democrat Again'." If you want to know who H. R. McMaster is, read the article posted on May 16th on http://revisedhistory.wordpress.com entitled False Prophets in the White House?
We have, in effect, a civil war going on in this country at this point--the Trump administration vs. the Deep State, shadown government, or whatever you want to call it. These people are attempting to illegitimately overthrow the legitimate Trump administration and replace it with a horrendous collectivist nightmare of their own concoction.
Mr. Cernovich says: " Tweet this (the Infowars article) to: @RealDonaldTrump." I am not on Twitter so I can't do that but maybe some of you all can.

Is The Deep State About to Try to Overthrow Trump?
by Al Benson Jr.
All day today 5/5/17 on the Internet there have been news clips about how the Deep State is in the process of removing Donald Trump from the office of President. There has been commentary about "secret meetings" among some in Congress and there was an article in New Yorker magazine about just exactly to legally go about doing this. So it's on the minds of Establishment thinkers.
It's no secret that the Ruling Establishment does not like Trump's agenda to return power back to the American people, and so they must find a way to thwart that effort so they can continue to hang onto the control over us they have had for decades now. No tyrant willingly surrenders his control over others--he, or they will do whatever is necessary to retain total control. This seems to be where we are at this point.
If I have it right, this is the way it works. Under the 25th Amendment, in order to preserve what they refer to as the Continuity of Government if a majority of the President's cabinet, for some reason, think he is unfit to continue in office, they can remove him.
The President can challenge this, but then the proceeding would have to go to the House, where at this point, Paul Ryan is the Speaker, and he is not exactly Mr. Trump's most enthusiastic supporter. I have always had my doubts about Mr. Ryan, even since he was Mitt Romney's vice-presidential running mate.
It's also worth noting that some members of Trump's cabinet have Establishment backgrounds. How some of them got their posts is a mystery. They are not who I would have picked to support my agenda if I were Trump. So I wonder, if Trump picked them on his own, or did he have "advice" from someone with ulterior motive?
If for some reason this plan goes awry, then the Deep State denizens can fall back on some kind of impeachment process. You have to know the Ruling Establishment (Council on Foreign Relations/Trilateral Commission/Bilderbergers, George Soros, etc. are behind all this.
These people have been dogging Trump's trail ever since he got elected. They have never stopped trying to destabilize his administration, never backed off, except to plot new strategy to take him down when their current effort failed and they had to regroup and try again. You have to admit, if you are honest, that you have never seen a presidency dogged by such intense bad publicity and outright lies by what passes for the "news" media. You must admit that today's "news" media has taken prevarication and delusion to even greater levels than heretofore they had. What's going on now makes Watergate almost seem like child's play.
So keep your eyes open. You may be about to witness the overthrow of your duly elected President and his replacement with some Deep State stooge that will pander to the Establishment and do whatever they want him/her/it to do as they seek to roll back Trump's agenda and take us all back to Square One--the first stages of Modern Feudalism!
One thing you can do about all this is to pray. Ask the Lord to throw a spiritual monkey wrench into this scheme. For more background, check out www.infowars.com and www.stonecoldtruth.com and for a chaser, try www.brietbart.com on the Internet for more detail than I can give here. If this does happen, your only hope, humanly speaking, might well be to do what the Southern States did in 1861. Better that than to live in bondage!
