The Left and the Department of Education: It Is Not about the Money

 The article discusses how the left uses the Department of Education for control rather than financial gain, aiming to undermine parental rights and indoctrinate children.

• Author Thaddeus G. McCotter reflects on the historical persecution of the Catholic Church in Mexico from 1926 to 1935 and compares it to the current situation in the U. S. regarding education.

• The radical Mexican government sought to limit religious influence and enforce a socialist educational agenda, focusing on the indoctrination of youth through extensive sexual education programs.

• Historical resistance from Mexican society against these educational reforms occurred, revealing the conflict between government authority and parental rights.

• The article emphasizes a speech by Gen. Plutarco Elias Calles, asserting that children should belong to the community rather than their families, reflecting a broader left-wing belief system that undermines parental authority.

• The left’s current support for the Department of Education is framed as a means to exert influence, convert children to leftist ideologies, and diminish the role of parents in education.

• The push against eliminating the Department of Education includes arguments for reform rather than abolition; however, the author expresses skepticism based on past experiences.

The article argues that there is a need to keep education at the local and state levels, emphasizing parental rights over federal control. Abolishing the Department of Education could help restore these rights and ensure a more balanced educational approach for children.
