Because I don't want kids in elementary school concerned with sex. They need to focus on learning more important subjects. A child in kindergarten dosen't need to know about oral sex, anal sex or masterbation.

Those efforts remain widely opposed by liberals and civil libertarians.

Hitler,and slave owners were also against books,and minorities/women being educated. They were more desirable. Meaning they were to dumb to know when someone was pissing on them and telling them it's raining. I guess that's why Donald Trump said he LOVES the uneducated. And, President LBJ said give

LBJ also said; “I'll have those ------- voting Democrat for the next 200 years.” ― Lyndon B. Johnson---- LBJ used people, he didn't love people.

Wasn't that long ago the liberals/socialist wanted to ban Mark Twain books due to their interpretation of 'racism'. Its not OK when they do it, not OK when 'our side' does it. Protecting your kids starts with you, not banning books.

I support efforts to remove the people. that put filth in school libraries.

Is this the land of the free or a Country controlled by a dictator called the GOP that keeps taking or attempting to take rights from certain citizens?

Max DeYoung

Joe is the dictator.

Cleaning up all the bloat, fraud and corruption in our federal government all while helping with the massive over spending causing inflation.

Tim Kennedy

People need to get back to acting on what’s good for The country and sop asking what the country can do for them. We are in a me society we need to get back to a we society.

Scott Keel

Long overdue!!!!

Eric Smith

Absolutely! Long overdue.

Maria Gose

Accountability is way past due. Keep forging forward .

Melissa Hill

I think government spending has gotten out of control and needs over site and their own audit.

James Lucas

The Democrats, since Clinton have talked about doing what DOGE is not doing. Yes, Clinton and Obama did some EO, but always gave more lip service than action. Now we have action from Republicans' and still Democrat lip service.

Max DeYoung

Best thing that's ever happened for our government.

Rodney Scott

Max DeYoung

You just defined a democrat.

Ellen Jarvis

Think before you act!

Connie B.

Horrible what they are doing to people. I don't understand how firing people would take care of fraud and abuse. They are stripping people of their livelihoods and it will come back at us because the government will have to cover their unemployment stipends and we will have many more homeless ppl.

Max DeYoung

That's the problem. You don't understand.

About 14.5% of the US workforce, or 20.2 million people, work in the public sector. This includes state, local, and federal government employees. That's way to many people working at a job that produces nothing.

Fat Guy Outdoors

Maybe you should turn of the news and research. Why pay 5 people to do the job of 1. Why keep lazy employees who don't produce when you can keep highly productive workers and increase there pay. See its called rewarding hard work and punishing lazy people. Hard work does pay off.

Elon is not an elected official, not even a cleared contractor for what he is doing. This sabotages democracy.

Max DeYoung

Elon is only exposing criminals. He is doing nothing else. Become informed, instead of brainwashed.

Max DeYoung

While often categorized as a democracy, the United States is more accurately defined as a constitutional federal republic.

Fat Guy Outdoors

Just like Dr. Fauci right.

Ashley Edelen

Unilateral decisions from the Executive branch cannot go unchecked (on BOTH “sides”). Just like when Biden shouldn’t have bypassed the SC with student loan forgiveness. Democracy is fragile and we cannot lean towards dictatorship.

Fat Guy Outdoors

Please explain how exposing fraud, waste and abuse is harming democracy in a republic?
