Class is in session, Pencil Busters. Just a week after Trump won re-election, we brace ourselves for the onslaught of attacks on public education. Trump has a video laying out his 10-point plan to reform this country's education. Among the points: return school prayer, make hiring and firing decisions based on political loyalty, and funnel public school money to private schools through vouchers. Oh, and eliminate the Federal Department of Education. What will that mean, and how can we be prepared? Tim and Producer Jess break it down.

On the matter of school prayer, check out The Satanic Temple. They do good work!
