The United Auto Workers now represents more workers at the University of California than at General Motors. As its industrial base shrinks and its campus membership grows, the union’s politics increasingly reflect the priorities of the university left. The changing membership helps explain the changing agenda.

The U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service issued proposed regulations to implement the new Federal Scholarship Tax Credit under section 25F, commonly known as the Education Freedom Tax Credit, the first federal tax credit supporting private contributions for K-12 scholarships. Under the proposed regulations, eligible taxpayers may claim an annual credit of up to $1,700 for qualifying contributions, or up to $3,400 for married couples filing jointly. Treasury and the IRS also issued companion temporary regulations to establish key procedures for states and Scholarship Granting Organizations to prepare for the launch of the tax credit on January 1, 2027. The proposed regulations advance the Administration’s priorities of expanding educational freedom, restoring parental rights, returning power to the states, and putting American students first. home.treasury.gov/news/press…

Today, the Trump Administration is formally putting into regulation what the law has said all along: Title IX’s protections are based on SEX, not “gender identity.”

Nikole Hannah-Jones believed that it’s unfair that so many black kids are trapped in underperforming New York City schools, and that if she trapped her own daughter in them, she and her husband — with their superior wherewithal — could make the schools better for everyone. What started as a project motivated by a savior complex ended as essentially an episode of educational Munchausen syndrome by proxy. Her bright young daughter fell far behind where she could have been academically. Most parents who are paying attention and who have the means would immediately get a kid out of a school where there are fights during the lunch period, where there is no homework, where the principal and teachers are routinely absent, and where schoolwork isn’t graded — but Nikole Hannah-Jones persisted. By the time her daughter was old enough to realize what was going on and force her mother to let her apply to better high schools, she didn’t know algebra despite getting excellent grades in math at the subpar schools. Hannah-Jones should be furious at the adults who failed her daughter so abysmally, but she’s, in effect, still on their side by portraying school choice as a racist scam and complaining about a lack of resources. The famous line is that a neoconservative is a liberal mugged by reality. The New York City public schools mugged Nikole Hannah-Jones, and yet she still doesn’t want to press charges. nationalreview.com/2026/09/t…

NEW: We visited PS 307, the failing public school that Nikole Hannah-Jones sent her daughter to. The teachers make an average of over $100,000 a year. The school spends $52,000 per student each year. The student/teacher ratio is 9 to 1. We went to another school just down the street that spends less than half of what PS 307 does—yet the academic outcomes are significantly better. Underfunding and racism aren't causing schools to fail. @DanielDiMartino explains what is:
