Stand Up for What?!
Here’s the roundup from this past week:
MOSCHOLARS FUNDING
The Missouri General Assembly passed its budget bills this week, including funding for the MOScholars School Choice program.
This is a MAJOR victory.
The Missouri Legislature approved a $53 billion budget plan on Friday that includes the governor’s $50 million proposal for the state’s school choice program.https://t.co/uLmJ377GKT

The budget heads to Governor Kehoe for his signature.
LEFT-WING BILLIONAIRES
The so-called “grassroots” protests against President Trump are totally fake.
They’re propped up by the likes of George Soros and Hansjorg Wyss.
Billionaires like George Soros and Hansjörg Wyss, along with the Arabella Advisors network, are fueling progressive dark money groups behind the anti-Trump protests.

Together, they’ve poured at least $500 million into the groups staging so-called “grassroots” protests. pic.twitter.com/Clz48Ew2pP
It’s all astroturfed!
JUSTICE SOTOMAYOR
We have a crisis of confidence in our judiciary.
Statements like this from Justice Sotomayor don’t help!
Justice Sotomayor just told an ABA audience that “Our job is to stand up” and that “we can’t lose the battles we are facing.” Also: “We need trained and passionate and committed lawyers to fight this fight.”

That makes a mockery of any appearance of objectivity in cases… pic.twitter.com/fEGVQe70pi
Sorry, Justice – your job is to stand up for the CONSTITUTION.
