Some employees at the Department of Education changed their responses back to the more neutral language, only to have it changed yet again to the partisan response, multiple sources tell WIRED.

This pissed me off until I remembered that all these positions were replaced by partisan shit-suckers and opted to ignore it instead. The fact that republican mouthpieces can lie to the faces of their supporters and still get believed means they're hopeless to learn anything else. They live in a reality that is going to crash and burn in a few months, and they can blame none of it on any opposition but their own rejection of reality.
