#PragerU has a recent history of teaming up with the #Trump admin, including on a “civics-education” campaign assembled for the semiquincentennial. At least one organizer canceled an appearance of the truck to avoid appearing to endorse PragerU’s politics. (Hillsdale College, a liberal-arts school known for its conservative, Christian bent, also worked on the trucks.)

…With this rah-rah, tightly proscribed approach to #history, #PragerU is a natural partner to the #Trump admin. Marissa Streit, PragerU’s CEO, said she believes that history that is too pessimistic is nothing less than a #NationalSecurity threat. “I feel very, very strongly that if young Americans are going to be taught to hate America, they’re not going to want to enlist in the military.…They will propagate anti-American ideas that will lead to the weakening of our country & our society.”
