At least 120K of Trump's $60 Bible's were made in China (for $3 each a 1900% mark up). That is a fact per Fox News. In addition, Oklahoma School Superintendent has mandated that Bibles be in every classroom; the crux is that the way the law was written only Trump Bibles seem to qualify.

Regular PACs: Trump's PAC $ can be transferred to other committees he controls, but there are restrictions. PACs like his "Save America" can transfer funds to other political committees, including those affiliated with Trump, as long as they comply with federal campaign finance laws. However, these transfers cannot be used for personal expenses or converted into campaign accounts for his own election efforts. Joint fundraising committees can also distribute funds to affiliated committees.

SUPER PACS: Trump-controlled super PACs have significantly more flexibility with leftover campaign funds. They can spend unlimited amounts to support candidates, including Trump himself, in future elections, provided there is no direct coordination with his campaign. Super PACs can also donate to other organizations aligned with their political causes or keep the funds for future political activities.

Trump can hold the money in his SUPER PACs indefinitely by stating his future intention to run for office. This allows him to keep raising and holding funds without using them for personal expenses.

Over the past year, Trump has been actively moving at least $20 million in funds between his PACs to his SUPER PACs. This transfer has raised concerns about potentially circumventing campaign finance laws, as super PACs cannot legally coordinate spending with his campaign.

Additionally, Trump's campaign & affiliated committees have spent significant amounts at his properties, funneling millions into his businesses. These financial maneuvers are under scrutiny by the FEC.

Here's the conundrum. I'm trying to figure out if I should do this as concerned parent or collegial practitioner. I should preface this by saying that I have almost no hope of changing the pace or priority of content. I don't think ANY observation (wearing any hat) about how he prioritizes different content or pace would have any effect whatsoever.

That said, if my observations wearing any hat will likely not have any effect other than communicating concern, should I still contact the teacher just to say I'm concerned but I don't want to be nagging and say "That's not how I would do it...". I keep on trying to compare this to a tradesman coming to my house; if an electrician, framer, mason, siding, windows, plumber, roofer, whatever were at my house (NOT LIKELY I do all of that work myself and have only had two occasions where a job was beyond me) would I say to them as the knowledgable homeowner "That's not how I would do it..." But that analogy fails because I still have an opportunity to influence the job. Addressing the teacher, my possibility club changing anything will likely have no effect. If anything just food for thought for a veteran teacher who is probably set in his ways.
I've had parents of kids in my classroom who were also teachers and I have gotten feedback that the pace (not my presentation or prioritization) is relentless. My reply was that it's an AP course that earns them college credit in high school and we treated as such. The problem here is it's a two-year course and the first year teacher did not keep a pace that the second year teacher didn't have to rush but that's not her call, that's departmental - all teachers use the same pace.

I don't know. I'm leaning towards saying nothing and just helping my kid the best way I can at home. What do you think? Have you or your parents ever intervened with a teacher about academic or curriculum concerns because they had specialized knowledge or even if they were just playing parent? How did that go?
