    “We’re also going to be teaching the foundations of American history. … So we can continue to be the greatest country in the world.”

    Sounds good! So the history of European colonists stealing land from indigenous people because the colonialist wanted to escape state-sponsored religion back in Europe? How these colonists later used enslaved people from Africa and elsewhere? How less than 100 years after founding we had a Civil War because the south refused to acknowledge that a number of minority groups were actually equal humans to them?
