AM Grind March 3rd: From Vexing News to Our Valuable Vets
Starting with a Florida Shocker to Ending With Hope
Brett LaGrave’s AM Grind was especially jammed packed today:
Florida goes CCP mode with bloggers;
New Jersey continues to fail the whales;
China investing in China;
US investing in Ukraine;
Saving children through homeschooling; and
Honoring our Veterans.
Yet, there was so much more to be had in the AM Grind.
One of the most surprising bits of breaking news came from Florida.
Considering the high praise Governor Ron DeSantis receives as Florida {has been} the bastion of freedom for citizens, the hosts and listeners of the AM Grind were, in a word, flabbergasted to learn of this:

Greta Thunburg is absent from another environmental travesty: New Jersey off-shore wind turbines continue to doom whales.

Protesters saved the day in Greece:
After a horrific train derailment all train travel was suspended as hordes of protesters demanded their government investigate the cause before resuming service.

Meanwhile, China is investing $1.9 Billion in the semiconductor industry.

This will only strengthen the power of BRICS in another move against the United States as the world’s super power.
(No, the CHIPS act does not prevent foreign investment.)

Moving on the discussion turned to homeschooling.
Every day families entrust their children to their local public schools in order to provide them an education.
Yet, day after day families are attacked by public officials such as this Democrat in Massachusetts who “complained about the cost of special education for children with disabilities who are not aborted”. But wait there’s more…
[w]hat's happening in Wisconsin schools -- where kids can assume a completely different identity without parents knowing -- has gone on in California since 2013. Michigan since 2016. New Jersey since 2018. If this hasn't made it to your state, trust me. It's coming. The other side is moving as fast as it can to get its hands on your sons and daughters. And in so many horrifying cases, it's too late for anyone to stop them.
With attacks coming from all sides, parents are looking more into homeschooling for their children.
Several listeners provided valuable resources and information for families considering homeschooling as an option:

A member of America Mission leadership, Leigh-Ann Bellew discussed resources and support available to parents looking into homeschooling:
At about the 2:45 mark in the audio, Brett moved into the special Friday segment of honoring and supporting our military families, active-duty members, and Veterans.
Touched on how children are not being taught the value of Veterans.
Encouraged the circle of support needed for military families;
Discussed the difficulty in objecting to unconstitutional orders for those in military service;
Recruitment levels are at an all-time low due to “woke” policies and attempts at social reengineering (reductions is a threat to national security and may lead to drafts in the future for both men and women);
Speakers emphasized the need to connect, speak freely, and find an outlet to vent and find answers.
Listeners shared uplifting messages in the space, such as:
