3 of 3/ Did you know the Prosegur company is worth somewhere between $1.5-3 billion? Or that the founders of the company are personally worth billions? Sounds to me like Prosegur got a sweetheart deal in order to replace the Postal Police Officers, who are unionized Interesting, isn't it?

4 of 7/ More recently conservatives have added the "liberal indoctrination" in public schools as the reason for the private schools. Besides the outright racism, this comes from the desire to raise white children in a strictly Christian context

Dan West @danielkwest.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
