^^^^^ That should be “who is controlling that Alamo”, not “whom”; “who” is the subject of the verb “is” and therefore it must be in the subjective (or nominative) case, not in the objective (or accusative) case. If we are talking about the quality of education, perhaps we should extend the discussion to include basic grammar.
Why don’t the schools in the other 49 states just tell publishers they won’t buy any textbook that is approved by a Texas school board? Sheesh, just don’t give them this kind of unwarranted, undeserved power!! Don’t play victim, take a stand!

^^ If you were to say that 2+2=47, and if I were to say, oops, no, that’s 2+2=4, would you say “Nah, I choose to say 2+2=47”? If you were to say “Julius Caesar was killed last Tuesday” and if I were to say, oops, no, it was in 44 BC, would you say, “Nah, I choose to say last Tuesday”? If you were to go to church in your underwear, and it I were to say, oops, you forgot your pants, would you say, “Nah, I choose briefs”? Just wondering.

I think I’ll start a chain of private schools in Texas. I’ll call them “TRUTH TO POWER–DEMOCRATIC AND JEFFERSONIAN”
Every student will be required to have a religion; but, they will be required to keep it out of school. Rev. Dr. Bob Hasty
