Charlie Kirk trying to start "America first" K-12 school

This one rattled me a little. Kirk is wants to create a "America first" K-12 private online school called Turning Point Academy. The intent is lesson plans that teach a world view based on Kirk's perspective.
It's apparently falling apart as the organizations contracted to create lessons plans apparently balked and pulled out after they realized what they were being asked to do.
