Naomi Wadler (the 11y/o who spoke magnificently at March for our Lives) will be on Ellen tomorrow. We're working with her to speak at our annual gun sense event this summer. She's an Alexandria Public Schools student 💪

When I was perusing Indeed today, this posting popped up on my recommended jobs list. I am not sure how wildlife, biology, and science education search terms equal Assistant Director of the FBI OCA, but apparently the position is open if anyone is looking for a thankless, punishing job.😉 It was posted ~12 hours ago. I wonder what that means for current FBI Assistant Director Greg Brower? www.indeed.com/m/viewjob?jk=33a2d761f740ffc0&from=recjob

Yay WISCONSIN. Dallet beat Screnock (however that's spelled) today. Thankfully, and the initiative to abolish the State Treasurer turned back. I was worried. Everywhere I went on springbreak I saw Screnock signs.

WHY DOES HE THINK NONE OF THE RULES APPLY TO HIM!?!?! Because republican leadership keeps letting him get away with everything. Also he’s a rich asshole who probably never heard the word no until he won the election. (Don’t mind me, I’m salty this morning because N started daycare. I’m a mess.)

hugs cakewench. it's so hard. before you know it, he'll wave and say "bye bye" because he has playing to do, and you'll know it's the right, best thing. Or maybe that was me, this morning.

WHY DOES HE THINK NONE OF THE RULES APPLY TO HIM!?!?! Because they never have, so why would they now? (Honestly wanted to say “and never will” but I need to havehope that at some point this will change and someone will finally hold him responsible. Come on Midterms.)

Was talking to my mom this morning on the way in about Elizabeth Esty and got all sorts of enraged again. How can you be a supporter for #metoo and protect this kind of person on your staff? My mom is also really concerned that her seat could flip. And even more concerned about one of the Republicans who might run. Hopefully there are some solid liberal candidates in there. I know it's my corner of the world but this is a pretty interesting article if anyone wants to read. editions.lib.umn.edu/smartpolitics/2018/04/03/can-republicans-pick-up-elizabeth-estys-us-house-seat/

Yay for WI! I used to live there but moved just before Walker was elected. I unfollowed a lot of people from my hometown so I have a skewed view but it was really nice to see how proud my WI friends were to get out and vote yesterday.

I have never felt more secure in my job as a children's librarian. Hahaha!!!!! This provided a nice laugh for me. 1. How can you have three kids and look visibly THAT uncomfortable reading a children's story. 2. I am a high school teacher but even I know that in reading to a group of kids 101 you hold the book so the kids can see it the whole time. These women clearly were not paying attention in elementary school/story hour. Sheesh. 3. Melania did a better job I think. 4. I can't believe I am spending my lunch watching Melania and SHS read easter stories to little kids. 5. I don't believe for a second that she reads that book to her kids all the time. I think this is the first time she has ever read it.

I'm confused as to why the president thinks our southern border is a bigger threat than the Syrian civil war.

China: Here's another $50B in tariffs, stupid Americans. SNIP Trump: It's not a trade war. SNIP I like how he's implying that you could add the trade deficit and intellectual property theft, like they're figures that make sense to be added. He is in so far over his head.

Tip from a storytime pro - always wear leggings under a dress if you're doing storytime. I recently had a kid ask about the baby in my belly. He looked at me a little confused, then lifted up my dress to see if he could see the baby hiding underneath.

A NYT alert just said the WH says we're staying in Syria despite what 45 said.

Scott Walker is in a tweet spiral over a Democrat winning a WI Supreme Court seat. He was pushing to eliminate the office of state treasurer, which was defeated yesterday too. Basically April 3rd was a bad day to be Scott Walker.
