I was horrified by the pics. They are all over my FB feed rn. So far they haven’t said what if any consequences they’ll face. And it will be the ‘we don’t comment on personnel matters ‘ when they do

It makes me angry, but if that many teachers felt is was okay to not only do that, but also proudly post it to public social media, the overall culture at the school is accepting of that behavior.

It’s made dead state and god FB pages. I’m sure we’re once again going to make the msnbc front page with horribleness
As if the post itself wasn’t bad enough comments such as lighten up its Halloween are the majority locally

Also, Hassan Minaj has a show on Netflix now and it's really good. It's like the Chris Hayes show meets stand up comedy.

I am very tired of people saying this migrant caravan talk by POTUS and ending birthright citizenship is a “distraction.”
I’m sorry but we are talking about someone who has already taken children away from their parents and put them in fucking camps and tents, as well as enacting the Muslim Ban.
People’s lives. I have no doubt in my mind he wants to shoot these people dead if they cross the border. None.
And you all know me, I tend to not jump to the scary place right away, but no, this shit isn’t a distraction. It’s convenient for him, it’s not a distraction.

His talk got bombs sent to people’s homes and he’s done nothing, fucking nothing to calm tensions. This motherfucker does not care. He doesn’t know the laws. He doesn’t know how government works. He didn’t even know Congress wasn’t in session.
None of this is a distraction. He’s doing exactly what he said he would do. Wake up.

And how soon we forget this fuck was calling for the execution of the Central Park 5 - took out fucking ads in the papers, before they had finished their trial. 12 days after they were accused.
And still didn’t believe in their innocence when they were exonerated by DNA evidence and an actual killer coming forward. Still doesn’t to this day.
I mean come on. We all have to be better. This idiot isn’t fucking around.

More good news out of the courts. "The Supreme Court rejected the Trump administration's request to stop a lawsuit brought by youths who are seeking to hold the government accountable for failing to do enough to fight climate change."

Wait how and why does one get an ethics waiver? Is it like a conflict of interest situation? I was only half listening because tired but Maddow covered this either last night or tonight-I think last night. You can listen to her on MSNBC's site.

Wow. Also a reminder that we've been allowed to vote less than 100 years. That's...crazy.

I'm seeing that the Pentagon denied the DGS request to send troops to the border. Good.

Andrew Gillum left the campaign trail to go home. Which is exactly what he should do, but is, nevertheless, surprising these days.

I’m so upset about that I can hardly speak of it. These are the people educating our youth? Fuck.

I'm canvassing in Danica Roem's district today. One of the central promises of her campaign was to fix Rte 28.
Well. It's all under construction so, go Danica!

A third of the students in the school I teach at are refugees. I was seeing red when I saw this. How can you be so cruel as to think this was funny or okay?

I'd be calling too. Because, nope nope nope. The Idaho coalition against domestic violence has a moveon petition petitions.moveon.org/sign/no-racism-in-middleton.fb52?source=c.fb&r_by=20787006On a brighter note one of my HS friends has a daughter who is not white. Her high school (in my district not Middleton) addressed this very strongly with the students yesterday. They stressed how unacceptable it was and how it’s not tolerated in their school. She was grateful because obviously it hits closer to home for her kid

This school is in the same county. And how Mexican heritage should be shown. (There were a bunch of pictures of the fiesta but I chose the one that best represents) Attachment Deleted

Apparently earlier today Trump conducted foreign policy via Twitter meme (tweeting "Sanctions are coming", re: Iran, complete with Game of Thrones font and pic of him looking VERY SRS). Darth is having a field day.
