Random, but positive anecdote- H teaches US History 1 and has been having conversations with them about who the government works for and who it actually should work for. He then had them reflect on something that they would like to see change on. He said many of them wrote about gun control. That’s amazing. When I did another reflection I asked my students about the first time they realized the world wasn’t always a wonderful place. Many of them said Sandy Hook. I think this generation is growing up with this reality which saddens me, but they are angry about it which gives me hope.

Apparently Peter Navarro made up one of the experts he quotes in a bunch of his books. I'm simply shocked.

Good news out of Florida. The way Stacey Abrams and Andrew Gillum have taken their losses* and turned them into a brave and unceasing fight for voting rights is such an amazing example for all of us

I just read that Representative Cummings will be the first black MOC to lie in repose in the Capitol.

Also arrested at this climate change protest blocking the road outside the Capitol: Law & Order actor Sam Waterston, who says this is his first time being arrested: t.co/GVvCgv4RYKI have such an inexplicable crush on him and it just got bigger.

I've been waiting for this.
US officials tell me ALARM BELL RINGING among diplomats in DC that U.S. could one day be held responsible for Crimes Against Humanity for ethnic cleansing of Syrian Kurds by opening the door to it, watching it, encouraging it (Trump's tweets and statements) and not stopping it.

As we should. This administration needs to be held responsible by SOMEONE.

I didn’t see this mentioned yet. This is disgraceful. And should be a huge story, but alas.

So now Rooney is retiring. Cool cool cool. I’m glad no one planning on running again will say anything about the crime spree happening in the Oval Office.

I drove by a T/P 2020 Flag today. Long wow. Directly across from a happy dippy super liberal school. The American flag that was hanging with it was in shreds. Overall unsettling.
