See how “Released Time” religious programs like #lifewise start out saying “no class time will be missed” but then quietly begin taking kids out of real instruction, violating both the law *and* the students’ right to full academic time.

I’ve tried hard to care less about what pronouns someone uses, but have genuinely found that impossible to do.

Why are ICE agents being paid during the shutdown, but not air traffic controllers? 🤨

M4L losing ALL contested races nationwide, while fun to hope for, is sadly*untrue*. We held off sharing these posts because we couldn’t verify. Now we can. M4L suffered losses, but not to this degree.

It’ll happen. Just not today.

Thank you for trusting us, we work hard to verify our sources.

Ryan Walters knowingly and deliberately caused harm to children. While we are glad he’s out, it never should have taken this long.

Parents should never have to beg for their elected officials to keep children out of harms way.

After Ryan Walters, the violently anti-LGBTQ School Superintendent of Oklahoma resigned, youth crisis calls from LGBTQ+ people dropped by 36 percent.

Ryan was intent on making LGBTQ youth suffer, and his resignation is saving lives.

Christian Nationalism is neither Christian nor patriotic.

Christian nationalism demands Christianity be privileged by the State and implies that to be a good American, one must be Christian. And we call #bullshit.

I hope not too but you’d be surprised. We have some in most of the progressive districts in the country. I’d link their map but I don’t want to give a boost to their website.

Best course of action is to learn more. We are actively discussing several high school based MAGA style clubs popping up.
