The teaching profession is underfunded. Higher salaries for all who work in schools would keep teachers in the profession and encourage others to consider it.
Schools are understaffed.

It will never not be bitterly ironic that the most anti-immigrant administration in American history has a FLOTUS that sounds like Latka Gravas’ sister.

Completely nuts. Look at the video. The officer who fired the first shot had no fear of an accidental firing.
From the NY Post. You know they are really scrambling when they are running "The gun was no angel" stories.

Beyond helping establish DHS itself in 2003, Mr. Mitnick was a senate-confirmed Trump choice for General Counsel for DHS in his first term. I've talked with him a few times, and he's not a man for hyperbole. So bear that in mind when you see him calling out DHS's "lawlessness, fascism, and cruelty."

Bondi just proved it: ICE operations in Minnesota aren’t about law, they’re about Trump getting voter data. Armed federal agents are their tool for authoritarian election interference.

If it was about actual immigration they would be in the states with the most immigrants. But most of us already figured that out 🤷🏻♀️😡

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump.
Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

Realize that if they're lying openly about the two killings we have ample footage of, they're definitely lying about other deaths involving ICE.

Seems like it would be exactly how they’re doing it anyway
Imagine how much they’d be lying about what happened without all the videos showing it from multiple angles.

Heck of a game. Lot of big-time performances from players on both teams. Bain. Mendoza, Toney, Ponds, Becker.
And what a story Indiana football is under Cignetti.

It’s genuinely bizarre that people who refuse to show their face or identify themselves are demanding identification from people who are fully visible.

So, if I'm following all this correctly, a bunch of internet shitposters who spent years screaming "don't tread on me" and warning about federal agents stomping out people's rights... have been hired as ICE agents to go around breaking into people's homes, kidnapping & shooting them

Don't bother arguing about whether ICE is a police force or a military force. It's neither. It behaves as a disorganized, violent mob, cursing, shouting contradictory orders, and attacking unarmed citizens on a whim. It is deployed to create fear and chaos, not to enforce laws or establish order.

Giving up 25 in the 4Q is one thing, but it’s the only scoring 6 in the 2H by the Packers that just cannot happen. McManus’ sour foot or not.
