I’ve seen people mentioning how local news should be out on the ground. Not sure if they are or not but I have seen clips of @donlemonofficial.bsky.social on the ground talking to folks that pass by in Chicago and DC. Thought I’d throw some credit where due.

The SpEd system in this country is set up in a way that families know they're entitled to certain things but also know they have to fight tooth and nail to get what they deserve.

They're tenacious experienced fighters who'll do anything for their kids. These assholes just sucker punched them all.

There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.

America’s children deserve better than this.

In Florida, the real estate market is in a state of collapse, insurance companies refuse to insure homeowners or do so for exorbitant sums, the cost of living is soaring and rising waters threaten the integrity of buildings across the state. The FL GOP, however, is obsessed with battling sharia law.

Ezra Levin’s message here is perfect.

Despite all their best efforts at scaring us, it’s clear the goon squad regime are the ones who are scared.

Let’s make it the biggest demonstration in American history.

😂 None of those reasons were why I suspected it was fake. I couldn’t imagine a rat getting that far on set and making it to the desk but leaned in and laughed. Ugh. I’m hating AI.
