Just a NY state certified History teacher, husband, dad and coach surviving in a strange time to teach US history… views are my own and in no way represent the district I work or the content taught to my students.
I’ve had velcro students, I’ve enjoyed the fun of Velcro teachers, this year I have Velcro admin who feel it necessary to observe every teacher every day to verify use of positive feedback, behavior deductions, 90% of students on task, having answers in hand and clear What To Do directions… WTF!🤬

Cool cool cool, let me check my notes, government shutdown over (yay!) prices still rising (boo!) a small group of GOP Senators gave themselves a 500k payout (wtf!) Epstein files might finally be released (about F’ing Time!) SNAP benefits fully funded till September (yay!) we’re all still fucked!

As a U.S. History teacher, I have to believe that there is a way to fix the system that is American Democracy without the nuclear option of tearing it all down and starting over, but the nuclear option might not be so bad. The amount of waste and corruption is staggering and is harming ALL Americans
November 11, 2025 at 4:50 AM
The corruption and the lies run deep in the GOP that they will fight to the death to keep their power now that they finally stole it. Trump is almost an accident, the surprise idiot, just the right ego and nihilism along with a severe lack of empathy and compassion to be the face of this monster

I hate to say this as a U.S. History teacher, it would be naive to think once Trump is gone the Republican Party will revert back. Trump is just the right grifter at the right time, it’s been a 30 year process to gerrymander and force their minority values on Americans, this is the plan #corruptGOP

The FDA can’t just reject generic versions of medications they’ve already approved. The far right is in a tizzy about this and wants the drug banned, but that’s not how it works.

Let’s be honest here, in the end this is what the government shutdown is about: Republicans want the money flowing out of Blue States (and Texas) to solely benefit projects in Red States while harming citizens in ALL communities. This isn’t about fairness, it’s about punishment and retribution

Supreme Leader Trump is going to say and throw a lot of bullshit out over the course of this government shutdown, but in the end it will be clear he refused to negotiate purposefully hurting millions of US citizens and taxpayers so that HE could continue to abuse his power #releasetheepsteinfiles

Most Democrats will admit that the federal government is too big, and the waste and red tape needs to be addressed to make it easier. At the same time, it’s bull💩 when Republicans talk about cutting waste while ignoring rampant corruption wasting billions of taxpayer dollars. It’s time for honesty
October 2, 2025 at 3:50 PM
Why don’t we vote on whether we want a government shutdown, Republicans put their plan forward Democrats put theirs out there and we all vote, school budget style, “We the People” decide because government funding is not a fight a convicted felon should be in charge of #releasetheepsteinfiles

The King of Hate Speech our Supreme Leader, says hate speech is no longer protected by the Constitution if you say something hateful about him. Well you know what, FUCK HIM! He’s a liar, a traitor, a pedophile, a rapist and has a very tiny itsy-bitsy teeny-weeny penis! Release the Epstein Files!

Quick PSA- if you’re at a public park with your preschooler you should probably avoid the loud angry abusive phone conversation full of expletives and derogatory comments about female anatomy, just going to put that out there #notapublicconversation

Do you know who the right wing will never give a Presidential Medal of Freedom to? The 10 year old who saved his friend, they’d rather give it to a bigoted asshole who preached hate and violence #fuckMAGA

The next wannabe governor from Florida was spared prison, had his record sealed, and got not one, but three chances at redemption. Now he’s pushing a D.C. crime bill that would deny those same chances to young adults in the District. That screams “opportunities for me, but not for thee.”

Suddenly "hate speech" is bad. Suddenly "dehumanizing" people is bad. Suddenly "cancel culture" is good. Suddenly words have consequences.

The modern American right in 2025, folks.

I think Mike Johnson is full of shit, but I work in a state that allows for employment-at-will, which means he’s right employers (regardless of what kind) can fire you for almost anything, he also works for an employer like this, but gerrymandering and racial discrimination makes that null and void
Mike Johnson on free speech: "If I'm an employer or I'm a government agency and I have somebody in my employ who is online celebrating the heinous murder of an innocent person, a young husband and father, I can make the decision that they don't deserve to work for me ... I think that's appropriate."

This makes sense, MAGA, the party that at least is consistent in their desire to make sexual assault of minors mainstream… dear MAGA ‘date rape’ by sublime was meant as a warning and a cautionary tale to treat women with respect, not a playbook for your Saturday night. #releasetheepsteinfiles
Yes, release the Epstein files!!!

I don’t need to look up the demographics of the curriculum writer for the unit I’m currently teaching in 6th grade ELA, teaching ‘the Watsons go to Birmingham’ we’ve discussed Point of View, and perspective of character arcs (we are through chapter 8). Not discussed anything of importance #notwoke

I used to have one of those fun burner twitter accounts that I used sparingly to disparage and belittle members of the Trump Administration, now would be a fun time to attack them again, but alas I have forgotten the username and password, along with the burner email account connected to it #Trumpf

the Executive Order called to eliminate information that reflects a “corrosive ideology” that disparages historic Americans. National Park Service officials are broadly interpreting that directive to apply to information on racism, sexism, slavery, gay rights or persecution of Indigenous people.

JD Vance keeps blaming the left for right-wing violence. Kind of sounds like he's being a "Karen"? Although, bigoted white men like him are even more whiny. Maybe using Vance's first name, "James," fits better than "Karen" for this behavior.

If we’re only promoting the GREATNESS OF AMERICA during the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, we’re going to have to deal with Trump, he wants only positive things and there’s nothing positive about him so next year if anyone asks about POTUS 45/47 “sorry he’s been redacted”
September 16, 2025 at 2:27 AM
I’m sorry but WTAF, are we seriously going to whitewash our history like this across the country? Remove all references to slavery, racism, gay rights and other issues? if we’re eliminating the things that put America in a bad light, let’s erase Trump from our history
