While hopeful about Lindel Fields as state supe, I am seeing old-school “data-driven reform” buzzwords floatin’ about. That usually means more testing, blaming teachers, & profiteering.
Yuck! 🤢
Public schools can’t be run like a business & kids aren’t widgets, full stop. 🛑

It's equally bothersome that we continue to use language that even subtly suggests that "DEI" ever meant that the most qualified didn't get the job – even when ostensibly being "for" it. "Getting rid" of DEI always meant we'd allow "the right" incompetence over merit.
“Trump has initiated another era of American regression. He isn’t replacing D.E.I. with merit. He’s replacing it with sycophancy and malice.”

Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

Sickening behavior by this agent. The fact that Mayor Adams has rolled out the red carpet for ICE is a stain on our city.
I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

Let's talk about Tylenol and pregnancy.
Fundamentally, this is about making sure women do not get one ounce of relief, but it's also about criminalization.
How long do you think it's going to be before they arrest someone for taking Tylenol during a pregnancy? We are going down that road.

Since Trump’s MAGA majority has controlled the Supreme Court, SCOTUS has overturned
42 years of precedent deferring to agencies
50 years backing a women’s reproductive rights
60 years of affirmative action
And-likely-a 90 year old case shielding the FTC
It’s the most radical Court in US history

#BREAKING: Over dissents from Justices Sotomayor, Kagan & Jackson, #SCOTUS grants a stay in the Slaughter case (allowing President Trump to remove the last Dem member of the FTC), *and* grants certiorari "before judgment" to decide whether to formally overrule its 1935 ruling in Humphrey's Executor.

Jimmy Kimmel is not only a hilarious humanitarian who exercised his comedic skills to skewer the president of the United States but he also is an incredibly charitable human. As opposed to the narcissist-in-chief.

On a related note, here's a flashback to him standing up for his son and to protect healthcare coverage for millions of Americans 8 years ago.

This includes the third-country removal to Ghana and another secret flight. We figured out where it landed.

Critical part of the President's new $100,000 charge for H1-B visas: The Administration can also offer a $100,000 discount to any person, company, or industry that it wants. Replacing rules with arbitrary discretion.
Want visas? You know who to call and who to flatter.
