🚨🚨 Deranged letter from Education Secretary Linda McMahon to Harvard’s president, cutting off federal funding for any new grants.

Worth reading in full. It is NUTS.

Mother,
Formed from the depths beneath your heart,
You know us from the inside out.
No deeds or seas or others
Could ever erase that.

A very important opinion piece, certainly something worth discussing in the senior cycle class #edchatie thanks @aisjclery.bsky.social for bringing it to my attention www.thejournal.ie/readme/conor...
Opinion: Watching Conor McGregor in The White House was dystopian and disturbing
Head of the Dublin Rape Crisis Centre, Rachel Morrogh, says it’s important now that everyone stands with survivors of sexual violence.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

It is not Zelensky and Ukraine that should be thanking the West.

The idea that JD Vance—who has never been to Ukaine and chalks up his knowledge to shit he read on the internet—believes he knows more about the situation in Ukraine than the man who has led it for the past 5.5 years is a perfect encapsulation of the havoc this administration is wreaking worldwide
ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about?

VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media

The last crop of Robber Barons gave back to the country in the form of philanthropy. I am reminded of the Carnegie libraries. This current crop of billionaires give nothing back. But in fact want more. Their insatiable greed is appalling.

A tough day for humanity, but this too will pass.
Resist division.
Build community.
Build resilience.
Build relationships.
Show your neighbour you care, and show those who have lost their hearts to anger and darkness that there is a better way.
No pasaràn.
Not now.
Not ever.

I have to mention before we finish that it is a scandal that the recent guidelines have not referenced the SENCO role. It needs to be recognised, standardised, formalised and supported. The current system is too onerous and the level of support for AEN teams varies from school to school! #edchatie

Nurture room. Trauma informed practices. Building relationships. Low arousal approaches. Making connections. Starting from where the child is at. Seeking to understand. Co-regulation leading to self regulation. #edchatie

"Fascism always fails" is beginning to sound like the 2025 version of "it'll be over by Christmas".
