@durbin.senate.gov and @duckworth.senate.gov, I am saddened by your votes.
Kirk published a list of professors he deemed undesirables.
A professor named on it received death and rape threats.
This was the type of politics Kirk stood for.
He may not have smashed a trans kid's head against a wall, but he incited those who did.
The Senate just voted to honor that.

Any Senate Democrat who voted for this egregious alteration of history is a disgrace.

For any Taylor and Travis fans from Chiefs Kingdom, you need these pillows! I am not connected to this shop in any way, but just want to show everyone how cute these are. Buy them at workofwhimsy.com. The maker is a retired Hallmark artist, Tammy Haddix. ❤️❤️

It’s easy to see if you’re being governed or ruled. Are your tax dollars solving issues or causing oppression?

On this day Aug 4, 1944: Anne Frank was arrested after 2 years in hiding.
Not by monsters in uniforms but by neighbors.
Today, governors threaten political enemies with removal.
ICE raids target families.
LGBTQ+ people are banned from bookshelves.
Never again means nothing if you stay silent.

New teachers: Start simple! Pick 3 daily routines.
Write them down.
Visualize what they look & sound like.
Master these first before adding more. Quality over quantity wins!

New teachers: Design your lesson structure NOW!
Start/end consistently, practice smooth transitions, create weekly rhythms. Monday=goals, Fri=celebration. Keep structure but vary activities daily. Strong routines = confident teaching! 🍎

Now you are taking hard working people off the streets, separating parents from kids, taking people from immigration court who are following the rules, & putting the military on our streets…this isn’t America.
