It isn't surprising, but it needs to be said.

Teachers and American citizens can no longer rely on official government websites for information.

They are bluntly, grievously partisan.

The Trump regime’s constant onslaught of cruelty and mounting threats can be scary and demoralizing. That’s their intent.

The constitution gives us the freedom of assembly.

Silence in the face of injustice
or wrongdoing is tantamount to complicity.
When confronted with moral or ethical transgressions, individuals have a duty to speak out and take a stand.
