Starting to grade final exams and can’t get over the fact that so many students don’t know the difference between “led” and “lead.” I had no idea graphite was responsible for so many historical events?! lol

This is a desecration and an abomination. First he posts an AI video of himself wearing a crown dumping shit on the heads of Americans, then he starts tearing down part of the White House for his Mar-a-Lago style ballroom.

This current American presidential administration is run by people who are quite obviously mentally ill, and we need to start talking about that.

The remarks weren’t “about Charlie Kirk,” they were about how this administration is using Kirk’s death as an excuse to shut down critics … and they responded by proving him completely correct.

If this isn’t a dictator move, I don’t know what is. We were warned, and over half of the electorate decided not to listen. Absolutely shameful.

Ten years ago today Maddie crossed the rainbow bridge. 🌈 It seems unfathomable that it’s been that long; I still think of her regularly and miss her so much. She was my birthday buddy, my smart little cookie, my “Little Miss Madeline Marie.” 💔🐾 #corgi

The US could see a 30-40% decline in new international student enrollment, resulting in nearly $7 billion in lost revenue and more than 60,000 fewer American jobs. https://www.nafsa.org/fall-2025-international-student-enrollment-outlook-and-economic-impact

There’s no doubt in my mind this was for political reasons.
CBS canceled Colbert’s show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery.
America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons.
Watch and share his message.

Netanyahu has spent the better part of two decades trying to strong arm the United States into an unprovoked war against Iran and finally found a president stupid enough to do it for him. Unbelievable.
