"How can you be against a balanced budget?" Answer: We are NOT against a balanced budget. Balancing the budget is NOT what DOGE, nor tRump are doing. You live in an alternate universe, Sir.
Letter to Rep. Obernolte: Please do your job & push back against these draconian measures that are moving our beloved country, the beacon of democracy & hope for the world-at least before 2025-further away from democratic principles and towards rule by dictator. Stand up and be counted for democracy
How can a simple statement like “every one is welcome here” possibly be offensive? It is literally what JC taught (I am not a Christian but agree with many of his teachings).
I think fElon has aspirations to do more than run doge for tRump. fElon takes more power to himself every day. fElon and Putin also have phone calls. I wonder if they are plotting to replace tRump once he has totally destroyed the U.S. Putin would love to see a foreigner running the U.S.
It's like the US is a snow-globe that someone picked up and shook until all the pieces broke up and are being tossed in the whirlwind, and once it's put down all the pieces will gradually set themselves right again. we're still in the tossed around stage, but eventually it'll be put back and settle.
Every single time #news reports goes out, the phrase #Trump, the #convictedrapist and #fraudster" should be mentioned exactly, & a mug shot flashed on the screen.

Except ‘our once beautiful country’ never existed, not for all the ✌🏼✌🏽✌🏾✌🏿🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️⚧️ folks. That’s the point. He needs to go and we ALL need to shoulder the responsibility of showing him the door.
@chrislhayes.bsky.social This is happening to teachers around the country. I have a friend teaching in Vancouver, WA (near Portland, OR) who is being harassed by the principal for similar reasons such as celebrating black history month and making kiddos with diverse families feel loved and welcome.
I’m an Australian teacher, we are celebrating Harmony Day with the kids tomorrow. The motto for Harmony Day is “Everyone Belongs.” My heart breaks for fellow teachers in the U.S. That teacher is a hero for standing up for the kids in her school.
American values have been destroyed by the Trump/Musk administration now. We’ve got a 35x convicted felon and a South African billionaire techy dismantling USA values and departments daily! The seniors here are in big trouble, as are the poor. #TaxTheRich
Trump/Musk could not have come to power if US values weren't already in the trash. Trump is a convicted felon, with indictments for far more serious, national security endangering crimes, and he was still re-elected. 50 years ago a President resigned in shame for far less.
20 years ago a person with that kind of record wouldn't have made the ballot. You can maaaybe excuse the first Trump presidency by saying people didn't really know who they were voting for, although his reputation was there for all to see. We knew this time, and we made the morally bankrupt choice
Way to go Sarah! Your strength has taught your students a valuable lesson that they will never forget. I'm hoping they can be the generation that ends racism. Your students will never forget you. Impressive!!
@chrislhayes.bsky.social this is one of the best pieces i’ve seen about resistance and speaking out! Thank you!!! You are a welcome voice in this dark time!
Every American needs to put out flags with messages of togetherness. Unity builds the path to freedom. We will win. We will take our country back.
An the people shall not be subjected to this tyranny ever again. We the people will bring decide on our own future. No more free rein. Party's over
Thanks for covering this! Seeing other Americans protest will create a nationwide movement once people feel validated in their anger about losing our American way of life and protections.

It's a shame that big institutions with multi billion dollar endowments are knuckling to the anti DEI rhetoric, while middle school teachers are standing up
Seeing impressive pushback in traditionally red states. Missouri, Idaho, Utah, Tennessee, Texas. Keep up this momentum. The red narrative wilts under pressure.
"They don't have to admit they were wrong, they just have to see that they were lied to." And that's easy to show.
Great. Another act of defiance is to resist by getting on the phone or e-mail and telling your reps in DC what you think. It only takes a few minutes and it doesn't cost any money. We don't need money in politics. We just need people to participate. https://www.nationalfinancialplan.com
In just days, Democrats have a chance to SHRINK the GOP House majority and RUIN Trump’s plans!

I would hope that all teachers are greeting their students with positive affirmations while they are at school.Constitutional sentiments like equality and justice for all are said in the pledge that the kids recite at the beginning of the school day.I would hope that it applies throughout their day.
bad thing is that *so are* they, meeting the moment. And their bringing the DOJ, FBI & the AG. more like bringing the weaponized DOJ, weaponized FBI & Yes, AG weaponized her abilities too.
ANOTHER inarticulate, illogical, unqualified white guy 🙄. The ONLY unqualified assholes I’ve ever had the misfortune of dealing with are white dudes who clearly were hired/promoted cuz they’re white & male.
Just a reminder that REPUBLICANS control every branch of government. To mention the other party as not stopping this fascism is unfair and not at all helpful.
This is true, but where is the outrage for the GOP not fighting back? They are all a bunch of weak people that are afraid to stand up to Trump because they may lose their cushy jobs.
I am trying really hard not to. I have hope in one year and two months we win back Congress and vote against everything. And in meantime waiting for the McDonald’s and ketamine and a freak couch 🛋️ accident do their part to end this
Nope not all people are welcome, look how they treat republican. what you really mean is that Only Neo Nazi's Press and it's week minded victims working with your side are welcome. or people that think in a toxic way.
Monster are worse when they take way the right to choose after they loose.
I grow up & had a two faced teacher.
I got every answer right & so did my black friend. but worded differently. My black friend got a A+ & I a none-black person got a F+. But she said I fail cause I wasn't black. this is why can't trust teachers. Cu that Teacher had stuff like that in her class too.
The teacher was black too & this happened many times that year with the same teacher & this in the 2000's. it was the same teacher that said I was draw swastika on me desk, when they where hearts (IK 10yo me was Dumb)
I this is why can't trust anyone that run to the media, with there 'story's
One possible way, leave the banner up until the last week, then when you take it down remove every sign, notice, poster or decoration and leave nothing except desks and chairs. Total gulag decor to make the point clear.
If we didn’t want teachers to be brave and take a stand for all of their students, maybe we shouldn’t have trained the teachers to take bullets for them.
Democratic leaders are holding town halls in red state districts cause the Republican reps are afraid to. Follow @kenmartin.bsky.social as he posts the info where this is happening and reps that are holding the townhalls
Coming next, these Nazis will insist they replace that poster with one saying Only White Straight Christian Men Welcome Here. (Translation: paedophiles, hypocrites and mass murderers).
The black text is telling as well. I have taught in Texas for almost a decade, and we speak in code down here. My ally symbol is hidden amongst a million other things, but my students who “know” know I’m a safe space.
Your story on the Western State teacher was buoying, an inspiration. She reminds us that we're gonna have to rebuild this nation from the ground, up. 💪✊
Exactly! That’s why Dems aren’t really pushing back and no titan of industry is gonna stop raking in the money. They feel the change in the American people and they’re terrified. We are stronger together and we have the power in numbers 💪🏼🙋🏼♀️
This sounds like the segregated school system I was raised in, in South Africa. The only multiracial schools were the catholic schools which I had the privilege of attending.
The parents need to support their children and teacher. They can show their support by joining their children’s’ demonstrations, calling the Governor of Idaho, the School Board, its Trustees, the School Principal, local radio talk shows, write letters to newspapers.
Open to interpretation? How on Earth could this “Everyone is Welcome Here” poster possibly be interpreted in a negative manner?! Perhaps if you’re a blatant racist. Good for her—and her students— for pushing back. Please do not give in.
As a teacher, I can tell you that left before I started teaching almost a decade ago. We have to be INSANELY cautious about how we carry ourselves, how we teach, what we have in our classroom etc.
My question for the News Agencies is why you are continuing to hold back. Focusing on individual stories and not addressing bigger picture? How can you have the peoples Trust if you ignore the Hitler and Putin connections to what Trump is doing? Your fears are being passed on to the country.
This woman is a massive hero in a country that seems to have lost its mind. Love my American friends so much, they’re standing up to this craziness. ♥️♥️♥️🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Defiance not a good word , duty a better fit , defiance about what ? Ain't our duty to protect democratic freedom enshrined in the American constitution ? I am not defiant , i am securing freedom for 330 million people and from there ..THE WORLD
This is so horrible to me. I teach young children who speak many languages and how can someone believe that they are not welcome here? I just don’t understand. I won’t be taking down my posters.
The lesson here is the indispensability of perseverance. Endurance in activism is not merely about physical presence but also about the mental and emotional fortitude to continue advocating for justice, even when the odds seem insurmountable.
Mayor Michelle Wu stood up for the City of Boston tonight in her State of the City speech! She is a bright light getting things done for the people she serves!
Do you know what happened to the people in Chelsea arrested this morning by ICE? When all they wanted to do was work “day labor” jobs? Did Mayor Wu stand by them in the so-called sanctuary city?
Is anyone meeting the moment to speak out against arson? What the left is doing to Tesla is the definition of fascism.
No one is advocating for racism. Let’s teach kids that even if people disagree with you, you still must treat them respectfully … a basic lesson Dems forgot a long time ago.
Boise is fairly purple. A lot of us here in Idaho SRENT as red as people think. Most younger people I know here are left, progressive, or centralists. Even the younger conservatives are like…wtf is this shit.
Saw your show tonight, Chris, and I’m of course appalled. Here’s the web address for anyone wanting to order a “Everyone is Welcome Here” tshirt. https://brigadescreenprinting.com
They can’t print them fast enough to meet the demand!
Over 8000 “Everyone is Welcome Here” ordered as of yesterday. Students & teachers plan to wear them to school Monday when they return from Spring Break.
I cheer this teacher on. I've been to Idaho a lot, it being so close to home. I know this teacher is dealing with tons of brillant red men and their complaint wives to make sure their children have a better life. 🐱
I am from Boise and my family lives in that area. Unfortunately, this story is just the tip of the iceberg of the culture war raging in Boise. Ppl have moved there from CA, WA, TX etc thinking it’s a Mecca for racism and the maga way. Once they move there, they realize Boise is/was a liberal city
but those who have moved there are working overtime to change the DNA of the city. It used to be a sister to PDX, SEA, DEN and SLC and now it’s a monstrous version of Texas where reality and empathy don’t exist. I hate going back to Boise for visits now - and I used to be so proud and happy to go.🫣
I have nothing to add to that statement! Ha!! … it used to be a quiet town of Mercedes and Volvos and old broken pickup trucks covered in dirt from the foothills. 🤷♂️
I moved out of the state in late 2009 — back when Californians (especially) were trying to very quietly assimilate into Treasure Valley society. Now people proudly wave the Trump/maga flag and welcome eachother like they’re native born Idahoans… only arriving months before. It’s crazy.
Exactly. I'm in Boise too and this has been the only bright spot of news that has made me not ashamed to live here. I'm a former teacher and don't know any teachers staying here anymore...no respect or backing up of any teacher by the boards. Disgraceful.
Cons are disgusting degrading violent animals.
Liberals are disgusting egotistical cowards who rely on corrupt politicians to get to sleep at night.
Religion & politics turns nice people into judgemental sacks of violent garbage.

I wonder if a poster had been made for each of those hand colours separately and the question asked, which ones can be put up, where he'd draw the line?
I believe the most insidious thing about that school ruling is the long termism.
History shows us that suppressing the education of the masses makes a population more malleable. They want her and other teachers to quit and for there to be a shortage.
We need active members of military & law enforcement to uphold their constitutional oath to preserve, protect & defend the constitution. That means STAND STRONG AGAINST TRUMP, MUSK AND THE OLIGARCHIC COUP NOW IN PROGRESS. Now is the time to be a hero HONOR YOUR OATH and do not follow illegal orders.
I saw this story. Thank you Chris Hayes and your team for doing this. What can those of us who do not live in Idaho can do for her, a brave, stalwart, decent, dedicated teacher every one should want to teach their kids? The support of her students says everything. Hopefully their parents join in.
Parents supporting the teacher is the key. School districts don’t care if teachers complain but they don’t like parent complaints. They will ignore teachers but not parents who can make their lives miserable. I hope she receives their support.
Quoting a teenager I overheard at a gas station in this school district;
“I’ve never seen my dad cry…”
Worker; “ehh it will pass. If you are US citizens you are fine.”
“It’s getting old… kids will surround you and chant ‘If you’re brown get out of town.’ And it’s really terrifying.”
And before that was said he was talking about being at work and someone calling him slurs but his supervisor walked up and did nothing. Hearing that kid go, “Why wouldn’t my supervisor protect me?”
I could see his hurt that one of the two staff the kid knew just didn’t care with a “but Trump…”
Also the sister school district mourning the loss of a 22yo cis white male SPEd parasocial school worker “unsubscribing” when the cops banging at his door to arrest him for CP & CSA. The school his mother works at going “Guess we will never know the truth. Let’s put together a cele of life.”
First hand knowledge with friends with kids who went to the school… this guy was an absolute monster.
There was enough evidence on 2 of several electronic devices to lock him up forever. Preying on very young Special Education kids who can hardly communicate… yet… SD, get that kind poster gone!
Lastly! Sarah is an amazing and kind human! We went to middle school & graduated high school together. I am proud to see such a wonderful human standing up against these ridiculous bullies. WestAda is a joke… & the hell people endure surrounded by this hateful rhetoric is needlessly cruel.
Well, the brown ones for sure, but how will we know which of he hands are gay, or trans, or heaven forbid WOKE. Woke is so bad I donʻt even know what it means.
Simply, Woke is not Asleep. Our country is quickly being led by the real walking dead. They have no souls no hearts, no brain. Just look at them. Just listen to them talk. It's obvious.
His weird and troubling answer was to say that it was political because not everyone thinks that everyone should be welcome--and specifically he said the problem was all those skin tones of the hands on the poster. He SAID THAT!
All those minorities that voted for this (or didn't care to avert it from happening), how does it feel like now and how much worse do they think it will become? Amazing...
Were programs for undocumented kids in school shut down under Biden?
Did Biden deport a kid going through cancer treatment because his parents were undocumented?
Did Biden arrest Native Americans and try to deport them as though they were some unknown brown people from another country?
Were they kidnapped by ICE and deported? Were they? Because this is happening now with no criminal record, just because they support pro-Palestine views or say anything anti-Trump.
Thread: ExUSrep Adam Kinzinger voted WITH trump 95% 1st term. He was so dumb/drunk he fired AR15 at METAL TARGET only 10 yards away & bullets hit & injured a reporter! Gun experts said Adam was STUPID! And he will NOT LEAVE REPUBLICAN PARTY TODAY! Not even b an INDY! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adam_Kinzinger
It’s so sad that standing firm for what’s decent and good has turned into a brave stance in any location. But now we all need to follow her modeling—the only way this nightmare worsens is if good people lose the courage of their convictions
We all need to fight back… physically if necessary. Trump is appointing imbeciles, closing the department of education, letting Musk have all of the information about our finances and our history within the United States. You know they’re sharing it with Russia. It’s time for this to stop.
This horror show won't stop until the military step in and stage a coup and place the traitorous criminal regime behind bars & then organise free and fair elections. We non Americans are watching in real time the collapse of an empire.
Huh, looks like the only thing you are meeting is the all you can eat buffet…damn bro…all you have to do is maintain your image and you can’t even do that
Amen, Chris! This is one of those “small” stories that stuck in my gut. I’m so happy to hear that she is fighting this! And maybe Idaho schools should just say it out and put a sign in front of their schools saying “Everyone is not welcome here”. Cause THAT is what they are really saying .
Anyone who believes the international embarrassment of the present Trump administration isn't about racism hasn't been paying attention since he announced his first run. For that, I am deeply ashamed.
I’m sure for every Christian like you there is another Christian out there who thinks the way you practice your faith is wrong and they way they practice theirs is right.
Of course thats true but the issue is it was a broad brush swipe and I have a problem with “if you’re this you must be that.” Full disclosure, I’ve been guilty of it too w/those who’s political views aren’t shared by me and so I need to be mindful of who I also lump into a pile.
In Dutch: “ iedereen is welcome, het maakt geen fuck uit of je nu wit, geel , zwart of pimpelpaars met gouden sterretjes bent. We vegen allemaal na het piepen onze kont af! “ I stand with Sarah Inama.

You should ask your buddy Chuck, what is he doing to meet the moment.

I remember way back when I was a kid at McKinley Elementary, we were indoctrinated (in a good way) to not be racists.
The lesson was, "Don't be prejudiced."
After we said the pledge to the flag, teachers taught us that racism was un-American.
This isn't the time to have a coward in leadership. Schumer needs to resign.
"They don't have to admit they were wrong, they just have to see that they were lied to." And that's easy to show.

Angela Merkel did that to Germany and what a disaster that has been.
France is right to ask us to return it, now that it is inappropriate.
History shows us that suppressing the education of the masses makes a population more malleable. They want her and other teachers to quit and for there to be a shortage.
Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot and Mao did the same.
