So heartbreaking and infuriating. I work in education, me team supports 24 libraries. Our goal is and has always been to help educate students. How does anyone cheer the gutting of education. You know those were some hard working folks who lost their jobs and it just breaks my heart. No one wins.

You have my deepest respect and admiration. That being said, if you vote to pass this bill today, I will make it my business to donate and campaign for the Dem opposing you in the next election. The GOP holds the majority. If they can’t pass this bill it is on them. @captmarkkelly.bsky.social

It is crazy to watch the DOE get gutted. Not like I didn't know it was coming but being in education and with a lot of friends in education, it hurts. I was hoping to retire in 3yrs but hey, I might be out of job before that (early retirement?).

Can we please kick the realty TV stars out of DC because between Trump and Duffy, I just can't handle this level of stupidity and racism. Maybe they could take a certain South African with them as well. Just a suggestion. 🤷‍♀️

It is the oddest thing I've heard from people in my world who have said, if they have money, they must be smart. no, they don't, they can be idiots and Muskrat and the Orange Clown are not smart, they just have money and they want more.

The Department of Ed has a form to snitch on DEI policies in schools. I’d be a shame if we broke it with thousands of responses… enddei.ed.gov

I cannot believe how Vance and 🍑🤡 treated Zelensky. He is trying to keep his country free and this is how you treat a man who has fought off Russian aggression? I'm not a fan of Reagan but he must be rolling in his grave.

10 years ago I had the flu, I felt awful, I mean, SO awful. If there was an "itis" to get, I got it; laryngitis, bronchitis, etc. Only time I've felt worse, was COVID. I swore after that, I would get my flu shot every year. I can't believe they are pulling the plug. Flu kills, folks!

Day 27 of Black History Month quote from Mr Baldwin is a stark reminder to us that we are all human beings. We need to treat each other with dignity, respect, honor. In our pain, anguish & disgust at what is happening, remember Mr Baldwin was an educated black gay man He knew all the hatred too well

🧵RFKJr said the measles outbreak that led to the death of a child is “not that unusual” (links below). That’s a lie. It IS unusual because we have the ability to have NO measles outbreaks. But with falling vaccine rates, we are seeing yearly outbreaks of increasing size (links below).

For those of you who watched the video of an Idaho woman experiencing handmaid‘s tale treatment, now is the time to decide what you would do in that situation—whether it's you or whether you're nearby when this happens to someone else. We are in a moment where we all have to decide who we are.
