www.washingtonpost.com/education/20... in case you thought this couldn’t possibly get even dumber.

www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202... They left all the crazy out of this headline. Wonder why?

Trump is not capable of even pretending to understand the meaning of this day.

The corruption is just plane obvious.

Public pressure works! Keep it going.

Today’s sermon asked how your faith is leading you to help the stranger to flourish. If you want to take away people’s health care, and take away people’s food… it’s not Christ whom you worship.

Three years ago today, 19 fourth-graders and two teachers were killed at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas. 17 others were injured. Today and every day, my heart is with Uvalde. We owe it to them to build a future where every kid makes it home from school.

Converting the $400 million Qatari jet into a new Air Force One for Trump would require installing multiple top-secret systems, cost over $1 billion, and take years to complete, according to three aviation experts who spoke to NBC News.

www.washingtonpost.com/business/202... Silly me! I keep thinking all Americans should be “the president’s people”. Or that he should be “the people’s president.”

There is nothing his grubby fingers won’t touch. wapo.st/3EKaOQq

These names were people. Kids in classrooms. Elders in grocery stores. Dancers, teachers, moms, dads. All killed with assault weapons. Today, the Assault Weapons Ban is being reintroduced in Congress. Because the killing hasn’t stopped, and neither have we. Ban assault weapons. Now.

@washingtonpost.com instead of a headline about what Harvard may lose, how about one about what intellectual freedom may win?

Trump isn’t “playing chess”. But that doesn’t mean we aren’t the sacrificial pawns.

This is horrifyingly correct.

Breaking: Congressional Republican suggests Elon Musk should be deported.

Trump thinks he can declare Biden’s pardons void the same way Michael Scott declared bankruptcy.

This is shameful. The Navajo Code Talkers were Marines and heroes who helped this country secure victory in WWII. We owe them a debt that can never be repaid. Trump can’t erase their history just because he feels like it. www.axios.com/local/salt-l...

I wish this was unbelievable. It’s all too believable. Their contribution cannot be overstated, and indeed it was the very fact that they were able to speak a language OTHER THAN ENGLISH that made them heroes. www.azcentral.com/story/opinio...

This is so symbolic 😳

I don’t understand the logic that “letting the government shut down would give Trump and Musk more power”. Short of beheading citizens, what weren’t they already doing?

Linda McMahon last week: “We can give schools research to improve” This week: *fires everyone at the National Centers for Education Statistics, Education Evaluation & Regional Assistance, and Education Research* DOGE: *cuts almost $900 million in research contracts*

www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202... Just like they previously insisted there wouldn’t be any cuts to Medicare or Social Security.

Trump says billionaire Musk shouldn’t “suffer” because of DOGE, but is completely unbothered by the fact that thousands of American citizens losing their jobs and health care have and will suffer because of DOGE.

Sickened by Linda McMahon’s assertion that they are “keeping the good people” after laying off almost half of the dedicated employees of the Department of Education.

Ukraine fighting for its very existence against a ruthless superpower; military and civilian casualties exceed 400,000. “Bone Spurs” Trump: Is Ukraine prepared to do difficult things?

Trump and Musk are gutting Medicaid just to bankroll tax breaks for billionaires

The guy who brought you January 6 has thoughts about how bad “illegal protests” are. There are no “illegal protests” in this country. With the notable exception of January 6.

Trump set to order closure of Department of Education in part because of its “controlling American education through Federal programs and dollars.” That’s rich. Indeed, their every accusation is an admission.

When Trump said he would bring down prices on day 1, I thought he meant eggs not the stock market.

Mourning in America. An unseemly display of arrogance, ignorance, and belligerence last night.
