(📢) MAJOR BREAKING NEWS: The Daily Beast publishes a sourced allegation that Trump has been a Russian spy since 1987 and then—possibly under some form of threat—deletes it.

I have a student whose reading improved two whole grade levels since September - from barely sounding out to almost ready for beginner chapter books - and I'm sending her to talk to every teacher who has ever taught her so they can all celebrate with her. She's about six feet tall today.

DOGE is about to receive full access to IRS taxpayer data. On its own, that’s horrific. But it gets worse. The guy with access reposted content by Nick Fuentes (who advocates killing Jews) & says he was inspired to join DOGE by Ron Unz (an antisemitic Holocaust denier). This is beyond dangerous.
