What're we doing here? "In the 'return to duty' directive, officials acknowledged they're facing a sizable caseload of civil rights complaints, and they underscored a need to utilize every resource at the government’s disposal to work through them." www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

Those who never missed a chance to hurt or demean will never be heard of again: Gone the people who corrupted the courts, gone the people who cheated the poor, gone the people who victimized the innocent. -Isaiah 29

"The moral measure of an economy is how the “least of these” experience it. That’s how we measure whether the economy is healthy and morally functional."

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

This is how our government has been corrupted: 1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office 2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor 3) Donors make huge profit 4) Repeat We must get big money out of politics. It is the root of our dysfunction.

Here’s a disheartening glimpse inside Dept of Ed—lost morale, locked out of accounts,etc. “What is being done to the systems that support kids, students, families, adult learners and our country’s future is worse than anything they can do to us.” www.theguardian.com/education/20...

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Only 50 years....

The Trump administration is breaking the law by transferring critical work to federal agencies that lack the expertise to lead education policy. Congress must immediately intervene to stop this illegal restructuring and protect our students' right to an education.

ICYMI: I took a shot at explaining why Democrats have been slow to put forward a positive vision for education—and the opportunity there if they do. We need to resist the urge to make policy on—rather than with—parents and educators. With comments from @rweingarten.bsky.social & others.

Donald Trump's plan to dismantle the Department of Education doesn't streamline or reform education - it abandons America's students. Tell your lawmakers to protect public education for all.

What’s happening now with Trump’s plan to disperse the Dept of Education isn’t about slashing red tape. Teachers know how to make the federal role more effective, efficient and supportive of real learning—if only the administration would listen. www.aft.org/press-releas...

"Wiggins says that the gravedigging was so traumatising that no one talked during the day, except for the few who would pray over the graves and some who quietly cried."

Doom to you who legislate evil, who make laws that make victims— Laws that make misery for the poor, that rob my destitute people of dignity, Exploiting defenseless widows, taking advantage of homeless children. -Isaiah 10

If you’re ok with vouchers being used for ski trips or piano lessons but not ok with SNAP benefits being used for pizza or cupcakes, it’s not the use of public money you have a problem with. It’s that you think wealthy people deserve perks and poor people deserve to be poor.

I love how Rep. Joe Neguse reframed this question.

What?! I only help those who like me? What kind of a leader is this?!

Good morning, beloved. You cannot save the world. But you can help. Today is a great day to overcome evil with good.

When did making kids go hungry become a Christian value?

"But business and education don't mix. Schools like this one focus on marketing their "innovations" rather than on applying tested pedagogy..." Read the whole thread. 🧵👀

SNAP is not the reason your taxes are high. SNAP recipients don’t need to “just go get a job”. Most of them work. The rest are disabled, elderly, children or caregivers. People need & deserve assistance Your taxes fund wars and tax cuts for the ultra rich Be mad about that

One of my hotter takes is someone trying to save men and also win back the working class is to increase teachers and care workers pay; run a big marketing campaign to rebrand them as good union jobs, & get more men in those roles.

The average age of U.S. homebuyers is now 56, up from 49 last year. In 1981, the year trickledown economics began, it was 31.

$40 billion to bailout Argentina $250 million for a White House ballroom Who knows how much wasted to deploy the National Guard where there’s no need But the Agriculture Department says there’s no money for SNAP-which feeds 42 million Americans The Trump administration doesn’t care if we all die

The president is tearing down the White House to build himself a tacky gold ballroom to celebrate his 80th birthday. I'm adding water to my lip gloss before I go teach middle school students how to read. What hellscape world have I fallen into?
