Turning Point USA calls me and other teachers “radical” for teaching honest history. But here’s the truth: THEY are the indoctrinators. They don’t teach inquiry. They don’t teach evidence. 1/

@rweingarten.bsky.social’s new column expresses gratitude for the helpers in our communities—those who fight for a better life for all. "You, the helpers, give me immense hope that together we can reclaim that promise of America and build a better future for everyone." www.aft.org/column/grati...

My heart goes out to the people of Australia at Bondi Beach. At least 12 were killed at a Hanukkah celebration. Antisemitism is surging globally. Full stop. Blaming Jews everywhere for the heinous actions of the Israeli government is antisemitism. 1/

Words can’t express my rage. At least 2 students on lockdown at Brown University already survived mass shootings. Zoe Weissman survived Parkland in 2018. Mia Tretta was shot in the stomach in Santa Clarita in 2019 and watched her best friend be murdered. And now…again.

Tonight’s repeal of Utah’s ban of teacher collective bargaining is a historic step in the right direction to return respect and dignity to the workers of Utah. Here's my full statement. www.aft.org/press-releas...

Today marks 50 years of IDEA. Today we celebrate this landmark civil rights law and recommit ourselves to the work ahead. IDEA is both a milestone and a mandate; our collective responsibility is to fulfill its promise for the next generation.

In 2025, attention is our most valuable commodity. It wins elections, fuels movements, and shapes what people actually see. So the fact that you spend even a sliver of yours here? It means everything. 1/ substack.com/@saribethros...

We’ve all gotten to know of Elle’s tremendous work during the campaign. There couldn’t be a better choice there. Having worked around Dean at state I also want to sing his praises as a talented leader and a good choice for this job.

We are upset, like many, that the ACA tax credits are not restored in this “deal” to reopen the govt. But let’s be clear why: the Rs refused to budge as the hunger & aviation crises worsened. Let’s be clear who is hurting working families. The AFT will keep fighting www.aft.org/press-releas...

Dems have won Va with a moderate, have won NJ with a liberal and NYC with a progressive- it’s all about fighting for working people to deal with the cost of living and a repudiation of the cruelty, cronyism and abuses of Trump, Trumpism and his billionaire crew.

It's official. Nearly 7 million people. Today is the single largest day of protest in American history. Americans from all corners of the country are standing up and saying #NoKings. This is what peaceful, patriotic protest looks like.

indoctrinating them with US History all day every day, even Halloween 🎃

I’m a Jewish New Yorker and if @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social wins the election I’ll be moving out onto the streets of NYC to find my way to the nearest victory party.

While Cuomo’s campaign is instilling fear & stoking hate, Mamdani’s campaign is bringing people together & making New Yorkers feel hopeful. I’m going with hope & unity. Have a nice day.

I live in NYC and I’m Jewish. This is just so embarrassing and frankly dangerous to watch. @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social will be an incredible mayor for all New Yorkers, including Jewish New Yorkers. 1/

Well-known internet personality Robby Roadsteamer makes fun of ICE and calls them Nazis. They prove his point & come out to arrest him for trespassing after shoving him over the property line. Just like Russia, if you protest the regime, men with guns come to take you away. youtu.be/HHTuJ7P8YiM?...

So, they said the plan was to eliminate the Department of Education. And that’s what they are doing. I’m angry like everyone else who actually cares about kids and public schools but posting hysterical videos about it won’t change it. 1/
