Every time I hear him speak, I remember Canada picked an economist trained at Oxford, and Mexico chose a physicist with a PhD. While we chose a racist, sexual predator with the ethics of a bankrupt carnival barker, because electing a woman was a step too far.

The top 10% of richest Americans own 87% of stocks. The top 1% alone own roughly half of all stocks. It's worth pointing out once again that the stock market is not the economy.

School districts are rushing to adopt "one chatbot per child" models, but decades of research shows learning is fundamentally social. Here’s why isolating students with AI tutors may undermine the classroom interactions that actually support brain development.

The ‘one chatbot per child’ model for AI in classrooms conflicts with what research shows: Learning is a social process
AI tutors are often held up as an ideal, but prioritizing individualized teaching can detract from the benefits of learning in social environments.

It’s interesting that protests all across America were peaceful and violence free. It wasn’t just protests in ‘blue’ states. It was all states. I’m in deep red Florida. No violence here. No violence anywhere. Guess we’re not the crazy people they tried to convince people we are.

If you are protesting this weekend. Do so peacefully. Do so thoughtfully. Trump is hoping you don’t. He is seeking a reason to crack down harder. Do not give him one. Continue to speak out. Continue to use your voice.
