“Republicans are over here being straight-up mercenaries,” Longwell said. “Democrats give everybody Fridays off and talk about work-life balance.” She apologized for yelling into the phone. Democrats “are not built for when the fascists come." www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

Damn right.

It turns out that when the good guys do have guns they still get shot in the back by Federal thugs.

Pope Leo’s top U.S. ally — Cardinal Joseph Tobin — calls on Congress to defund ICE.

The MAGA movement and this administration’s hypocrisy knows no bounds…

This used to be the very thing conservatives claimed to be against — masked federal agents, uninvited and unwanted by the state, killing American citizens in the street for practicing their 1st and 2nd Amendment rights.

Listen to Christy Pettis and Terry Wyberg talk about making connections between whole numbers and fractions! The conversation shed light on the way a simple routine can help kids build bridges between whole numbers and fractions. www.mathlearningcenter.org/blog/case-ch...

Insightful conversation with some great suggestions for making turn and talks more effective. www.mathlearningcenter.org/blog/improvi...

Chris Murphy: "This is a country that's falling apart because Trump is in the middle of an authoritarian takeover. We're not on the verge of an authoritarian takeover. We're in the middle of it ... I have no moral obligation to vote for a budget that literally funds the destruction of our democracy"

Great Conversation! Kim really unpacked the power of the routine and the way teachers can maximize impact for students! www.mathlearningcenter.org/blog/i-have-...

As a person who lives in Portland (photo from this morning), I call 100% bullshit on this. The idea that Portland is “war torn” by “riots” is absolutely absurd.

In a Bridges® classroom, students lead. They discuss, collaborate, and share ideas as they build math confidence together.

And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes. We’ll be back next week with another edition of 60 Minutes.

This is worth a read. The way these guys are weilding power to evoke fear should be a signal for people to connect and support one another. Otherwise, they are counting on fear to enable this type of encroachment on civil libertes to go unchallenged. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Really interesting read…

Feels pretty accurate.

A fantastic conversation with my friend and colleague, Tisha Jones, about engaging with families and caregivers on the topics of assessment and homework! #iteachmath www.mathlearningcenter.org/blog/tisha-j...

💯 Dems should also commit to a specific position: Trump has not honored the promises and agreements of his predecessors and we will not honor his. If you're gullible enough to trust an assurance from Trump, understand that it is gone the moment he is.

Like, really? Is the man trying to raise inflation and depress consumer spending?!

This is alarming, and at the same time has a “what did you expect would happen?” quality that I have to admit, makes it hard to feel empathy for the folks being impacted….

THIS IS A KIDNAPPING. AN ABDUCTION. A DISAPPEARING. Language matters more than ever.

From an operational security perspective, this is the highest level of fuckup imaginable. These people cannot keep America safe.

Horrific, and a total moral breakdown.

Currently reading The Ministry For The Future. Really great book!

Again, we’ve literally elected the Once-Ler from the Lorax as president. The time we will lose to mitigate climate change is a reckoning that’s going to be very painful…

“I’m doing good things,” I tell myself as I delete the military service of a dead woman. “I’m still a good person.”

The lack of long term strategic thinking is astounding… www.nytimes.com/2025/03/22/u...
