This seems to be how the 'Mississippi Miracle' manifests as well: two decades of shaky growth in 4th grade scores that don't show up *at all* in 8th grade. Are curriculum/literacy policies and practices designed to get 3rd graders to pass a test or actually create readers?

The feeling is mutual!

Woah. Newsmax’s legal analyst just said Pete Hegseth and everyone involved in the illegal boat strike should be “prosecuted for a war crime.” They’ve even lost Newsmax on this one.

Off to spread the word...The Tyrants are Here!!! Do not comply in advance!

TAPPER: You're imposing a 10% on the Heard and MccDonald islands. They have zero human inhabitants. Why are you putting tariffs on islands entirely populated by penguins? ROLLINS: Whatever. Listen, the people leading this are serious, intentional, patriotic, the smartest I've ever worked with.

Today is the Trans Day of Visibility. This year, especially, we need to show our love and support for all folks and let it be known that we will NOT tolerate the intolerance of those who are trying to legislate other people's bodies.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

WTAF?! They will buy this so they can come here and not have to pay taxes, and the rest of us will get screwed. They won't pay taxes....he has made sure that the rich and businesses dont pay taxes.

I'm not in favor of my tax dollars being used this way www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

I feel so sick. Enough with the lies, enough with the games. They know exactly what they're doing. This is a neo-Nazi movement. Proudly so. The only reason they've kept it coded up until now was to take advantage of those who didn't want to believe it. No more looking away. Face up to what it is.

This is why Trump hates him.

New — US Department of Education Office for Civil Rights staff who were on the Equity committee were all placed on paid administrative leave last night because of the DEIA executive order. They received this email, a source in the dept. tells me:

Please note the date on this article: Jan 21. Trump is dangerous to us, the people of the United States, the people he is charged to protect. apnews.com/article/coas...

The past several days have proven without a shadow of a doubt that Project 2025 is real and underway. And those who warned America about it were right.

Cannot stop thinking about how Octavia Butler wrote a book in 1993 about climate change. It opens with deadly fires in LA in 2025. In the story, a fascist President has just won office with the campaign slogan "Make America Great Again." She was a modern day Nostradamus. If only we'd listened.

Close to a million migrants will be shielded from deportation for up to 18 months.

I’m assuming Matt Gaetz disclosed his illegal drug use on his application to purchase firearms, right? If not, hear the Republicans think that’s a serious crime that deserves serious consequences.
