🎙️ For the past 5 years, Heather and her team @wtf-cobb.bsky.social have kept a close eye on how the district spends taxpayer dollars. From multi-million dollar contracts to questionable priorities, their work is all about making sure families know who is benefiting & how that impacts our schools.

🧵Cobb Schools claim they “won” a lawsuit. Here’s what they’re not telling you: ✅ The original map was ruled unconstitutional ❌ The case was dismissed only because the state drew a new map in 2024 💸 Cobb Schools spent ~$1.2 million in legal fees, your tax dollars, to protect political power

You file the reports. You speak up the chain. You follow the rules. And nothing changes. In Cobb, families and school workers are sounding the alarm — again and again — and the district keeps looking the other way. 🎙️ Not Bored of Education – Episode 5

Laura calls out the district’s political bias in back-to-school coverage. The focus should be on students and teachers, not just board members who align with leadership. 🎙️ Clip from Not Bored of Education – Episode 5

Labor Day reminds us: workers built this country. Supporting workers means standing up for basic fairness: safe workplaces, living wages, and the right to organize. Let’s keep standing up for the people who do the work. #LaborDay #WorkersRights

Andrew: “This isn’t a public meeting. They just meet in public.” Laura: “When you censor people like that, the whole idea of working together is gone.” Cutting off public comment doesn’t just limit speech—it removes community awareness. #NotBoredOfEducation #CobbSchools

Frey: And don't just say, this is about thoughts and prayers right now. These kids were literally praying. It was the first week of school. They were in a church.

Ten year old student who witnessed shooting: "I heard [shots] again. I just ran under the pew and then I covered my head. My friend Victor saved me though, because he laid on top of me. But he got hit... He's really brave, and I hope he's good in the hospital."

I know, It’s hard to feel patriotic when we watch rights being stripped away and communities silenced. But today is a reminder that true patriotism lives in the people who keep showing up. This 4th of July, we can honor those fighting to make America live up to its promise…for everyone.

On this day in 1865, enslaved people in Texas were notified by Union Civil War soldiers about the abolition of slavery. This was 2.5 years after the final Emancipation Proclamation which freed all enslaved Black Americans. #Juneteenth

Join us for a No Kings rally June 14th in Atlanta We’re taking a stand against authoritarianism & corruption. This national day of action is our response to a rising tide of threats; from attacks on free speech & political dissent to disregard for the courts & the rule of law.

“I used to think treating those who wronged us with empathy would change folks, but it only takes away their guilt” Look at me getting nuggets of wisdom from my ReelShort addiction 🫣. Don’t judge me for watching these little movies 🫠

If you’re wondering why young people are trending right it’s because youth orgs on the left are struggling to keep the lights on meanwhile TurningPoint and Charlie Kirk have enough money to waste on events in schools that vote 80% Democratic.

A white woman chased a small Black child at a public park calling him the N-slur over & over again. Another adult stepped in to stop the harassment while recording the incident. After a few exchanges, the woman left. Bigots online raised $200K+ for her in a single day. Racism is still lucrative.

Q: "How do you respond to Governor Newsom?" Sen. Van Hollen: "I think Americans are tired of elected officials or politicians who are all finger to the wind...Anybody who can't stand up for the Constitution and the right of due process doesn't deserve to lead."

Community members have been asking our Cobb County School Board for a town hall for years (especially regarding school safety). Now that they have hired Servius (which originally was to monitor our kids for violence), they were supposed to do a town hall on sex trafficking.

Hear me (for @indivisiblenma.bsky.social) and John from @50501ga.bsky.social talk about the Atlanta Hands Off! march and rally and what next steps look like: www.wabe.org/atlanta-orga...

Our Mar. 20 People’s Town Hall was energizing! Despite our GOP reps’ absence, we had a productive time with US Rep. Hank Johnson and GA Rep. Karen Lupton. Our message: We're ready for action, not just words. The takeaway: real change starts with us, the people. Thanks to all who participated!

AOC: If you are an LGBTQ kid or family, we cannot throw you under the bus in order to win an election. In this house, we stand together

Indivisible North Metro Atlanta calls on Senator Chuck Schumer to step aside as Minority Leader. Click below to read our full statement. @schumer.senate.gov @indivisible.org

This is blood-boiling. Charles Rogers was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam after being wounded three times leading the defense of a position. Google his name and the entry below comes up. When you click, you'll see the page has been deleted and the URL changed to include "DEI medal."

NEWS: After an emergency meeting of Indivisible groups across the country, Indivisible is officially calling on Senate Minority Leader Schumer to step down from his leadership position. indivisible.org/statements/i...

@statisticurban.bsky.social: “The DoD has removed the article on Charles Roger's Medal of Honor. He served in Vietnam. Despite being wounded three times in battle, rallied his troops & led them to victory in defense of Support Base Rita. Nixon presented his Medal. The url is changed to "deimedal.”

I think what is making everyone so angry isn’t just the cowardice of Senate Democrats, it’s their cowardice in comparison to the random normal person who runs for school board to oust a Moms for Liberty freak

Thank you Senators Warnock and Ossoff for your “no” vote on cloture. We are saddened by the outcome but we appreciate you taking a stand and hearing our voices. @warnock.senate.gov @ossoff.senate.gov

Cool so what happens if GOP attach a national abortion ban to a CR? You'll vote for that too? 🚮

This doesn’t surprise me. I mean, he said VP Harris wasn’t Black. He’s cruel and will weaponize folks’ fear/hate

GOVERNING is negotiating with the other side when you need 60 votes and you only have 53. Refusing to negotiate when you don’t have the votes is incompetence. That is why Republicans can’t govern.

💰 A golden parachute… at our expense? 💰 Laura breaks down the Cobb Schools superintendent’s golden parachute and why it raises major concerns as a taxpayer. Why is the district prioritizing huge payouts for leadership instead of putting that money back into classrooms?

re the previous repost: if they can disappear permanent residents they can disappear citizens
