Like so many people, I was glued to @NASA Artemis II coverage, so naturally I crocheted @Astro_Christina! As a careers adviser I talk a lot with my students about role models...but we never really grow out of needing them...we all benefit from people who make us dream bigger!🚀🧶

Donald Trump is so disrespectful to the rule of law and to judges… he prompted the Chief Justice to issue a rare statement. Impeaching judges for political reasons is a no-go.

🎄Xmas special: What is voting intention by school nativity role we played? Labour’s best result is with those who played Wise Men, Tory’s Joseph, Greens narrators & maybe mirroring their rise from underdogs to today Reform’s best score is among those who played sheep/donkeys

Trump's Bill passes - going to be important stuff here for your case study! Jeffries speech, Republican rebels, delays (power of Speaker). Great for parties, role of Congress, presidential powers (incl. persuasion), federalism, elections (mid-terms?) and more!
