We really need to stop talking about education as if it happened in a vaccuum.
We’re continuously learning, each and everyday. Our communities and their infrastructure including design, supports, and services should reflect that.

Slavery was legal. Jim Crow was legal. Never limit your sense of morality to America's legal system.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.
No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.
1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

If the federal government can disappear a legal US permanent resident without reason or warrant, then they can disappear US citizens too.
Anyone - left, right, or center - who has highlighted the importance of constitutional rights + free speech should be sounding the alarm now.
NEWS: Last night, DHS detained a Palestinian who helped lead Columbia encampment.
Agents told him his visa was revoked. He said he had a green card. They were confused—then said that was revoked too.
His attorney demanded a warrant. Agents hung up instead.zeteo.com/p/breaking-dhs-det…

BREAKING: The 7,000 IRS agents fired by Trump and DOGE appear to have mainly been employees who worked in the Large Business and International (LB&I) division, which audits companies with more than $10 million in assets and high-income individuals.
Weird, right? It’s almost as if they are trying to help Billionaires and cut the revenue of the US, meaning that the middle class will suffer.
democrats, please do something other than just sit there and “take it.”
@RepAlGreen just gave you a blueprint for what to do the remainder of whatever this is - 1 by 1

A lot of American media doesn't seem to be adequately covering what's really happening in the US. So I will.

I run a private weather company and can confirm what Josh is saying is true. If it's a weather forecast, an app, TV weather graphic, Doppler radar stream, or weather model map, the raw data is coming from NOAA.
The US experiences more severe weather than any other nation on Earth. NOAA has been up to the task (death tolls have been falling due to improving tech, timely warnings and collaboration with local meteorologists). Firing 800-1000 experts from NOAA is a giant step backwards.
The tornado, hurricane and flood warnings you receive at home aren't automated. They come from local NWS meteorologists with many years of experience. Best forecasts are man + machine. NOAA was already short-staffed.
These cuts will make it harder to keep your family safe when skies turn threatening. Hype? Wait for it.
This isn't efficiency. It's insanity. A potentially deadly edition of FAFO.
If anyone is telling you the private sector can replace the expertise and data of the @NWS, they are feeding you some weapons-grade BS. We can’t.
Sincerely,
The Private Sector

Unfortunately, Republican Leadership denied my ability to vote remotely after giving birth to my son, Sam, but that’s not stopping us from showing up to vote NO on this disastrous budget proposal.
They want to rip away health care from 400,000 CO kids, take food off the plates of seniors & veterans, and make life more expensive for hardworking Coloradans – all so they can give tax breaks to corporations and billionaires like Elon Musk.

You’re about to hear all kinds of things about a bill called the SAVE Act.
Congressional Republicans are using it as a cover to take away voting rights from thousands of Americans—all while claiming it’s about stopping non-citizens from voting.

So let me get this straight, he wants contracts for cancer research cancelled but says let keep contracts for his company Spacex to do research. Greedy billionaire trying to ripoff the American people pretending to be altruistic is all I see.
