@GriffithObserv was a lot of fun. Killer sunset AND I caught a harvest/full moon too. The hike through the park to get there was a nice get away from the busy of downtown LA

Yes, you're highlighting that school funding has declined even MORE than the enrollment decline. Meanwhile, we have a higher % of children with specialized needs that require more resources. Foster care has increased exponentially, higher % of students with exceptionalities, etc.

So pointless, other than the cruelty and humiliation brought down on people who need a little help
New: West Virginia lawmakers decided to continue drug testing adult applicants for TANF, a program that helps low income families pay for food, utilities and more.
In 2025, less than 1% of applicants tested positive for drugs. westvirginiawatch.com/2026/1…

General Revenue collections are running behind the rate of inflation, and the state has lost 1,800 jobs over the past 12 months. Plus, we have a lot of new budget costs on the horizon. wvpolicy.org/wvs-economy-aft…

States need time to implement these changes and without it children are going to go hungry. 4,000 WV kids have already lost SNAP since HR 1 was passed.
@SenCapito @JimJustice_WV @RepCarolMiller @RileyMooreWV please vote to delay implementation of SNAP cost shifts to states.
New federal SNAP rules are pushing states to rethink budgets, technology, staffing and how they help families keep food on the table.

What happens to a school impacts an entire community.
More than 10 West Virginia public schools have already been proposed for closure just months into the school year—this comes on top of nearly 140 school closures that have occurred across the state over the past 15 years.

I remember reading Crime and Punishment in college and thinking “Dostoyevsky had these people’s number [libertarians/liberals and their hangers-on] 100 years before they were born.”
"The Fountainhead “is so dense and complex,” marvels Brad Pitt, “it would have to be a six-hour movie.” (The 1949 film version already has a running time of two hours.) Christina Ricci claims that The Fountainhead is her favorite book because it taught her that “you're not a bad person if you don't love everyone.” Rob Lowe boasts that Atlas Shrugged is “a stupendous achievement, and I just adore it.” And any boyfriend of Eva Mendes, the actress says, “has to be an Ayn Rand fan.”" thenation.com/article/archiv…

This 'savings' estimate is based on a major faulty assumption: that 90% of Hope recipients would have otherwise attended public school. Not the reality according to the agency who administers Hope + says it's the opposite- that 90% would have done private school even absent Hope
New Cardinal Institute + @edchoice analysis estimates $19.1M in net state savings from Hope in FY 2025, assuming 90% of participants would otherwise attend public school.

Great to speak with @ThisWeekABC on why "tremendous self-regulation" for AI would be a tremendous mistake.
