Education is not memorizing that Hitler killed 6M Jews.
Education is understanding how millions of ordinary Germans were convinced that it was required.
Education is learning how to spot the signs of history repeating itself.

I watched his live veto. He was on fire, calling out the Rs cutting healthcare funding while insisting govt be in the doctors office with women, who can’t be allowed to make their own family planning decisions. My paraphrasing, but man, THATS how D need to talk all the time in public.
Mary OContrary @MaryInCognitoNC Gov Roy Cooper has vetoed the state's new 12-wk abortion ban.
Cooper has supported abortion rights since becoming governor and vowed to protect access. His action sends the legislation back to Republicans, who have enough seats in both chambers to override the governor's veto authority.11:31 AM - May 13, 2023

The presidency is a container ship. Powerful, sturdy, can carry a huge load of desirable goods. It’s not nimble or fast. Those traits belong to downballot office holders and activists. it’s our job to stir things up.

Tucker Carlson might be out at Fox News, but if you're counting on the network to suddenly start telling the truth, don't hold your breath.
As long as there’s money to be made by selling lies, weaponizing Trump's viciousness, and peddling conspiracies, Fox News will continue to do it.

Republicans decry “the weaponization of government” yet those same Republicans cheer on Ron DeSantis as he weaponizes government against “wokeness” and declares war against Disney.
Ron DeSantis is a glorified grandstander masquerading as a governor.

Babies cry. It’s what they do.
Sometimes, they cry on planes.
As someone without children, I keep in mind that I only have to hear this on occasion. Parents have to hear it all the time.
Thus, it’s easy for me to put on my headphones and keep my mouth shut.
Try it!

I came to the conclusion a while back (based on the sources of their donations), that the "No Labels" Party is nothing more than a Trojan Horse for extreme right-wing MAGA voting agendas.

TwentyTwentyUSA @TwentyTwentyUSAAn important throughline between "No Labels"

Rather, it’s indulging conservatives under the flag

As the mother of a gay son, I want to say to those parents who can't accept your child's authentic self: It's your loss and you will regret it one day. You failed your child when they needed you most. It's never too late. A parents' love is unconditional. Make it right. #lgbtq

You can also pitch stories. So I suggested to them to do a story on Christopher Bouzy and Spoutible.
Maybe if they hear that a couple times it could become reality. I'd love to get a backgrounder on the origin story of this site.
