Well that sucks.
Stephen Owens: The Public School Is the Best Choice for a Just Society - This evangelical Christian points out how important and unprecedented our unique public schools system is.

Fox News was just hit with a BRUTAL ruling in a New York State Appeals Court, allowing Smartmatic's $2.7 billion defamation case to proceed against the network. Just wait till you hear who will be forced to testify: https://youtu.be/lQe6Oq21Q7U
They came for the trans girls but I didn't do anything because I'm not trans.
Then they came for the lesbians but I didn't do anything because I'm not a lesbian.
Mark my words... the #ChristianTaliban will not stop until they make the U.S. into #Gilead and a version of The #HandmaidsTale

@ewdocparris Beautiful! Reminds me of Robert Silverberg.
Long Live Social Security: Chief Actuary Says Bernie Sanders’s Plan Would Keep Program Alive Another 75 Years: The proposal includes applying two new taxes: one 12.4% tax on investment income for individuals earning $250,000 per year, and another 16.2% net investment income tax for specific business owners, including active S-corp. holders and active limited partners (the latter tax would be divided among retirement & disability benefits as well as the general TSY fund)-: https://www.barrons.com/articles/retirement-social-security-benefits-plan-17fc8330
Interesting that Mike Pence is resisting his Grand Jury subpoena.
Got something to hide, Mike? Got secrets of your own you'd rather We The People didn't know about?
Mike knew everything about the plan but told no one. Sure, Mike didn't pull the trigger, but Mike knew the plan - and said nothing like the co-conspirator to commit insurrection that he is.
Mike will lose this fight. This is the last battle. Pence's testimony - his isn't the only testimony here - is the icing on the cake.

Today, on the 5-year anniversary of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas mass shooting we’re left mourning yet another school shooting. So I again ask my colleagues, how many shootings is enough before Congress takes ACTION? We can and must do better. #EnoughisEnough
