The U.S. will send $100 million in aid to civilians in #Gaza and the West Bank.

“If #Hamas diverts or steals the assistance, they will have demonstrated once again that they have no concern for the welfare of the Palestinian people, ” #Biden said. “It will stop the international community from being able to provide this aid.”

Open letter to male GOP House members: If Jim Jordan threatens to wrestle you to the ground be aware that later he will offer to find a friendly doctor to give you a checkup. #houseGOP #SpeakerOfTheHouse #JimJordanVote

Unfortunately for all of us, Republicans really are the fucking embodiment of the old saying: “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”

I'm hoping to see more than 20... need more defectors....

Jim Jordan loses for the second time. Add his name to the undistinguished list of GOP Losers that populate our politics.

And Chavez DeRemer votes McCarthy. It's over for Gym. He'll lose by more this time.

Wife of NC congressman Don Bacon receives anonymous text messages warning her husband to back Jim Jordan as Speaker or he 'will not hold any political office ever again' https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12643181/amp/nc-don-bacon-jim-jordan-speaker-vote-texts.html?ito=smartnews Absolutely freaking bizarre. The GOP #GQP Banana RepubliKKKans are a disaster.

Pete Aguilar is just trolling Republicans now. Says Jeffries got 212-200 and is qualified to be Speaker. LOL

Picked up a tutoring gig. I am horrified by the quality of high school chemistry textbooks.

Also, some teachers are waaaay too restrictive when trying to prevent cheating.

I understand not letting students keep exams (I do that in my college classes). But not letting students keep their study guides is just cruel. And, since they work the study guides at home, where they have cameras and can make copies, not returning those study guides is useless to prevent cheating, but punishes less advantaged students.

Awesome!

Now... What should #Trump Tower and Mar-a-lago become to keep the MAGAts away? Homeless shelters? Universalist Unitarian churches? Democratic HQ?
