Ohio requires buses for private school kids. Public school students have to find their own ride School districts are responsible for transporting private and charter school kids, leaving thousands of public school students behind

"Private" schools are a fiction and menace, they are all frauds built upon the persistent theft of public funds and resources intended for the benefit of children. It is the duty of all good and moral people to work towards the complete destruction of private schools.

the thing everyone is going to have to accept is that the post-trump period, whenever it comes, will not and cannot be a project of national unity, it must be a project of partisan project of renewal, in the same way that reconstruction and the new deal were partisan projects of renewal.

The Luss hogback carved stone.

The #Viking-Age Luss hogback still lies in the C6th graveyard of the magnificent and welcoming Luss Parish Church.

As with several @govanstones.bsky.social hogbacks, Luss has been recarved in later periods, possibly losing any end-beasts.

"nine of the ingots – accounting for nearly a third of the hoard’s silver – were geochemically matched to silver minted in the Islamic Caliphate"

I don’t know if Newsom, Shapiro and Rahm are idiots, but this is an idiotic strategy.

This is pure uncut nonsense from Sotomayor. If the constitution changes then that is what the constitution says. If you change it to say it is retroactive then that is what the constitution says.

Justice Sotomayor suggests—implausibly—that justices somehow have a vested property interest in their office. Yet another reason why relying on judges to be reformers is an absolute disaster.

Lmao

This is so fucking stupid

“It doesn’t matter that Americans are struggling with the cost of housing because they can buy lots of TVs”

Illinois law requires that hospitals not discriminate, and when Pritzker and Raoul tell the parents of trans kids "it's not discrimination to comply with the federal government," they're abandoning their obligations.

A circular embroidery in a wooden hoop of the White Horse using various stitches including hundreds of French knots for the main grass, long and short for the folds of the hill below the horse, and turkey tail for a field and scattered trees.

Apparently it’s World Embroidery Day so maybe you’ll enjoy this aerial landscape I made of my beloved childhood haunt - the White Horse of Uffington. An @nationaltrust.org.uk site from the later Bronze Age or Early Iron Age. Find out more here www.oxfordarchaeology.com/uffington-wh...

I want to be clear about one thing since the Chicago press isn't getting it: This is NOT about gerrymandering. JB Pritzker is NOT a hypocrite. Texas is already gerrymandered.

This is happening because Texas law dictates that redistricting is to take place every 10 years. 🧵

A red metal lunch box attached to a parking sign with the words DUCK LIBRARY in yellow, as well as various stickers, primarily of yellow rubber ducks. On top is a mini easel holding a canvas with a painting of two yellow rubber ducks on some water, with a red heart above them, presumably indicating their love for each other. While not pictured, the duck library contains various little ducks for people to collect and enjoy.

Does your neighborhood have a duck library? Because I have to tell you, the people love a duck library!

i know this is quaint of me but the white house renovation is crazy illegal and actually really emblematic of how trump sees the presidency as belonging to him

This isn't a list of jobs that A.I. can easily replace.

It's a list of jobs that techno fascists don't think are worthwhile or meaningful and that they want to eliminate.

They don't want humans to try to make sense of the world, they want us to believe whatever we're told.

If the WSJ actually cared about gun violence the headline would be "New York Shooting Puts 2nd Amendment and Supreme Court on the Spot," but we all know they don't.

I say this all of the time. THANK YOU.

Ending Crime and Disorder on America's Streets By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered: Section 1.  Purpose and

This is an executive order that lays the groundwork for sending homeless people and people with mental illness to concentration camps to be "civilly committed." It was never going to stop with immigrants.

This is horrifying beyond words.

Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern confirm merger talks to create coast to coast railroad Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern are confirming they're in merger talks that would create North America’s largest railroad, stretching service from East to West Coasts.

My God, Mr. Russell did it! And Season 3 of the Gilded Age isn't even finished!

He knows the Israeli government is committing genocide, right?

Lawsuits from men against the doctors who provide abortions to their partners illustrate that men understand abortion bans as legal codifications of their private right to dominate and control women.

The governing party of the United States is shutting down the federal government to cover-up evidence the president sexually abused children so he can continue trying to implement dictatorship.

That's just a true statement about the world!

Brazilian president: "I'd like to say something to the American people; If Trump was Brazilian and did what he did at the Capitol, he'd be on trial in Brazil for violating the Constitution. He would be arrested if he had done that."

The media has got to stop coddling these white women who align themselves with fascism, only to cry like they had no idea fascism was happening two seconds later.

Murkowski is not a victim.
She was not cheated.

This is what she voted for. This is what she’ll vote for again and again.

Shachnow, 33, began working for ICE in 2021, shortly after she graduated from law school, according to public records and her LinkedIn account. The latter lists “Civil Rights and Social Action” among her “favored causes.

I once had an OC for prisons who described himself as a civil rights lawyer so

Sorry, no: Lawyers who defend stripping birthright citizenship from 150,000 infants a year deserve to have that held against them. Forever.

We should shame every lawyer who defends this egregiously unconstitutional cruelty. They are a stain on the legal profession.

If newsome is willing to abandon trans people so quickly, he will inevitably abandon you when it comes to it. A man who won’t fight for the most vulnerable won’t fight for anyone but his own interests

As I understand it, Mamdani went on all kinds of podcasts to share his message and pull folks over.

Newsom seems to be going on podcasts to ABSORB their message and GET pulled over.
