Alright, Georgia. You heard him. We are a Blue State. Continue to act accordingly.

Yup!

Blorgia

It’s a shame. We had a recount in Chatham a few years ago for an assembly position. The challenger lost, but it was worth it. She won the second time. I feel like the recount made the electorate take her seriously.

All the news coverage says the race has been called and my GA election nerd hat is super confused.

That is also recount territory!

Did Foster confer? They have til Fri for overseas ballots and ballot cures. I dropped out of ballot curing (burnout), but those teams are effective.

How Zohran Mamdani Beat Back New York’s Elite and Was Elected Mayor

This NYT story about how Mamdani dealt with the opposition by the city's elites fails to mention one particular elite institution: The NYT editorial page, which last June railed against him as "uniquely unsuited to the city’s challenges... lacks political savvy"

It is saying DeKalb & Fulton are not reported yet… lol. How big is this win going to be?

I know some local DeKalb races are coming in via Decaturish. Apparently they threw out everyone in Stone Mountain.

So now that we all know Trump and his agenda are insanely unpopular, who in the Republican Party or the business world is suddenly going to grow a spine and stand up to him?

Good news!

For SNAP Recipients, Anxiety Over Funding Leads to Hard Choices At one grocery store in Massachusetts, SNAP recipients faced growing fears, dwindling funds and lighter shopping carts.

More than one million residents in Massachusetts rely on federal food assistance, according to the state. At one grocery store on Saturday, SNAP recipients faced growing fears, dwindling funds and lighter shopping carts.

I think about this a lot.

The secretary at the school at my first teaching job was a Holocaust survivor. I saw her number tattoo on her wrist daily.

Super banned here, too. Two of the major lawsuits against them are families here in the DeKalb school district!

This Week in DeKalb Schools: Post Indictment, The Board, SAP & More Is this thing on?

I wrote about DeKalb Schools again and where we are at 2 weeks post- superintendent indictment.

They forgot to put on the epic jazz hold music!

I have been doing some writing about our indicted superintendent, Dr. Horton, and well, social media is sure based on my Google searches that what I really want is one of these houses.

I saw them in 1994 and it was similar energy except Jewel was the opener.

Yeah… I got this Instagram ad of him and it was a head scratcher for who thought this appeals to those who will bevoting in Dem primaries. Not a great orator, either. www.instagram.com/reel/DPcGziS...

Is Devon Horton an uncontrollable liar or does he have bad counsel?

Everything in this statement about the threats and the noose have been proven to be false or exaggerated in public records.

This will not help his case or wins hearts and minds in Illinois. The prosecutors know for arguments.

Are the names public?

Federal cases are complicated, but it’s worth noting the 4th defendant, Antonio Ross, was not arraigned with them.

He was caught by Chicago Public Schools committing PPP loan fraud. The investigation started before Horton tried to take him to DeKalb. His educator’s license was revoked in 2024.

A legitimate question is how Devon Horton can afford a trial.

The evidence is damning.

He is leveraged and has a lot of mouths to feed.

Hope he has good counsel.

School district lawyers and the firms that represent districts are not very good. I think he should go join the girls team and so how that goes over with parents if that is their stance.
