I understand, and I don’t mean to be cavalier, but I live in the deep red south, and the whining is getting very loud. I’m truly horrified about what’s happening.

Boo hoo to all the red states. My blue heart does not bleed for you.

Include J for Justice. DEIJβ€”which do you oppose, Pres Trump-diversity, equity, inclusion, or justice? What was thatβ€”all four? Thought so.

I can’t even tell you how many evaluations I’ve had that were worthless. Very few admins in my experience had solid pedagogical expertise. Those few that did were really worth it as they recognized effective strategies and gave excellent suggestions.

They (I didn’t vote for them) elected him because they are cowardly sycophants who only want to maintain their power.

And your banking info

Yes, data including our direct deposits bank account numbers.

While I’m sickened & outraged by this, I’m very concerned for all of us who have direct deposit as now DOGE has access to all bank account information. That’s not only SS, but tax refunds as well.

It’s not just SS paymentsβ€”it’s our direct deposit bank account numbers that are at huge risk.

I live in Mississippi, and you can’t get much more red. We have a local group that meetsβ€”Democrats, Progressives, Independents Alliance. It helps.

I retired from teaching at a top tier international school, and DEI is actually DEIJ (J being for Justice). In top tier international schools, DEIJ is huge and permeates the entire culture, from the classroom, to professional development, to admin’s hiring practices.

I live in Mississippi, and you can’t get much redder than that. I am sickened everyday. My friends and I don’t know what to do. We are writing letters, calling, having meetings to devise action plans, but it seems hopeless. Congress needs to act now!

All our daughters ought to be hesitant to seek emergency gynecological medical care for fear of criminal arrest. #TheHandmaid’sTale

When it all comes crashing down, of course the Democrats will be blamed.

What’s next? DEI, the new CRT demon on to McCarthyism.

California needs to gerrymander just like the red states did to create their super majority. It would shut their sh*t down.

Trump only knows how to disrupt and destroy. He is intellectually lazy and so is his staff.
