🗃️ Chatting with friend who wants to teach their HS students how to do oral history, and remembered this unit plan on the Free Speech Movement I helped develop when I was a grad student, which includes an oral history toolkit.

The Intensified Assault on Factual Reality Firing the messenger who delivered bad economic news is the latest sign that Trump is failing. He'll manipulate more data as the economy worsens.

“Democracy depends on an informed public. A successful economy depends on reliable data so policymakers can make informed decisions. Introduce untrustworthy information into the equation, expect an increasingly troubled economy.”

Science bad…

Always remember whose fault this really is.

Mark Burnett.

The guy who created the TV myth of the “successful businessman who said “You’re fired” & is very strong.”

Complete fiction. Created a monster.

The power of media.

Is it really him writing all this nonsense? Seriously?

An Overwhelmingly Republican Christian Problem Not drag queens. Not LGBTQ+ people. Not the 'woke.' It's Republicans. It's conservative Christians. It's conservative Christian Republicans.

Decision to unfreeze migrant education money comes too late for some kids • Stateline The Trump administration announced it would begin reinstating more than $6 billion in education funds. Among the programs affected was an education program for children of migrant agricultural workers...

The Trump-Vance admin abandoned students. We fought to get that money released, but for too many students, the harm is already done. We'll keep advocating for all children to get the support they need. stateline.org/2025/07/31/d...

Gary Teachers Union opposes online teacher hiring: move replaces “soul of education” As a nationwide teacher shortage left Gary schools turning to online licensed teachers to fill the void, the move has drawn criticism from the leader of the Gary Teachers Union.

Technology can be a supplement to, but not a substitute for, educators and students working together in the classroom. I'm glad GlenEva Dunham and the Gary Teachers Union are organizing with families to stop this and turn folks out for the 8/14 board meeting. www.chicagotribune.com/2025/07/23/g...

14 year old me wanted to go to a rocknroll show. Buddy’s older sister said, take your dad to something tame so he’ll think it’s OK. My first concert was Melanie at the Felt Forum in NYC. Funny cigarette a few rows back, but Candles In the Rain did it for my musical dad.

And this has always been true. NEA started asking this question in the 60s. No change.

94% of teachers have had to dip into their own pockets to buy school supplies. An estimated 1 in 6 have second jobs during the school year to make ends meet.

The average Wall Street employee got a record $244,700 bonus last year.

Something has gone terribly wrong.

BREAKING:
An Epstein victim testified under oath during Ghislaine Maxwell's trial that Epstein took her to meet Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago-when she was just 14 years old.
This isn't gossip. It's sworn testimony in a federal courtroom.

The Trump administration tells us it wants to arrest "the worst of the worst."

But it arrested an innocent hairdresser and is trying to exonerate America's most notorious living child rapist.

They’re giving the base the script.

what this is, above all else, is the biggest green light we’ve ever seen for Dem primary challenges

the Dem base is deeply, deeply angry at the party for not doing more to oppose Trump and the door is wide open for anyone who is serious about doing more on that front

My rural Georgia grandad dragged us all to the Rockettes every time he visited. I saw them every year between ages 5 and 9. Good times…

And your daughter will feel safer.
