I’ve spent years studying the impact of public policy on education in America. I have a lot to say.

This is my photo from 2005… I was a Palestinian child living in my home, going to my kindergarten, and taking trips to the beautiful cities of Palestine.
But today… I am displaced in Mawasi Khan Younis.
I wish I had died as a child, before witnessing this painful life.💔💔

Trump hints he will change Pentagon’s name to Department of War “I don't want to be defense only,” the president said. “We want offense too.”

The antiwar president wants to change the Department of Defense’s name to the Department of War. 🤷🏽‍♂️

The irony is not lost on many in Washington that Trump says spitting on a DC cop is justification for hitting/punching back "hard" when he pardoned hundreds of Jan. 6 rioters who assaulted those same cops — and said attacks on them that day were "minor."

You’ll have to excuse me if I can’t take seriously what defines antisemitism from a party that refers to Nazis chanting “Jews will not replace us” as very fine people. #antisemitism #freepalestine

If you’re more upset by what @ronfilipkowski.bsky.social and @meidastouch.com pointed out about TX lawmakers and GOP voters bearing responsibility for the flood deaths than you are about TX officials blaming NWS and NOAA for not giving advanced warning after voting to gut those agencies, fuck you.

They’re wrong to do this. Acquiescence in advance is cowardice.

Better to just do nothing at all in the face of fascism, like every hero in history.

Woody has been in heavy rotation on my playlist lately. Incredible modern equivalent is Jesse Welles, if you haven’t heard him, you should, you won’t be disappointed. He’s Dylan sound, with Woody lyrics, it’s impressive.

Tear the fascists down!

I've been listening to a Singer Songwriter called Jesse Welles and he's basically a modern day Woody Guthrie.

Great stuff.
