It was an honor to be invited to present at the PMEA conference today in Pocono Manor, PA. I’m grateful that so many people braved the April snow this morning to join us for this morning, and I hope I have those in attendance some inspiration to bring back to their classrooms on Monday

To my Canadian friends - I’m sorry for the morons running the US right now. Most of us still stand with you. #ElbowsUp

I’m going to go ahead and agree on this one for a moment. Looks like it’s time to go, Mr. President

Like most Americans, I’ve been paying into social security since I was a teenager. If they think I’m going to be quiet and sit here behaving myself while they try to strip away MY money, they’re severely mistaken

We now live in an America of state controlled media. I never thought I’d see the day where I need to regularly seek sources from outside of our country. Question everything, even from sources we’ve long held as reliable

I have never been more ashamed to be an American than I am today. Between this horrific display in the Oval Office and the ongoing systemic erasure of women, people of color, and the LGBTQ+ community, our nation sinks further into shame on a daily basis. It’s way past time to stop this

What the actual *?! The White House has designated Mr. Musk’s office, the United States DOGE Service, as an entity protected from public records requests and most judicial intervention until at least 2034, by classifying its documents as presidential records.

Trump says he'll be new Kennedy Center chair after dismissing trustees The president had an at-times contentious relationship with Washington's iconic theater during his first term.

Controlling art is a way to control the minds of those around you. The quote saying that he removed people who β€œdo not share our Vision for a Golden Age in Arts and Culture” is reminiscent of Stalin’s statements on Soviet realism or Hitler’s statements on degenerate art. Pay attention to this one

Shuttering the agency responsible for international assistance.

Turning the government over to wealthy oligarchs motivated by economic self-interest.

Telling all CIA officers they will be paid if they quit.

China and Russia are winning so much they are getting tired of winning.

The richest man in the world is sitting at the Resolute desk, about to defund your public school.

Trump should stop him.

About a month and a half ago, I bought a two pack of 18 eggs (3 dozen) for about $7.00 at the Coralville Walmart. Today, that same two pack is $16.18. Good thing so many people were willing to flush democracy down the toilet to more than double the price of eggs.

Approximately 20 members of Elon Musk’s staff have begun working within the Education Department. They have gained access to multiple sensitive internal systems, including a financial aid dataset containing the personal information of millions of students enrolled in the federal student aid program.

Trump wants to hold up to 30,000 detained migrants at Guantanamo Bay. Here's what to know President Donald Trump, who made the deportation of immigrantsΒ a central partΒ of his campaign and presidency, said Wednesday that the U.S. will use a detention center atΒ Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to hold ...

While today’s news coverage is largely centered on the tragic aviation accident, make sure we don’t lose sight of the fact that it was announced yesterday that we plan to build a literal concentration camp for immigrants at Guantanamo

It Had Been 16 Years Since a Fatal US Airlines Crash. But there appears to have been another one this evening.

As a GA pilot, I’m deeply concerned about what will happen in a world without independent FAA and NTSB oversight, and in a future with mass firings of ATC personnel (who are all federal employees) and where hiring decisions are based on political loyalty rather than competence. #aviationsafety

Don't Let Bishop Budde Stand Alone: A Challenge to Every Minister in America. To the Ministers in America,

Dear Ministers in America,

Bishop Budde did something awe-inspiring, something sadly rare, and something you are also capable of doing.

Sunday is here.

May you greet it with courage.
