Mike Pence rarely does interviews, and when he does, he’s extremely deliberate about which outlet he chooses. He chose to sit down with the AP. Worth noting.

At a news conference in Los Angeles, US Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced that President Trump does not support a wasteful rail system in California. Duffy faced near-constant waves of boos and chants. sfgate.com/travel/article…

There’s a debate to be had about whether a good use of taxpayer $$ is funding private schoolers who were already there. (I’m against it). But that debate needs to begin with the data-driven fact that that’s what vouchers do—not with spin that vouchers are about new choices.

In just issued statement, IPS responds to legislation and calls for 2 year moratorium on any new schools in the district boundaries, and future charter school authorizing to be coordinated between district & the Mayor’s Office. Full statement: myips.org/ips-2025-legis…

I talk to as many Trump supporters as I can these days. Which is how I know that his education agenda is raising all kinds of red flags. From vouchers to controversial picks to lead the Dept of Ed, Trump is charting an unpopular course, & losing some of his base as a result

There are some self-proclaimed Christians pushing voucher scams. Vouchers take money from public schools and give it to wealthy parents who already send their kids to private school. I can’t think of anything more un-Christian than stealing from the poor to give to the rich.
