Betsy DeVos has resigned leaving no one at the helm of the Department Of Education, which is a vast improvement from the last four years.

Teachers are not babysitters. Teachers are not babysitters. Teachers are not babysitters. Teachers are not babysitters. Teachers are not babysitters.

As a teacher, I should not have to choose between my job (providing for my family), and my health (keeping my family safe). This statement is a stand-alone truth.

We just did a long segment on this, which we’ll post but I truly think it is under appreciated how very close things came on Wednesday to a massacre.

😂😂😂😂😂

This is Congressman Schiff basically saying... yes, get ready for a second Trump impeachment.

Chris Hayes on how close the Capitol riot was to something far more violent and sinister. on.msnbc.com/38rS9Ws

In the days since the Capitol lockdown, I spoke with survivors of school shootings & gun violence prevention activists about the trauma of witnessing a lockdown. It's a reality many students in America are familiar with. This is what they told me: cnn.com/2021/01/09/us/…

This segment from Chris Hayes is by far the best cable news presentation/explanation I have seen about the attack on Wednesday. Not for the faint of heart, and probably not something to watch with kids... But if you have 10 minutes to set aside and watch this today, please do:

NUSD is reporting lower positive COVID cases than we really have in our school district. 😡😡😡

Looking again at the video I took of the mob storming the Senate, there’s a moment when the lead rioter looks right for a second, before continuing to follow the officer left, away from the immediate entrance to the Senate. This happened at 2:14.

22,000 people died of the flu in the entire 2019-2020 flu season. We’ve lost almost 30,000 to Covid since New Years. If someone tells you it’s just like the flu, they’re wrong. Let’s keep doing our best to keep ourselves and the vulnerable safe.

Couldn’t say it better

Totally blown away. $1M raised in direct relief for Texans in less than a day. As a thank you to everyone who contributed & amplified, I’ll be going to Texas this weekend to visit w/ Sylvia R. Garcia in Houston & highlight what’s happening on the ground. secure.actblue.com/donate/aoc-soc…

A death warrant for Texans. Add them to the 44,000+ killed as he failed to confront the pandemic & botched the vaccine rollout. And those who froze to death because he cares more about energy companies’ profits than keeping Texans alive. Abbott is killing the people of Texas.
