“The ease with which dramatic behavior gets attention online has convinced many political activists that a better world doesn’t require years of patient work, only a sufficient quantity of drama…that utopia can be achieved by acting like a three-year old” gurwinder.blog/p/the-outrageo…

Well put! Students at our private school are completely funded by FL state scholarships- I don’t see the controversy in allowing parents to choose!

“I am also grateful that the night before school started I was able to explain to my children that a judge restored me to my elected position because we live in America and our Constitution guarantees our Freedom of Speech.” My thoughts in ⁦New York Post⁩ nypost.com/2024/09/05/opi…
