This is so great. I’m reading “The Antifa Handbook” and the chapter on the history of the fight against fascism has some great descriptions of Irish and English working class folks throwing bottles at fascist rallies and beating the crap out of fascist in the 1920 & 30s.

Such a badass publication. Shame to see it go down in flames.

Sob. Sniff.

The perverse pride of being the worst state of all was denied once again to LA. We usually have Mississippi to thank for making us #2 from the bottom, but this time shout out to Kentucky for treating old people even worse than the great state of Louisiana! #wearetheworst #bestworststate #louisiana

I just finished Elizabeth Gilbert’s hot mess of a memoir, All the Way to the River, and I am dying to talk about it with somebody. Anybody else out there not sure if they loved it or hated it?

Sorry, no, too mild by far. Here’s my list
1. End the electoral college.
2. Kill Citizen United.
3. Term and age limits for everything, including SCOTUS.
4. Make Gerrymandering illegal.
5. Expand the SCOTUS.

Everything else just wastes our time.

I stayed up until 2 am and got up at 5:30, and I feel like shit. I’m 58. The only reason I am gleeful is the thought of a 79 year-old overweight, unbalanced, dis-regulated, orange turd dealing with jet lag on a packed schedule. Run his ass ragged, please, nations of Asia.

I love to do a politically inflected Halloween display. I had a wrathful Dakini slaying trump in 2020 on my front porch and nothing in 2024 and I think that’s probably why he won. It’s my fault.

This is amazing. And it’s truly the stuff of nightmares.

Contest every race. Have a candidate in every race on every ballot in every county in every state.

Run even if you know you can’t win. Run because you know you can’t win.

No seat uncontested. Bring the fight to every ballot.

There is no Charter School “million-student waitlist.”
There are empty classrooms, declining enrollment, and schools closing mid-year. #CharterMythBusted

Charter School Reckoning: Decline, Disillusionment and Cost - Network For Public Education

Part I: Decline, the first installment of a three-part report, Charter School Reckoning, presents sobering findings on the stagnation, retrenchment, and accelerating closures plaguing the charter school sector as it enters its fourth decade. The report, published by the National Center for Charter School Accountability, documents that in the first half of 2025 alone, 50 […]

I taught for 34 years in New Orleans and can verify this article tells no lies. Utter chaos, failure, incompetence, racism, discrimination, and instability is the legacy the charter system. Will any of the architects of and people who profited off this failed experiment admit it? Never!

The ‘Miracle’ of New Orleans School Reform Since Katrina Is Not What It Seems

The city’s all-charter school experiment is a cautionary tale about what happens when democracy is stripped from public education.

Ok, but still waiting on a response or explanation as to why you signed off on the decision to spin off gas services to Delta Utilities, confusing and confounding hundreds of thousands of rate payers in the two majority Black cities of La. *only* and giving Energy a back door rate hike! Any day now…

Don't export the NOLA approach to other districts. @carolburris.bsky.social explains why the sales pitches are built on quicksand.

Marley and Scrooge—tied together in damnation—but without the redemption because we know damn well the orange menace can’t, won’t and doesn’t want to change.
