Finally, some common sense from Oklahoma education.

Ryan Walters turned classrooms into culture war battlegrounds. Reversing his Bible mandate isn’t “anti-religion,” it’s accepting the fact that the Bible is not a history book!

Schools should teach, not preach.

The racist-ass Supreme Court says race can't be a factor for college admissions or redistricting but racial profiling is perfectly fine for ICE to bash brown and Black skulls.

F this corrupt institution.

Expand the Court.

Met Shannon in Boston, and all she had to say was that Paige and me looked like siblings. And then when she realized we didn’t like that she tried to correct by saying her and her boyfriend look related too. That was the whole interaction.

ABOLISH ICE and EXPAND THE SUPREME COURT should be mainstream Democratic promises and talking points.

But timidity and civility will rule the day and screw the rest of us and this country in the end.

I have seen a range of opinions and reactions from across the ideological spectrum on the Young Republicans thing, but one take you really don’t hear from anyone is that they are shocked this was happening.

AOC: The problem is that the Trump administration, they think that destroying our health care, making sure that housing is too expensive to live in, that jacking up the cost of our groceries—they think all of this is about hurting Democrats. What they are doing is hurting Americans

Sanders: They have refused to negotiate. And anyone thinks that tomorrow they'll suddenly start negotiating. I think, is smoking what is illegal in many states

AOC: And should be legal in more.

AOC: When one party wants the votes of another party. You negotiate, you come to a compromise and you pass a bill. That is schoolhouse rock. And that is how things should be

There’s a common feeling across the U.S. right now, a sense of helplessness. Many people want to do more but feel like they can’t. Remember: every action you take pushes the resistance forward.

Dear Jag and Jas, this is the Amazing Race. It's not a team sport. Stop whining that Izzy and Paige won't hand you the lead like everyone else does. #TAR38

"The challenge is that in divvying it up, while the federal government will still have a role, once it's not under one umbrella ... you risk that those issues will not be addressed as sufficiently and adequately as they were under the Department of Education," said @nancyayoussef.bsky.social.

NEW for @washingtonpost.com:

Pentagon reporters exited the building in unison Wednesday after turning in their badges, having refused to sign the Defense Department's press policy.

@nancyayoussef.bsky.social called it a “sad day for those who support a free press.”
