Deep state refugee from that darker place. Center/Left. Into politics, Ukraine, soccer, the arts, education, and emerging science/tech. Not the person you invite to parties, but the first you call when the SHTF.

My not have an arm on one side that could double as the couch back?
Some of the worst teachers known to mankind are college entry-level math teachers.

By the way, UVA students aren't taking College Algebra and are typically great math students, so pick a different pic.
Right now "developing its energy sector" means cleaning up explosion debris and installing anti-drone defenses thanks to Ukraine. Pro tip for Maria - Developing that sector will be far easier if you GTFO of Ukraine.
If any other past president of either party did this they would have been immediately impeached. Every single one.
I'm pretty sure this ship has sailed.
George - There are serious security implications from fast tracking demo and constructions. The White House is going to end up with more bugs than a picnic in Florida.
Kai, people aren't talking enough about the security implications of fast-tracking the demo and construction.
People aren't talking enough about the national security threat posed by rushing construction. There is no way that workers are being properly vetted and materials are being properly screened.
By rushing the construction, he is exponentially increasing the risk of listening devices and other intelligence gathering equipment being placed in the White House.
Empathy is dead on the right. Our only chance to win some people back is to convince them that they would personally benefit financially under Democratic leadership. They won't even do it to make their own kids' lives better.
Republicans would have even impeached GW Bush if he did this during his admin.
They are normalizing the idea in preparation so it won't seem as outlandish when it happens.
Well their agents are licensed to kill, so just makes sense that it should be them. Putin will capture them, tell them all his secrets, delay the execution for no reason, and then the agent will escape and get his revenge.
I figured he just reminded Trump that he had the pee tapes, the Epstein files, and copies of all the secret crap that was stored at Mar-a-Lago.
My first glace was "Why is there a boot in the tree?"
Youngkin's legacy in education: 2 fired state superintendents, the state board of ed chaired by someone who works for "the premiere voice of private education in Virginia" and who makes Pam Bondi seem sweet, hundreds of millions spent with little to show for it, and the VDOE is a dumpster fire.
If going to a rally in a high-profile city, understand you are likely to be tracked via cellphone, facial recognition, and license plater readers. This might seem minor now, but if things get worse your precautions could be invaluable.
Do they give Pulitzers for social media posts?
Many districts are using the universal screeners that Jack Naglieri has made. They are specifically designed to reduce bias as much as possible. The NNAT3 doesn’t even have writing so that it can give an accurate score for students who don’t speak English.
Educational leaders in many regions point to statements like "IQ isn't just some inborn "merit" and eliminate programs for the highest ability students because they claim "all students are gifted." Be careful that the well-meaning messaging to lift up some doesn't tear down others.
This statement is only partially correct. People are born with different innate ability, and education and environment are key to determining how close people come to reaching their potential ability. To get a Newton or Einstein, you still have to be born with an extremely high potential range.
According to Fortune, back in 2023 the average board of directors member earned 325k/yr base pay for the position.
By playing the peacemaker card as much as possible, Trump establishes a counter-narrative to the reality that he is a transactional fascist kleptocrat. Everyone has to think they are the good guys, even whey they aren't. This just reassures the core that Trump is benevolent.
