That is patently false: not only do immigrants score better than native-born Americans in tests, the mere presence of immigrants improve test scores for all students, when factoring in white flight

"Hi all, I'm really sad to share this news. One of our RRRN community members was detained this week after ICE required him to check in in person and lied about why. He's lived here for decades and is a community leader, who always lends a helping hand to neighbors."

Christopher Rufo is just a white supremacist, and I think it’s silly that we’re still doing news stories where he’s called a conservative activist or some other harmless sounding term.

"Because McMahon is just starting the tour, little is known about what she and other speakers will say to students."

Is there anything of value she can possibly impart to students? Isn't this the woman dismantling the DoEd?!? 🤬

Her parents owe their lives to the United States accepting them as asylum seekers fleeing religious persecution in Iraq in the 1980s. She wouldn't be here if we had not offered her family safe haven.

The hypocrisy is stunning.
Habba: There were individuals that were saying that this should be a safe harbor, a safe haven. Why? America is America because we protect our own.

"Western civilization," the font, the 11 stars - 11 states in the confederacy, for the record.

Why is this never news? Why are we letting our government agencies do this sort of thing while the news agencies report on hallucinated trade deals and act like everything is normal

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

I'll start: @ravenscimaven.bsky.social should share about PRI's need for donations before the end of the year because it is a center of science communication, teacher education, and science outreach, especially for Earth and climate science, and they are based in NY www.priweb.org/learn-and-te...
