I’ve been a teacher and a principal. I’ve seen what works.

We need to treat skilled trades with the same respect as four-year degrees.

Under my leadership, we’ll invest in trade schools, pay students while they train, and make sure the jobs are right here in Northwest Georgia. #GA14

They already are in Richmond. "She's the same thing as Mamdani in New York, except that Mamdani at least admits that he's a socialist," said Bryce E. Reeves, a Republican state senator, who said he would give Ms. Spanberger "an F for working across the aisle right now" because "none of my colleagues have seen her." Told of Mr. Reeves's remarks, Ms. Spanberger reached across her desk for her cellphone and began scrolling through past messages from him. "That tone and tenor seems to differ very significantly," she said calmly, "from his direct outreach to me at the beginning of January, and the lengthy conversation we then had."

And just to be clear, among those problems is definitely that they sanewash Trump a lot. No one can deny that. But they do also find times to point out the insanity. And calling out this article, which, if anything, positions AOC as a viable Democratic leader, is off base

There are a lot of problems with the Times but if you want them to publish more articles like this one that the above quote appears in, it doesn't help to pretend that they never publish such articles

DONALD TRUMP: So I liked Ronald Reagan. I thought he was, um, look — I did not love his trade policy. I’m a very good trade — I have made some great trade deals for us — the U.S.M.C.A. That wasn’t his strength, but he had a great dignity about him, Ronald Reagan. You could say, “There’s our president,” more than any of the others. Really, any of the others. Uh, great presidents — well, Lincoln was probably a great president. Although I’ve always said, why wasn’t that settled? You know? I’m a guy that — it doesn’t make sense we had a civil war.

I'd love to see the demographics of the arrested people.

Also, I suspect the cops have a quota to meet. (One of the nested articles heavily implies that.)

A newly surfaced 2011 email from Jeffrey Epstein referencing a planned call with Donald Trump appears to undercut Trump’s claim he hadn’t spoken to Epstein since the early 2000s. Read the full story at bit.ly/46VSgr1

Imprisoning children is child abuse. No matter how a child arrived in our country, we should not use government resources, taxpayer money, to abuse and traumatize children.

Maria is one of hundreds of children, who — like Liam Ramos — have been held at a Texas detention facility where parents say children languish as they’re served contaminated food, receive little education and struggle to obtain basic medical care.

Here's our attempt at telling their stories. 2/

I like to talk to my dog about science in ways that are relatable to him. For example: Explaining that he must have good boy genes and cutie pants genes in the same topologically associated domain since they're both expressed at a high level. As you can see, he's v attentive. #sciencewithGoose

Do not doubt that my lab would try this. I joked once that they could either do short talks or an interpretive dance about the fly brain circadian clock circuit. And they picked dance. There were props. One actor played the sun. 🧪😂🧠⏰💃

I will probably also need a lighting and sound crew, backup performers (dressed as neurons and signaling molecules), support personnel for set, choreo, and costumes, and at least two 12-hour dress rehearsals. Funding agencies pull up!
