Matt Damon: “A teacher wants to teach.”
The son of a public school teacher, he defends teachers as heroes we should be grateful for rather than villains we should be threatening to punish — as pro-privatization forces would have us believe.

Remember it’s not normal for a FBI director - appointed by the president-elect himself to serve a 10 year term 7 years ago - to resign in this way, and it’s normal to nominate someone as unqualified as Patel to replace him.
None of this is normal - and should not be normalized by the news media!

So because *other* politicians have drinking problems, somehow that's adequate justification to put one in charge of the Pentagon. Got it.

This we need
Two senators have introduced a constitutional amendment that would establish term limits for Supreme Court justices, a long-shot escalation of the congressional effort to overhaul the nation’s highest court amid ethics scandals and sinking public approval.
Supreme Court term-limits amendment proposed by Sens. Manchin, Welch
The long-shot proposal by Sen. Peter Welch (D-Vermont) and outgoing Sen. Joe Manchin III (I-West Virginia) would impose 18-year term limits on new justices.

Virtually every question today at the WH Press briefing was about the Hunter pardon, as if that is the thing the American people care about most right now. The DC press is so disconnected from the American public and serves them poorly more often than not.

The move will restore public sector workers' collective bargaining rights.
