Michigan jumped Arizona for the overall top spot in my midweek bracket update, following the Wildcats' Big Monday loss at Kansas. The midweek slate is highlighted by another pair of Big Ten contenders, as Purdue visits Nebraska tonight (7 ET, FS1).

Too perfect that they're calling it a hack. Homeschooling is for parents who want to hide abuse. It's also about resegregation. Civilized countries spend money improving schools, not trying to make fake school at home.
Looking for an edge in college admissions? Just pull your kid from school. Homeschooling, long associated with hippies and religious conservatives in the U.S., is in the middle of a rebrand and a boom.

Yo Norm Nation, two days ago, I got connected to a family in hiding who fell through the cracks. They were desperate for groceries and baby formula. Yesterday, I delivered the groceries, and they told me that they need $2,500 for rent or they’ll be evicted in 10 days. DM if you want to help out.

Ron Johnson to Keith Ellison: "Two people are dead because you encouraged them to put themselves into harm's way! And now you are exploiting those two martyrs. You ought to feel damn guilty about it. Yeah, sit there and smirk. Smirk. It's sick! It's despicable. You disgust me."

It remains to be seen how this promised "drawdown" in MN will go, but in the meantime as the prez admin declares "victory!" people in MN are hitting a new crisis of overdue rent, failing businesses, and traumatized kids with learning loss. This was always the "best case" end and still it's so bad.

oh so just dumb luck these idiots didn’t shoot down a passenger aircraft
According to multiple NYT sources, it wasn’t even military personnel at Fort Bliss that fired an anti-drone laser at alleged cartel drones. It was CBP who used the weapon on loan from DoD against a child’s party balloon they mistook for a drone. The Pentagon gave CBP an anti-aircraft weapon.

Ukraine’s Vladyslav Heraskevych Writes New Chapter in the Olympic Protest Tradition
The flag bearer’s disqualification over a helmet featuring athletes killed in the war is another example of how politics and the Olympics cannot be separated.

Fuentes, yesterday: “Our #1 political enemy is women because women constrain everything, every conversation, every man, everything. They have to be imprisoned. They are the ones that are hurting the fertility rate. They're the ones making us sympathetic to poor people, which are also brown people.”
