SB 13 is a bill that removes local control from public schools across Texas and gives politicians (not parents) the power to decide what books are or are not available to students.

Unless they were teenagers.
It really wasn’t fair of Maxwell Frost to call Clay Higgins Donald’s lapdog. Everyone knows Donald keeps his Republican Representatives on leashes and would never let them anywhere near his lap. 🤷‍♂️
Rep. Frost: “You're here because you're lap dogs to the president of the United States…”

Rep. Higgins: “Words taken down, Mr. Chairman. My colleague just called me a lap dog of the president of the United States. I move for his words to be taken down.”

What does that mean? Is it going to be the Shumer non-response?
Asked about a Dem response to a Rep. Nadler aide being handcuffed by DHS agents inside his congressional office —

@RepJeffries: “We will respond in a time, place, and manner of our choosing… it will be continuous and it will meet the moment.”

BASH: “What does that mean?”

Is this letter in support of the incels of the education world or is it just hate, hate, hate all the time?
Wow!
This letter from Trump administration is both sickening & frightening.
People should read the letter the Trump regime sent to Harvard demanding in essence full control of the school from hiring to student groups to policies. This is what Viktor Orban did in Hungary by taking control of colleges. Thankfully Harvard said no! www.harvard.edu/research-fun...

This ruling is not only a win for the students of Elbert County but also reinforces the principle that public schools cannot censor books simply because some individuals disagree with their content.

The planet doesn't need humans, especially the fascist type.
Even if this talking point weren’t fash nonsense used as a pretext for authoritarian population control, the most effective solution would be to make a world where people could thrive and all were cared for and the wealthy who benefited most from society paid their fair share for that benefit.
