This is not normal. This government gets closer and closer every day to declaring war on its own people.

A lot of my work is unseen, even to the most careful observer. I've spent long hours for almost a week, admitting new students and onboarding them. (This takes a lot longer than you might think.)It's a pretty terrific group of kids from 27 countries on five continents. Excited to see them in action!

Excellent point.
I have shared the same bathroom with Sarah McBride on several occasions, and she never once made me uncomfortable. She did however help me fix my makeup. That congresswoman knows how to blend her foundation, which is more than I can say about Donald Trump.
