I saw part of an interview on local news and “We hadn’t practiced for the church yet so we didn’t know what to do” It just broke me.

I genuinely think part of the current political dynamic is that a lot of Dems -- especially your typical educated, affluent city-dwellers -- simply can't believe what's going on. Even though it's right there on the TV, right there in the streets, it's hard to shake the feeling of unreality.
Kristi Noem says the administration is "going from city to city around this country and pressuring these politicians to get on board with keeping their people safe. What is going to be the story here in Washington can happen in Chicago, Boston, San Francisco ... "

ICE kidnapped her. Held her for 6 MONTHS in a detention facility with conditions so miserable that she finally agreed to voluntarily move to Honduras, which her family left at gunpoint.

This letter campaign was supported by the Vancouver DPAC Inclusive Education Working Group, of which I am a member. Many of the parents and caregivers who used the accessible letter template added stories and statements of their own and every one of those deserved to be read. They were not “spam”.

What is the job of a school board trustee if not reading emails from interest holders and being responsive to them? One ABC trustee in @vsb39.bsky.social decided to treat advocacy emails from over 200 parents/caregivers as “spam”, and to post his grievance on X, compromising parent privacy.

The Trump admin is dismantling Freedom of Information Act offices. Then the offices send out emails like, “Hello, the FOIA office has been placed on admin leave and is unable to respond to any emails.” The lengths this admin will go to ensure zero transparency with the American people is astounding.
