I am a boomer. My husband and I are retired public school educators. Yes, we've owned homes since the '80s. But we will die penniless when we grow sick enough to need pricey healthcare and housing. The government and nursing home industry will strip us of everything.Your analysis is short sighted.

I believe there is no historic precedent of a dominant world power dismantling its own influence unilaterally. This is a colossal self destruction.

I was supervising a high school play, when a teacher struck up a conversation in the lobby. She announced she and her husband were Ohio State grads. Then she started to spew racist comments about students in her class and the school. #TheOhioStateUniversity you're a big no.

Whose more corrupt? More wanting to grease Trump's palm? FIFA or SCOTUS?
If SCOTUS planned to uphold birthright citizenship, they would’ve left the lower-court rulings untouched. Taking the case is the tell. You don’t grab a 150-year precedent just to admire it. They took it because they intend to change it. Pretending otherwise is denial.

Louisiana paroled nine prisoners to deport them.
We found that at least two have been deported, while two others are being held at a new immigration detention facility.
But neither ICE nor the Landry admin would answer questions about the other five.

Louisiana Made It Nearly Impossible to Get Parole. Now It’s Releasing Prisoners to Deport Them.
Gov. Jeff Landry eliminated parole for prisoners arrested after Aug. 1, 2024, and tightened eligibility rules for those already in prison. Then he set all of that aside for one group: undocumented imm...

One day after his attacks on Somalia as a nation and Somalian immigrants and citizens. Hate is not peace. #hateisnotpeace
FIFA upholds its reputation as the world's most corrupt sporting body. The beautiful game is ruled by an ugly sanctioning organization.
The man who murdered fishermen and plotted attacks on
Venezuela actually won the FIFA Peace Prize.
Trump is a person who divides countries, promotes hate
and has zero empathy for anyone.

ICE detain U.S. citizen woman driving to work—dressrd in full medical scrubs.
"I’m a U.S. citizen, please help me!" she cries. "Why are you doing this to me?"
Woman was dragged out of car, tackled to ground & handcuffed.
Agents finally checked ID to prove her citizenship.

🇨🇦 Canadians boycotting the United States are actually moving the needle. Las Vegas alone has taken a four-billion-dollar hit because Canadians chose not to go. The American alcohol industry is down another nine hundred million. That is real impact.

Even though Trump is trying to bury it, real people feel what’s coming. We’re either already in a recession or staring straight at one.

If students can’t do the bare minimum, they cannot pass the class.
I’ve struggled with this my entire career. I teach collegiate and advanced courses; I know it’s my job to make them do hard things. If they pass my class and can’t do hard things, I failed.
And I don’t fail.

An issue we're seeing at all levels of university is that many students are simply refusing to do *anything*. They aren't reading the syllabus, aren't following assignment guidelines, aren't engaging with material, ignoring deadlines. And this might seem like old news, but it truly has ramped up.

I have bad news for you, wannabe satirist: You are not Charlie Chaplin.
Also: Chaplin regretted making the movie. "Had I known the actual horrors of the German concentration camps, I could not have made The Great Dictator; I could not have made fun of the homicidal insanity of the Nazis."

I guess serious professors now consider it juvenile to make movies about “Adenoid Hynkel” and “Benzino Napaloni”
Sure, it's cute, but I really wish people would stop with the memes and funny names. It's stupid and unserious. As I wrote here in 2021:
