I dreamed last night that Trump called for ethnic cleansing so he could build condos in Gaza, put a deranged anti-vaxxer in charge of public health, and let Elon Musk steal all our Social Security numbers.

We usually avoid discussing national politics, but we care deeply about student safety, and this news is very disturbing and scary. We thought you should know — and this makes dealing with SAFETY issues at the LOCAL level even more crucial!

The media has failed the public on a crucial matter: the derangement of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Often he is described in news reports as a vaccine skeptic, when he is far more than that. He is an extreme vaccine opponent.
The madness of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
The depth of his extremism has not been fully conveyed to the public.
