I believe this 1000%

Showing students how we got here.

Teaching them how to evaluate evidence for themselves.

Enabling them to evaluate the present for themselves.

SO important right now.

Understanding the past is our future.

Gov. Tim Walz: "We are not a country that settles our differences at gunpoint. We have demonstrated again and again in our state that it is possible to peacefully disagree, that our state is strengthened by civil public debate. We must stand united against all forms of violence."

I told you we’d be back

Light a lantern or even two…and set the world ablaze

Tonight is the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere’s midnight ride. May his memory remind us all to resist the tyranny forming in our government.

At the heart of every attack on disability benefits is the myth disabled people “get perks”: a free car, loads of cash, a life off work. It misrepresents the reality of disability, whilst exploiting low wages and high living costs to make the public envy people in daily pain.

Need a positive activity this week? Rock some socks this Friday and celebrate World Down Syndrome Day! We celebrate on March 21 (3/21) each year to recognize that individuals with Down syndrome are born with 3 copies of the 21st chromosome. Colorful, crazy socks remind us of a chromosome study.

Former Defense Secretaries: “We, like many Americans- including many troops-are therefore left to conclude that [top military] leaders are being fired for purely partisan reasons.. we’re not asking members of Congress to do us a favor; we’re asking them to do their jobs.” apnews.com/article/pent...

El Capitan displays a massive American flag upside down—the traditional signal of distress or extreme emergency.

I was just an Education Department guy under Reagan and the most junior WH senior staffer under G.H.W. Bush, so what do I know? But if I were an ex-president, and the current president were executing the most disastrous turn in American foreign policy in 80 years, I think I might say something?

REPOST if you support our federal workforce and know how dedicated they are to their jobs. Show them you appreciate them!

"It is with a heavy heart that we admit Spines for Senators has failed in its mission to provide invertebrate lawmakers with the transformational surgeries they so desperately need."

@charlesgaba.com is a hero and downloaded CDC’s entire website. A small group of us has come together to preserve this critical resource and make it accessible to the scientific community.

More to come. These data are public and they are ours. Deletion disobedience is one way to fight back.

No one's blaming Democrats for causing this crisis, but yes, many of them are failing to meet this moment.

One Democratic senator could bring the chamber to a halt. House Dems can go to fed agencies being gutted by Musk with cameras in tow. Governors can push back. State AGs can bring lawsuits.

Emergency Video: Where are the Dems and what is the message?! Oppose this agenda now! Come back from vacation!

I knew all this was going to happen. But nothing can really prepare you for what it feels like when the moment actually arrives. This is why we need each other and our communities. I plan to turn to them a lot in the coming years.

We haven’t been here before.

We haven’t had a near-authoritarian takeover of our government.

Admittedly, we don’t know what comes next.

But know that in the US, this is new ground. And none of this is normal.
