We randomly selected 30 titles to see how many physical copies were pulled for “1006.28 Review” in Hillsborough County Public Schools media centers.

30 titles = 1,729 physical books.

There are over 600 unique titles between the state’s two lists.

Let that sit.

“They took my shoes and pulled out my shoelaces.

'What are you doing? What is happening?’ I asked.

'You are being detained.’

'I don’t understand. What does that mean? For how long?’

'I don’t know.’”

I’m the Canadian who was detained by Ice for two weeks. It felt like I had been kidnapped
I was stuck in a freezing cell without explanation despite eventually having lawyers and media attention. Yet, compared with others, I was lucky

Project 2025 was unpopular because of things like the plan for Trump to shut down the CFPB, which helps you get your money back if a bank cheats you.

Yeeess because billionaires paying taxes is unheard of!
How ever will they hoard their wealth if not for the rest of us paying more to make up for that?!
There it is.

Trump’s Treasury nominee just said “extending” Trump’s tax handouts for billionaires is their TOP priority: “This is the single most important economic issue of the day.”

The Senate has just voted to confirm #PeteHegseth, a drunken, out-of-control abuser, as the weakest Secretary of Defense in history.

This was the closest vote for SecDef, needing the weird couch guy to break the tie.

It's a sad day for America.
Hegseth is a DUI hire.
