The billionaire owner of the Washington Commanders might name his new stadium after a man who just got mercilessly booed by his entire fan base because they despise him. Seems like a brilliant branding strategy.

Finished reading "Fifteen Wild Decembers" by Karen Powell. Great audio narration. Free on Hoopla. If you're a Bronte fan. Maybe you will love it, as i did.

Cold in the earth—and fifteen wild Decembers,
from those brown hills, have melted into spring:
faithful, indeed, is the spirit that remembers
after such years of change and suffering!

Leadership has to look different than it ever has before.

If we want leadership that meets this moment, we need leaders that are responsive to the people and will fight for them.

Also, they haven't been paid in 40+ days.

Air traffic controllers work under impossible pressure every day. The President couldn’t do their job for five minutes, yet he’s lecturing them like they’re the problem.
Social post by President Donald J. Trump that says: 'All Air Traffic Controllers must get back to work, NOW!!! Anyone who doesn’t will be substantially “docked.” For those Air Traffic Controllers who were GREAT PATRIOTS, and didn’t take ANY TIME OFF for the “Democrat Shutdown Hoax,” I will be recommending a BONUS of $10,000 per person for distinguished service to our Country. For those that did nothing but complain, and took time off, even though everyone knew they would be paid, IN FULL, shortly into the future, I am NOT HAPPY WITH YOU. You didn’t step up to help the U.S.A. against the FAKE DEMOCRAT ATTACK that was only meant to hurt our Country. You will have a negative mark, at least in my mind, against your record. If you want to leave service in the near future, please do not hesitate to do so, with NO payment or severance of any kind! You will be quickly replaced by true Patriots, who will do a better job on the Brand New State of the Art Equipment, the best in the World, that we are in the process of ordering. The last “Administration” wasted Billions of Dollars trying to fix antiquated “junk.” They had no idea what they were doing! Again, to our great American Patriots, GOD BLESS YOU - I won’t be able to send your money fast enough! To all others, REPORT TO WORK IMMEDIATELY. GOD BLESS AMERICA! PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP'

Vouchers rob public schools and taxpayers.
nashvillebanner.bsky.social Nashville Banner @nashvillebanner.bsky.social · 20h
Tennessee voucher schools don’t have to follow the same standards as public schools. The result is a lack of transparency and a patchwork of testing and curriculum heavily influenced by Christianity.

✏️: Lillian Avedian & @sarahgracetaylor.bsky.social
Some Tennessee EFS recipients lack accountability of others - Nashville Banner
Testing and curriculum choices in Tennessee's private schools receiving public funding through school vouchers falls far short of public school requirements.
