I love when people start up with "we need a total overhaul of education!" as if there isn't a whole field of education research that exists, as if this comment hasn't been made approximately 1 million times by people who have never read that research

I will never forget the photo of Zelenskyy’s face after he saw Russia’s war crimes in Bucha in 2022. He seemed to age years in an afternoon. Watching him constantly cross the world asking for aid that should have been thrown at him is one of the deepest shames of our age.

Telehealth truly is a Godsend for those of us living with a disability. Join Peter and me in calling Congress.
Another REASON to contact your 3 members of Congress. For me and my disability community, Telehealth has been a LIFESAVER, improved quality of life, saving me time & energy from traveling to/from doctors appointment for follow-up results and other non-essential visits.

Telehealth Will Die In 3 Weeks Without Congressional Action
Urgent action is needed to pass the Telehealth Modernization Act before it expires, ending telemedicine on Dec. 31. This would be devastating for disabled and rural patients.

Nikki Haley highlights the danger of Trump’s DNI pick, Tulsi Gabbard, which was already wholly predictable when Nikki endorsed Trump.

You have yourself to thank, Nikki.

Donald Trump has said he plans to use the Department of Education to further his priorities. He also said he would close it. But is either possible? Even with his electoral victory, both options would face difficulties. nyti.ms/3UPvMlG
