We need the best educated workforce in the world.
We need the best teachers in the world.
We need to pay our teachers fairly for the important work they do.
No teacher in America should begin at less than $60,000 a year.

This is what a rigged economy looks like:
In the 1970s, CEOs made 27 times more than the average worker.
In the 1980s, CEOs made 48 times more than the average worker.
This decade, CEOs are making 354 times more than the average worker.
That has got to change.

No due process means he decides your guilt or innocence. Not the courts. Not a judge or a jury.
No longer will you be deemed innocent until PROVEN guilty.
You’ll be declared guilty and snatched off the streets with no recourse.
Is the wisdom of the Constitution kicking in yet?

They defend trump's decisions & actions as if their children's life depends on it! This is not normal
TAPPER: You're imposing a 10% on the Heard and MccDonald islands. They have zero human inhabitants. Why are you putting tariffs on islands entirely populated by penguins?
ROLLINS: Whatever. Listen, the people leading this are serious, intentional, patriotic, the smartest I've ever worked with.

It’s what authoritarians resort to when the tide turns against them.
It’s what the authoritarian in this White House is setting the stage for.

thinking of one of abraham lincoln's great quotes this morning:
"As I would not be a slave, so I would not be a master. This expresses my idea of democracy. Whatever differs from this, to the extent of the difference, is no democracy."

Does anyone know of a news program that is honest and telling us the real deal of what's up with trump vs acting like it's just musk being too fast on his minimizing government, rather than telling how he's taken our country into an authoritarian government & abandoned all our allies!

Wisconsin residents are receiving text messages from a (202) D.C. area code, falsely urging them not to vote in the upcoming election. These messages are not legitimate.

Disgusting they all deflect , gaslight, and call names- such intelligents!
I'm not saying anything novel here but it really is just truly despicable to watch them use THEIR OWN COLOSSAL SCREW UP to slander the reporter THEY INCLUDED ON THEIR CLASSIFIED GROUP CHAT
Mike Waltz smears Goldberg as “the bottom scum of journalists.”
