🔥 WATCH: “TEACHERS ARE NOT IGNORANT. THEY ARE OFFENDED.”

A Knox Schools board member rips @GovBillLee for trying to bribe teachers with $2,000 each to get his private school voucher scam passed — even when the state’s own data shows they don’t work.

Pretty gross, Guv.

Sad that we now have to worry about disaster aid getting withheld over politics again. Imagine if Biden did that with Helene aid?

🤥 Another FACT-CHECK on @SenatorHagerty as they rip Biden for auctioning off the border wall…

@TexasTribune: “the sale was ordered last year by Congress, and Texas already received material from the federal government— and purchased more this year.” www.texastribune.org/2024/12/20/t...

An Israeli strike just killed 5 more journalists outside a hospital in Gaza.

NPR: “Committee to Protect Journalists says over 130 Palestinian reporters killed... Israel has not allowed foreign reporters to enter Gaza except on military embeds…”

Matt Damon: “A teacher wants to teach.”

The son of a public school teacher, he defends teachers as heroes we should be grateful for rather than villains we should be threatening to punish — as pro-privatization forces would have us believe.
