Walz: "The idea that the secretary of education would not know what IDEA is -- individuals with disability in education act -- that's like your mechanic not knowing how to put air in your tire. And she's in charge of this nation's education progress. It is catastrophic."

He's 💯 right! The states already have control. The assertion that they're shutting down for that. Well, the Dept of Ed gives support & resources. Today, our Regional Office in Dallas closed!😢
Our children w/ Special Needs & those w/ the least resources will suffer the greatest! 😭
Dismantling the Department of Education has nothing to do with improving outcomes for our kids, it’s simply about taking away resources from our public schools.

Watching US and AU #Survivor at the same time. Wondering why some Australian game play hasn’t come over. Knowing a swap will come if Vula loses again and that going to tribal once improves post-merge, why not throw the challenge? @shannongaitz.bsky.social @davidbloomberg.bsky.social

Yes. Do this!
Arizona AG Kris Mayes, New Mexico AG Raul Torrez, and Oregon AG Dan Rayfield will begin holding Community Impact Hearings — a national series of townhalls "to hear from the public about the impact of federal firings and DOGE funding freezes across the country."

The first will be in Phoenix March 5.

Posting this from months ago because we DO have homegrown experience with autocratic regimes in this country.

In nearly half this country during the first 6 decades of the 20th century Black people lived under systems of cruelty, voter suppression, hate, state violence & corruption. Ask them!

I feel a deep connection with Brynn. I see the mess I was and sometimes still am. My story is not as tragic as hers but childhood trauma and abandonment can really eff you up. When the thing that should be most true - your parents’ love - isn’t true you lose your connection to all reality. #rhony
