Happy Public Schools Week!
As a former teacher, I know that public schools are not just where our kids go to learn - they’re the center of our communities.
That’s why I was proud to make the largest investment in public schools in state history.

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

Then releasing it as if they discovered it ?
Brilliant if true. Absolutely brilliant. Fooled me.

Any usaspending.gov experts out there that can tell us ?

We want to take a moment to express how proud we are of you, America. You have stood up and spoken out every step of the way—especially when Congress and the media remained silent. When we called for help, you answered.

USAID.gov is down. Why is this concerning? Trump has no legal authority to eliminate a congressionally funded independent agency. The work of USAID is vital, and if this can happen to them, it can happen to any of us.

The Trump administration has placed two top security chiefs at the U.S. Agency for International Development on leave after they resisted turning over classified material in restricted areas to Elon Musk’s staffers. America, please stand with us—we are fighting to defend this country!

The thing to understand about Trump is like in his first term, he doesn’t want to govern. He doesn’t want to learn. He wants to campaign and look good.
Republicans know this. So there are battles going on right now to take control of the actual process of governing.

#AnthonyFauci dared to commit the one mortal sin for which there can never be any forgiveness: he stood in the face of their bloviating, belligerent spray-tanned savior—and spoke truth that could actually save lives.

RIP DAVID LYNCH
We’re deeply saddened by the passing of David Lynch. Bowie himself cited Lynch’s work as an influence and who could forget seeing DB as FBI Special Agent Phillip Jeffries in Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me.

While I like Michigan winters, I don’t like it when there is no snow and zero humidity. I feel like a piece of beef jerky.
