Yes, a lot of these private schools are just churches setting up daycare "schools" to siphon taxes as alternative revenue sources. Private schools don't require staff to have teaching credentials. They don't even have to use background checks.

Eh, that's how you end up with teachers putting revisionist history, prejudice, and pitches for their church in there. I'd rather have some limits on what gets covered. Or we need to raise teaching requirements across all states.

YES. Poor families are paying taxes so rich families can send their kids to exclusive schools - which can even be out of state. Republicans are letting the rich spend TN tax money for private schools in Massachusetts and Connecticut.

Vouchers are snapped up by rich families - but paid for by average workers. Vouchers fund private schools - even out of state. Your tax money in TN can be spent in Massachusetts. Private schools can refuse to serve kids with learning problems - which are helped by high quality early Pre-K!

ICE is still refusing to follow through on its pledge to equip its officers with body cameras. Their goal is without body camera footage, accountability becomes much harder. If you witness an interaction, remember to keep your camera rolling and document what you can safely.

They could not look guiltier if they tried. If Mitch is dead/incapacitated, These people should be in prison for fraud/racketeering. They’re defrauding the people of Kentucky for their salaries at the VERY least. @govandybeshear.bsky.social #MissingMitchMcconnell

"A concentration camp, in its most basic definition, is a place where a targeted civilian population, not necessarily accused of a crime, is detained and at least some of their basic rights are suspended," writes @jwashing.bsky.social. "That’s precisely what’s happening in the United States today."

Conservatives are always finding new depths.

Which killed even more people. But...iunno, Trumpers are... I met a guy here who was anti vax anti mask even after his wife and daughter died of covid. He wore their photos on a necklace to work. And probably voted again for the party that helped kill his family. Like, it's beyond me!

I think they're just hoping to turn out votes. They want to remind people - not how Trump shut down CDC COVID monitoring and then didn't contain it fast enough and arguably caused it to be as big and economically devastating as it was... But that they blocked mask and vaccination requirements.

Thank you for everything you and your team does! Our local hospital staff unionized after that to get better support, and we're supporting them! You all should be higher paid and better treated.

I’m a nurse who worked in the hospital where the first ICU COVID. case was treated. Every single one of my peers feared for our lives and the lives of our loved ones when caring for these patients. I made a lot of friends with people who died alone in my hospital. Seriously, fuck Rand Paul to Hell.

Could someone quickly assure me Putin isn't paying Trump to run out America's Air defenses

Roy Cooper's groundwork was also decades of public service where he consistently strongly defended those "fringe" civil rights issues that "moderates" are telling Democrats to abandon. Just a thought when someone's telling you to move right "for electability". Don't.

As the U.S. runs short of interceptor missiles, Iran is carrying out strikes with a mix of attack drones and advanced ballistic missiles. interc.pt/4pKMjpe

Like this person creates the macroeconomic environment we have to survive in. Not to mention restoring or destroying life-support ecosystems that provide air, water, food, safety... But Republicans get in and spend our money and resources like it's theirs. Sacrifice our lives for their wealth.

I keep thinking how "Bush Jr won bc people would rather have a beer with him" and it's like... Ok, but do you put your drinking buddy in charge of your investments? Your household budget, kids' college funds? Let them hold onto your credit card and pick your healthcare?

Republicans are idiots. 'The U.S. and its allies burned through more than 11,000 munitions, including large amounts of defensive missiles, in the first 16 days of the war alone....U.S. forces were about a month away from running out of THAAD interceptors.' theintercept.com/2026/07/28/i...
