🧵President @realDonaldTrump is right to not waste his time meeting with @SenSchumer and @RepJeffries. Chuck Schumer is extremely weak and Hakeem Jeffries is a liar. His word can’t be trusted. Most people don’t know the real Hakeem Jeffries. He publicly praised his virulently

@karenvaites Honestly, my takeaway from this isn't that tracking is bad, it's that teachers can't be trusted to do it right. Which, functionally, might be the same thing.
