Is anyone still on Twitter? I get emails recommending tweets from people I follow but my timeline is basically the same 3 accounts in between ads.

BREAKING: The Florida Board of Education has just passed a rule that expands the rule around the Don’t Say LGBTQ law to K-12 and is enforceable against individual teachers through possible removal of their educators license. The lust for government censorship is insatiable.
RIGHT NOW: The Florida State Board of Education is preparing to vote on a proposed rule that would expand Don't Say LGBTQ -- and its government censorship chaos -- through 12th grade. You can watch live:

The Tennessee GOP is looking to expel 3 Dems for protesting for gun control. One of them is from Nashville, which the GOP has kept targeting over the past year with laws removing their political power. Just published last week:
boltsmag.org
Recent Republican efforts to diminish Nashville’s political autonomy are adding to conservative state governments’ efforts throughout the South to remake liberal cities in their image.
BREAKING: House Resolutions have been filed against Rep. Justin Jones, Rep. Justin Pearson and Rep. Gloria Johnson to formally expel them from the Tennessee House. @NC5

The text of DeSantis' higher education bill has been released. It's as terrifying as the press release suggested it would be. Florida HB 999 would enact the most draconian and censorious restrictions on higher education in the history of this country.

Wow, this story from @goni_lessan: The Florida Department of Education is investigating Leon County Superintendent Rocky Hanna for his personal views. Hanna received a letter from the state on *Christmas Eve* signed, “Please govern yourself accordingly.”
tallahassee.com
In a certified letter, the Florida Department of Education alleges Rocky Hanna has failed to take “reasonable precautions to distinguish your personal views and those of your educational institution.”

This is terrifying. 👇 Florida higher education is in serious trouble
Florida House Republicans are using fear and intimidation to abolish Diversity, Equity and Inclusion programs from higher education. University Presidents will be afraid to speak out and possibly lose funding or worse. This is the new McCarthyism of Ron DeSantis.👇🏼
