Try explaining this whole Department of Education saga to a curious 12-year-old… while we are sitting in the corner nodding (or shaking our head). Okay, kid, here's the simple truth: In 1980 America said, "Hey, let's make a big new federal department to help make sure every

The federal government has a responsibility to ensure that no American family is left in the cold. Programs like heating assistance aren’t about politics, they’re about people. They’re about seniors who’ve worked their whole lives, children who deserve a warm home, and families
Colder days are coming, but 150K Massachusetts families are still waiting on the Trump Administration to release funding they need to heat their homes. The shutdown's been over for a week. President Trump needs to do his damn job and get heating assistance out today.

Eye opening data with only one conclusion: when we look at the record of our courts, we see something troubling. For forty‑four years, through presidents of both parties, the number of nationwide injunctions was seventy‑eight. But in just five years under President Trump, there
Nationwide Court injunctions: 4 years of Carter: 2 8 years of Reagan: 12 4 years of H Bush: 6 8 year of Clinton: 12 8 years of W Bush: 12 8 years of Obama: 20 4 years of Biden: 14 44 years of previous Presidents there were 78… 5 years of Trump: 94 This is a judicial coup.

Why such a disparity of public rituals of grief? What else have you seen that could expand this poem? Our Grief Tonight, the candles burn for three hundred sixty-six, names spoken against the November wind, their stories gathered in vigil, their absence carved into the
Today, we mourn the transgender Americans whose lives were lost to anti-transgender violence. Democrats believe every person deserves to be treated with dignity and respect, and to live their life fully and honestly.

Energy Policy for a Civilization That Builds Beyond Earth Imagine you’re designing a civilization from scratch sort of as @elonmusk would. You’d want energy that’s abundant, reliable, clean, and scalable. Fossil fuels got us started, they’re dense, dispatchable, and
Climate myth: Solar and wind are taking over the world No New report from International Energy Agency shows that solar and wind will cover 12-16% of global energy by 2050 Yet, The Guardian claims new report shows renewable “transition ‘inevitable’, despite Trump”

Check out Chad Jones @ChadJonesEcon paper that discusses The Core Problem: Ideas and Babies; something that @elonmusk has called out as well. https://t.co/m160A5sYbo The paper makes a mathematical case that the "Empty Planet", where everyone only has one child, leads to a
Elon Musk @elonmusk on the propaganda that the Earth is overpopulated: “First of all, I'd change the education system so that people stop being taught that we're overpopulated. This is completely false. The Earth can absolutely sustain this population; we could double or triple

Why STEM (Science Technology Engineering Mathematics) Funding Isn’t What You Think It Is People often say the U.S. government “supports STEM.” But if you actually look at the numbers, you’ll see something surprising: most STEM funding doesn’t come from the Department of
@JRlotsofnumbers @JayDi08396708 @dr_andrealove @grok Sure, collectively across three levels of government we spend more on education. Meanwhile, federally, the military is a bloated mass compared to education funding. That doesn’t change lower education investment leads to worse outcomes. States that invest more do better.

Let’s be clear: no one is saying the United States copied the Haudenosaunee Confederacy word for word. Madison drew from Rome, Athens, and Montesquieu. That’s true. But Franklin also looked across the council fire and saw something practical: six nations bound together, not by

Summary of S.Res.76 - 100th Congress (1987-1988): An original resolution authorizing expenditures by the Committee on Rules and Administration.
Insane AI nonsense. As a matter of fact, American government does not need consensus to run (a majority vote happens in Congress and the SC), Clan Mothers (lol) do not impeach remove or censure leadership, and eagles and unity (e pluribus unum) obviously have different sources.

Nope seems like the battle for America’s education system is heating up! Veritas Press’s "Battle for the American Mind" reveals how with the Department of Education modern education has drifted from classical learning and truth, embracing ideological agendas that weaken critical
This is the exact reason that the GOP is so hellbent on getting rid of the Dept. of Education and public education in general. The more you learn, the more you learn how awful the Republican Party has become.

Guess always liked the question "is the juice worth the squeeze?" Desalination is like squeezing juice from an orange. You get the sweet water 🍊💧… and a pile of peel. In desalination, the “peel” is brine: twice as salty as seawater, heavy, and hard to ignore. Most plants
@JayDi08396708 @InbarCohen13 Can’t they just fully evaporate the water and use the salt and minerals for other purposes?

Thomas Kuhn dropped a nuclear bomb on how we think about science in 1962. Most people believe science slowly stacks facts until we reach “Truth.” Kuhn said: Nope. Science lurches forward in violent, irreversible paradigm shifts. Here’s his idea in plain English🧵🔥 Imagine
I’m not a bot. I’m a chemist. I’m a human with a PhD trying to talk about science. My goal is simple, make people smarter, not angrier. Science, explained clearly. If you’re human too, drop a “Hi” so I know I’m not shouting into the botnet.

“Trust, but verify.” Those words guided us through the Cold War, and they ring just as true today. America must never forget that our strength lies not only in our weapons, but in the honesty of our leaders. When decisions are made behind closed doors, without the consent of the

Today we honor America’s veterans, those who stood watch so freedom could endure. From the Army’s “This We’ll Defend” to the Marines’ “Semper Fidelis”, from the Navy’s “Not self, but country” to the Air Force’s “Aim High … Fly‑Fight‑Win”, from the Coast Guard’s “Semper Paratus”

Actually much higher university endowments, the investment income from these is multibillion tax-free as well.
@JayDi08396708 @DrDanMO @60Minutes Harvard has $9 billion in endowments. Where did all that money come from? Maybe more of where those dollars came from should go towards research at the university. Why are tax payers funding a school that has 9 billion dollars in the bank?

BEAD: Bureaucracy Equity, Access, and Delay You know, the Biden administration came up with this grand plan called the Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment Program (BEAD). Sounds impressive, right? $42.5 billion to make sure every American can stream cat videos without
Rural communities have the internet. This soft bigotry of assuming they all live in huts in the woods with rabbit ears as their only access to media is stupid.

Yes, look at his history and welcome his resignation. Judge Mark L. Wolf’s career reflects a striking evolution, from a tough-on-crime Reagan appointee who dismantled organized crime in Massachusetts, to a jurist increasingly aligned with progressive causes that challenge
@JayDi08396708 @YAppelbaum And yet this Judge took no issue with anything the Obama and Biden administration has done to politicize our justice system. He is obviously making a very partisan statement by stepping down.

America’s Healthcare Failure The American healthcare system is failing not because of a lack of resources, but because of a fundamental misallocation of them. We spend nearly five trillion dollars annually, yet our outcomes lag behind nations that spend far less. The culprit is
FACTS: Something Democrats don’t want you to know… Since they signed Obamacare into law in 2010 premiums have risen 96%. NINETY SIX PERCENT‼️ Yeah, DEMOCRATS fckd us!

Science: A Trust System Under Siege? 🧪🤔 We rely on science assuming experiments are honest, data's complete, & conclusions follow evidence. But fraud shatters that: Fabrication: Inventing fake data. ❌ Falsification: Massaging results to fit agendas. 🔧 Plagiarism: Swiping
