We ought to have an I for an I policy (idiots for immigrants) for the agents and their supervisors who don't follow due process. When there is a court order to release someone who was imprisoned without due process, the agent and their sup go to prison instead. Sentence: same as for kidnapping.

There's been so much in the news lately, this one seems to have flown under the radar. Extremely sad though and counterproductive to resolving our nations teacher shortage. Or you know, going to Mars. www.the74million.org/article/educ...

Education Dept. Cancels Over $600M in Grants for Teacher Pipeline Programs

Many of the efforts focused on increasing teacher diversity, which now, officials say 'is inconsistent' with the administration’s priorities.

This is awesome! In the midst of our own US orange nightmare, don't forget about Ukraine fighting for their very survival, and for the same freedom and democracy that we have enjoyed for over 300 years. Slava Ukraini!! 💙 💛

Yep, and...? (Seriously though--2 thumbs up for the research and the facts. We need more of this.) "DOGE's savings page also does not include any evidence of fraud, waste or abuse in contracts, but does highlight ideological differences..." www.npr.org/2025/02/19/n...

npr.org

DOGE released data about federal contract savings. It doesn't add up

A new government tracker claims DOGE has saved billions from ending federal contracts. But an NPR analysis of the data finds the claimed savings don't add up.

Maybe not the most splashy news but if you want to know what's going on in the federal financial aid world, this article is for you. It gives me hope that folks are still talking about next year's FAFSA and future student loan repayment plans. I'm weird that way. www.nasfaa.org/news-item/35...

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do. Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

Due to massive public pressure & us fighting back, the White House has rescinded their illegal Republican Rip Off. We won this battle, but the war against Projects 2025 is still on. They stopped Medicaid, food stamps, & much more. We made that stop temporary, but they will try again.
