A federal judge ruled this mail-ballot rule could cost you your vote this close to an election, & blocked it. Trump's answer was to ask the Supreme Court to let USPS enforce it anyway. This is the fight that decides whether your ballot even counts. #CorruptTrumpRegime

A decade ago, Florida stripped a teacher of her license for sexually abusing a 16-year-old. Last year, she opened a private school there with ease. As private schools fueled by taxpayer dollars proliferate, states are choosing not to closely regulate who runs them or what they teach:
