I'd like to be alive when children don't fear this! An estimated 1.5 to 4.2 million children & youth experience homelessness in America each year. Researchers estimate that roughly 1.3 million infants, toddlers, and preschoolers—about 1 in 18 children under age six—experience homelessness annually.

For #BannedBooksWeek, author Patricia McCormick — whose SOLD was the most-banned book of the 2025-26 school year — visited our office to talk to us about the consequences of repealing young readers’ access to stories about sexual violence.

They should all be doing this because they know that he's a prolific liar and a con man with absolute bad intentions toward this country. If they don't, then they're complicit.

Billionaire families have spent $1.7 BILLION on the 2026 midterms so far — a 5,200% increase since the 2010 midterms. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day. Big Money is the root of our dysfunction.

How do we make teaching a sustainable career? We need: 🎒Education budget tied to the defense budget 🎒Teacher minimum wage 🎒Strong teacher unions 🎒Investment in the paraprofessionals that a kid needs to be their best learner and so teachers can focus on teaching

I think the banned news outlets should run clips on a loop every hour of Trumps greatest hits of lies and failures. In short, just report on him. Oldies but goodies.

A reminder that the Kennedy Center isn’t just a performing arts center, it’s a memorial to President John F. Kennedy and only an evil vindictive vile weak depraved narcissistic pathetic subhuman would spend every waking day trying to deface it and completely destroy it out of spite and jealousy.

If you managed to stomach the sky-high price of a ticket to a game today, you probably noticed the price-gouging didn’t stop at the stadium entrance. Concessions prices can be double or even triple what they cost just across the street. But there’s a way to crack down.

It appears that Trump’s claim last week that he negotiated a deal between Putin and Zelenskyy to stop bombing energy infrastructure was just another lie to manipulate markets. Every hour of every day, Trump lies about everything.

They started replacing the art they didn't appreciate, then: "Conservative groups and friends of the president staged events for free or at steep discounts, including a conference on 'ending Christian persecution.' The center threw parties and dedicated rooms to Trump donors and political allies."
Workers renovated Mr. Trump’s three theater boxes in the center, installing gold plumbing fixtures and tearing up newly laid tile whose color was not to the liking of the White House. In one email, a Kennedy Center staff member, Lisa Dale, alerted colleagues to Mr. Trump’s demand for a certain type of tree on campus: “Our Chairman loves maple trees and is insisting we plant maple trees from a very specific Grove by a very specific gardener. :) I actually love this about him!”
