Students returning to Anchorage School District classrooms this week were feeling the consequences of significant cuts to teachers, transportation and sports programs made last spring, even as some cuts were later reversed. www.adn.com/alaska-news/...

Anchorage students, returning to school, see impacts of district cuts
Money appropriated over the summer allowed the Anchorage School Board to reinstate many cuts to nurses, sports and buses, and hire additional teachers before classes began.

Parnas: How much money was funneled through these banks to Epstein? Wyden: I think it’s certainly well over a billion dollars. One of the things we pointed out yesterday is that Deutsche Bank failed to properly report to the Treasury Department more than $250 million in suspicious transactions

I wish the media had the same urgency about the state of Mitch McConnell as they did for Kamala's W-2 from McDonald's in the 80s.

The fight over the NVRA’s quiet period goes beyond one state law or lawsuit. It is a fight over whether eligible voters will have meaningful protection from being wrongly removed from the rolls at the moment when the consequences are hardest to undo. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/fed...
democracydocket.com
Explainer: Federal law that protects voters from last-minute removal is at the center of Trump’s anti-voting war
If the Supreme Court weakens the quiet period, that protection could be replaced by a dangerous rule under which last-minute purges are barred only when states call them purges.

No, Laura. It’s not “Antifa.” It was Patriot Front, a white nationalist organization. They covered their faces because they’re cowards who don’t want to be identified. We’ve been saying for over a year that ICE officers shouldn’t be allowed to wear masks either. They are cowards also.
