The article did not call public school advocates “objectively dumb.” It called an inconsistent ARGUMENT made by opponents of school choice objectively dumb. If you’re going to fact check, start by not lying.

Last week, TSG SC's @AndrewYatesSC attended the 52nd/12th @ALEC_states & ACCE Annual Meeting in Indianapolis. As a past President of ALEC Action, Andrew connected ALEC colleagues such as Lee Schalk and Lars Dalseide and with clients as well! Andrew discussed at the conference a range of topics affecting Americans across the country, including education opportunities, energy diversification, and various ways to help small businesses cut through red tape for a stronger economy.

[AFP-NC @AFPNC]

On top of including repeal of C.O.N. laws in their budget proposal, the North Carolina Senate just passed
S.B. 370, repealing Certificate of Need in NC! #ncpol

[Jason Huffman @HuffmanJE]

Just mentioned this to @WVMetroNews' @DaveA70. Bears repeating! @ALEC_states' Rich States, Poor States report ranked WV 16TH IN THE US for economic outlook. That's 7 ranks HIGHER than last year's report, one of the biggest improvements among all states. Folks, it's working...

[Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX]

For the first time in Texas history, our state has passed a universal school choice bill.

This is an extraordinary victory!

[yes. every kid. @yes_everykid]

VICTORY: The Texas House just passed SB 2, bringing universal education freedom one step closer to reality. This would be the largest ESA launch in U.S. history.

Thank you to @BradBuckleyDVM for being a true champion for Texas families! #txlege https://t.co/nnll30fArR

[Secretary Linda McMahon @EDSecMcMahon]

What the Texas House will vote on today is historic: returning control of education to parents who know what’s best for their children.

Thank you, Governor @GregAbbott_TX, @LtGovTX, and Speaker @Burrows4TX. What a great moment for freedom, families, and the future of education.

[Andrew Yates @AndrewYatesSC]

@MichaelLee4NC will do a. Fantastic job to continue the success we have seen across NC.

Super proud of my friends Speaker @PhilipGunnMS and @RussLatino for their big victory this week.

[Grant Callen @grantcallen]

Today we did it. Mississippi passed a bill that fully eliminates our income tax over the next 15 years and I cannot wait to see @tatereeves apply his John Hancock.

This movement started a decade ago and wouldn't have happened without Former Speaker @PhilipGunnMS. @RussLatino also played a key role when he was with @AFPhq & @EmpowerMS, authoring research and helping to find common ground between the Senate and House to get us to a lower flat tax.

Big reforms always require both chambers and this year @DelbertHosemann & @SenatorHarkins kept their eye on the prize. But it was the unwavering resolve of @tatereeves, @JasonWhiteMS, and @tlamar44 who kept pushing, kept making the case for the transformational power of eliminating Mississippi's tax on work, that got this done.

Let no one say Mississippi cannot be bold when bold action is required. Proud to be a Mississippian today and every day.

The Lone Star State is on the brink of Education Freedom! Huge thanks to @GregAbbott_TX, @BradBuckleyDVM, @Burrows4TX, and Texas lawmakers for leading the charge to empower students and families. #EducationFreedom #txlege
