My mom taught public school her entire working life. My aunt was a reading specialist. My sister & her husband are teachers now. I am not anti-teacher.
But something is grotesquely wrong with the way NYC public schools are run. #nozoomclassroom#5daysfulldays#keepNYCschoolsopen
@psllo@OpenSchoolsPHL ⬆️! Spoke to 5 preK-8 NYC Catholic/parochial schools. All w/ annual tuition less than 1/3 of what @NYCSchools spends/student at $29k. Old bldgs/no fancy ventilation. All 5 days in-person for all students, localized classroom closure here/there. Getting it done for kids-@NY_Arch
@JSegledi@heartland_grump@bennyjohnson Stop with the “Obama was a secret Muslim” nonsense.
Russia hacked the DNC to help Trump get elected.

@Rob4PA Tell us more about your “business expense” the private helicopter & how you became “Chief Financial Officer” of your family’s company at 19.
@SemyonG28888@VickieforNYC Stop calling him a jihadi terrorist when you have absolutely no evidence.
You just don’t like his politics. So criticize socialism. He had nothing to do with 9/11.
@BulwarkOnline@SarahAMatthews1 I don't understand why you are platforming this weak attempt to insult educated women. The bitter people I know are the dropouts.
@ReyRey_Stacy@FoxNews "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof" is the first sentence of the first amendment of the United States Constitution. WE don't ban religions, we prosecute crimes. https://t.co/IPsyj81Q00
@Linnylintruth@BlueGeorgia Trump Defense Syndrome: a malady afflicting committed Republican voters who defend Trump no matter how corrupt or incompetent he is
@Harris3866Keith@GBC_Press Enjoy spending billions to bomb Iran, Keith!
The Pentagon lowballs the cost up to now at 37.5 billion, and there's no retrieving the enriched uranium without ground troops. https://t.co/EJJr0oZdZF
@ArvindKaul6@cspan@CNN@NBCNews@FoxNews Google Maria Farmer.
She reported that Epstein & Maxwell's sex abuse to the NYPD, who referred her to the FBI, who did NOTHING.
This was in 1996.
Stop blaming the victim. Some women may have entered into a financial bargain with Epstein, many underage girls were raped.
@CarlosBtnoCigar@bennyjohnson They are rigged because the parties pick the voters and because of Citizens United, not because ballots are discarded or changed.
@heartland_grump@bennyjohnson They didn't air it live because Trump lies so much. You can watch his speech on any of their streaming platforms.
CBS handled it right, air it with fact-checking.
@Unfixable007@lawler4ny@GovKathyHochul You know Sherril wasn't in office when this happened, right?
Even if all of the 6,600 people who should NOT have been registered to vote actually did so, in a state with SIX MILLION SIX HUNDRED AND EIGHTY TWO THOUSAND registered voters, it's not enough to change an election.
@NassauExec Republicans have had FIFTEEN YEARS to come up with something to replace Obamacare, & all they’ve done is cut premium subsidies & try to throw people out of the program.
If they actually wanted to replace it with something that worked better, they would have done so by now.
@DaveGoecks@TheRealExitPlan@unusual_whales What?
Who do you think builds new housing & maintains buildings in the US?
Frequently, immigrants. Mass deportation drives food & housing costs UP.
@ycinnewyork@IMDibe I was EXTREMELY cool on Mamdani during his campaign but I admire the way he handled being called a cockroach; he didn't demagogue, he didn't divide.
Hope he doesn't follow through on the city-owned grocery stores, but I think his commitment to be a Mayor for every NYer is real.
@ycinnewyork I think you are reading this wrong.
Mamdani's personal safety is most compromised at public events where any nut who wants to kill a Muslim socialist can take a shot. He is actually safer inside Rikers.
(also, most of the ppl at Rikers have not been convicted of a crime)
