Thank GOD Burroughs is slated to undergo renovations in 2 years. But in the meantime, our kids should not have to suffer with no heat on the coldest days of the year. Let's figure this out asap @dcpublicschools@DCDGS
@DCDGS @CapitolRomance @dcpublicschools@MayorBowser Would you be willing to sit in your office for 10 hours in 21 degrees? The hallways & bathrooms have zero heaters & are freezing.
How many DC officials are willing to sit in an unheated office for 10 hours a day? B/c that’s what it’s asking my kids to do. Coats and hats r not enuf in 21 degrees. @DCDGS@MayorBowser@CMZParker5
“They cut limbs and genitals, they raped, they abused corpses. There were sadistic sexual acts.”
@UNWomenWatch can’t muster a statement condemning the rape of Israeli women & girls.
Is there a women’s organization that has forcefully condemned it? https://t.co/KWjnG5Co4L
@danhwright@STATter911@SegravesNBC4@dcdistrictdogs@MayorBowser@OUC_DC Do you remember when an older gentleman collapsed on Rhode Island Ave NE and died after 911 sent first responders to Rhode Island Northwest? (And fire fighters at the fire house refused to help without instructions from dispatch?) ugh. He died in front of his daughter.
@FaireComments@Zuk_DC@STATter911@maustermuhle@SegravesNBC4@dcdistrictdogs@MayorBowser@OUC_DC Exactly. This particularly area floods every time there is a hard rain- DC Water & DC FEMS know that. The failure to train was gross negligence and incompetence: flooding & loss of life were foreseeable outcomes. This could have easily been loss of human life as well.
OUC Director refuses to admit dispatch made a mistake when it communicated “water leak” instead of flood @ DistrictDogs. Her failure to say “we screwed up. I’m sorry” makes everything she says untrustworthy IMO. Leaders take responsibility. @OUC_DC https://t.co/svNKPgz6OE
How many more places will be marred by mass shootings? How many more children will be orphaned, like six-year-old William Cho? This isn’t about thoughts and prayers, it’s about taking real action.

BREAKING: @brotherjones_ a duly elected representative, has been expelled from the Tennessee State House for standing up for kids killed by guns. This is fascist, undemocratic behavior. #TennesseeThree
@mscacibaudaDCPS @dcpublicschools@DCPSChancellor@MayorBowser@DCDGS I wonder if the wait is related to the inequitable facilities in NE. Garrison was modernized in 2015ish. They probably have central AC, unlike many NE schools, who are still stuck with broken, unreliable boilers. Boilers can take a while to switch over. Still unexcusable.
@ngeecee @DustinRomeroArt @notcapnamerica@StaceyPlaskett Let’s not forget DC. We live in the continental US, pay state and federal taxes and have ZERO voting representation in Congress even though hundreds of thousands of people live here.
@shannonrwatts I’m a former FBI agent, I am incredibly familiar with guns. I also taught high school for 15 years. Here are my thoughts on why teachers shouldn’t carry https://t.co/gowqSwmblP
@petrowave4@NickTimiraos I think the $20B is ultimately passed onto banks in the form of assessments or higher deposit insurance premiums. Taxpayers aren’t going to eat that loss.
"When babies die at a church school, it is time for us to move beyond thoughts and prayers. Remind our lawmakers of the words of the British statesman Edmund Burke: 'All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good people to do nothing.'"

Congress has failed our children. Instead of banning weapons of war, they helped the gun industry make $11 billion from 13.7 million AR-15s produced since 26 kids/educators were killed in Sandy Hook.
@LiberTProsperiT@JoelAlfonsoLA@GovMurphy@PhilMurphy Armed security didn’t stop 14 kids from getting slaughtered at Parkland High. And hundreds of armed cops waited outside - for over an hour - while a loser slaughtered babies and teachers.
I will not give up on Nebraska children.
Failure isn’t an option because, if I fail, I’m failing children, and I’m not going to fail children.
Are you with me?

Love to sit in a windowless room in a school basement with other parents and talk about how one of the school staff in the room with you doesn't have a job next year because @MayorBowser hacked away at your kids school budget.
