@katiehobbs @Emolclause Let's increase amount per student in education funding like Gov Whitmer just did. Use 1 Billion from the rainy day fund. Increase pay for everyone. Address teacher shortage.

@deannaMFstover Remember it's an intro class so use your concept map to teach some of those concepts. And you know how to design and structure assignments that lead to the final project! Have fun with it, even if it means trying a few different possible syllabi until you find the right mix.

@CFHoward1 Hi, yes you can use this haiku. I put over 1000 haiku on the platform and then collected them into a book that I put on Kindle. I don't have that many followers and I can't say that I connected to any writing community, except that there were a few people who always liked them.

@deannaMFstover Meet with faculty in those areas and provide them something they can use to promote DH and see if they want to add a DH assignment to their classes. Also see if anyone might attend a summer workshop about DH and designing an assignment for one class! Good luck.

@SenMcSallyAZ DeJoy is removing high volume mail processing machines in an election year with no explanations or replacements. Stop him from sabotaging USPS now.

@deannaMFstover So proud of you, Dr. D!

Trump’s domination
Armed forces surround White House
Tanks roll through our streets

Disturbing symbol
Trump’s militarized fortress
Barricaded King

Cloaked in religion
Trump visits religious sites
He’s no Prince of Peace

He fears protestors
No attempts to talk with them
Biden does Trump’s job

Trump’s dictator talk
He’ll crush any rebellion
War on civilians

Photo op needed
Peaceful protestors forced out
Trump’s path to church cleared

He stands stiffly proud
He holds his Bible for show
God of war not love
#TrumpDictator #TrumpWarOnAmericans #PhotoOp #politicalhaiku

[Dean Stover @DeanRStover]

White House lights go dark
Trump hunkers down in bunker
America burns

Trump can’t unify
He wants maximum force used
Protestors are thugs

Black Lives Don’t Matter
He ignores police reform
Police state preferred

Traitor in plain sight
Trump against anti-fascists
Whites must rise again

Twitter fact checks Trump
He needs his lies unquestioned
He threatens lawsuits

Same old Trump tactics
Fear and intimidation
Impose his world view

Liberal bias
Rs need to misinform
Free speech from the truth

[Dean Stover @DeanRStover]

Trump makes fun of masks
Politically correct
He rejects guidelines

Stupid Rs join him
Masks slow community spread
Patriots wear masks
#PatriotsWearMasks #PatriotsWearAMask #politicalhaiku

[Dean Stover @DeanRStover]

Trump can’t face the deaths
There’s too much he didn’t do
He has no answers

Distraction playbook
Bannon’s “flood the zone with shit”
Trump dumps twitter turds

Scarborough libeled
Marine un-American
Any subject will do
#Trump100KDead #TrumpFloodsZoneWithShit #politicalhaiku

[Dean Stover @DeanRStover]

One more black man dead
A cop pinned Floyd’s neck down hard
“I can’t breathe” last words

Black Lives Matter protests
The cop used murderous force
Cops tear gas the crowd

Public injustice
Protect and serve unequal
Racists systemic
