@kcpteachertips Kimiko!! I saw this exhibit a few weeks ago and it blew me away!! I kept getting in trouble for getting too close to the pieces because I needed *every* detail lol. Looks like you enjoyed it too!!

[Laura Ferdinandt @LFerdinandt]

@CTULocal1 thanks for all you’re doing to keep us safe! I’ve never been more proud to be a member of CTU. Will the office be open today? I’d love to come pick up a sweatshirt and some signs for Thurs! (just in case)

However this goes, if Democrats win the Senate, they must:

1. End the filibuster.

2. Push for statehood for PR and DC.

3. Add two justices to Supreme Court.

4. Aggressive gerrymandering reform.

5. Aggressive voting rights act.

Fuck norms. Let’s be a democracy.

[Laura Ferdinandt @LFerdinandt]

Solid, solid plan. I’d buy a ticket for every game.

@MattMartinChi Thank you @MattMartinChi ! I live in ward 47 (and used to teach in 47, too) but now I teach in Little Village and my school needs WAY more support than we get! Our parents can’t hold fancy fundraisers (nor should they have to) but our kids still deserve better than what they have

@PodSaveAmerica @crookedmedia What was your most memorable live crooked media event in 2018 and why? Tell us some tidbits we wouldn’t know just from listening/watching!

I don't know who you know or how old they are, but nobody else has ever lived through a moment in the American presidency like this.

We're the first.

I see no reason to continue remembering how to spell "Mississippi"

Romaine lettuce kills people across the country and is immediately removed from shelves everywhere.
I wonder what would be different if the lettuce growers donated millions to political campaigns?

7: Gov seats flipped (most by any party since 1994)

7: New majorities in state legislative chambers & 8 this cycle

5: Repub supermajorities in state legislatures broken this cycle

At least 380: State legis seats flipped this cycle

Dems winning 3 of the 4 House seats in Iowa -- a state Trump won by 9 points -- but Steve King being the one Republican who held on pretty much sums up the evening

Your campaign slogan is your last name + ":" + the last text you sent.

Mine is

"Dranger: yeah not everyone drives on Sunset Blvd"
