I'm dying at the hosts of The View going innnnnnn on guest-host Savannah Chrisley for saying Donald Trump isn't racist. they tore her ass up lol

Savannah: What's so hard for me to witness is people stating that the president is a racist...he saved one of my best friends' lives, a Black woman

Sunny: So he has a Black friend? He's a racist.

Savannah: No.

Whoopi: *gives 20 examples of Trump being racist*

THIS IS THE BEST DESCRIPTION OF TRUMP AND HIS MAGA FOLLOWERS THAT I HAVE SEEN TO DATE

[Democratic Wins Media @DemocraticWins]

BREAKING: The Kamala Harris campaign just released their first ad. Retweet to make sure every American knows who Kamala Harris is and what is at stake this November.

She needs a reteach.
He needs food.
They need sleep.
She needs empathy.
He needs attention.
They need directions.
She needs time.
He needs therapy.
They need a shower.
She needs friends.
He needs money.
They need a smile.

And that's just one fraction of one period of one day.

Teachers: I’m waiting for THE COPY MACHINE THAT SIMPLY WORKED. How about you?

[Abby Norman @abbynormansays]

I quit my teaching job and now make more bartending for 15 less hours week. Also I get blamed for way way less and get told thank you way way more. No lesson plans or grading papers.

Remember this when people ask about the teacher shortage.

No one outside the classroom this year will get this. I'll say it with my chest so your arrow can find its mark. I've never been so excited for a school year to end. I am not the teacher I could've been. I will have the summer to reflect and return to the one I was called to be.

A friend received a call from their son’s school to say he hadn’t been attending online lessons. Turns out he had recorded a video of himself sat at a table looking up and down occasionally and played it to his webcam whilst he went back to bed. 🤦‍♂️

@brewerhm It was amazing!!!

[Dan Rather @DanRather]

Can you even begin to imagine what would happen if these caravans were made up of Black people? The thought experiment is the very definition of systemic racism and White privilege.

[John Nichols @NicholsUprising]

No president has ever lived so long, or used his years so honorably, as Jimmy Carter, who today turns 96.

The first days back to school under covid education felt like someone told me and all teachers, “you know how to ride a bicycle, right? Good, here’s a unicycle…it’s basically the same thing.”

[Hamish Brewer @brewerhm]

I think my teacher evaluations for the year are done, goes something like this: You pivoted, adapted, you were flexible & persevered, you were resilient, you showed grace, you worked your tail off & you did it! Thank you, thank u! What educators have accomplished is unbelievable!
