Never underestimate the power of large groups of stupid people.

He was the worst POTUS in history.
Impeached twice.
Convicted felon.
Tried to stage a coup.
Sold state secrets.

But hey …at least he isn’t an intelligent Black woman.

Maybe teacher unions could learn something from the UAW.

The United Auto Workers are currently demanding a 40% raise while my teacher union was ecstatic to receive a 2% raise. 😞

[NYSUT @nysut]

Ford, GM and Stellantis made a combined QUARTER-TRILLION DOLLARS in North American profits over the last decade. But @UAW members never got their fair share.

NYSUT stands in full #solidarity with autoworkers. Learn how you can join the fight: https://t.co/uixQAFLE4Z #StandUpUAW

Wondering how hot it’s been this week in our schools?

Here are ACTUAL thermostats from classrooms across NY. Enough is enough! Hot classrooms endanger educators and students + hinder learning.

We’re fighting for legislation to protect students from extreme heat. Learn more: https://t.co/olalxKPoqN

[Amy McBride Kochan @AmyKochan]

Extreme heat in classrooms can be very dangerous to everyone inside. Take action now at the @NYSUT MAC: ask lawmakers to establish a statewide maximum temperature in school buildings and facilities! https://t.co/cHSDbq5NYz
