MORE-UFT, an activist faction of the teachers’ union, tweeted a list of 22 @NYCSchools (as of last night 11pm) where teachers reported confirmed cases. The list did not include PS 267 in Brooklyn. @SusanBEdelman of @nypost

Sources say even @DOEChancellor & staff do not know the true number of #COVID19 positives @NYCSchools b/c @NYCMayor is afraid of leaks to press.

[Education Watchdog @ed_watchdog]

Word from my sources at @NYCSchools is that this years gag order on #COVID19 positive tests has even @FollowCSA administrators in the dark. All data is being kept btwn @nycHealthy and @NYCMayor to manipulate data before releasing to the public.

Unbelievable!! @KWPOLICE used “scared straight” tactics on 8yo boy with special needs. He's 3.5 ft tall and 64 lbs, but they thought it was appropriate to handcuff and transport him to an adult prison for processing!! He was so small the cuffs fell off his wrists!

You can’t know who @KamalaHarris is without knowing who our mother was. Missing her terribly, but know she and the ancestors are smiling today. #BidenHarris2020

@juliakmarsh @NYCMayor Any breakdown of "sparing no expense?" One consultant firm has charged up to $435 an hour to advise @DOEChancellor Carranza under a $1.2M contract.

City Hall is promising to lay-off 22,000 municipal workers in the fall due to deteriorating finances, but is offering a school reopening proposal that’s not funded for the year ahead. Reopening guidance is expensive and cost still unknown, but it doesn’t cost a dime to be honest.

WARNING: GRAPHIC. Lionel Morris laid motionless on a supermarket’s floor as he begged police to stop using a Taser on him. His cries echoed for almost 7 min. But a Conway, AR cop ignored his pleas for help & instead told him, “If you can talk, you can breathe.” Lionel later died.

Abolishing ICE isn’t a radical thing to do, it’s a humane thing to do.

The way this is set up - if you choose learn-at-home, you can’t change to hybrid until Q2; but if you choose hybrid, you can switch to home anytime - will have undecided parents choosing hybrid to cover their bases, but will be touted as legit sentiment. It’s not. @CTULocal1

[Chicago Teachers Union @CTULocal1]

CPS isn't in charge, by the way. Neither are we. Or the mayor. COVID-19 is in charge. And no amount of wishful thinking will make it go away. The only way to get back into our buildings is to suppress the spread, which in-person schooling will only exacerbate. #CTUSafeReturn

This is Louis DeJoy. He is the huge Trump DONOR who Trump made the Postmaster General of the United States. He is trying to DESTROY the US Postal Service to help Trump steal an election.

We need to make him famous.

1/2) Outrageous! Juan “Tony” Sancho was arrested for suspected public intoxication and was placed into "protective custody." Jackson Co. sheriff's deputies refused to let Tony urinate, instead forcing him to the ground where one pushed a knee into his neck for nearly a minute!
