DOGE has cut nearly $1 billion from the Education Department, decimating its research arm, the Institute for Educational Sciences. Confirmed cuts include PISA/TIMMS data collection/analysis; studies of disability supports; and a data report on school safety. 👇

Over the weekend, 1 week after @dcpublicschools told school leaders NOT to assure families, a principal told me "it's like the underground railroad among principals right now...we're all trying to protect our students & families without our supervisors finding out." 😢 THIS APPROACH IS HURTING PEOPLE. @MayorBowser @DMEforDC @DCPSChancellor @ChmnMendelson @BrianneKNadeau @Janeese4DC @RobertWhite_DC @chenderson

Amazon’s plastic packaging waste alone could encircle the globe 500 times: https://t.co/QqVFhbPvJH. We need to do better.

Use less, buy less, waste less.

Can’t get past the NYPD and Eric Adams putting on a ridiculous show of force to transport Luigi Mangione and make the ruling class feel better. And across town they’re using force to attack a strike and make the ruling class feel better. Rarely is the purpose of cops so obvious.

I'm always skeptical of research and rankings produced by commercial outfits and packaged to serve as cat bait for local newscasts, but these rankings were literally produced by a company that *sells a phone-tracking app*. The subtext isn't very discrete here.

Please sign, especially if you’re Georgetown-affiliated! Despite Brittany’s professor agreeing to let her take her exam early, Georgetown denied her accommodations. This is also a routine experience for disabled students at Georgetown — completely unacceptable.

If this country didn’t treat incarcerated people like they’re subhuman, this story would be all over every news platform. But because these are Black men and the US prison system is the evolution of American chattel slavery, people don’t care.

For over two weeks, Israel has blocked food aid to northern Gaza, leaving 400,000 Palestinians facing starvation.

On #WorldFoodDay, we examine the cost of basic food items in Gaza.

Wash Post headlines today silent on Israel's strikes on Gaza hospital, leading to deaths & burn victims. Meanwhile, reference to "Israeli defenses."

We need to #TeachOutsideTextbook about Palestine-Israel, & defend the educators disciplined for doing so. https://t.co/no0VzYHyG0
