Rep. Smith: Trump is saying that the law doesn't apply to him. When you have a leader of a country who says, 'I can do whatever I want, no other institution, no law, international or domestic, is a check on that,' I would challenge someone to explain to me why that isn't an authoritarian fascist approach to governing.

I hate what this platform has become. For what it’s worth to anyone left out there, we have forgotten Tracy Chapman’s fast car ode to relentless hope for a better future in the face of overwhelming odds and disappointments. It is not pointless, it is not AI, it is humanity.

WATCH: Teachers must be “mindful” about supplementing curriculum with monetized content they “don’t have any kind of control over,” sociologist Francesca Tripodi warns.

“Curriculum is highly controlled. … Teachers can’t just make up whatever they want to teach.”

Congrats to @alicetiara on her book “The Private is Political,” published today! Hear what she told “How to Fix the Internet” about online privacy as a political and structural issue rather than something that can be solved by individual action. https://t.co/5aceIP0JOT
