@matthewjdowd This is my favorite. 1 John 3:17&18, “If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person? 18 Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.”
I hope our Gov calls for distance learning until Sept 30 for public schools, and allows private schools to make their own decisions. I understand that some parents want to send their kids back to school with no restrictions, and they should have that right, if they pay for it.

I'm seeing a lot of comments "if we impeach trump again, the Senate will just let him off again."
Doing the right thing should NEVER be dictated by the WRONG things we think people will do, or how unpopular the decision will be.
Right matters.

...a combination of keeping student groups small and requiring masks and some social distancing helps keep schools and communities safe, and that younger children rarely spread the virus to one another or bring it home.”

Good article. It references Israel, South Africa, and Finland. However, looking at a per capital basis, the USA has THREE TIMES the amount of COVID-19 positive cases, vs. each of those countries.
Notice the photo-there are FIVE KIDS in that class.

We could all do very well in he USA, if our student-teacher ratio were FIVE TO ONE!
Here is my takeaway, “When Science looked at reopening strategies from South Africa to Finland to Israel, some encouraging patterns emerged. Together, they suggest...
How many kids have to die, before we choose to value them?
I’m old. (Of course, my wife would correct me and say, “oldER.”) This is the beginning of my 28th year teaching, and it’s been a very fulfilling career.
“We’re very much going to put pressure on the governors and the schools to reopen,” President Trump said, despite a soaring rate of coronavirus infections in several states and an overall increase nationwide. https://t.co/uHjeQU7MeD
Many students will get sick when we return. Some of them will be hospitalized. Some of those will die. What number of dead children is acceptable? Any dead children, due to COVID-19, will be blood on society’s hands. Opening up schools without proper safety precautions
"They're of the belief that people will get over it or if we stop highlighting it, the base will move on and the public will learn to accept 50,000 to 100,000 new cases a day."
I’ll help:
2.9 million confirmed cases
130,000 dead

Mexico is closing IT’S border to keep US out. It looks like they may want to pay for The Wall after all.

@JalenRose, luv yur show. I said WP can’t tell blacks how 2 use the N wrd. I teach middle school (93% Latino, 2% Af-am, 5% white). I don’t let my black kids use the N word (no one else either). Only have 1 black kid in any class, don’t want other kids to think it’s okay. Cool?
Yes, it’s still 5 months until the election and it isn’t close to won. The takeaway is to stop being scared and risk averse all the time and just stand up — or kneel — for what is right, and let the chips fall.
Thanks, Senator. But the way I feel about you right now has gotta be how my black friends feel about me. Like, “it’s about time,” & “this is helpful, but there is more to do,” & “do you know what you are getting yourself into?”
I MUST do better.
