Did you vote for this?

Trump deported home health aide Heidy Sánchez who was breastfeeding her 1-year-old US citizen daughter who has health issues. The baby girl was so traumatized that she had to be taken to the hospital.

The father is in the US legally and Heidy was awaiting a response to a request to become legal. There was no due process. There was no option for her to take her daughter with her.

Did you really vote for this? Or are you just so ashamed that you voted for this that you are in denial?

@heyitsaesh Uh-oh. What was I commenting about? 🤣

[Zack Goodwin (he/his/him) @zackaintwhack]

@HelenFaith1 Sounds like it! I apparently will never lose "ope" from my vocabulary. 🤣

[Zack Goodwin (he/his/him) @zackaintwhack]

@barkowitz I pan to do the same, Dan!

@ItsJustKarla I feel like I rarely see the disabled or physically challenged included fully. #Fachat #EMChat

[Zack Goodwin (he/his/him) @zackaintwhack]

@ClockHourAngie @Dcollier74 Of course!! Great idea.

[Zack Goodwin (he/his/him) @zackaintwhack]

@ClockHourAngie @Dcollier74 To build on that, I'm sorry people said that to you. You were just trying to help your students.

[Zack Goodwin (he/his/him) @zackaintwhack]

@ClockHourAngie A few hundred a day, but we're getting there!

I have noticed that Dr. Biden, our FLOTUS, seems always to be referred to in the press as a 'community college professor' instead of simply 'professor.' Are they trying to say this is lesser somehow, or greater? To me it reads like the former, which is very unfortunate....

@SheridanFinAid I had a student tell me angrily once, at a counseling session about repayment, "You never told me my Perkins Loan was a loan!"

@ItsJustKarla Right? It'll be cooler than at home in Las Vegas, but I suspect more humid.... 😓

[Zack Goodwin (he/his/him) @zackaintwhack]

@bmckib Yes! It's something I deeply respect about being at a NV public. Residency is about...residency. Nothing more.

@mslo_wins @WiscFAA Congrats, Mandy!! 👍🎉

A. Wayne Johnson — the top student loan official in Trump admin who resigned to run for Senate on a platform of student debt cancellation (https://t.co/045OMPRbBY) — says he would sue to block Biden from canceling student debt.

(Unclear what legal standing he would have)

@bouletbrothers Thrilled! And season 1 is "currently unavailable"....😭😭😭

[CNN @CNN]

The Biden administration is planning to extend a pause on federal student loan repayments through Aug. 31, an administration official says

@HigherEdDave So true, Dave! I think many in our profession might be especially comfortable with that grey area....
