We went through this cycle late 50s-70s, lowering standards. By 1980, Harvard, Stanford returned to standards, @urichmond looked to lower theirs. Chem Dept faculty said, No, others are returning to standards! By our slowness we've avoided a grave mistake! #RVA @NBC12 @RTDNEWS
#Science learned how to bridge achievement gaps. Answer: Very hard work, summer STEM camps, remedial summer work as needed; summer research programs. @NIH @NSF both fund these. Young black female sci from rural NC who made 1st mRNA vax is an #NIH program alum. It was late 60s-70s

Guess you want to ignore this story too, @RTDMPW Systemic racism is press & pundits refusing to cover the story of a truly diverse @VA_GOP slate since it doesn't fit the racism explanation. #Moms made #ParentsMatter they found @GlennYoungkin & became #ParentsForYoungkin
The overlooked story is that RPV made a conscious decision to move the party toward mainstream & recruit diverse candidates. The ranked choice voting in its primary, as in NYC seems to have worked well, at least with this N=2 sample
Why don't you interview her @RTDMPW ? It may help build bridges. She's really remarkable, heroic, as are all top 3 GOP slate just elected. That's part of this story too.

@MSNBC Succinctly put by retired AF Col @RichAndersonRPV TM
Desperately trying any #lie to smear @GlennYoungkin & make election abt Trump or race. It’s neither. It’s parents legitimate fears for children’s safety in schools, covering up sexual assaults of 2 HS girls by Dem GA
This Va election isn’t about race as TM & Dem narrative are spinning it. That’s a battle that grabs press & emotions & attention away from real issues that @GlennYoungkin addresses on public safety,school safety, McAuliffe lowered school standards so now lowest US #Math scores
And Va economy, which Bloomberg data shows grew only 0.2% over last 2 yrs despite GovVa claims of strong economy based on $2.6 billion surplus but @Jeffersoninst data showed the surplus is from major tax hikes by BlueGA 2019-2021. Truth is bad for Dems this year, so #Lies & Spin

"When America’s school boards start calling in the Feds, you know we’re in a bad place." No kidding but NOT the way @KarenAttiah asserts. I'm appalled it is considered acceptable to call @TheJusticeDept & weaponize @FBI against PARENTS as TERRORISTS in America! NO WAY @JoeBiden
Putin's system just classified Navalny as a terrorist. Navalny is already in prison. That's the biggest difference here. This outrage is exactly comparable to the police state in Russia. I'm a Democrat but not this kind. @JoeBiden WHY? You've hurt all Democrats running this year.
The letter they sent contains implicit threats about the loyalty of theri 90,000 members to @JoeBiden and @TheDemocrats You did NOT have to do excactly as THEY dictated to you and use the #PatriotAct !! SHOCKING. You have handed the perfect issue to @GOP
