My wife is a teacher. Here’s excerpts from the special kids election edition of the @NYTimes being taught in some public schools this week.
Editors note: grown-ups should not read this
Apparently Trump thinks everyone should be able to buy fully automatic grenade launchers
Trump grew up in Queens but no mention that Kamala grew up in Canada
Specifics on how Trump’s dad made money but none on what type of economics Harris’ Dad taught
The full candidate section:
Personally I won’t be encouraging my daughter to knock on doors during the most contentious election of my lifetime. But that’s just me.
This part tracks with Harris’ previous statements that young adults make bad decisions
I have to agree with the NYTimes on this one. WWE stars are pretty cool

Apparently the electoral college is “weird”
More than weird:
Be sure to stay up late on a school night to hear what the MSM talking heads say about each candidate! 🤦♂️
“Because Trump refused to accept the results and claimed the election was ‘stolen’”
No mention of Bush v. Gore and the United States Supreme Court?
Advice on how to convince grandpa not to vote for Trump
Obligatory capital riot sidebar
Ok I’m sorry they do mention the 2000 election and Al Gore’s acceptance of the “finality” of the outcome
The big issues kids should focus on:
Health care
Gun violence
Public transit
Being nice
The environment
Taylor Swift is awesome!
Ask a Senator!
All democrats with a single republican at the very end
The full edition for you to decide on your own
