Any follow-ups to report 4 days ago of theft - abduction? - of Darius, the world's biggest rabbit? This mystery cannot be left unresolved. bbc.com/news/uk-englan…
Some suspect the involvement of Dexter, the world's second biggest rabbit, who will inherit the championship title if Darius is not recovered.
I'm late to this fascinating report by @DemCorps - but it remains urgent reporting about the post-Trump GOP. It describes a bitterly divided party: 70% still in thrall to Trump, 30% against him democracycorps.com/republican-par…
@DemCorps Trump's defeat has left his supporters aimless, powerless, pessimistic, and alienated from politics. Real-world consequence: by spring 2009, the anti-Obama Tea Party had already come into being. There's no equivalent movement in 2021 to resist Biden.
@DemCorps Racially resentful pro-Trump Republicans find Biden unthreatening - and accordingly are reacting to Biden's recovery plans with interest and "what's in it for me?" curiosity rather than the fierce rejection with which they met Obama plans in 2009.
In 2020, Republicans dramatically gained votes among Latinos, especially men- and collapsed among whites, especially men. It’s not a very smart response to that predicament for Republicans now to make it harder for Latinos to vote. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
Anyway, read the article, it's full of data points that Republican pollsters and strategists know, but that Republican lawmakers ignore because they rely on false information from racist TV hosts. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
Maybe K-6 schools should cancel summer vacation in 2022 in favor of emergency catch-up reading and math programs?
Even pre-pandemic, summer vacation was a major cause of learning loss - and that loss (no surprise) hits weakest students hardest aera.net/Newsroom/Schoo…
The most politically important "great replacement" under way in the United States is the "replacement" of conservative Christians by their own liberal and secular children and grandchildren.
The nation's single most highly educated county is in Northern Virginia. 43% college educated. Biden won 83% of the vote. socialexplorer.com/blog/post/coun…
So when conservatives talk about preferring a smaller, higher-quality electorate - education is obviously not the selection criterion they have in mind.
