Minneapolis schools cancel classes after Border Patrol clash disrupts dismissal at Roosevelt Minneapolis schools closed for the week citing safety concerns after an encounter involving armed Border Patrol agents near Roosevelt High School.

β€œ'The guy, I’m telling him like, "Please step off the school grounds," and this dude comes up and bumps into me and then tells me that I pushed him, and he knocked me down,' an official at Roosevelt High School said. 'They don’t care. They’re just animals. I’ve never seen people behave like this.'"

Making Space: Teaching After Trauma Teachers sometimesΒ feel a need to change their lesson plans when traumatic events occur, but that may not be the best strategy.

Of all the pieces I've written, this is the one I find myself coming back to over & over again. Our trauma is never-ending ending & kids are in the midst of it. I don't see enough attention paid to how teachers navigate these times with students #EduSky

After viewing the clip of the event which took place in Minneapolis, Minnesota- he then proceeds to lie about EVERYTHING in it, aside from the fact that it is, indeed, "a horrible thing to watch."

Trump has been president for less than 5 years – about 2% of the history of this country. He's responsible for 22% of the national debt. The budget issue is a Republican long con that has worked spectacularly with people who don't believe in facts.

Teen Hannah Cairo's Mathematical Discovery Sends Ripples through Harmonic Analysis When she was just 17 years old, Hannah Cairo disproved the Mizohata-Takeuchi conjecture, breaking a four-decade-old mathematical assumption

I had an enlightening conversation with mathematician Hannah Cairo about how she broke a huge conjecture in Harmonic Analysis at just 17 years old, what being a transgender mathematician means to her and how math has supported her along her journey! πŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈ 🌊 ✨

Never before in the history of this nation has such a large redistribution of income been directed upward, for no reason at all

A lot of people don’t really understand the extent to which β€œfinancially stable” relies on a functional government and social safety net. The downstream effect of this many people losing their healthcare, their jobs, and their citizenship will be A LOT of financial instability across demographics.

The GOP passed a budget that will eviscerate health care in rural areas. They delayed much of the impact for after the midterms, hoping the public will think any discussion of the impending collapse is hyperbolic.

Local reporters have a chance to do service journalism that'll make a splash too.

SOTOMAYOR, J., dissenting
adjudicating this case. But if this Court wishes to permit the Government to flout the fundamental rights guaranteed by the Due Process Clause, it cannot avoid accountability for that lawlessness by tasking the lower courts with inventing a rationale. The Court's continued refusal to justify its extraordinary decisions in this case, even as it faults lower courts for failing properly to divine their import, is indefensible.

"In a democracy, power implies responsibility. The greater the power that defies law the less tolerant can this Court be of defiance. As the Nation's ultimate judicial tri-bunal, this Court, beyond any other organ of society, is the trustee of law and charged with the duty of securing obedience to it." Mine Workers, 330 U.S., at 312 (Frankfurter,
J., concurring in judgment). This Court continues to invert those principles. Today's order clarifies only one thing:
Other litigants must follow the rules, but the administration has the Supreme Court on speed dial. Respectfully, I dissent.

NEW: SCOTUS shoots down a federal judge’s effort to protect eight men from being expelledβ€”without due processβ€”to South Sudan, where they face torture and death.

when you say shit like β€œwho got to them?” or β€œthey were blackmailed” you’re painting them sympathetically. stop doing that. they’re not victims, they’re grown people who made a conscious choice.

No One Is Illegal On Stolen Landβ€”ICE Versus the Indigenous in MAGA's America Where would they send us?

Under Trump, ICE and border patrol are targeting and detaining Indigenous peoples. This piece doesn’t just tell a story. It challenges how we talk about borders, citizenship, and belonging.
