SINCERE QUESTION:

What is the "long game" Pelosi and Schumer are playing? What is the end result of their 7-dimensional chess game?

Will the kidnapped babies be reunited with their parents?

Will the misogynistic #abortion laws be repealed?

Will Trump and Barr resign?

What?
#PELOSI: "Thomas Jefferson tasked his Secretary of the Treasury to put forth an infrastructure proposal ....Teddy Roosevelt did his infrastructure big initiative ... We had hoped that we could give this president an opportunity to have a signature infrastructure initiative."
PLEASE explain what kind of "long game" involves the Democratic Speaker wanting to give Donald Trump a chance to be like Jefferson and Roosevelt?

What purpose does that serve?

Whose interests does that represent?

Which constituency is it meant to appeal to?

Seriously.

Friends, we're past the point of this person "got to Trump" or that person "got under Trump's skin." He and his GOP cronies don't give a crap. They've put in place an autocracy/kleptocracy and we need to face this new reality.
Corporate media is actively pushing the narrative that #Pelosi "played" or "baited" Trump. But last I checked, Trump, Barr, and their cohorts are trampling the rule of law. Kids are dying at the border. Women's rights are under assault. We're way past the point of taunting Trump.
Big media is working overtime to push this "taunting" narrative, but to what end?

Trump & Miller are torturing migrant families. Trump & #Barr are conducting a chilling investigation of the Russia investigators. Trump & #McConnell are stacking the courts.

He isn't "rattled."

This "investigate the investigators" is one of the scariest things I've seen in my 20 years in politics.

A hostile power attacked our democracy to game an election. A fair and thorough investigation was launched and concluded.

Now a corrupt AG is conducting a REAL witch hunt.
Much more on this chilling development here:
This is how to look at it:

OK, HERE'S HOW YOU DO #IMPEACHMENT:

Call only Republicans to testify.

Use only Republican quotes from the Clinton impeachment.

Start with #MitchMcConnell:

"Time after time, the President came to a fork in the road. Time after time, he chose the path of lies and lawlessness."
GOP #IMPEACHMENT QUOTES

Here's @LindseyGrahamSC:

“[Clinton] doesn’t have to say, ‘Go lie for me,’ to be a crime. You don’t have to say, ‘Let’s obstruct justice’ for it to be a crime. You judge people on their conduct, not magic phrases.”
GOP #IMPEACHMENT QUOTES

Here's @ChuckGrassley: "The true tragedy in this case is the collapse of the President's moral authority ... there is the issue of the abuse of power and authority. This White House has perfected the art of stonewalling around the truth."

Starting to think we're approaching a real breaking point in education. 15+ years of reform efforts have netted no gains in test scores, the only thing we seem to care about. On a cost-per-point basis, the US has the least cost-effective education system in the world.
It's incredibly silly to think the US can beat cram cultures like China or South Korea at the test score game, and parents watching their kids drag themselves through hours of soulless homework are starting to question whether that's the game we should care about winning.
I think if parents get more chances to see kids being generative — building real things, starting real companies, reading & theorizing w/o prompting, defining their own projects — they'll want that for their kids, despite the fear of losing the test score/college admissions race

#Thai authorities confirm that #ThailandCaveRescue operation to save #Thaiboys has begun. 18 divers entered the cave complex. Speculation 4-6 boys will be rescued first but, it’s important to remember that authorities have not confirmed this. #ThamLuang smh.com.au/world/asia/liv…
Latest statement from Chiang Rai Gov. on #ThailandCaveRescue Rescue operation was started at around 10:00 PM. (Thai local time) Hopefully the kids will be brought out one by one. We'll get the updated info later after 9:00 PM. #ThamLuang #Thamluangcave #Thailandcave #Thailand
It’ll take at least 12 hours with 18 officials to help every way possible. Expected time for the first boy to come out is at least 9 pm today. #ถ้ำหลวง #13ชีวิตรอดเเล้ว #ThailandCaveRescue #ThamLuang
