Santos has all but admitted to breaking campaign finance law. RESIGN.

7.52 for eggs? That’s higher than the min wage!
Enough with corporations profiting while workers get squeezed. It’s disgusting.

The Atlanta-area district attorney investigating Donald #Trump’s effort to subvert the 2020 #election indicated today that decisions on whether to seek the indictment of the former #president or his associates were “imminent.”
Even if Google's intentions are entirely honorable -- not something you can take for granted anymore, sorry to say -- the plan to block even sideloads of certain apps is a betrayal of longstanding promises. https://9to5google.com/2023/01/23/android-14-block-install-outdated-apps/

@JRBuckley @juddlegum Yes, it is about destruction of public education. This has been a goal of the Right Wing for a long time. They’ll use any issue at all to make it happen. The focus on #LGBTQ right now is just a convenience for them. Public education, done right, teaches critical thinking skills and provides enough knowledge to bootstrap the process. This is antithetical to the conservative mindset which emphasizes control and conformity. I’m PROUD my kids were INDOCTRINATED by good public schools! I can’t say that I agree with all their ideas, but my kids (now adults) are really good at justifying and explaining what they say. That is something conservative religious schools will never produce.

So when are the Florida schools going to ban the Bible in school libraries? That is certainly not fit reading for children, by the DeSantis administration's standards!
I'm actually making a serious point here - if the classroom book bans ever go to trial, a real case could be made that it is predjucice to allow the exact same content that would get other books banned just because they are considered a specific religion's "holy" books. But what happens if the other books that are being banned are declared as "holy" by some other religion or denomination? Say the Metropolitan Church decides to canonize all those books that DeSantis wants to ban - now he is not only interfering with freedom of speech, but also freedom of religion. You can't say the Bible gets a pass because it is a "holy" book (assuming any court would even go there) unless you are ready to start splitting hairs about exactly what constitutes a "holy" book.
And all this might not be a big deal in the public schools - some of them may not have any Bibles in the building anyway - but it sure as heck would be a big deal for those #christofascist charter schools that DeSantis and his ilk love so much, as well as all the traditional "Christian" schools. If some court rules that all THOSE schools had to remove the Bible from their classrooms and libraries, suddenly the right might decide that book-banning is a really bad idea (or they might be okay with banning the Bible, which might still be a win for the kids who are being indoctrinated).
