Why would you tell Morbz to go fuck himself for making a (reasonable) stock criticism of charter schools? If schools need to experiment, or if they need autonomy, districts can permit those things. Charters help segregate districts by race, class, parental involvement, etc. They provide fewer services, focus on the most profitable students, and do things that would be clear civil rights violations in public schools. They're generally slightly less effective than public schools in the vast majority of districts, and it's only in districts where students are most vulnerable that they have a slight edge.

If states and districts really cared about competition and quality, they would work within the state and district systems. I can appreciate non-profit charters to a degree, but parental and student choice still help segregate districts, and I imagine they do so worse than magnet school and academy programs, where the segregation happens at the school site.

So you're a teacher, and I'm sure a good one, and we can criticize a systemic problem without putting you down.

Trump fired Comey because Comey is extremely tall and has huge hands.

BREAKING: Trump has fired James Comey, per @PressSec

Crazy times

this seems like potentially a big deal

New FBI Head: BARRON

on the recommendation of Sessions and deputy attorney general

lol at the idea he fired him because he overstated a criticism of huma abedin and wrote a letter of apology, which is how the washington post is currently reporting it.

holy shit

Comey did just basically lie under oath tho

can you fire an FBI director that's actively investigating you?

mildly nauseous tbh

xp
John Barron or Barron Trump?

hey off topic but didn't sessions kind of do the same thing during his confirm? or is that not technically "under oath"? i am dumb.

Comey's fuckup at the hearings gave Trump a perfect pretext for canning him. Wonder if Comey regrets handing him the election

Sure, Trump doesn't care how NAGL it is. xxxps

jfc what ghoul are they going to tap to replace him?

if trump was firing people for lying under oath then filing a letter of correction then sessions would be fired too.

let's be real, he transparently wants his own man at the fbi, and that's how it's going to play.

OH MY GOD the second paragraph

FBI Director Comey has been "terminated and removed from office." pic.twitter.com/z2or0M6oJB

independent counsel is coming -- guaranteed

didn't nixon do this too?

Trump probably figures this is a genius move enabling him to kneecap the FBI investigation, he's probably correct.

Senate has confirmation authority over the FBI, yeah?

i can't wait until rudy giuliani is head of the FBI : )

Nixon fired the AG. lol u think he fired Hoover?!?

Comey proved to be a disasterously politically inept appointment as FBI director, but Trump firing him today just makes Trump look even more guilty of collusion with Putin.

btw, it was framed as Trump "accepting the recommendation" of Jeff Sessions to fire Comey. Sessions is probably the most powerful person in the Cabinet right now, because he actually has some real world political experience and some knowledge of how the federal government works.

he fired AG Richardson after he wouldn't fire the independent counsel Cox.

independent counsel is coming -- guaranteed

ya think? who's gonna push for it, McConnell?

uber : city metro system : : charter schools : u.s. public education system many xps

Just when we'd all mostly descended into a horrified level of tedium, things get demonstrably interesting again, in that fresh "who the fuck even knows what's next" way.

Sessions is probably the most powerful person in the Cabinet right now, because he actually has some real world political experience and some knowledge of how the federal government works.

otfm, he's the most dangerous ogre they've got

xp

a GOP hack on MSNBC just moaned: "This is a huge gift for the Democrats."

he's totally gonna nominate Giuliani isn't he lol

donald trump is under investigation by the fbi and just fired the director of the fbi

can't wait for his tweets

Comey cost @HillaryClinton votes. Comey mislead Congress re Huma forwarding Hillary's emails. Trump fires Comey. Anybody else confused?🤷🏻‍♀️

Not a chance of an independent counsel or any real investigation unless Dems manage to retake the house in 2018.

John Barron or Barron Trump?

Best confirmation hearings ever if he does.

I can see the Senate's Gruesome Twosome asking for one.

I shouldn't say "independent counsel" -- "special prosecutor," I shoudl have written.
