Come on Mother Nature, where is our Spring? My daffodils are in full bloom, among the snowflakes. Just doesn’t seem right.

The new Indiana Schools Superintendent is now saying the state needs to take a more proactive role to monitor charter and private schools. Really, after how many years of failing grades, they just now noticed that there is a problem?

The teachers in Oklahoma are on strike. Governor Mary Fallin compared the teachers striking for more school funding to “a teenage kid that wants a better car.” Look at the pictures posted online of their decrepit textbooks and broken and unsafe chairs and then think about that quote again.

Looking forward to the stock market genius taking credit for the 700-point Dow drop.

Faith Academy in Merrillville cannot accept any new voucher students after earning a “D” and an “F” rating in consecutive years. Good, that is a start, but all of their funding should be taken away. What kind of education are these students getting, and why is the state continuing to accept this sub-par charter school?

The only way to stop the gerrymandering, the voter suppression and the tampering is to make sure that everyone votes. Get a current a ID, and make sure that you are registered to vote, and then VOTE!

Can someone tally-up all the money that Scott Pruitt will need to re-pay on his way out the door?

Does EPA chief Scott Pruitt think that he is the President? He wants his staff to drive through Washington D.C. using lights and sirens just so that he can get to his restaurant and the airport without having to wait. That alone, should be a fireable offense.

Madeline Albright writes “Fascism — and the tendencies that lead toward fascism — pose a more serious threat now than at any time since the end of World War II.”

This is hilarious. So, Cohen paid Stormy $130,000 to keep quiet about sex she didn’t have with Trump, and Trump made her sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement, not to talk about the sex they didn’t have, but he didn’t sign it, nor did he know about it. Got it.

Rudy Giuliani is getting divorced from the woman he married after dating her while still married to his second wife whom he married after having married his cousin. This makes perfect sense because of conservative family values.

Trump’s mouth is often a gift to his enemies. No wonder his attorneys don’t want him to talk to the Special Counsel.
