PHILADELPHIA — Moms for Liberty, a “parental rights” group that has sought to take over school boards in multiple states, is looking to expand those efforts across the country and to other education posts in 2024 and beyond. The effort is setting up a clash with teachers unions and others on the left who view the group as a toxic presence in public schools. The group’s co-founder, Tiffany Justice, said during its annual summit over the weekend in Philadelphia that Moms for Liberty will use its political action committee next year to engage in school board races nationwide.

    Crooks and Liars, Sunday - 01/12/2025 - 11:20 AM

    Removing the stain of Trump's presence at Jimmy Carter's funeral. As it should have been. Source: The Daily Beast Kamala Harris’ social media post honoring Jimmy Carter seemingly slighted Donald Trump as the vice president shared a snapshot from the late president’s funeral featuring all living U. S. presidents, except for her political rival. The wide angle photo, posted to her Instagram on Saturday, appeared to crop out Trump, who was seated next to Barack Obama during the ceremony. Followers were quick to point out the president-elect’s exclusion with one user writing “Best photo crop of the decade.” “This crop is legendary,” another commenter added. I can't imagine anyone saying something similar when Trump kicks off in a few years. President Jimmy Carter loved our country.

  • Immigrants in Denver weighing options — from self-deporting to fleeing to Canada — ahead of Trump presidency
    Denver Post, Sunday - 01/12/2025 - 08:00 AM

    Maynebel Quevedo doesn’t want to be stereotyped as a lawbreaker just because he’s Venezuelan. And he’s adamant that he shouldn’t be lumped in with migrants “that did bad” — a worry that reflects the impact of the rhetoric used by President-elect Donald Trump, who often focuses on the crimes committed by a small minority of the people who have crossed the American border.
