Dear #MAGA and #Trump2024,
If you can watch this four minute video and not accept that you have duped, bamboozled, tricked, deceived, manipulated, hoodwinked, snookered and suckered then you are trapped in a cult.

One vote kept Gloria Johnson from being expelled. It was Justin Pearson's vote right before he was vote out. But, she didn't let the #TNLeg off the hook, she said that the color of their skin was a big part of why Justin Jones & Justin Pearson were removed. #TBATs #Tennessee3
"I saw the real-life versions of the charter takeover featured in Abbott Elementary's recent episodes. The sitcom version was funny. The real-life version was downright cruel." dianeravitch.net/2023/04/04/… #TBATs

"Being American is more than a pride we inherit,
It's the past we step into, and how we repair it."
"Repair" is the key word. #BlackHistoryMonth #TBATs @IllinoisBATs @IndianaBATs @iowabats @MissouriBATs @MNBATs1 @Wisconsin_BATs @ArkansasBATsA @LouisianaBATs

Congrats to Oregon BAT Tricia Snyder, Secondary Teacher-Librarian of the Year. We also honor our Jean Kuczka who died protecting students from a gunman in her St. Louis school. She died a hero but teachers shouldn't have to be this kind of hero. facebook.com/BadassTeachersA… #TBATs

Now that the election is over, let's concentrate on solving problems like the teacher shortage. We need to keep the ones we have & make the career more attractive to others. #TBATS #SupportTeachers .@LouisianaBATs .@ArkansasBATsA .@MissouriBATs .@KentuckyBATs .@MemphisbatBa

Vouchers hurt public schools. It's just one more way extremists try to undermine, underfund, and overtake public schools. #TBATs #SupportPublicSchools .@MIBATS .@ArkansasBATsA .@MNBATs1 .@LouisianaBATs .@iowabats .@IndianaBATs .@IllinoisBATs .@Wisconsin_BATs

Public dollars should go for the Public Good & NOT into the pockets of private interests.

You have concerns about a book? Fine. Tell the teacher & librarian to put their name on the "No" list. But don't deny other kids the right to read what interests them.
Respect Intellectual Freedom. #TBATs #ReadBannedBooks .@massbats .@NYStateBATs .@NJBatsa .@BadassTeachersA
