Don’t forget the $8.2b district carry-forward balance at the end of last fiscal year- several times larger than the rainy day fund for the entire state. AZ’s school district industrial lobbying complex has literally been crying poor & receiving more $ than they can spend.

As always, Senator Kennedy makes the truth stick...
"Unless you were homeschooled by a day drinker, no one's confident that Iran is going to do anything." Sen. John Kennedy gives his blunt assessment about how he thinks Iran will behave after the Trump administration's new agreement with the regime. The Louisiana senator says it's impossible to know what the Islamic Republic's next move will be as the U.S. tries to curb its nuclear ambitions.

This is a really bad look @12News when your reporter, who is also reporting on these same groups, is coordinating with them at the legislature to defeat the same type of legislation he's myopically focused on. Or did @CraigHarrisNews become a lobbyist and we missed it?
BREAKING: The fake news "journalist" attacking school choice in Arizona–Craig Harris–is coordinating with a teachers union group called Save Our Schools. The lady in the picture is a Save Our Schools board member. They're chatting in a group called "ESA Confidential 12News."

🚨 VP Vance: Even the Second World War ended with an agreement. Factually: The US demand from both Japan and Nazi Germany was "unconditional surrender". And so it was. Either Vance is lying to sell a horrible deal he made, or he is a total moron and unfit for office

Which is why District schools need: charters, private schools, homeschool, ESAs...
Milton Friedman on how real reform happens: “You can’t reform any institution from inside because people don’t act against their own interest.” “The only way you reform institutions is by competition from the outside.”

“I know families from across the political spectrum, many families from both sides of the aisle who benefit tremendously from this program...ESA is for everyone.” Anti-ESA ballot initiatives funded by out-of-state special interests would disrupt the education of tens of thousands of K-12 students – including those with special needs. #DeclineToSign

Perspective matters. See below...
This article was written by a 26 yr old college student by the name of Alyssa Ahlgren, who's in grad school for her MBA. What a GREAT perspecitve..👍🏽 My Generation Is Blind to the Prosperity Around Us! I'm sitting in a small coffee shop near Nokomis (Florida) trying to think of what to write about. I scroll through my newsfeed on my phone looking at the latest headlines of presidential candidates calling for policies to "fix" the so-called injustices of capitalism. I put my phone down and continue to look around. I see people talking freely, working on their MacBook's, ordering food they get in an instant, seeing cars go by outside, and it dawned on me. We live in the most privileged time in the most prosperous nation and we've become completely blind to it. Vehicles, food, technology, freedom to associate with whom we choose.These things are so ingrained in our American way of life we don't give them a second thought. We are so well off here in the United States that our poverty line begins 31 times above the global average. Thirty One Times!!! Virtually no one in the United States is considered poor by global standards. Yet, in a time where we can order a product off Amazon with one click and have it at our doorstep the next day, we are unappreciative, unsatisfied, and ungrateful. ?? Our unappreciation is evident as the popularity of socialist policies among my generation continues to grow. Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez recently said to Newsweek talking about the millennial generation, "An entire generation, which is now becoming one of the largest electorates in America, came of age and never saw American prosperity." Never saw American prosperity! Let that sink in. When I first read that statement, I thought to myself, that was quite literally the most entitled and factually illiterate thing I've ever heard in my 26 years on this earth. Many young people agree with her, which is entirely misguided. My generation is being indoctrinated by a mainstream narrative to actually believe we have never seen prosperity. I know this first hand, I went to college, let's just say I didn't have the popular opinion, but I digress. Why then, with all of the overwhelming evidence around us, evidence that I can even see sitting at a coffee shop, do we not view this as prosperity? We have people who are dying to get into our country. People around the world destitute and truly impoverished. Yet, we have a young generation convinced they've never seen prosperity, and as a result, we elect some politicians who are dead set on taking steps towards abolishing capitalism. Why? The answer is this,?? my generation has only seen prosperity. We have no contrast. We didn't live in the great depression, or live through two world wars, the Korean War, The Vietnam War or we didn't see the rise and fall of socialism and communism. We don't know what it's like to live without the internet, without cars, without smartphones. We don't have a lack of prosperity problem. We have an entitlement problem, an ungratefulness problem, and it's spreading like a plague."

The Anti-ESA ballot initiative, funded by out-of-state special interests, puts at least 25,000 students at risk of losing their ESA scholarship dollars. Jaylee said it best, “Who is best positioned to decide what a child needs—a centralized system, or the parent who knows that child?” Decline to sign to protect the scholarships of at least 25,000 Arizona K-12 students!

Add this to the $4 M @NEUnion is spending in #AZ to take opportunity and scholarships away from AZ kids. This is what funding systems instead of kids looks like. #declinetosign
BREAKING: Teachers unions have already spent $423,000 to fight AGAINST protecting girls sports and parental rights in Washington state. The two initiatives will be on the ballot in November. National Education Association: $250,000 Washington Education Association: $173,000

With this press release along with @ThePeoriaMom’s press earlier release, we now know there are 2 board members who want an agenda item to waive privilege re: Centennial criminal investigation. Board policy 1-302.A specifically says “Agenda items will be added to a list of of future agenda items if two (2) or more members express interest in the topic.” Board President @JeffTobey_PUSD has the following options: 1. add it to the 6/9/26 agenda 2. add it to a list of tbd future items 3. violate policy and ignore the requests all together What do you think he will do given past behavior?
❗️PEORIA SCHOOL BOARD❗️ Do the right thing !!!! STOP allowing the unions, institutions and special interest groups run our district! ❗️ THEY WANT TO ABOLISH MANDATED REPORTING ❗️

WHAT WE GIVE ISRAEL The standard US military aid package is $3.8 billion per year $3.3 billion in Foreign Military Financing plus $500 million for joint missile defense programs. Israel must spend most of this on US-made products and services, and by 2028 essentially all of it must be spent in America. WHAT ISRAEL GIVES BACK 1. F-35 R&D Savings: 55 billion Israel resolved multiple technical issues during the F-35’s early development, reducing US R&D costs by an estimated $55 billion and accelerating deployment timelines.  The total F-35 program cost was $55 billion in R&D Israel’s combat testing effectively saved the US from having to discover and fix those problems on their own dime. 2. Intelligence Value: equivalent to 5 CIAs (75 billion/year) General George Keegan, former Chief of US Air Force Intelligence, stated that Israel’s intel value equals “5 CIAs” providing a 400% return on investment on the $3.8 billion aid package. One CIA budget runs approximately $15 billion.  Five times that equals roughly $75 billion worth of intelligence annually for $3.8 billion in aid. 3. Strategic Base Value: $15–20 billion/year As stated by Admiral Elmo Zumwalt and General Alexander Haig, Israel is the largest US aircraft carrier that does not require US military personnel on board, cannot be sunk, and is deployed in a critical region sparing the US the need to manufacture, deploy, and maintain real aircraft carriers with ground divisions, which would cost the US $15–20 billion annually.  4. F-35 Export Multiplier: $40 billion in sales, $173 billion backlog Israel’s battle-tested performance and upgrades to the F-35 contribute to $40 billion in US exports and a $173 billion backlog for US industry.  Israel essentially serves as the world’s most credible advertisement for American weapons. 5. Jobs and Economic Output: 255,000 jobs, $72 billion annually The F-35 economic engine alone supports 290,000 US employees and $72 billion in annual economic output.  Israeli stakeholders hold contracts with over 1,000 American companies across 48 states, DC, and Puerto Rico. Why do people need to lie about this? Because they have nefarious reasons. There’s no other reason to lie about this stuff.

Peoria Unified filed a motion to block police access to records in a teacher sex scandal — without notifying all board members or holding a full board vote. Attorney-client privilege doesn’t protect institutions from accountability when children are the victims. Students need protection. Parents deserve full transparency. #SandraForArizona #LD4 #EducateProsperProtect

Any school board member who chooses to protect adults, staff, or the institution over children being harmed has no business serving our kids and deserves to be recalled. I’m looking directly at you, @JeffTobey_PUSD and @beckyproudfit. 👀 Tick tock. ⏰ We’re laser-focused on November for now, but after that it’s game on. You have five months to do the right thing and put children first. Choose wisely. @PeoriaUnified11
