When Jimmy Carter purchased the teachers’ union’s endorsement in 1979 by establishing the Department of Education, the USA was #1 in education.
46 years and $4.1 trillion dollars later, the USA is #40. We are, however, #1 in cost per student.
Jalen Brunson’s mom, Sandra, missed her connecting flight, had to fly commercial, and drove 1.5 hours from Austin to San Antonio just to make it to Game 5 on time.
She refused to take the team’s private charter so she could attend a charity event for kids in Harlem.
A mother’s dedication.

Josh Hart:
"Everybody wants to be the guy that scores the most, that puts the ball in the basket and that's not everybody's path. That wasn't my path and sometimes that's a tough pill to swallow but when you embrace that when you're a star in your role and you take pride in doing the little things that breeds winning basketball. For me as embraced as I was in this city wearing this jersey that sacrifice was easy. Some days it was tough don't get me wrong but you sacrifice for moments like this"
Solid game plan by Brown. Let’s come out and have everyone dribble the ball 30 feet from the basket until 5 seconds are left on the shot clock. Imagine being this unprepared with a chance to win the title #Knicks
Amazing to me it took everyone this long to realize what a 🤡 @RoKhanna is. This 🤡 is doing all this to run for POTUS in 28. He will get 2% In Iowa, New Hampshire, and/or South Carolina and then crawl back under his rock
It's not Graham Platner who is turning the Democratic Party into a laughing stock. It's every Democrat trying their best and twisting themselves into knots to rationalize standing by him. If you're gearing up to run in 2028, stay far away from Platner. Don't let someone else's baggage become your own. @JohnAshbrook from @RuthlessPodcast sums up in 30 seconds how foolish Platner is making Democrats look.
Five days after the LA election, Spencer Pratt falls to third place and a woman who hardly anyone voted for in person, Nithya Raman, totally dominated in mail voting to come in second. No one with a functional brain believes these results.
Election night batches in Los Angeles:
🔵 Karen Bass: 38%
🔴 Spencer Pratt: 28%
🔵 Nithya Raman: 20%
New batch (5 days after the election):
🔵 Nithya Raman: 40%
🔵 Karen Bass: 33%
🔴 Spencer Pratt: 18%
Keep in mind only the top 2 advance to the next round, which is why the third place candidate suddenly surged
Not even hiding it
