@DelbridgeMark1 @mglan99 @ChrisCillizza Reading scores for 8th graders isn’t the same as a 4 year old “learning to read”.
It’s about thinking critically and understanding what you’re reading

@mglan99 @ChrisCillizza My grandfather who was a 7th grade dropout taught me to read at the age of 4 years old using comic books.
It’s not rocket science and it doesn’t require committees and think tanks to do.

The scandal hiding in plain sight is the collapse of American education.
And no 2028 candidates -- aside from Rahm Emanuel -- are talking about it.

JUST IN: Reading scores for students in grades 3 through 8 have fallen in 47 of 50 states since 2015.

@postinnocence @GitaGopinath Nobody thought she wasn’t qualified or didn’t earn her position. Shes hated by the left because of her actions.
English
Condoleezza Rice was the first African American woman Secretary of State. Instead of celebration, she faced intense hostility from large parts of the left, including some Black activists and liberal voices who attacked her as a ‘sellout’ or worse for serving a Republican president. Remember the radio host who called her ‘Aunt Jemima’? Protests, Senate opposition from Democrats, and constant smears because she didn’t fit the expected narrative.
The ‘usual folks’ only cheer historic firsts when they align with progressive politics. Rice succeeded on merit and principle. That’s the real story.
Try merit!

A painting of the end of meritocracy: A meeting of the two largest economies and not one woman at the table.

@BaldBryan Amazing click bait title (I mean that as compliment m).

You guys. If you like comedy (and if you follow me, you probably don’t), I’ve got a great movie recommendation that just hit streaming. I’d never heard of it, but it has me LMFAO. Fr fr

@SportsMeatballs @POLESPLSEAT3 I hope not. That’s a terrible use of a high round pick

@POLESPLSEAT3 Do you think they drafted him as a returner specifically and not a WR

Bears draft grades
Dillon Thieneman - A+
Awesome player who should not have been available
Logan Jones - B
Addressed a need with a guy who has a lot of experience and similar physical profile to Dalman. Would have liked to wait a little longer for max value (1/5)

@Dameshek Well Ben had better coach, roster, specifically weapons and defensive players all say rivers was better so. Ben maybe a victim of talking trash about Steelers nation and his teammates but rivers clearly better, did more with less

@SheaSerrano For this weekend, 91 players are in the tournament.
The cut line is the score that that half of the players are below after Friday. The 50% of players above that score are “cut” and don’t get to play over the weekend.
Only players making the cut get prize money.

@ChrisCillizza If a candidate is successfully able to swing voter sentiment on affordability by making Soros controlled judges their talking point, that candidate deserves to win.
I don’t see a lot of republicans lining up to make that case.
English
Soros!
Come on, man. You are * really* reaching there.
Camp David@CampDavidAZ
@ChrisCillizza But Soros (the democrats) controls the district judges who think they have more power than the president

@FrancisMeacham1 @problemsthots They don’t even get a pick in the upcoming draft. It’s next years draft, and it will be one of the last 3 or 4 in the first round.
English
@problemsthots They got two firsts for her - how is that scraps?
English
Angel bought a house in chicago that she’s gonna have to sell now. For two years she tried to recruit free agents, defended her coach, the sky organization, talked about how she wanted to build and retire in chicago.
The second she spoke up, they shipped her our for scraps.

@Kirsten_Tanis1 @RapSheet @312SportsCards1 I mean I think the Bears got hosed. But this isn’t true.
Jerry Jones is clearly the head football decision maker in Dallas, and he was not in that photo either.
English
Yet the League allowed Mr. Cunningham to fill that role in the annual GM photo in Arizona just this week.
Matt Ryan, the so-called “Primary Football Executive” who has stated that he does not perform actual GM duties and that Mr. Cunningham performs them independently, was nowhere to be found with the other 31 GMs in that photo op.
Gotta love the inconsistency.
English
The #Bears have been lobbying for draft pick compensation following the hire of Ian Cunningham as #Falcons GM. Today, the NFL responded stating there will be no picks coming:
“The matter is now closed following the club’s appeal. The NFL informed the Bears today they will not receive compensatory picks. The policy is designed to provide picks for the Primary Football Executive position. The League determined Mr. Cunningham did not fill that role with the Falcons as it is defined in League rules.”
English
@ChaseDaniel @dpshow You’re right - don’t overthink it. This century, Reggie Bush/Todd Gurley are only top 10 drafted running backs that have even made it to a superbowl with the team that drafted them.
It’s the second team the always benefits - Saquan/McCaffrey/Fournette, etc
English
Jeremiyah Love is the BEST overall player in the draft & you can’t tell me any different.
The Titans or Saints make so much sense because of everything he brings to the table…don’t overthink it.

@steveo_moose @tomcolicchio The agreement tha the US withdrew from in 2018?
English
@tomcolicchio Can you explain why Iran violated the agreement in 2021 when they went to 20%? Who was president in 2021? I forget.
English
The moron in chief tore up a deal that would have capped it under 4%
Steve@steveo_moose
@tomcolicchio IAEA data shows that Iran was enriching uranium to 60%. Far beyond what is needed for nuclear energy. They also started a “space program” that would shorten the time for them to build an ICBM.

@Ecnerwal23 Participation trophies are good! You showed up and put the work in.
That should be acknowledged.
It shouldn’t be the main celebration or overshadow the accomplishments of the highest achievers, but showing up every day and putting in work plays a massive role in your success.
English
People griping about “participation trophies” know that it is the parents, not the children, that hand them out
I actually think there’s nothing wrong with it but for those that do shift your blame to the right place at least

@mikefreemanNFL Is Tax day a “day” - do we all I do our taxes on 4/15.

What do you say to this type of logic
Aaron Rupar@atrupar
Alito: "We have lots of phrases that involve two words, the second of which is 'day.' Labor Day, Memorial Day, George Washington's birthday, Independence Day, birthday, and Election Day. They are all particular days. So if we start with that, if I have nothing more to look at than the phrase 'Election Day,' I think this is the day in which everything is going to take place."
