@LucasKunceMO Rooting for you!

No matter the results tonight, thank you for standing with me.

@elonmusk Bring them in, allow them citizenship and they will then participate in the economy.

As I was saying, the Democratic Party is importing voters. It’s as simple as that.

@MOEducation Congratulations! Dr. Rebore led me through my doctoral studies at Saint Louis University. He is a brilliant man. Congratulations @phedgpeth! There is no one more deserving. Your love of teachers and students is evident in the work you do everyday for them.

News Release➡️DESE recognizes the six Pioneers in Education will be in the spotlight on Monday, July 29, in recognition of their commitment and contributions to public education in Missouri. Full release: dese.mo.gov/missouri-honor…

@piper4missouri Absolutely!

Fascinating article regarding the science of reading. What works? Strong phonics instruction(Plus, all other four pillars) from a researched core curriculum, a structured RTI system, and teachers/leaders versed in brain based reading instruction. drive.google.com/file/d/18tmdwe…

@BethMooreLPM Thank you for your courage to speak truth.

Sobered by last night and trying to practice what people call radical acceptance, not of a presidential candidate because surprising things happen. Just plainly sobered by the thought that, with other individuals to choose from, masses of people still hail Trump. He’s what they actually want in a leader. A bully. A verbally abusive, artfully and purposely divisive bully who has all but left the Republican Party unrecognizable. I don’t know. I just can’t understand it. Maybe I’ve got a mental block. But, you who are staunch Republicans, why don’t you care about your own party more than that? Forgive me. I don’t want to be a repeat performance of my 2016 self. I don’t. I didn’t like her anymore than you did. I intend to deal differently with this. I do not intend to get obsessed. I do not intend to lose more relationships. I don’t intend to talk about this regularly. As the Scriptures say, I want to seek peace and pursue it. I want to be a person of kindness, love and compassion. But I’ve got to move to a place of radical acceptance. It was one thing to cast a vote for a party’s only candidate, reasoning the choice as the lesser of two evils. This is quite another thing. This is wide-open-eyed, “we WANT Trump!” Anyway, this is where we are. We can complain all we want about our leaders but, in this government by the people, at the end of the day and the beginning of November, our candidates are mirrors of ourselves.

@JonGordon11 My staff and I have been working on driving our organization with purpose!

10 Rules for the Ride of your Life from my book “The Energy Bus”. Which rule are you working on applying now?

Proud to be attending the Missouri Public Library Director’s conference. More privileged that I get to hear from our State Librarian Robin Westphal.

News Release ➡ The State Board of Education announced that Senator Karla Eslinger will assume the role as the state’s next commissioner for the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education effective June 1, 2024. Read the full release: dese.mo.gov/state-board-an…

@DeputyGrocott Library director! Best move I’ve ever made.

What jobs do teachers go into if they stop teaching? Seen a few people coming out of the classroom but don’t see too much about what they do next?

Thrilled to be present at @RuralLibAssoc conference in Wichita, to hear from the very best in the field from libraries across the nation. Today’s discussion concerns intellectual freedom and the right to read.

Never more true than with the use of #EdTech !

A new staff and a new journey with the “Energy Bus.” Thank you @JonGordon11 for helping me shape the West Plains Public Library into a positive environment for my staff and our community.

@JonGordon11 Absolutely. Leading my staff through the book as we speak. Thankful for its message.

Don’t go through life with regrets. Don’t be too stressed to feel blessed. Live your life to the fullest and enjoy the ride! 📷 from page 145 of my book, “The Energy Bus” 📖 🚌

@DrJAdams123 I miss these people!

@BethMooreLPM You will be fine on Threads. See you there! ;)

I’m shook thinking of giving up Twitter. Are y’all keeping both??? I need another social media distraction like I need 10 broken toes. Man, y’all, we wouldn’t have made it through the pandemic without this place and each other. But I agree, Twitter’s about to destroy itself.
