Here are five election disinformation trends you should expect -- and warn others not to fall for: 1. Raw video voting/polls. 2. Vote totals will jump. 3. Premature claims of victory. 4. Last-minute AI-generated images/videos. 5. Partisan claims of fraud. newslit.org/wp-content/upl…

This new thing is for sufferers everywhere - and for the families who love them. It’s how he wanted to be remembered, and so we will.

Timeless wisdom from Warren Buffett.

“Taking books away from kids and schools does not protect our children — it erases many of the stories and voices that do.” Governor Tim Walz, 3.21.24

As if you didn’t need another reason to vote in November, the next president will appoint the new Librarian of Congress. Make your voices heard friends!

How do we create a culture of questioning in our classrooms?

Tomorrow we are told to expect the Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity. Make no mistake this could be the most impactful opinion in American history. SCOTUS has decided to aggressively reshape our country and jump cut into an authoritarian style. At no point in time did we ever consider that a legitimate expression of our democratic principles. Now we are facing a highly motivated Supreme Court,a complicit GOP,and a crazed man who wants to be dictator. So,all of these forces are lined up and marching forward. Regardless of what happens tomorrow we can vote in November and finally stop this insane movement. Vote in record numbers. This turnout could be us rescuing ourselves. Looking back the books will count the massive turnout in November as America redeeming itself. Historic. In the alternative there will no books that record the struggle at all. May be no books. Vote Blue without fail. Vote Biden/Harris. @BidenHQ @POTUS #VoteBlueDownBallott #VoteBlueForDecency

@gileslibrarian Same!!!

Three Florida parents sued Florida’s Board of Education on Thursday because they allege that book bans violate the rights of parents who don't want books banned. time.com/6986435/florid…
