🏆 Congratulations to Samantha Villeda, Area Manager in California, one of Right At School's newest GEM Award winners! Sam's story is one of coming full circle. She grew up benefiting from afterschool programs, which is exactly why she chose this work. Since joining RAS in 2020 as an educator, Sam has risen quickly, now overseeing programs across some of California's most competitive districts. In just two years back in her home base of Los Angeles, she's opened three new districts—South Pasadena, Beverly Hills, and Santa Monica-Malibu—with more expansion already on the way. Her approach is rooted in trust. She recalls a student in Palo Alto who struggled to attend school more than once or twice a week. Through the consistency and care Sam's team showed him, he became a program regular, eventually going months without a single school absence. That human-first approach defines everything Sam does, from the way she engages ELOP coordinators and district liaisons, to the bi-weekly newsletters she introduced to keep families connected on California's many closed campuses. Ask Sam about the award, though, and she'll tell you it belongs to her team. That kind of leadership is exactly what a GEM looks like. Congratulations, Sam! 🏆 #ExpandedLearning #AfterSchool #DistrictPartnerships #RightAtSchool

@LeibhardtLinda @stelzner_n1150 . @LeibhardtLinda doesn’t get to say things about US soldiers bravely speaking up against an illegal war. Only Congress can declare war. This is a distraction from Trump getting caught in Epstein’s human trafficking. Buckle up, Buttercup, your orange monster is going to prison.

@stelzner_n1150 He is in uniform. He is going against his commander and chief and should be held for treason… Good thing he’s just getting away with a fucking broken hand!

Follow this patriot immediately!

If I hear one more DC politician who’s never served a day in uniform sitting in a gold plated office try to talk tough, having never seen what war is about, I’m going to lose my mind. We’re going to hold the President accountable – and the American people are on our side.

I've seen firsthand how Western North Carolina is struggling after being forced to front the cost of Hurricane Helene recovery. I shouldn't have to berate Kristi Noem to get her to do her job. Maybe if she stopped focusing on detaining citizens, she could get NC the aid we need.

Does anyone actually know why we…ya know…started a WAR IN IRAN?!

“Please do not rely on the US government for assisted departure or evacuation…” That’s the message you get when you dial the State Department’s emergency number that Marco Rubio urged Americans stuck in the Middle East to call today - 202-501-4444

I’m back. Let’s start off slowly with our recent weather. Blizzard 2026 in New York.

Fall in New York🍂🍁

Our city’s waterfront has always been a place for opportunity. With the new master plan for the Manhattan Cruise Terminal, we’re modernizing the port and redefining what a resilient and sustainable terminal looks like.

I’m fixated on this American President use of the word, “your” instead of “our” to describe the United States people. Who does he work for?

@Ojeda4America Thank you for your service to our nation-then and now. 🫶🏻

Trump shows off all the gold he’s added to the Oval Office to look more like the Kremlin. “This is not Home Depot stuff.”

Trump on H-1b visa: You have to bring in talent Ingraham: We have plenty of talented people here Trump: No, you don’t

Y'all have to listen to this gentleman eviscerate the Virgina Beach school board. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👇

REV. BLACK (who was shot in the head with a pepper ball): “If this is what they’re doing to pastors, journalists, teachers, mothers, and the elderly gathered to sing and pray outside ICE facilities… what might they be doing to our neighbors who are behind those walls?”

North Carolina is suing the USDA to keep families from going hungry. The federal government is denying access to food to more than 1.4 million North Carolinians, including children, veterans, and people with disabilities. Thank you, @NCAGO, for standing up to secure these critical resources.
