Comment on What the Debt Ceiling Fight Achieved

Moms for Liberty, the most prominent group in the rightwing movement against “woke” public schools, is well known for its crusades against LGBTQ-inclusive curriculum and anti-racism initiatives in classrooms. Since 2021, the group, which counts 130,000 members, across 48 states, has claimed—at school board meetings, conferences, and on social media—that left-wing teachers are turning students into social justice warriors. Those efforts—of playing politics in public schools in the name of excising politics—has proved great preparation for its leaders’ current project: Railing against what they see as an antisemitic agenda in certain public schools, even as Moms for Liberty itself reels from allegations of antisemitism in its own ranks. Earlier this week, leaders of several public school systems testified before the House Committee on Education and the Workforce in the latest hearing on antisemitism in America’s educational institutions.

A year removed from the bitter divisions and policy losses that marked the 2023 General Assembly, Gov.

Denver’s revamped migrant program in recent days began enrolling the roughly 800 people who are expected to be the first beneficiaries of a new approach city leaders consider innovative. Participants will receive six months of housing, help with living costs, job training and legal support as the city files asylum claims on their behalf in an effort to get them qualified for work permits. Those are the “haves” among the city’s migrant community, the people who qualify for the narrower, more intensive — and less expensive — scope of the city’s new strategy, announced by Mayor Mike Johnston last month. But there will be many more “have-nots” under the city’s retooled migrant response.

A blatant leftist attempt to scare voters. There is almost no truth to it.

Carbon capture and underground storage (CCUS) tops the list of silly schemes ‘to reduce man-made global warming.’
