Same as it ever was
Remember the violent, angry mobs at the Obamacare town halls?
1. The sudden interest in school boards is not an organic grassroots movement of angry parents.
It is an effort orchestrated by seasoned right-wing political operatives who have formed a constellation of well-funded groups.https://t.co/NPlUwraJC6

Another one from Southlake. @NBCNews obtained audio from a district training. An administrator advised confused teachers that if they have a book about the Holocaust in the classroom, they need one with an "opposing" viewpoint. From @Mike_Hixenbaugh and me https://t.co/s6cnyV3CSO

Not as bad as I feared
Okay, this preliminary report was dribbled out after close of business today, which made me suspicious. Releasing this at that time was a PR move, and that made me think that the other members of the commission didn’t agree.

Here’s a more representative excerpt of the commission’s treatment of expansion. Still not great, imo.
A blind spot of the report is its elevation of shoring up “the court’s legitimacy” as the main goal of reform, rather than the law’s legitimacy and integrity. pic.twitter.com/fNWwQHj9bt

Thank you so much
Thanks so much, I don’t need any more donations. I guess everyone else is as terrified of the IRS as I am!
Looking for donations — turns out there was an oversight in preparing my taxes (not my fault, I’m too nervous to do my own taxes), and I now have one month to come up with $400.
This is important because I still have one year left on the agreement that I signed with the IRS, and if I miss a payment, it voids the agreement and all taxes and penalties they waived come due. Gulp.
