I've seen enough. Right now #Texas politics — culture and collegiality, magnitude and intensity of dysfunction — is the worst it's been in decades. More broken than ever. Not impossible but v hard to see how it's put back together
a. Did anything teachers did give you particular difficulty?
b. Did you have any teachers who were particularly helpful? In what ways?
c. How did you feel about "group work" ?
Teachers routinely gave me a hard time, even as early as kindergarten. This got worse as I got older. I was relentlessly picked on and bullied, and most teachers did nothing to prevent this. Quite often I was punished for standing up for or defending myself.
I did, however, have a few teachers that were helpful. My first and fourth grade teachers were amazing, as well as my social studies teacher in 6th grade.
I hated group projects. I've always been a more logical thinker than my peers, and often just as they are unable to wrap their heads around my way of thinking, I was (and am) unable to do the same for theirs. It's something I'm continually working on, which has led me to be the guy that tends to play devil's advocate... and to be equally as misunderstood by most.
In bringing charges against former president Trump, Special Counsel Smith has created a dilemma that threatens to further divide our already fractured nation.
I mean, of course, should the future federal Indictment Day holiday be celebrated on the anniversary of the date of the grand jury's filing, the date it was unsealed, or the date of Trump's first court appearance? Or should it be observed on a Monday, to guarantee all Americans a long weekend?
