Here's a bit about Virginia, an op-ed by me and education civil rights leader Denise Forte of EdTrust in RTD. Everything doesn't have to be tribal. Behind the scenes there is a lot of agreement, legacy media might help people understand that... 3/5 richmond.com/opinion/column…

It used to be that pols would create conflict and differentiation for political reasons and the media would point out that it was BS and they were closer than you might think. Now it's inverse, behind the scenes agreement, click addicted media fueling conflict narratives. 4/5

Andrew Rotherham “The NAEP has set unrealistic goals for student achievement” — this is as subjective of a value statement as could be written.

The sign was like this and said, "Survey Crew Ahead." So I pulled over and started asking them about school choice.

Or, they are serious about governing in a particular way. Penny Schwinn too "woke" means plan B likely isn't going to be great.
