Because they have been giving for the same reason for years. You've been covering the district long enough to know what the end game is.

My uncle just called me. He said that he received an email from the GOP saying that “communist teachers are indoctrinating children with CRT and Marxist ideologies,” and they need $ to stop it. He asked me what “CRT” is and if this is really happening. I explained IT IS A LIE.

Backdoor voucher? Can a local school district #LAUSD remake Title I school-based funding by wrenching it out of original context so $ acts like a grant to an individual student? Smells fishy. @TonyThurmond @SecCardona pls take a look. medium.com/age-of-awareness/…

Why are we allowing Betsy DeVos' waiver applied to Title I to continue? We got rid of Trump/DeVos for a reason. Pls cancel this waiver & disallow #LAUSD's attempt to undercut federal money for equitable education w/this distortion of Title I funds @SecCardona cc @TonyThurmond
So wrong. And it is a grift.

We spend 50% more hours in school than Finland. And they get 15 mins of recess every hour. They have NO standardized tests except for PISA in HS and they outperform us every time. If we can’t give students more movement, recess, and play time then we don’t understand education.

Citizens of the World charter school landgrabs of public school facilites at Shirley ES in LA is like segregation academies in Jim Crow hoarding of resources. CoW still owes LAUSD $1 million in unpaid fees & yet they take over Shirley's space? #CharterSchoolsArentPublicSchools

SB 48 is going to pass in Florida. No one thought it wouldn't. @FloridaGOP just don't care. Years from now, we may have an idea of the kids who lost out on their education because of this. @emceeleman nailed it here. fundeducationnow.org/fl-sb48…

🍊💩🤡 spent more time installing a Diet Coke button on his desk than figuring out how to ship enough #covid19 vaccines to the states. 🤬 #400kTrumpPandemicDead
President Biden has removed the Diet Coke button. When @ShippersUnbound and I interviewed Donald Trump in 2019, we became fascinated by what the little red button did. Eventually Trump pressed it, and a butler swiftly brought in a Diet Coke on a silver platter. It's gone now.
