BARTIROMO: If things are so bad, how come the stock market is on a roll?
TRUMP: Because they think I'm gonna be elected
BARTIROMO: You think the stock market is rallying because people think you're going to be elected? @atrupar
The deemphasis of learning factual information in favor of focusing on higher-order thinking has hindered students’ ability to do either.
Cognitive dissonance is a hell of a thing. If there is one thing I have learned from the Trump era, it’s that humans are capable of rationalizing themselves into just about anything.

The most thrilling player in March Madness weighs less than the equipment guy, swishes bombs from the logo and won't be playing on CBS. Caitlin Clark of Iowa is the best thing you'll see on TV this weekend, incl. Ted Lasso. Fri 4:30 PT ESPN. Dont miss Steph Curry in a ponytail.

State Sen. Nathan Dahm (R-OK) has penned several bills loosening gun restrictions, including the nation’s first anti-red flag law. He thinks these bills protect the Second Amendment – and that they make us safer. We think it's probably one or the other. Watch it on @AppleTVPlus.

Imagine trying to think critically about any current event without a basic grasp of history.
Facts matter
How to cheat on a test: memorize all of the required information before the exam, and then use that information to answer those exact questions on the test. 🙄
How to steal an election: “Seeding an area heavy with potential Democratic votes with as many absentee ballots as possible, targeting and convincing potential voters to complete them in a legally valid way, and then harvesting and counting the results.”

No such thing as objective history. This is what makes it fascinating and sometimes controversial. Unfortunately, many from older generations were not taught history this way, so they see looking at multiple viewpoints, especially those of marginalized groups, as indoctrination.

The polarization argument too often treats both sides as equally worthy of blame, characterizing the problem as a sort of free-floating affliction (e.g., “lack of trust”).
