Yes, reports indicate negative coverage of the Sussexes drives significant engagement and revenue. Bot Sentinel estimated 25 YouTube channels earned about $3.5 million from such videos via ads. UK MPs and media analyses have described critical stories as high-value clickbait for tabloids and sites, boosting views and ad income. Royal commentators, authors, and hosts often monetize public interest this way through appearances, books, and content, even without direct access.
Hey @rosadelauro -time to make very small but IMPORTANT tweak to IDEA:
Who can DELIVER the SDI instruction!
Fact:
CT has shortage of SPED teachers, AND
Surplus of fully licensed k6GenEd teachers across all 9 CT k6 endorsement codes -
who do deliver SDI daily in nonTOR roles
Not suggesting K6 teachers ever design SDI, but in reality
#FullylicensedK6GenEdteachers in #CTk6GenEdLaborSURPLUS
do take nonTOR roles
&do deliver SDI daily
they should be trusted more than unlicensed staff
(due to credentials & licensure)
to DELIVER
said SDI with fidelity
@rosadelauro Which in would likely produce better outcomes for students & better management of SPED programs and workloads
with minor tweak SPED teachers would remain FULLY responsible at all times - but maybe wouldn’t need to spend all their time HOVERING in direct supervision
@GovNedLamont Turned off comments? Strong labor support? — yet ignoring all 9 k6 (now preK6) endorsement codes licensed! that when combined totals show CT K6 labor-surplus Gen Ed teachers - unrepresented by any unions- shut out of jobs by nature of TimeServed & TEAM guidelines
We’re putting our residents first by fighting for affordable housing, accessible healthcare, universal early childhood education, and strong labor protections & opportunities. Let’s keep fighting together! #TeamLamont #NedforCT
@cthousegop @V_Candelora @HouseGOPPolicy @CTDOL
thousands
already LIC k6 GEN ED teachers ALL CT Elem GenEd endorsements

Yrs work =0️⃣TEAMcredit
You can fix it for 0️⃣ COST!
Cull existing raw data for all active licenses
See #s
Humans who believed CT shortage narrative- now perpetually stuck in bottleneck labor force - waiting on 30+ yr vets to vacate seats - #k6classroomshortage vs licenses-
time served credit costs 0️⃣
Not even represented by
anyUNIONS
because we are nonTOR
CT semi-false narrative about WHERE shortages actually were
created #SilentLaborForce #licensedK6GenEdSurplus
working teachers
0️⃣time credit
😠not even apprentice classed
0️⃣TEAM credit
0️⃣respect, benefits, protections
@CTSenateGOP CT wants to save money-
Eliminate TEAM
REAL COST of TEAM
$250 per seat mentor training
$60 per mod RESC review
$500 per teacher stipends
$3000 per mentor in hidden release time
=$8Mill total systemwide drain per yr
most restrictive outdated mentor pgm in country
EmergencyCertMemo201 is invitation to a locked door!!
this memo ONLY asks existing teacher-of-record job holders to switch jobs
1000s of bottlenecked licensed trained k/6 elementary gen ed teachers
in labor force surplus
are STILL blocked by access #CriticalClassroomShortage
CSDE knows it!!
TEAM REQS that can’t ever be satisfied because of #K6ClassroomShortage
TEAM was supposed to be helping hand
it’s now bureaucratic costly gatekeeper $8mill road block
with soft money going to for profit fees associated with it — #EndTEAM #GiveWorkCredit to ALL

The Nobel Committee states that once announced, a Prize cannot be revoked, shared, conferred, purchased, designated, distributed, or acquired by others after the fact—the decision is final.
On heirs/estates/creditors: Statutes allow posthumous award if death occurs post-announcement; estates receive the money. Medals can be inherited/sold by heirs (e.g., Crick, MLK cases). No specific Committee statement on creditors, but assets follow standard laws.
@UOPXNews @UOPX
Hey -what’s latest on grad level certificates for teachers
AND WHY aren’t you working& collaborating across state lines w/CT @GovNedLamont @EducateCT to bring affordable choices to CT teachers?
$600 courses at @UnivOfPhoenix are way better than #CharterOak$1587
SouthernCT grad courses -$2705
NOT affordable
CT certified teachers who DONT take room but are “in service to education” every day
(and there’s a lot of us)
IF we want to cross train?How?
paid ¼ to ⅓ of classroom teachers
no benefits, no unions,
professional hours don’t count
another
Post Univ- $1887 per course
too expensive—
#EndInStateOnlyRule
#ExpandApprovals
CT institutions ARE NOT only ones that can teach Pedagogic Grad Level Courses! Accredited Institutions across country should be accepted!
#ChangeThisElitistReq
it blocks equitable access
There is no reason in digital age that CT STILL puts blocks up for out of state training online.
CT can & SHOULD easily & quickly write EO to change &eliminate the policies of preference given expensive CT programs.
And remove yet another hurdle to filling CT Teacher shortages.

Based on 2025 data from Bank of America Institute, Federal Reserve, and Urban Institute, affordability for US families under $50k has not statistically increased nationwide vs. Dec 2024. Costs rose (e.g., utilities +3.6%, housing payments +6%), while wage growth slowed to ~0-2% YoY for this group. 52% struggle with basics; spending weakened, though savings are up from 2019. Regional variations persist, with Sunbelt rentals stabilizing. (378 chars)
