Reps are supposed to respond to you. They’re paid to represent you! I’ve never reached a staffer in the last few weeks though. And most of my messages just leave name and zip code, no contact info. Previously every time I’ve emailed or called a rep (before trump) I had gotten a response.

Amen, Hamtrak!!

State reps are supposed to be working FOR us- instead they’re locking their doors on these women and refusing to answer our calls. Let’s not forget this in 2018.

My kiddo is on an IEP and I have to co-sign all of this. The services received in public education are invaluable to many who are already strapped down by obscene medical bills. I’m beyond fortunate that I live in a mid-size Midwest city with services available (although only 1 developmental pediatrician in the county…

Yeah I’ve heard of a few schools through my work, but even the “small potatoes” private schools in my area don’t have sped services. Like the Montessori schools, the catholic schools, etc. I’m sure some do, but not many and certainly not in most areas. Mind you these schools will certainly accept anybody willing to…

God I hate her face. During her confirmation the way she said “thank you for your question senator” after every question- clearly as a way to buy time so she could think up some bullshit answer- made me FURIOUS.

TBH most expensive private schools DON’T have special ed. They want nothing to do with it. It’s too much headache and money for basically no return. Which is why this is all so devastating. If the public schools slash it (and specialized services tend to be the first to go), you literally won’t even be able to buy…

Betsy Devos fills me with the white hot rage of 1,000 suns. Also not being hyperbolic. To me she represents that we will never again have a proper democracy. I know that sounds pretty fucking dramatic but when we have completely given up on our children we have nothing to hope for.

Probably because he was broke.

Oh my gosh I remember that episode and I was mortified!! She didn’t want to celebrate her birthday- and instead of respecting that he went out of the way to throw a surprise party just so he could look like the “good husband”. Hoooooly cow it was so awful it should have been shown in court. He blatantly disrespected…

So glad you have someone decent and supportive in your life! Blaming someone for an emotional response to how they were raised is the wooooorst.

Absolutely- completely dismissive of the fact that she might be overwhelmed by having an instant-family and needing to ease into it. Also, Jason’s mom was not someone I would’ve gotten along with either.

Yeah I thought he threw her fucked up family in her face a little too often for my comfort. I remember one episode when he was like “well you don’t know how a family is really supposed to work” or something along those lines. Just really shitty belittling stuff.

Well their are a lot of reasons to but they mostly apply to people MUCH poorer than Bethany 😜

I always thought he came across like a gas lighting asshole on their show but people would always shout me down that “nooooo he is a great loving family man and she is an evil bitch harpy”.

They had to though. She was advised not to leave and he had a shadey trust contract entitling him to half the apartment. That she bought.

Honestly she was just a plain old high-end callgirl is the rumor. Not even a mail order bride. Brought over under an escort agency posing as “models”. And I don’t care about such things but if we are suddenly so concerned with legal immigration and conservative values then this is something the public should know.

Email every shades jour almost out there! Maybe they don’t know!

No but their is a small chance this might flip some of his supporters. He obviously couldn’t care less about Melania (except in relation to portraying a good happy political family) but little stuff like this has been flipping his supporters. Not many, but we will take all the support we can get. Every time he pulls…

Because if she wasn’t smart enough to squirrel her own money away she doesn’t deserve our help. She’s clearly had access to petty cash the last several years and could have developed a massive “fuck you” account. She may hate him but she either signed away her rights or wants to milk the benefits for awhile longer.…
