Laura apparently wants her supporters to end up like Charlie Kirk.
These arguments always remind me of this quote from The West Wing: “Education is the silver bullet. Education is everything. We don’t need little changes. We need gigantic revolutionary changes. Competition for the best teachers should be fierce. They should be getting six-figure salaries. Schools should be incredibly expensive for government and absolutely free of charge for its citizens, just like national defense. That’s my position.”
look whats happening to teachers right now: getting fired for quesitoning Charlie kirk, and then theres the disrespect from students and parents forcing them to leave education forever. The pay is just adding insult to injury. I occasionally go on the r/teacher sub, and almost every post is they cant handle school anymore.
I remember Newsroom, and it was alright. Kind of mad they didn’t get to do a little more with it. Personally, I’ll probably watch Sports Night again, too.
Yeah, it was a pretty abrupt wrap up wasn’t it. It was there and then… gone. Be interesting to see how Sorkin handled the trump White House in that context but he’s probably been apoplectic through it all, also not sure how much he enjoys writing absurdist scenarios (even if they’re taken directly from real life)

I just haven’t figured out how to do it yet.
Mallory swoons at Sam
I should just spend the next 3-years watching that on repeat instead of the news.
How do you think I made it thru the first term.
Try The Newsroom too if you haven’t yet seen it. Another Sorkin gem.

I did that 2016-2020. Unfortunately, it hasn’t aged very well.
