Is 6 years enough for this? She got bail. Then she got pregnant by another student. Rebecca Joynes was a high school maths teacher in Manchester when she was first arrested for s*xual offences against a teenage boy. While out on bail, with conditions explicitly barring her from contact with anyone under 18, she began messaging a 15-year-old student on Snapchat. She was eventually arrested again for breaching bail. By then, she was pregnant with his child. The baby was born in early 2024 and taken from her within 24 hours. In his victim impact statement, the boy said Joynes refused to tell him anything about the pregnancy. No appointments. No gender. No due date. He found out about his own child's birth the way everyone else did. He also said he struggled to find support as a male victim, and that he believes the response would have been different if the genders were reversed. A jury found her guilty of six s*xual offences. She was sentenced to six and a half years. #education #teachermisconduct #victimsrights

BREAKING: HELL YES! Governor Gavin Newsom proposes a federal billionaire tax in a bold new announcement — sending the MAGA oligarchs into a tailspin.
And it gets even better...
"It's time for a national billionaire's tax and a new social contract. Think about this, just 10% of people, 10% of people in this country own two-thirds of the wealth," Newsom said in a video posted to X. "A 30-year-old, for the first time in American history, is not doing better than his or her parents. That's a five-alarm fire."
The governor is planting his flag on this issue as the Democratic Party convulses to redefine itself. Left-wing candidates are ascendant because the base is clamoring for genuinely progressive policies. Zohran Mamdani is leading the charge on this leftward shift and the recent successes of his endorsed candidates in the New York primaries is proof positive that voters are responding. Democratic Socialism is no longer a scary phrase.
We can either retreat into the same centrist ideology that allowed Trump to seize the White House not only once but twice, or we can embrace a more equitable vision of the future and start fighting for the working class. Republicans will call us "communists" but they do that anyway. Ignore the labels they sling and focus on winning elections with populist policy proposals.
“The system America’s founders built was designed to prevent the concentration of power in a few hands, but we have allowed that concentration to happen anyway, slowly, in plain sight, over decades,” Newsom stated. “We can reverse it together, as a country.”
He's calling for an "economic reset for America," demonstrating that he's willing to listen to voters clamoring for change as he considers a 2028 presidential campaign.
And the he American people are clearly furious with the status quo...
We are being forced to watch as sociopaths like Elon Musk (who is a trillionaire now) gobble up more and more wealth while working class families struggle to afford rent, basic groceries, and healthcare. Income inequality at these extreme levels is unsustainable.
Newsom's proposal would institute a minimum tax on anyone with a net worth above $100 million so that they pay, at the very least, the same rate as an average American worker. Under our current skewed tax system, some of them pay lower rates than people far poorer than them.
The governor also warned that the plutocratic inheritance laws currently on the books could "lock in a permanent American aristocracy of inherited wealth" if nothing is done.
The governor pointed specifically to the rise of artificial intelligence to bolster his proposal. He said that the new technology will dramatically reshape our economic system and so a “national public equity fund” should be distributed to every American, rather than simply allowing the tech lords and corporations to hoard even more wealth and power. That money could be used to help displaced workers, provide childcare, education, and healthcare.
"We're nearing the 250th anniversary of this country's revolution. The system the American founders built, well, was designed to prevent the concentration of power in a few hands," said Newsom. "But we've allowed that concentration to happen anyway, slowly and in plain sight over the course of decades and decades. But we can reverse it. We can reverse it together."
"It's time to democratize the American economy, to save our democracy," he concluded.
Newsom's support for this federal billionaire tax comes after he vowed to veto a California ballot proposal to institute a one-time tax on residents with a net worth above $1 billion. He explained that such a tax would just prompt those billionaires to flee to other states. The only real solution, as he sees is it, is to tax them at the federal level so that they can't simply jump over the border to a neighborring state.
“We’re competing with 50 states. Capital flows and move(s). That’s real. It’s not imagined. It’s very, very real," he previously said at the World Economic Forum.
What do you think? Is it time to fight back against the billionaires?

A man who routinely boasted about being the first open drag queen to be elected to a school board in the United States was arrested last week for disturbing sex crimes involving children as young as 18 months.
Travis J. Longo, 46, who is the vice president of the Cazenovia Central School District’s board of education in New York state, was initially charged over a “pattern” of sending explicit communications to a child under 12 years old. Once authorities seized and searched Longo’s phone, child pornography was discovered. #wth

Ralph C. Lincoln has gained attention because of his remarkable resemblance to President Abraham Lincoln and his documented connection to the Lincoln family. Ralph is not a direct descendant of Abraham Lincoln, whose known family line ended in 1985, but he is a distant relative through the broader Lincoln family tree. According to Ralph’s own genealogical research, he descends from Mordecai Lincoln, Abraham Lincoln’s great uncle, making him a distant cousin of the 16th president. Ralph is an 11th generation member of the Lincoln family in America and has spent years studying and preserving his family’s history, often appearing at historical events and educational programs portraying the Lincoln legacy.

𝐓𝐰𝐨 𝟏𝟔-𝐘𝐞𝐚𝐫-𝐎𝐥𝐝 𝐒𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐁𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 | Murdered Their 66-Year-Old Spanish Teacher Over a Bad Grade — They Stalked Her, Beat Her to Death With a Baseball Bat, and Hid Her Body Like Trash"
TRAGIC.
In Fairfield, Iowa, a dedicated 66-year-old Spanish teacher named Nohema Graber was murdered in cold blood by two of her own 16-year-old students, Willard Miller and Jeremy Gooddale.
According to prosecutors, the teens became furious after Graber gave Miller a poor grade that was hurting his GPA. Instead of accepting responsibility, they spent two weeks planning the attack.
They stalked her to Chautauqua Park — a place she frequently visited — ambushed her with a baseball bat, beat her to death, and then hid her body under a tarp, railroad ties, and a wheelbarrow.
The brutality of this crime has left many speechless. These were students she was trying to educate. Instead, they took her life over something as common as a bad grade.Both teens were tried as adults and pleaded guilty to first-degree murder.
Willard Miller was sentenced to life in prison with the possibility of parole after 35 years.
Jeremy Gooddale was sentenced to life in prison with the possibility of parole after 25 years.
This story raises painful questions about respect for teachers, the value we place on education, and what is happening with our youth. A teacher who showed up every day to do her job paid the ultimate price.
What do you think should happen in cases like this? Should the justice system be even stricter with juveniles who commit such heinous crimes?
How do we protect educators who are pouring their lives into our children?
