"Safety does not mean being handcuffed and detained by federal agents in front of a high school for no apparent reason, which is what recently happened to a fifteen-year-old boy with disabilities in Los Angeles. That school district says that it would offer online classes for any student who felt afraid to come back to school-a show of what McMahon might call "flexibility," although probably not the type that this Administration had in mind."
""It's difficult to check facts, or to talk about fact checking, without coming off as a know-it-all, a fussbudget, or a snob," Zach Helfand writes. But he achieves it, in a piece for the latest centenary issue, which is filled with-suprise!-fun facts. (To start: a former head of the department once brought a live rooster into the office; another checker had to enlist the police, to pull a source into a phone booth; and the Taliban is typically willing to answer questions,"
Safety in school can include decent cafeteria lunches, access to a nurse, and being treated with dignity regardless of gender identity. A fifteen-year-old boy with disabilities in Los Angeles was handcuffed and detained by federal agents in front of his high school for no apparent reason. The local school district offered online classes for any student who felt afraid to return, presenting a form of flexibility. The Trump Administration has been systematically gutting the Department of Education. The New Yorker's fact-checking department has a quirky history, including a head bringing a live rooster into the office and enlisting police to contact sources. Melvyn Bragg, longtime host of "In Our Time," plans to step down after more than a thousand episodes but intends to return next year with new projects.
