I've never followed anyone on Twitter. That may have to change.

Paul Ryan held hearings on poverty, but wouldn’t let poor people testify. But in his defense he was worried poverty might be contagious.

I'm picturing the jailed teachers, now being criticized for not making it to the classroom. Or being allowed out each day only to go directly to school and teach, then back to jail. A nice sort of work-release program.

I know too many teachers not to think the person who ought to be in jail here is Scott Walker.
