Timeline: How Michigan Charter Schools Have Evolved
Charter schools have been in Michigan for nearly 30 years – the state was among the first in the nation to pass laws allowing them. Michigan’s charter schools, which are also known as public school academies, faced legal challenges early on from opponents who contended that charters weren’t public schools and shouldn’t receive public funding.

Remember When The Deep State Framed Trump As A Russian Agent?
When the #ReleaseTheMemo hashtag appeared, Hamilton 68 reported that it was being spread by Russian bots. (11)Behind the scenes, Twitter officials were coming to believe that Hamilton 68 was a fraud. Twitter’s trust and safety head Yoel Roth told colleagues that a secret list of around 600 Russian bot accounts that Hamilton 68 monitored was “weird and self-selecting. Rather, Roth wrote to colleagues, “they appear to strongly preference pro-Trump accounts, which [Hamilton 68] use to assert that Russia is expressing a preference for Trump.” Roth wanted to confront Hamilton 68 publicly. “These possible Russian bot accounts comprised less than one-half of one percent of activity on the hashtag,” says Langer.

Bluesky verification could look a lot different from X’s blue checks
That’s how you know that the account @nytimes.com on Bluesky belongs to the real The New York Times publication, for example. However, Bluesky believes that custom domains may only be part of the solution around verification going forward. “And they can choose to trust us — the Bluesky team’s verification — or they could do their own. While Bluesky itself could choose to focus on verifying high-profile users, others could build verification systems that would vet people for other criteria. For example, Graber suggested that a university could verify users as alums, or a fan group like the Swifties could verify people as community members.

Email Leaked To HuffPost Shows State Department Anxiety About Leaks To HuffPost
AdvertisementIn the email, Ned Price ― then a senior adviser to Secretary of State Antony Blinken ― described a discussion between State Department leaders and agency officials. He began the email by sharing his view of whether those “workforce discussions” were adequately addressing State Department officials’ concerns. Since then, four other State Department officials have publicly resigned because of their opposition to the U.S. role, as have several staff at other agencies and military personnel. The State Department has said Blinken welcomes different points of view. Biden’s obstinacy has limited internal pushback since, and some State Department officials skeptical of his approach have told HuffPost they felt the criticism was never taken seriously.

Travelers at airports are playing ‘check-in chicken’ in latest flight-booking trend
