I’m surprised Arizona made the cut.

That sucks. Teachers are one of the professions treated the worst by our society. Losing any that are qualified and aren’t bad people / bad at their job is a terrible loss.

I’m really proud of AZ. Nobody ever thought about us but we could feel the tide turning for years. Then in 2020 Trump got a surprise. But it wasn’t a surprise to anyone in the state.

Arizona in 2024 is very different. Blue leadership has led to things like actually holding people accountable for false electors, may be the 4th state to open up election interference case now that the GOP is out of the picture in terms of leadership.

As someone who lives there, I’m not. We’re an extremely purple state.

Yeah, they’ll shoot you as you crawl down a hotel hallway on your hands and knees no matter who you are.

Yeah but that’s a problem in every state.
