Brb, gotta screenshot all the APGov and APUSH pages for posterity.
I'm fully expecting the APUSH or APGOV class my kids end up taking in the 2050s is going to have some incredibly stupid shit like this in it and I'm gonna end up being the reason they fail the AP test because I will not abide by poor historiography in my household
that's why we have to survive as long as possible. because someone has to call bullshit when a historian airhead does their usual chin-stroking "trump was not a real person, but rather a metaphor" routine
my friend has been saying this since 2021

Marbury v. Madison for Republicans, but not for Democrats is a jurisprudence principle I look forward to having to teach in #apgov #edusky
Marbury v Madison is a seminal case from 1803 that holds that the federal courts must determine the constitutionality of the actions of the other two branches of government. Hope that helps, Stephen.

And yet we pay for Israel to give its citizens free healthcare. 🤔
She apparently also forgot that Democrats aren’t the majority party in Congress.
Someone ought to check her school records and see how she did in her APGOV class. 🙄

The way College Board has laid out #APGov with 13 required documents and 14 SCOTUS cases feels like they transformed a course studying our government into studying a set of ancient classical texts from a past bygone golden age that have to be interpreted correctly like the Confucian texts and exams
Although if you want to be an optimist, I guess we replaced them with a strange close reading of the Gettysburg Address, a gratuitously butchered version of The Wealth of Nations skimmed for bullet points, and mudwrestling with the famously inscrutable Federalist #39? So maybe we gained something?

President Donald Trump has repeatedly signaled he is open to invoking the Insurrection Act, a law from 1807 that allows the president to deploy the military in the United States. https://to.pbs.org/3JyaV3N
What is the Insurrection Act? Here's what Trump has said about using it
Experts told PBS News that worries about the Insurrection Act arise from legal uncertainty about how it can be applied.
