It's Snowmicron: A snowstorm keeps kids in some states out of school, and districts are considering another shutdown due to the Omicron surge. But fear not, school closures aren't going to impact grades or test scores—because some districts won't record the data it in the first place. AOC skirts the Snowmicron mess in Miami, and starts a national conversation on the plight of attractive people. And there's another storm brewing—this time, over the filibuster.
