Why do we have a government in the first place? It’s the most basic question in civics, yet one we rarely stop to ask. I built the Unconventional Civics course on Peterson Academy to challenge assumptions, teach the fundamentals that are glossed over or ignored in the traditional classroom,... show more

Demis Hassabis on the final frontier for AI in science 🧬 : it’s not just about solving the math, it’s about having the creativity to ask the question in the first place. While coding and math are verifiable and easier to automate, natural science requires a "missing ingredient" that we haven't fully cracked yet. "Coming up with the question in the first place or coming up with the theory or the hypothesis. I think that's much, much harder and I think that's the highest level of scientific creativity.”

Germany's Chancellor Merz on Iran: We have always said that we are ready to participate. We have already sent the first minesweeping vessels and ships to the region. We are prepared, but we have not yet made a decision — neither in the federal government nor in parliament. We must, of course, also clarify the legal basis. That is a question we have not yet resolved conclusively. But the fact that we are fundamentally prepared to participate in safeguarding this peace has been the common position of the federal government for weeks already.

We have to ask this Mr President, why is it so difficult for you as the ANC to advance the interests of black people ? We are the majority and natives, yet black people are the ones who suffer the most in the country. What hurts people the most, it’s a black government that has failed them even with basic services such as water, electricity and safety.

[Q]: President Trump sounded doubtful that Ukraine could regain all the territories that Russia occupied even though he have said the opposite recently. What do you think he believes? President Zelenskyy: Of course the question of territories, very sensitive question, very sensitive and the most difficult question. Our position is that first we need a ceasefire, we need to sit and speak and to understand where we are and I think this is the most important first step, that is where we are. I think the President [Trump] understands that the most difficult question in any format of negotiations will be the territory. It's a pity, but the territory of Ukraine.

Mic drop queen. It's basic civics. Most schools dont teach civics anymore. Do what she said. Look at all the representatives who voted no on the government shutdown. The only republican to vote no was Rand Paul. He wanted pre covid spending levels. "If you can't be unified, I dont want you there." Agree Agree Agree.

.James Talarico: I think we should define what we mean by love. I'm not talking about a sentimental feeling. I believe love is a force as real as gravity. Scripture says that God is love. And I always think the question, ‘do you believe in God?‘ is such a strange one because to me, God is the ultimate reality — the ground of our being. I think the question people are asking when they ask that is, ‘do you believe in love’? And love to me is the most powerful thing in the universe.

Warren Buffett: "I used to say that I had a one-question employment form. The question was, 'Are you a fanatic?' And if you answered yes, you got the job." "When a seller comes to me with a business, the first question I have to ask myself — because I'm counting on them to run the place — [is], 'Do they love the money or do they love the business?'"

BANNON: You kidding me? Note the Kash. It’s not working. You’ve got to give ppl basic info. We’re in a shooting war in one of the most dangerous places in the world, and after two attacks today they still won’t even name the guy. Why? Why do we have to hear it from Ryan Grim?

.Chuck Schumer is incapable of telling the truth. After 44 YEARS in Congress, he pretends not to understand the Senate’s rules. As every 8th grade Civics student knows, it takes 60 votes to end the Schumer Shutdown. Since we only have 53 Republicans, we must have a handful of Senate Democrats do the right thing this week and vote to reopen the government. It’s time to stop the political games!

Trump is right that America needs to win the quantum computing race. But we have to be INCREDIBLY careful how much of this power we give to the government. Once that tech is unleashed, national secrets, bank accounts, and everything with a digital lock on it will become accessible overnight. And when combined with government ownership of AI, this provides the tools for a totalitarian state unlike anything we have ever seen. AI doesn't sit downstream of your life like a railroad or a bank. It sits upstream of your thoughts. If the state owns the tool that drafts your emails, answers your questions, and frames your choices, they don't need to censor you. The system will just groom you to never ask the question in the first place. We cannot give the government control over the tools we use to form our own minds. Because one day, someone will use them.

Obama: I am not immune to anger or doubt. But I do know this when we lose faith in each other, when we stop believing that voting matters… we open the door to the most ruthless or the most careless, or the most fearful among us who see some groups and some people as more equal than others and see government as nothing more than a way to divvy up the spoils and punish enemies, and keep those who are different in their place. I do not believe that is the story of America that prevails in the end.

Kevin Young on if he can put a finger on the first half struggles: “Most our struggles have been execution related. I didn’t think that was the case tonight. It’s hard to over come 9-of-12 from three. You have to give Bryson a lot of credit..I’ve examined it eight different ways to the moon and back. At the end of the day it’s shot making. We’re shooting the three at much higher clip in the second half than we are in the first. That’s something you can’t necessarily fix. It’s more about trying to make sure you’re executing, which tonight I thought we did for the most part in the first half.

We have MPs from the party that is in the executive, and because they are the majority, they call themselves the government and the minority call themselves the opposition. MPs are yet to learn that there is no government or opposition inside the parliament. #katibaday2025

One of the most impactful initiatives advancing civics and civil discourse in our nation is the Florida Civics and Debate Initiative (FCDI). Across Florida, students are not just reading about civics—they’re practicing it through respectful debate and dialogue. Since its 2020 launch, FCDI has grown from just 59 teams in 11 districts to over 330 teams in all 67 districts statewide.
