Teresa Hanafin writes a delightful daily feature for the Boston Globe called “Fast Forward,” where she summarizes the highlights of the day.

There is no public schedule for the golfing Trump (although he will strictly adhere to his private insult-tweeting routine), so you can amuse yourself with this breathtaking yet accurate report from the pool reporter assigned to write an account of Trump’s speech at that Pennsylvania factory yesterday, a speech that was supposed to be about the manufacturing and energy situation in the US:

“In a 67-minute speech that at times resembled a campaign rally, the president meandered through several topics — many having little to do with energy. He talked about trade, immigration, trucks, emoluments, his 2016 victory, union leaders, his poll numbers, the media, steel, China, the amount of money he believes he’s losing as president, the Green New Deal, windmills, the WTO ‘screwing us’, President Obama’s book deal, Hillary Clinton’s comments on coal workers, pipelines and New York, Iran, veterans choice and more.

“While this was listed as an official event, the president regularly drifted into explicit politicking — including asking the thousands gathered to support him in the next election and lobby union leadership to back him. He also mentioned his political mottos ‘Make America Great Again’ and ‘Keep America Great’ and criticized his Democratic rivals using nicknames like ‘Sleepy Joe’.”

Besides the bizarre stream-of-unconsciousness, the latter point raises a red flag: Trump isn’t supposed to campaign for reelection when he is on official government business. But he doesn’t think any rules or laws apply to him. He replaced all of the smart people in the ethics offices with seat-warming lackeys, so he can continue to use as much taxpayer money to subsidize his 2020 campaign as he wants.

Alyson Klein of Education Week writes about a bitter split between the for-profit K12 Inc. and the Georgia Cyber Academy, which it has run for 12 years.

Students locked out of their school’s computer systems. Educators unable to get access to some students’ records. Parents receiving emails asking that they return their children’s laptops.

That’s the state of play as K12 Inc., a major for-profit provider of online education, is in the midst of an acrimonious split with the Georgia Cyber Academy. The school, which serves about 11,000 students, is one of the largest virtual schools in the country.

To be sure, it’s hardly unusual for a vendor and charter school operator to go their separate ways. But it’s rare for both sides to be venting their frustrations so openly.

“This is the most public split between a vendor and a school that we’ve seen play out,” said Corrie Leech, the director of communications for the National Association of Charter School Authorizers.

K12 Inc. said the cyber academy was warned about potential disruptions if it withdrew from the company’s platform—a step K12 says violated an agreement.

The company has faced sharp criticism in a number of states—as have other operators of online charters—over its schools’ poor showing on state measures of academic progress, and questions about whether big public investments in its programs make sense. The company has argued that state accountability systems don’t provide an accurate gauge of its schools’ performances, and that its services are valued by parents whose children have struggled in traditional academic settings.
