Paraphrasing:“We will never give up, we will


never concede!” President Donald Trump told
the crowd of supporters he had summoned to
Washington on Jan. 6. Within hours, a mob of
self-styled revolutionaries waving Trump flags
had stormed the Capitol. Trump’s last-ditch
attempt to steal the presidential election that
he unambiguously lost was not going well. In
the process, Trump helped ensure that the
GOP candidates in two Georgia runoff
elections would lose by slim margins, giving
Democrats control of the Senate. After Trump
lost the election, Republicans comforted
themselves that they still held 50 seats in the
Senate. But with the victories in Georgia,
Democrats now have 50 as well, making
them the majority once Vice President
Kamala Harris is in place to break ties.

they actually want to pursue in. Studies

employees have showen to work more 48
minutes more than before. Lots of people
believe we need to change in the way we
work that we are not robots.

olympians should be allowed to have a
certain number of sick days without having to
disclose the personal reason. Noami is

Paraphrasing:During the pandemic teachers,
custodians and anyone who works at schools
worked very hard to save our education by
taking care of their students. A teacher from
New York taught both 9th and 10th grade
English discussing global issues with her
students which were racism and injustice.
Henry Darby, a principal from North Carolina
worked a second job at Walmart to give back
to those in need. Mick Simpson, a custyodian
from Vacaville California was noticing some of
his younger students were scared of the
disinfectant that was used to soray things
down. He decided to get creative and
decorate it with a Ghostbuster theme which
he then named himself Covid-Buster.

being a young girl during World War ll. She

Goodall institute, which fundraised things for
animal sanctuaries. She uses her
experiences to encourage others and give
them a sense of hope. Her approach towards
the environment and global issue is rather
soft.
