The cartoon and the article both use libel in order to discredit Obama and make their…

Bold statement V Fidget spinners, despite their slightly interesting looks, are complete disruptions from all classrooms. Only in some cases are they ever used to help someone focus, and even then it draws attention from around the room if it makes noise or looks flashy. Some students may be more focused on the idea of a small toy that spins rather than the importance of some school work. Along with the distraction that fidget spinners have, they’re also dangerous in some cases. Fidget…
