Polls Are Basically Useless

What is the current abortion law in battleground states? -
I'm not in Blackburn's head so I'll not speak for her. Neither side is against allowing those that want to compete, to compete. One side believes women's competition is the appropriate place for these XY anomalies (allow me the flexibility to use that term, but I'm open to whatever you or any others want to use) to compete. The other side believes doing so presents an unfair advantage to XX athletes. We shouldn't conflate the desire to protect women's athletes and women's sports as being any more than just that.

You realize the convention will be scripted and on a teleprompter, right?

Not truthful, really. There were many reliefs implemented during covid, with the most significant being the direct stimulus payments and PPP. All combined they cut the poverty rate. It's also important to note that the poverty rate is a measure of household income and while that is certainly related to the amount spent on kiddos, it isn't a measure of the amount spent on kiddos. Again here, where those dollars were spent are the decisions of the parents. I know quite a few clients that purchased a new vehicle, when that really wasn't necessary, with these benefits. That purchase, which did prop up the economy (one goal of the stimulus), it really didn't provide any additional benefit to the kiddos. And as a poster already mentioned, the remote schooling has significantly impacted our younger children. Impact that will follow those children, and our society, for decades.

She's adopting a lot of the republican platform, right before our eyes. Maybe everything but abortion????

Is this law a good law, was probably more my question. My point is that rather than not enforcing a law, maybe we should work towards changing those laws. It's silly to have laws and willy nilly not follow of them became somebody, somewhere, doesn't agree with them. We wouldn't have any law if that were the case.

Is it a crime though?

To this day Hillary is calling trump an illegitimate president. You've got the buffalo head guy. I think these elected US senators were worse and a much greater threat. -

In what way is he a threat to the republic? All this sounds like politics that we've experienced over my lifetime (65 yrs). I don't understand the threat -

How do you think he's a threat to the republic? I'm a republican, I have not voted for Trump nor do I plan to this fall. But a threat to the republic? Really? That's laughable. -
LOL It died because dem senators broke ranks and didn't support the bill. With a majority in the senate, dems could have passed it. Just like HB2, the repubs passed it and sent it to the senate. HB2 is still sitting on Schumer's desk for introduction (for a year I might add). The senate bill didn't even make it to the house because of dem senators joining the repubs in not supporting the bill. blaming trump is your lazy response

The American Media Should Not Be Trusted
Pokebball replied to SCBills's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I think a bias is always present. Good journalists limit their bias in their reporting, but a bias always exists. I find it odd when anyone suggests otherwise. -

You honestly don't think the media has a bias?
