This kid is the ultimate Democrat, not one word he says is factual but built to get as much emotional response. New College is the whitest college in Florida state system, it is the easiest to get into, and it has been slipping academically by many standards. It is also so small that my daughter's middle school is larger despite having only 3 grades vs being a full time college. He will go far as Dem so long as he keep lying the right way

Paying hush money is a crime. That should be illegal. 

 

You don't agree? Can't you see what that will lead to? 

Hush money is a crime? Interesting considering the amount of congressman who pay it to aides they harass.

When the power went out at Nate Graham’s New Mexico home last year, his family huddled around a fireplace in the cold and dark. Even the gas furnace was out, with no electricity for the fan. After failing to coax enough heat from the wood-burning fireplace, Graham’s wife and two children decamped for the comfort of a relative’s house until electricity returned two days later.

The next time the power failed, Graham was prepared. He had a power strip and a $150 inverter, a device that converts direct current from batteries into the alternating current needed to run appliances, hooked up to his new Chevy Bolt, an electric vehicle. The Bolt’s battery powered his refrigerator, lights and other crucial devices with ease. As the rest of his neighborhood outside Albuquerque languished in darkness, Graham’s family life continued virtually unchanged. “It was a complete game changer making power outages a nonissue,” says Graham, 35, a manager at a software company. “It lasted a day-and-a-half, but it could have gone much longer.”

Oh my.  Is far right propaganda not selling well?  Will have to monitor Tucker's ratings...

More of a good example that the CEO just works for the Board of Directors. 

 

The timing is epic after his hit piece on Pfizer..

 

would hate to have any money invested in that company now?  cause that's probably going to backfire.

You think Pfizer precipitated his leave?  It's probably about money but I doubt Pfizer was a consideration.  Could be I guess..

According to all reporting it was due to him being mean or something.  a hostile environment.  

 

I was just stating the timing aspect that is also noticed by many.

Hey !  Bipartisanship !

 

 

House: No non-citizen voting in DC

February 10, 2023

 

The House of Representatives on Thursday voted to block two Washington, D.C., laws, including one allowing noncitizens to vote.

 

The Republican-led House, with support from dozens of Democrats, voted 260-162 to repeal a district law giving noncitizens the right to vote in city elections, The Washington Post reported.

 

The D.C. Council in October passed legislation allowing noncitizens to vote in local elections, arguing that all D.C. residents have a vested interest in schools, public safety, and other local issues.

Is this a gotcha?

 

Can you point to where I said books like these are appropriate?


 

Can you tell me the difference between what DeSantis is banning and these books? You seemed to call DeSantis a Fascist for not allowing books like this is class

Tim, don't fall for the leftist trick of saying that these books are being "banned".  They are not.

 

You can go out and obtain one any time.

 

They ARE being deemed inappropriate for young children to be exposed to.

 

Completely different 

 

Leftists just want to have Desantis and banned in the same accusation, they are transparent.

GOOD: 

 

School Choice Rolls On.

 

 

The school choice revolution is here, and it isn’t going away. The past two legislative cycles brought the most significant advancements for school choice in United States history, and already in 2023, states are racing to make this cycle even bigger.

 

The progress of school choice in the last 30 years resembles an exponential function. Throughout the history of school choice, expansions have come through slow, incremental policy changes that garnered little national attention and expanded education options to small groups of students. Further, they have been predominantly accessible to lower-income families and students with special learning needs.

 

Everything changed in the last few years. Prompted by COVID-19-induced parent outrage, 24 states mobilized to create, expand, or improve school choice programs. Finally, in 2022, Arizona and West Virginia established the first universal school choice programs in the U.S. Every Arizona and West Virginia student is now eligible for an education that meets his or her individual needs.

 

Those victories might as well have been the starting gun for the school choice race. Since the program’s passage, Republican lawmakers and others around the country have mobilized to pass their own universal bills.

 

Already this year, Iowa and Utah passed laws granting education savings accounts to every student in their respective states. These advancements represent the fundamental belief that all students, regardless of ZIP code or family income, should be able to choose the education that best meets their individual needs. For the first time, that principle is becoming a reality.

And here is why.

 

 

Teacher says that right-wing ‘parents’ rights’ movement is ‘literally just fascism’

 

 

OK, this started out as a joke of sorts, but it’s panned out. It’s a teacher posting a video, so …

  1. Ridiculous glasses — check
  2. Septum piercing — check
  3. Pink, blue, or purple hair — we’re not sure as this teacher has a hat on, but it’s probably dyed.

We noted a couple of years ago that the Left had picked up on the phrase “parents’ rights” and had universally decided that was a bad thing. Fox News’ Juan Williams said parents’ rights was just code for “white race politics.” MSNBC’s Nicolle Williams claimed that “parental choice,” as defined by Govs. Ron DeSantis and Glenn Youngkin, was “dehumanization” and compared it to “Russians [who] get their soldiers to rape children.”

 

This educator says that the right-wing “parents’ rights” idea is “literally just fascism” and an attempt to erase trans people.

 

The Left has made it clear that the “g-word” — groomer — is anti-LGBTQ and hateful.

 

But our definition of groomer includes someone who tries to insert themselves between the child and their family … 

 

Parents are seen as the enemy because of their backward beliefs, and school is a safe space away from them.

 

Enough.

It never should have been pulled but when liberals are unhappy they do crap like this. This is an intentional overreaction by the school board to try and make DeSantis look bad, but the only people who believe it are people like you.

It will in all likelihood be put back, but you won't hear them mentioning it.
