Title: pos 'pubs being complete pieces of crap
Post by: sys on March 18, 2018, 06:14:32 PM
this isn't worth a thread, but i couldn't find a thread it made sense to put it in.  anyways, it's a really good profile.

Trump hates loafer, especially bloviated self serving loafer politicians.  This Senator was not on the stage because he is black.  He was there because he is a worker willing to do what needs to ne done.  How dare does Trump honor people of color who work to better our nations and their communities says the liberal guardians of blacks and peons.  These scantimonious loafers are peaved that their guardianship is being threatened.  How dare Trump treat individuals with honor for what they do.  The guardians believe they must keep all people in a collective herd of dependent victims.  This Senator needs to move to Kansas so we could vote for him.

I would argue that Trey Gowdy and Nikki Haley are not "POS republicans". It is possible you don't agree with their policy ideas, but they aren't purposefully obtuse, ignorant, racist, or evil as defined by Sys.

This thread is probably more for public figures, but I would toss my hat in the ring here. Mostly because I am a registered republican but IMHO I am not a POS.

I think that is an actually admirable thread to have. It is possible you were doing it as a joke, but it is a good reminder to see that not all republicans are Trump clones who agree whole heartedly with all of his decisions. A large chunk of the party publicly disagrees with him regularly. It is interesting to follow the different primaries that compare heavily pro trump pubs running against pubs that keep themselves separate from his rhetoric. It is important to remember that if he is a one term president that these elected officials will be around after he is gone.

I feel like that muddies the insult. Johnny Congressman who sits in a committee that seems to get nowhere on a bill that constantly changes because Trump is unpredictable and never makes it to the floor because it would never pass is not on the same level as Trump or his group of POS buddies at the top. We might need a POS spectrum for this thread. 1 being they have done some things that feel a little POS like and 10 being a full blown case of POS.

Trump has like a 90 percent approval rate by republicans, republican opposition to trump is a myth

I struggle with that. Besides my parents and in-laws (Olds) I have yet to meet someone who leans right and whole heartedly approves of everything Trump is up to. I would blame it on the divisive nature of the political system as it exists in the present.

That is an oversimplification and most definitely inaccurate. But my only argument is that the surveys results are misleading and that it is possible the demographic they are surveying is skewed or the question is misleading. Which all sounds like I am in denial. Maybe I am, or maybe the numbers don't say what many in this thread would assume they do? Sucks that both parties are overwhelmed with such shitty agendas and there is still no viable third party option.

I would assume he was talking about the idea that all pubs have either left the party or become Trump supporters.

Is it possible the majority of the electorate just doesn't care about politics as long as their outlook on life is positive? For now they might feel great about their future because of the state of the economy and remain ignorant to the minutiae because they don't follow any reliable news source.

I commented just above this that it could be based on a general complacency coming from their outlook on their lives specifically. I have met a lot of people who don't follow politics like we do who could easily be ignorant to both the domestic and foreign politicking that we see on the daily news.

100% agree and it is a choice that many in the electorate choose without a second of hesitation. My main argument against giving absolute power to the popular vote in the presidential election. That is a different discussion, so we don't have to talk about it here, but I will say openly that I don't trust our electorate to make rational decisions on public policy.

Well if you trust gallup polling, those are the two explanations for the 90% approval rating. 

I assume a lot of people were relatively comfortable (economically speaking) under Obama, but I'd bet his approval rating among republicans was a small fraction of 90%.  It's a matter of prioritizing values.   I'm fine with some of what Trump has done, but until he gets the border figured out I certainly wouldn't say I approve of him.

He's not in denial.  This board (left) wants so badly to paint every Republican out to be a Trump supporter when in fact that isn't true.  Each side has become so polarized that it makes having a discussion impossible.  I've enjoyed reading the views of both sides of a topic when they come with arguments based with support of that argument.  There are several posters on both sides that come with nothing more than disdain for anyone with an opposing view, like libliblib.  Zero credibility.

to be fair, when i first learned about that sample size stuff, it surprised me too. 

but gallup samples that amount of people about every two weeks and it's remained relatively consistent throughout his presidency.  his low was about 77% in December.  if his true approval among republicans is closer to 50 or 60 percent (like i presume IHPW and Wacky think), how is that explained? is this some strange coincidence that's been occurring twice a month for the last year and a half?  you would think that if the true number is closer to 50 or 60 percent at least one of the 1500 person polls would reflect that.

I think your opinion of the polling system will be driven by your own perception. If you love Trump, you will be psyched by those approval rating percentages, thus admitting they are a good measurement. But a week later if the same company puts out polling numbers that say something you disagree with you suddenly doubt their validity.

It is driven by our desire to be correct, but also to be part of the consensus. It is comforting to be a part of the majority.

There is also mystery around something we don't comprehend that makes polling even more hazy. If you don't understand the math / formulas / etc. behind the process it can appear easily manipulated. No one would doubt that Kim Jong Un, Xi Jinping, or Vladimir Putin purposefully manipulate polling to say what they want it to say. So, dependent on your trust of the source you can start to believe in a broader conspiracy to mislead the public. If anything Trump (cleverly or accidentally) has convinced his base to completely distrust any and all media. So, because an American president can't manipulate the poll numbers he has instead successfully convinced A LOT of people the polls are inaccurate or manipulated by his enemies.

Stats are still highly susceptible to manipulation. But yes, people would do better to understand how some samples are better than others.

I personally have found algebra pretty useful fwiw.

The Soviets were the 4 time defending gold medalists and had won 5 of the previous 6 gold medals.  They were also the favorites to win the gold that year too.  So I guess if you look at the numbers a certain way you could come to the conclusion that 75% favorites is a good bet.  You are a good poker player so I know you know how percentages work.  If I have a 7/2 off suit I'm definitely going against the field when there are 2 kings an ace and a 3 on the board before the river.  I did it in Vegas 1 time and won so I know it works.

538's final aggregate of polls had:

clinton 48.5%
trump 44.9%

the actual vote was:

clinton 48.2%
trump 46.1%

off by 0.3% for clinton and 1.2% for trump.



538's preferred predictive model, which is not the same thing as a poll, gave clinton a 71.4% chance of winning

he's incredibly good at attracting attention, for which he has an insatiable appetite.  and he does a lot of things that are newsworthy, much more so than any president during my lifetime.


it's also true that the media has also covered other governments in great detail and people just didn't pay as much attention, because they were boring.

What's bad with Trump voters is a single source and running with it.  The banner(at his rally) saying that his twitter account is your real new source, when so SO many of his tweets are deceptively wrong and proven false, on actual facts is laughable.  A vast majority of stuff he retweets(outside of Fox and Friends, which is watches religiously, on repeat) originates from sites like 4Chan.  You, WackyCat08, are the prime demographic that he targets, mold-able, outgoing, the perfect propaganda machine material.

personally, i would only consider people that didn't enable trump to run rampant through our government.  that seems like a very low bar, but i guess it's possible to place it even lower.

He is the worst.

Quote
So for more than six months he checked out of a platform that he had used to hone his image, gathering nearly 250,000 followers. It had become a toxic place where Trump supporters — or bots posing as presidential backers — and liberals heckled him in coarse terms, either for opposing Trump or for not doing enough to stop Trump.

Sasse and his wife, Melissa, developed ground rules for their children to stay off their phones for a certain stretch. “We think it’s overwhelmingly net negative for kids,” he said of social media.

He broke his Twitter moratorium once in the first half of the year, to denounce Trump’s tariff proposals, and returned only a few days ago.

“I took seven months off from Twitter and almost forgot that we’re supposed to hate each other,” he tweeted Thursday night.

And by Sunday night, he was in a full-fledged tweetstorm, blasting away at Putin and warning Trump to get tough with the Russian dictator.


Quote
Sasse considers himself a “futurist nerd” who obsesses over the tech revolution, but he still has to figure out his own future, whether he will take up the cause of leading the anti-Trump GOP wing after Corker and Flake retire at the end of the year or whether he will move on to another field.

Do not expect him to be nearly as prolific on Twitter, unless you are looking for updates on how the University of Nebraska’s new football coach fares this fall. His real dream job would be as an assistant coach for the Cornhuskers.

“I pledge to you right now,” he said in the interview, “I will announce it on Twitter.”

the abject cowardice of senate republicans is arguably the most notable thing of trump's first two years.

Quote
This means that just one Republican senator joining the Democrats and independents would give them 50 votes, against only 49 Republicans, on days when McCain did not vote. And in even with all members present, a total of two Republican senators have it in their power to create a 51-vote majority and impose limits on an executive they know to be out of control.

Who might those two senators theoretically be? A list I offered early this year still applies:

        Two like Jeff Flake and Bob Corker who are not running for re-election and have no primary-challenge consequences to fear;
        Two like Orrin Hatch and John McCain who mainly have their places in history to think about;
        Two like the young Ben Sasse and the veteran Lamar Alexander who pride themselves on being “thoughtful”;
        Two like Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski who pride themselves on being “independent”;
        Two like Rand Paul and Mike Lee who pride themselves on their own kind of independence;
        Two like Rob Portman and John Barrasso who pride themselves on being decent;
        Two like Marco Rubio and Tom Cotton with conceivable long-term higher-office hopes;
        Two like Tim Scott and James Lankford who jointly wrote a statement on the need for broad-minded inclusion;
        Two like Chuck Grassley and Richard Shelby, who like Hatch and McCain are in their 80s and conceivably have “legacy” on their minds (remember that in the Alabama Senate race Shelby took a stand against his party’s odious nominee, Roy Moore);
        One like Dean Heller, facing a tough re-election race, plus maybe Lindsey Graham, who used to be among the leaders in blunt talk about Trump’s excesses.

It likes “Make America Great Again” because rich white dudes used to roll through society and over everyone else with even greater impunity than they do now.

All of it. It's boring, lazy logic. The fact that he uses "it," as if you could ascribe universal characteristics to a group that is, at best, a loose confederation of groups with unique interests. The self-flagellating hubris of a woke hetero cys white American modern man is a thing to behold. As a general matter, generalizations should generally be avoided. I can understand the desire to divine simplicity from chaos and complexity, but in the end he is no different than the spider, which by a lazy contemplation of four inches round, by an overwhelming pride, which feeding and engendering on itself, turns all into excrement and venom, producing nothing at last but fly-bane and a cobweb.

I read it like it is a theory meant to explain why Republicans (including representatives and their constituents) vote the way they do in recent years. They do largely vote as a group, I'd say. I don't think it's a theory that is obviously and easily disproven.

Both parties have gobbled up voting blocks that care about various issues. Some people vote Republican solely because they think abortion is legalized murder (a very logical, moral choice if you believe this). Some vote Republican because they are afraid of minorities, true. Some vote Republican because they only care about lower taxes. Some vote Republican because they prefer conservative Justices over Liberal (capital 'L') ones. Some vote Republican because of religious issues. Et cetera. Et cetera. To suppose that the tie that binds is protection of white, rich maledom--while very on-brand in certain progressive circles--is to ignore nuance for the sake of self-gratification. And now we have Trump...

I mean, I think you already know this, but their ignorance isn’t about whether or not Warren’s great great great great grandfather or grandmother was Native American. It’s their ignorant belief that you can’t claim Native American heritage when your ties are that remote.

Quote
GOP Rep. Steve King (Iowa) on Saturday defended his association with a Nazi-linked group in Austria, telling The Washington Post that the group is “far right.”

He made the comments about Austria’s Freedom Party, a group founded by a former Nazi SS officer and whose current leader was active in neo-Nazi circles, according to the paper.

“If they were in America pushing the platform that they push, they would be Republicans,” King, who is known for his inflammatory statements about immigration, told the Post.

Kinda surprised you dweebs defend him. But you are pos, so it makes sense.

Even if it was an accident, it was caused by him throwing a temper tantrum baby fit. The dude is an embarrassment---and you are defending him.

Heard this story on the radio yesterday and thought "Blackface is pretty bad."  The next sentence was "He was posing as a Hurricane Katrina victim" and I was amazed he could pretty much double the shittiness.

So, do we think he's lying? Bold strategy, if so. He's quite vulnerable.

I'm almost inclined to believe him, because lying would be too risky. But then again, who initially admits to something like this?

I agree it would be (or is) a Hail Mary play. Just leaves him vulnerable to attack. But, I guess a slim chance of success is better than none. At this point, if a single person comes forward publicly and claims he saw the dude in blackface/KKK garb, he's toast. No one will insist on investigating the claim.

I've heard someone say that they don't think blackface is racist if it's halloween and you are dressing up as a specific person, but it is racist if you are just being a generic black guy. I take "not sure" to be someone with that sort of opinion.

I do like that people were not sure whether they were democrat, republican, independent, or other, though.

Depends on how directly you focus on the question.  I could see myself putting Other/Not sure on that one cause whether something is racist almost always depends on context. I don’t think a 5 year old is racist if he black faces up to look like a famous black person for Halloween, but if he does because his parents encouraged him to then yeah I think they’re probably at least a little racist.

Ok, so Governor Ralph "Coonsman" Northam is in trouble for being a massive racist DB and is probably going to have to resign. He's also a complete moron or monster (choose your interpretation) on late term abortion / infanticide (choose your interpretation), but the media would prefer to focus on some ignorant racist crap he did in college.

No problem. Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax is a a perfect replacement! He's "a black"! Phew. Crisis averted. Except that he's being "credibly accused of rape." Sorry, that's the phrase the media used when smearing Brett Kavanaugh, so I assume they'll apply the same standard here. A prominent publication like, say, the Washington Post, wouldn't apply a completely different threshold of proof for a democrat, would they? Nah. Now we have this.

https://twitter.com/jonallendc/status/1093189392196427777

So if Fairfax has to step down, next up is the VA AG Mark Herring. Who now conceded he too is a massive racisty biggoted racist (https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/another-one-virginia-ag-mark-herring-admits-to-wearing-blackface-in-1980). That simply won't do.

Finally, that'll bring us the Speaker of the House, who is a Republican and therefore probably not a massive racist or rapist.

I should also mention that the Speaker of the House (R) landed the job as a result of a coin flip. Kinda like how the Pats landed in the Super Bowl.

But I think the key takeaway is: If the roles were reversed and these were Pubs at risk of losing the governorship, I am sure an apology would be totally acceptable and we could all move on.

the problem is that there isn't an effective mechanism to remove the gov.  i think almost everyone agrees that the gov and lt gov should resign (not sure if there is a similar consensus on the ag).  they just don't agree and it's not an easy matter to force them out, if it can be done at all.

and obviously, no dems think they should hand the governorship over to the pubs, nor is that required.  they could hand off to dems if they agreed to step down.

Guys, this has been bothering me since yesterday. It has to be said.... I don't understand why this discussion is in a thread called "pos 'pubs being complete pieces of crap." I started a new thread with a really awesome title called "Another Round of Applause for Virginia" - but thanks to poor modding I have to go to this completely wrong-ass thread name to joke about these racist/rapist VA politicos.

Alright, no offense and Go Cats but I needed to get that off my chest.

Sadly there's a lot of angst, a lot of hand wringing, and a lot of back room planning in LibDerp Nation about how they're gonna pull this one out of the fire and save face (oops) on this one.   But the wagons are gathering and it won't be long before LibDerp Nation rides over that hill to protect their latest round of ultra-racists and female assaulter's.

Distorting criticism of The State of Israel as anti-Semitism is increasingly more of a thing. And sometimes it comes from pos's who are cool with actual anti-Semitism.

Suppose you have nine black marbles and one white marble in your pocket. Without seeing it, I assume that the one you just pulled out of your pocket is black. It's the correct assumption for me to make even if that marble is in fact white.

Probably should have read the Miami Herald article, first. Certainly seems she is/was probably connected to some sex work. What's unclear is whether it was coerced sex work. I don't really care about prostitution, so long as both parties are truly consenting. I don't think it even needs to be said, but obviously forced prostitution is vile and evil.

What cracks me up though is her "new life," which apparently involves her worming her way into GOP events in order to snap pictures with party leaders, then turning around and pointing to those pics as proof that she has influence to sell, thereby grifting unsuspecting Chinese businessmen looking to purchase influence. She and Don belong together.

Could go in the abortion thread, but it fits better here:
https://www.esquire.com/news-politics/politics/a27479184/alabama-abortion-ban-clyde-chambliss/

Quote
And, lastly, there's this cat, Clyde Chambliss, the Pride of Prattville, who was one of the prime movers of the law, and who was asked whether in vitro fertilization clinics that discard embryos could be criminally liable under this new law. Of course not, Chambliss replies. After all, people Chambliss knows might need to use those.

"The egg in the lab doesn’t apply. It’s not in a woman. She’s not pregnant."

Game? Given away. This wasn't about protecting god's little embryos. It was about asserting control over women, taking away their physical autonomy in the most intimate fashion.

Sounds pretty dirty.   Now, if LibDerp Nation and its leaders would just admit that they only took the immigration stance they took starting in January of 2017 (along with movements in numerous LibDerp controlled states to allow illegals to obtain things like drivers licenses and create a pathway to non citizens voting in national elections) in order to begin to skew the voting ranks towards a perma-majority (along with nuking the electoral college which would clearly favor LibDerp controlled sanctuary states)  . . . then we'll be on a course to getting things back on track.

I dont know anything about this Cucinelli guy, but I encourage our local civic activists to study our asylum laws as written and learn/reinforce what exactly they cover. I'm not advocating for changing our asylum laws. You should just read them.

By the way, within the past year I helped a Muslim male from the middle east who entered this country illegally across the southern border gain legal asylee status in this country by representing him in front of the Board of Immigration Appeals, so spare the ad hominens/tu quoques.

It's a commercial for apparel company "Grunt Style" that was made to air during the Super Bowl (but was pulled by the company because they felt it would have been too financially risky for them to go through with it):

Rudy just clipped the company name off the end.  I can only imagine the crap storm of controversy had it actually aired.  Probably similar to the WaPo ad but in the other direction.

Bucket, I know you're a little slow, I'm not slandering the guy, I'm  :lol: :lol: at LibBot Nation taking up the mantle that anyone who served in the military cannot be questioned.   With the full understanding that's it now opposite world and LibBot Nation will side with anyone that's OrangeMan Bad.   But LibBot Nation has over the years collectively hated the military, and lost their mind any time Pubs tried to wrap themselves in the flag (and military uniforms).

They need someone to discredit as an Obama-loving never Trumper. Really the best thing they could do at this point is just make up someone who doesn't exist. Their base would eat that up and any media coverage pointing out that this guy isn't real would just be part of the deep state cover up.

Anybody here ever listen to Sandy Rios in the morning on American Family Radio? I pop it on during my morning commute sometimes for LOLs and whooooooo baby was she going in hard on the whistleblower. Using his name every possible time -- yet mispronouncing it (and mispronouncing the easy part! Not the hard part!). Also posed the question, "Essentially, what is the difference between a whistleblower and a leaker, anyway???"

Because your front runner is a self proclaimed admirer of the Soviet system in all its forms and attempts.  Meanwhile you declare any and all disagreement with your (mostly idiotic) ideas and beliefs as derivative of a far right wing mindset.  For example, mere disagreement with a person of color’s ideas or politics has been defined by the left as racism. 

Not hard.

The article has some gems too!

Quote
“My comments were not to discourage anybody, okay,” Rodriguez said. “They were comments that I received from the national news about the work of China. Chinese people in Italy, and how they worked, how China deliberately did what they did.”

Rodriguez said that people from China may have their nationality there, but ultimately, people are Americans after taking their “oath of citizenship” and have an American nationality too.

“You may have Chinese background, but you’re not no longer, as far as I am concerned, because of my name, I don’t look at me as Spanish or Mexican, or anything like that,” he said. “I’m American. It’s not meant to be disparaging on anybody, and it was taken out of context.”

Quote
Manhattan resident Luke Townsend said that the commission’s reaction to Fang’s comments was “a poor attempt at deflection.”

“Your silence is condoning this, and it’s concerning for me,” Townsend said.

Wells said he has built many homes for Chinese people and has eaten Chinese food in the area. Townsend asked Wells if he would condemn Rodriguez’s comments.

“It’s not up to me to be making comments,” Wells said. “He has to stand on his own two feet on what his comments were.”

Wells said, in the end, that he “doesn’t condone it,” after Townsend asked again if Wells would condemn the comments.

“Well, they say it came out of China,” he answered, “and I’m not putting it past the Chinese government in communist China.” Meaning, to export a virus on purpose? “Normally, this kind of thing spreads slowly,” he answered, so “I put two and two together. I’ve been around a long time, girl.”

Republicans say high voter turnout favors Democrats, although that is not always the case. Ralston doesn’t want the mail-in primary to set a precedent for future elections in which heavier use of mail-in ballots drives turnout higher in the general election, when the parties compete against each other.

Ralston said he agreed with President Donald Trump’s criticism of proposals by Democrats for changes in elections such as increased voting by mail and same-day voter registration.

“The things they had in there were crazy. They had things, levels of voting that if you’d ever agreed to it, you’d never have a Republican elected in this country again,” Trump said Monday on “Fox & Friends.”

I think they're worried about more Democratic voters getting engaged in a primary and then voting in the general election.  Also, probably scared of the vote by mail option gaining any popularity to make changes to the general down the line.

Also, lol @ Brian rough ridin' Kemp being worried about the legality of his election decisions.

The threat of the coronavirus is creating unprecedented demand for absentee ballots; many Republican lawmakers are responding by trying to limit access. There are laws on the books to help them in one regard. Currently, seven states permit only elderly voters to mail in their ballots: Indiana, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina, and Texas grant this privilege to voters 65 and older; Tennessee extends it to those 60 and older; and Kentucky only bestows it upon voters of “advance age.” (None of these states have waived their age limit for the November election, though Indiana and Kentucky did so for their primaries.) Younger people who want to vote by mail must give a reason, such as a serious illness or absence from the state on Election Day. As New York magazine’s Ed Kilgore has noted, these laws effectively limit absentee voting to “Trump-approved groups,” older Americans who are much more likely to vote Republican.

Yes. I'm sure he takes his role seriously, but my confidence in the entire supreme court is completely eroded, it has become just as partisan as the executive and legislative branches. If Bitch did in fact force this judge out, no crap, nothing at all will happen. I wish I linked the article I read a few weeks ago, but the number of 5-4 votes, by this current makeup of the court, is at an all-time high, by far.

Maybe one day I'll dig into the history of the SC and see if it has always been this way or if there was a change, pretty sure of the answer though.

Yes. I'm sure he takes his role seriously, but my confidence in the entire supreme court is completely eroded, it has become just as partisan as the executive and legislative branches. If Bitch did in fact force this judge out, no crap, nothing at all will happen. I wish I linked the article I read a few weeks ago, but the number of 5-4 votes, by this current makeup of the court, is at an all-time high, by far.

Maybe one day I'll dig into the history of the SC and see if it has always been this way or if there was a change, pretty sure of the answer though.

This is a stub article, but you can find similar analyses everywhere. SCOTUS has always agreed more than it disagrees:

Quote
The ratio is staggering. According to the Supreme Court Database, since 2000 a unanimous decision has been more likely than any other result — averaging 36 percent of all decisions. Even when the court did not reach a unanimous judgment, the justices often secured overwhelming majorities, with 7-to-2 or 8-to-1 judgments making up roughly 15 percent of decisions. The 5-to-4 decisions, by comparison, occurred in only 19 percent of cases.

https://www.pogo.org/analysis/2018/06/those-5-to-4-decisions-on-supreme-court-9-to-0-is-far-more-common/

Justices are people. As such, they are subject to the same passions and prejudices as the world in which they live. SCOTUS has always tried to remain apolitical. Of course, concepts such as the Political Question Doctrine and Separation of Powers can look like political cudgels depending on whether you like or dislike the ultimate ruling. I just don't think it's fair or warranted to lump the Judicial Branch together with the two political branches of government. That erodes the public trust in the single institution that was designed to be a check on the otherwise unchecked potential of the political branches of government. It hasn't always been perfect, but over time it does a far better job protecting our rights than the Legislative and Executive Branches.

And don't forget that Roberts was the crucial 5th vote needed to uphold Obamacare. Since Kennedy's retirement, he has often stepped into the role of swing vote in sensitive cases.

By the way, SCOTUS is experimenting with broadcasting oral arguments live. I'll be listening to one tomorrow morning, and resident politics wonks may want to tune in next week when SCOTUS will hear arguments in the Trump tax return/financial records subpoena cases.

Just saw that 5-4 stat was debunked on politifact.

I certainly didn't mean to imply that the judicial branch is just as partisan than the executive and legislative branches, but it's impossible for them to be fully removed from the partisanship when they were all nominated using litmus tests. Unlike dax, I don't think one party is more culpable than the other, it's just the nature of where we are now.

If we checked historically, I guess the litmus tests and partisanship bleeding into the SCOTUS has its roots in Roe v. Wade.

To me, it would be FDR and the New Deal era. Roosevelt threatened to "pack the court" (increase the number of justices from 9 to some number I forget; maybe 15 or 20?) unless the Court started upholding his programs as constitutional. (Nowhere does the Constitution specify that SCOTUS must have 9 justices; it's just been that way for a very long time. The original Court had 6 Justices, but as RBG recently opined, "9 seems like a good number to me."). During this era there was a staunch core of conservative justices referred to as "the Four Horsemen" (lol). Lots of 5-4 defeats for Roosevelt. Anyway, one of the justices who had reliably found the New Deal programs unconstitutional had a change of heart and started voting to uphold every single one. The whole confrontation between FDR and the Court is known as "the switch in time that saved nine". Thus, the limitless expansion of congressional authority pursuant to the Commerce Clause and the corresponding expansion of federal power that marked the 20th century.

The interesting thing about Roe is that it was far less controversial when decided than it later became.

It's really unusual for someone to spring from L&HH into irl rap stardom, vs. falling from rap stardom or even rap adjace stardom-ish into L&HH.  I think an ep I watched recently had the character introducing herself something like "that's right, you know me, the girl from the elevator incident with bow wow."

In last week's episode of Love & Hip Hop, we saw the return of fan favorites like Yandy Smith-Harris, Amina Buddafly and Tara Wallace as well as the debuts of Remy Ma, Miss Moe Money, Sexxy Lexxy, Bianca Bonnie and Mariahlynn. In this week's episode, we are introduced to stripper Cardi B. She's loud, proud and doesn't care what you think about her. With her unfiltered and aggressive attitude, she's sure to ruffle some feathers this season.

Aside from her outrageous personality, we find out that she's been hooking up with DJamer Self. While things are more on the fun casual side, Cardi doesn't know that her DJamer man candy has been in a relationship with dancer Yorma Hernandez for about a year. While Cardi is still in the dark, Yorma has had her suspicions for some time and calls out Self when she found some thing in their show that wasn't hers. While he's obviously playing her, he swears that the jewelry Yorma found was the maid who came in that week. But why would a maid decide to take a shower in her boss' place during her break? Well, we'll have to find out and see how this love triangle pans out.

LOL Bolsheviks were a radicalized far left Marxist faction and communism aka radical socialism were the birthing ground of some of the biggest and most dangerous fascist dictators to ever hold a seat of power on this planet. 


The co founder of BLM flat out admitted that BLM is a Marxist derived movement.  The finance person is a convicted terrorist with, to put it mildly, intense anti capitalist sentiment.

It was Democrats who ordered the spying on MLK, and it was LBJ who used the CIA to spy on the civil rights movement.

Given how Obama used Brennan and the CIA to spy on Congress and Journalists, I'm going to toss that one back over the fence where history says it stays, Bidenbot.7

But a complete idiot like you doesn't understand this.

"I also want to make a direct apology to all people of color and women. Passing off demeaning and worn out racial stereotypes as humor isn't funny," he said, reading from a prepared statement. "I now fully understand how hurtful it is and I can and will do better and we can all do better. We must."

Quote
"Hell no, I'm not resigning," he told the newspaper. "The people elected me and I have a few months more to serve."

Presgraves, who is not running for reelection, told the newspaper that he did not anticipate his remark would be met with backlash.

"I thought it was humorous," he said. "I had no idea people would react the way they did. I think people have gone overboard on this … It's an election year."

It's called tailgate because the meeting materials are put on it and/or just the spot where construction crew get together when they get to the work site to discus the planned job and safety awareness.

Before the shooting, after the shooting the goal is to hold onto every morsel of money and power possible. There's no future political success in the republican party without swallowing maga whole. It's why the only legislators who have spoke out against him are either mad old or are primary proof.

As per usual you are wrong.  I actually enjoyed him quite a bit but didn't get thrown into a tizzy and get my wittle feelings hurt if I didn't agree with what he wrote.  That's the big difference here.  The vast majority of this board has difficulty in seeing anything objectively (you included).  Instantly calling him a grifter or GOP pos which is so much easier to do than doing any self reflection.

I question how big it will be. Maybe I'm wrong but I'd think younger, more impassioned voters would be more diligent about reading and following the instructions on these ballots. If you're a dem, panicked that your vote won't count, wouldn't you be inclined to read the directions?

this is true.  his vibe is pure shitweasel and he's a sycophant's sycophant, but he's been instrumental in passing key legislation and more generally in running a competent, run of the mill treasury.  and unlike every other competent to semi-competent member of trump's initial cabinet, he actually lasted the entire term.

as a slightly related observation, i'm absolutely astounded that 1) trump's admin hasn't been pushing as hard as it can push to extend and expand the relief measures, and 2) that the expiration of the measures passed in the spring and failure to pass anything additional hasn't been a bigger story.

there's a reasonable argument to be made both that the cares act was the single most effective u.s. govt economic intervention in my lifetime and that the failure to extend and expand that effort is the most foolish and reckless u.s. govt response to an economic crisis in my lifetime.  and it's not even on like the top 5 in news coverage.

also because it's completely unnecessary.  we need targeted relief.  there are people out of work due to the pandemic, there are businesses that through no fault of their own, are insolvent or nearly so.  state and local governments face severely reduced tax receipts.  and all of those provide perverse incentives not to enact measures that we know would reduce the spread of the virus.

but those are targeted problems.  most people have not lost their jobs.  most people's incomes have not been not reduced.  in fact, because there is less to spend their money on, household savings are way up.  as a country, the consumer is in better shape now that at the start of the year.

and this [redacted] wants to send everyone in the country 20 or 30k just cuz.  nevermind that we'd be talking 30-40% of gdp.  or increasing the natl debt by about the same.  the best thing this dumbfuck can think to do with 8 trillion dollars is cash out every citizen for no reason whatsoever.

Comparing the population of Harris County (Houston) to entire states is great and all, but that's not a real indicator of how this change will impact voting. Who are the people who request (and are granted) a mail-in ballot and, instead of just dropping it in the mail, drive to a designated drop-off location?? I have to assume postage is pre-paid, so it's not a matter of not having a stamp. I tried to get a mail-in ballot in 2016, and the voting commissioner told me to eff right off.

Voters who believe that the USPS is a rough ridin' mess, whether purposefully or not, and want to make sure their vote counts.  Also people who might not turn their ballots in until a week out and, again, don't trust the USPS to get it counted in time given that Republicans are trying to pass bills saying ballots should be counted same day or not at all. I don't buy your theory that population isn't an indicator. either  Population centers in TX are largely Democrat strongholds and now probably have the shittiest person to drop off location ratio. 

Trump was complaining about not having poll watchers for non-voting location drop offs and Texas jumped to attention.  If they want to allow poll watchers that follow the rules, fine, but there are plenty of dipshit Trumpers in Texas to monitor those 12 locations.

We only have "mail-in" ballots here; you don't request one.  It gets mailed to us automatically.  There's a return, postage-paid envelope you can mail it back in, but there's also boxes all over town.  I almost always drop mine off in one of the boxes; I just feel better knowing it's going through a process exclusive to the election rather than it mingling with all the other work the postal service has to do.

Isn't the USPS prioritizing mail-in ballots, now? Anyway, I've lived in Texas for most of my voting life and can honestly say I've never heard about ballot drop-off locations. Were I lucky enough to have a mail-in ballot, that sucker would go straight in the mail. And for the paranoid crowd, HOW CAN YOU BE SURE YOUR VOTE IS GOING TO GET COUNTED EVEN IF YOU DROP IT OFF?!?

I was hoping someone could make a compelling case for not mailing your mail-in ballot, and then connect the dots to how this harms dems/benefits pubs. Distrust of the postal service is one possible explanation, I guess. Wouldn't move the needle for me personally, though.

Seems awfully dumb if there's a 50/50 shot that it hurts you more than it helps. Perhaps the thinking is that this will have an impact, if at all, in large metropolitan centers, which skew more blue. Still, I'd just drop that little guy in outgoing mail and go on living my life.

yes, it should disproportionally impact dems 1) because it's harder to get to one drop box per county in a county with 4 million people than in one with 4k people and dems are strongly concentrated in the populous counties, and 2) dems are using mail in ballots at a much higher rate than 'pubs in 2020 because trump has spent 6 months messaging that mail in ballots are incompatible with democracy.

somewhat counterbalanced by texas restricting no-excuse mail in ballots to those over 65, which will skew republican.  but i'm sure abbott's people have done the math.

i'm not sure i completely understand the strategy - actual official drop boxes are pretty abundant and easy to find, so i find it a bit hard to believe that they think they can increase turnout by making collection more convenient.

the idea floated by rouda (that they'd "lose" ballots from dem voters), is entirely plausible.  obviously that's sort of assuming the worst, but, i mean, they are illegally collecting ballots.  there's not a ton of innocent explanations for that.

it could be more benign.  like, data is important to campaigns.  just collecting the names of voters that have already cast ballots so they could cross them off their contact list and focus resources on voters that hadn't voted would have some value.

It isn't illegal though, if they actually turn them in.

it is illegal.  someone else can turn your ballot in for you, but the ballot has to be given to that person, it can't be deposited in an unmanned receptacle.

if they wanted to have person stationed at the dropbox, i believe then it would be legal.

i think it is.  there may be some grey area in that there's no penalty for operating an illegal collection box or something, but it's not a valid ballot if the ballot envelope doesn't specify a person authorized to turn in the ballot for the voter.

Quote
Florida's governor has drafted "anti-mob" legislation to expand already controversial Stand Your Ground laws -- to allow people to shoot looters, according to a report.

A draft of Gov. Ron DeSantis' proposed bill expands the list of "forcible felonies" under Florida's self-defense law to include criminal mischief causing "interruption or impairment" of a business, according to the Miami Herald, which obtained a copy through a records request.

It also specifically allows force against those looting, which the draft defines as burglary within 500 feet of a "violent or disorderly assembly."

DeSantis also wants to make it a third-degree felony to block traffic during a protest -- and offer immunity to drivers who accidentally kill or injure protesters who do so, according to the Herald.

This may not belong here but I'm putting it here because the judge is a Republican.   This is from my old roommate's FB page.

Mar 10
Had my dogs tethered to a stake in the front yard this morning. Amazon Prime delivery person delivered a package next door. He ran through my yard and onto the neighbor's sidewalk on the way to the door as they often do because our houses are rather close. My dogs barked at him and lunged toward him only to get clothes lined by the tether. I know this because I was standing right there. Four hours later and animal control is at my door saying my dog "bit or scratched" someone. I showed animal control the tether, and how it doesn't extend beyond my property line. I said I was outside when what I expect is the root of the incident occurred. She stated she was going to have to quarantine my dog for 10 days. I said that's fine, but I'd like to see some evidence of the claim before I hand my animal over for quarantine. She said there is no evidence requirement in the state of Texas, that a claim is sufficient. I asked, "What's to keep someone who might have been attacked in a worse neighborhood by an unknown stray just using the fact that my dogs were outside as a means to an end?" Animal Control, "I can't answer that." She then requested my ID. I refused. She reiterated the 10 day quarantine. I advised her that if she had a warrant to enter my property, I would not attempt to stop her. She did not have a warrant and stated she was not going to enter my property. She said she would put a hanger on my door and notify her supervisor. 10 min. later 2 Plano police officers were at my door with the animal control officer requesting ID. I again refused. The officer stated menacingly, "That's okay, we'll go another way." and left my property. They chatted with the animal control officer for a bit, then left. The animal control officer is still outside my house and stuck a yellow paper on the chair in my front yard as well as my door. I'm being TP'd by Plano Animal Control. On hearsay alone, they want to take my property.
Mar 10
Looks like my evening will be spent learning pet laws in Texas/Plano...
Mar 10
I think what is most telling is that I was standing next to the dogs when this all occurred, and yelled at them to stop barking and sit. The delivery person didn't stop running, delivered the package, then ran back to the truck and left. If I just got bit by someone's dog, or even scratched, I'd stop and ask some questions and let them know. I even apologized to the person for their barking then went back to clearing leaves from the yard. The worst part is this now fucks up the rest of my week, and Le and I's vacation to San Antonio the following week.

Mar 11
Animal control director just called. Stated people usually comply, so they don't have to get a warrant or court order. In 13 years on the job, he's never had to get one. Well, today's your baptism sir. He quoted me the law which states:
"(f)City enforcement agents are authorized to seek a warrant or order from a court of competent jurisdiction to enforce this chapter, pursuant to all applicable local, state, and federal laws.
(g)City enforcement agents shall have the power to search, seize and impound an animal with a warrant or court order under one (1) or more of the following conditions:"
I said, so there. He said, it says we "have the power, not that we have to" No sir, it says you have the power to do so WITH A WARRANT or COURT ORDER" implying that without such, you have no power. Forget that the conditions following haven't been met either. So good luck with that warrant.

Mar 11
According to Animal Control Director Jamey Cantrell, if someone breaks into your home and your dog bites them, you have to submit the animal for quarantine. Hmm. I don't see that in any statute I can find on the matter.

Mar 11
Animal control is back at the door. Left the exact same note as yesterday stating to contact Animal Control within 24 hours, but this time with the following message scribbled in the corner: "Can receive notices to appear each day until your dog is quarantined." Yeah? Appear where? Just because you write it on a slip of paper doesn't make it so. Bring me a warrant, or an order signed by a judge who accepted your colloquial interpretation of the facts, and I will gladly turn over my animal to quarantine. Hell, just show me one shred of evidence that my dog broke the skin of any living thing, or even a sworn statement by someone stating such and I will turn over my animal for quarantine. Nobody has asked to see vaccination records, or to even see the animal. They just want me to hop on the revenue train and ride it into their station. Clearly they are not concerned with public health.

Mar 12
Third day, and more scribble. Today they attempted to interview my neighbor as part of an investigation. My neighbor declined to cooperate. I guess the alleged body camera footage of me confessing was insufficient probable cause for the judge. Bonus: I noticed the AC officer from yesterday, and the one today did not have body cameras. The one today, was the same officer who made the first contact.

Mar 13
Day 4. Used a lot of tape on this one, must be really important.  She also stood outside for almost 3 minutes knocking loudly. Maybe she was trying to rile the dogs. She didn't, they're pretty well trained.

Mar 15
On Friday night, I called AC and left a message advising them that in Texas, only an officer of the court can issue a "Notice to Appear" and that it MUST have certain information. I then advised Texas Penal Code 37.11 subsection (a) part 2 makes each scribble from their officers a separate 3rd degree felony. "(2) knowingly purports to exercise, without legal authority, any function of a public servant or of a public office, including that of a judge and court." I advised them that AC officers are non-commissioned and do not enjoy Qualified Immunity. I then provided the relevant Federal RICO Act statutes relating to ongoing, and continued felonious acts intended to coerce. Yesterday and todays' Notice to Contact do not contain any embellishment and they've employed the buddy system where 2 officers deliver the tag to my door. I think they're learning.

Mar 17
Plano is so out of control. Police refuse to trespass Animal Control even though they have no exemption from trespass laws. The Sheriffs Dept. as well as Plano, PD will not enforce laws. I was actually told, "Their procedure is..." I don't care what their procedure is, I care about the law. Procedures haven't been passed or vetted. You are LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS not Animal Control Procedure Enforcement. Police don't know the law, because they aren't LEO's, they enforce the will of those in power in spite of the law. What law does an Animal Control officer have to violate before they'll enforce the law instead of telling me I need to get an attorney?

Mar 17
Animal Control told me today, while standing squarely on my property, that it was PUBLIC PROPERTY. I pointed to the public easement and advised him that's public, this is private. He refused to leave 5 times. I told him I felt threatened by his refusal to vacate my property. Only then did he leave, and go around to my garage. So I guess there are no property rights in Texas.

Mar 17
Before I stood up to Animal Control, I crunched the probabilities in my head and did the associated math. (Potential fines, legal fees, time in a cell, etc.) My calculation came up with a ceiling of $15,000 in cash and maybe a couple weeks in a Plano jail cell as the worse case scenario. The more probable scenario capped at $500 in cash, and $10,000 in time and irritation. I then discussed it with Le. We agreed we could weather such a storm and she gave her blessing for me to be me. Although the reality has been $0 in fines/legal fees, no time in jail and maybe just a few grand in time and irritation, it has taught me some valuable lessons. However, and more importantly, it has left me in awe of those who have sacrificed so much more, against significantly worse odds, greater injustice, with zero support and their very existence on the line and made the decision to stand up simply because it was the right thing to do.

Mar 19
AC just made another visit today. Last one should be tomorrow. Yesterday, they were in and out before I noticed them. I saw the notice on the window of the front door, and went out back to see if they taped one over my garage door security device. As the garage door was coming up, I saw them driving away and indeed there was another notice covering the garage door security device. Last night's call was to let them know that covering a peep hole, taping over a lock, or otherwise hindering or disabling either is yet another criminal offense. Ya know, criminals will put tape over your peephole, or on your lock or block your keypad so they have time to rob your in a transitional space. (I have a beveled glass door, where only certain parts allow you to see through. Which classifies the window portion as the peephole or other security measure.) I guess they're listening, because they took the time to put the notice on the door above the opening mechanism and not just slap it on the window where they have been. And it couldn't have been easy with the sprinklers on. They didn't leave one out back at all, though they did drive by all slow and menacingly. I smiled and waved them by as I cleaned a rug with a nigh pressure washer. Your move AC. Ya got one day left, let's finish big.

Mar 20
AC didn't show up today. Which seemed odd at first, because today is day 10, but then it made sense because why would I have to call them tonight? Possibly not related, but I also received a notification from Nationwide notifying me that they failed to notify me at last renewal that a dog exclusion was added to my policy, and that the company will enforce that exclusion 30 days after the date of this important notice.

Apr 20
My Animal Control (AC) saga continues. Today I received a summons to appear in Plano municipal court to answer 4 charges made by AC regarding violations of municipal ordinances: 2 counts each of Failure to vaccinate, and failure to register an animal. I read the ordinances. Seems I have to own animals to be in violation. Good thing I don't own any.

May 8
Hired an attorney today to deal with my Animal Control issue. He's going to file for discovery, but he's pretty sure the case will be dismissed given AC's poor handling of it. He said if they had the Prime driver, they would have enforced the quarantine, but they didn't, so they're coming after me for this other thing. Problem: Without the Prime driver, the rest is fruit of the poison tree. Then there's the issue of the dogs not being common property, and some other stuff. He's pretty sure I won't do any time. 🙂

Sep 2
I'm due to "appear" in court this morning on the Animal Control mess. It's just a pre-trial, but I'm required to appear via Zoom. I was speaking with my attorney and asked how the court could require me to appear via Zoom. What if I didn't own a computer? Or a webcam? Or if I didn't have internet? I can't actually appear at the courthouse because it's closed, and there's no law requiring me to have remote technology. (Yes, these are the questions I have @ $350/hour) Turns out, the governor of Texas (Republican) has suspended constitutional protections via executive orders. Yes, read that again. It's the 3rd time in US history. The other 2 were the Civil War, and World War II. I had no idea 1 man, at the state level, could simply decide you no longer receive constitutional protections, and poof, they're gone. If you get arrested right now, for ANYTHING, you can and will most likely languish in a cell indefinitely, damn the constitution and the spiral your life may take because of it.

Feb 3
Back in Zoom Court again this morning for the Animal Control charges. This thing started a year ago next month and there's still no end in sight. The wheels of justice do move slowly. My attorney says things look good. Witness statement from someone in the neighborhood said the Prime driver was wearing a full ski mask and was scared by him when he cut across their yard and could totally see why dogs might attack. Animal Control then conducted a lineup and the Prime Driver was absolutely certain dog #4 was the dog who bit him. Piper was dog #3 in the lineup. Yes, dog lineups. Your tax dollars at work. My attorney also had a test jury look over the discovery and although they thought I could conduct myself more politically, they thought I was justified in not turning over the animals. Seems I'm not alone in believing that an animal turned over to animal control is a death sentence.
Prosecutor made an offer where I get 80% off each fine + court costs. ($2K vs $6K) Rejected

Mar 16
Received notification yesterday regarding the AC saga. Seems I was found guilty in a default judgement and ordered to immediately pay more than $6,000 in fines, which I wasn't present to do so a warrant for my arrest was issued. Ended up being an issue with USPS. What a great country we live in, where a citizen can be put in a cage when the government makes the error.

“I want to tell you, I heard someone who is in very close contact with President Trump and the ins and outs of the White House under that administration.

Don’t listen to them. I have very good sources that tell me this is very good information. Is it 100%? I don’t know but it’s very good information. We all know that there was information that was declassified just a few days before President Trump left office. I know someone who is involved in declassifying that. This person is getting very tired of waiting on the DOJ to do something about it. And we’ll be hearing about it very, very soon. This is my opinion with that information that I have. I believe we’ll see resignations begin to take place and I think we can take back the majority in the House and the Senate before 2022.’

I think all of the democrats who pay for sex should resign, too.

I don't care at all about politicians paying for sex. We should be creating a safe and legal way for prostitutes to work their craft instead of pushing it to the black market where 17 year olds can easily just say they are 18 without verification.

Agreed!

I don't think calling on a politician to resign for being a POS should be partisan.  Cuomo can GTFO as can Gaetz.

i think that we should have high ethical standards for politicians and it would be good if voters punished politicians for things like paying for sex, but also that buying and selling sex should be legal.



and probably much more controversially than the above - rough ridin' someone who's not quite 18 is the same as rough ridin' someone who just turned 18 and while you obviously have to draw the line somewhere and someone who unwittingly did the former thinking he was doing the latter is no better or worse than someone who rigorously checks drivers' licenses and birth certificates of the younger women he pays to have sex with him.

It's not something that appeals to me personally, but I don't think paying for sex is an ethical issue.

I do somewhat agree with the second part.

Doing it through intermediaries is definitely both unethical and immoral. There is a big difference between freelancers and trafficking victims.

If Gaetz negotiated a price with these ladies and paid them directly you could say that’s between the two of them, but even then the age and power imbalance makes consent a difficult thing to take for granted.

Obviously the ethical issues are totally different if the middle man is required to report both the income from customers and wages to workers. The lack of any oversight is exactly why trafficking is a problem.

Kansas state Rep. Mark Samsel was arrested on charges of misdemeanor battery on Thursday after getting into a physical altercation with a student while substitute teaching in Wellsville.

Samsel, 36, was booked into the Franklin County Adult Detention Center after 3:30 p.m. Thursday. He has since been released on $1,000 bond, Sheriff Jeff Richards said.

Superintendent Ryan Bradbury said that Samsel will no longer be allowed to work for the district.

On Wednesday, Samsel, R-Wellsville, was substitute teaching at the Wellsville school district’s secondary school. Throughout the day, high school students began recording videos of the lawmaker talking about suicide, sex, masturbation, God and the Bible.

You think already radicalized members of the military or even those susceptible to believe this bullshit care about that qualifier?

Another thing to be worried about: people obtaining your Venmo transaction history. Money for gambling, drugs, Nickelback tickets, illegal labor, sex, you name it. And by "your" I don't mean "mine." Just people in general.
There is no way people are stupid enough to Venmo illegal gambling payments.

Yeah.  Really strange.  I have a hard time believing that any sandwich artist ever actually had a court enforced noncompete.

That said, throwing the baby out with the bathwater seems like it's going overboard a little -- I think there are plenty of situations where noncompetes make sense.

Fear and wonder--a powerful combination. I think Trump knows what America is. America is the mob. Conjure magic for them and they'll be distracted. Take away their freedom, and still they'll roar.

You’re only allowed to go to Washington if you’re going to lay siege to the White House, injure 50 plus secret service agents and burn entire city blocks because the police in a #blueanon stronghold acted inappropriately (again) and a Republican happened to be president (#blueanon/#blueanonGe)

Extra points if multiple #blueanon leaders chose to do nothing about the police over the span of years (as usual).

I am really interested in hearing a reasonable defense of a soldier who doesn't want to get vaxed.  I get that the majority of the people saying this are all Team someone who makes me uncomfortable, and whatever, but if there is an actual reasonable argument, I am all ears.

I have worked with a few vets and, from what I hear, they get all kinds of crap shot into them when they deploy.  Had an old boss tell me that when soldiers landed in Iraq, they had to take 6-7 shots/pills or  get kicked out.  He said they wouldn't even tell him what some of it was and he said he was told that some of it of it wasn't something our formal approval process had anything to do with at all.  He also noted that he is not ever allowed to give blood again because of some or all of whatever those drugs were. 

Fast forward to a world wide pandemic and this is now something soldiers shouldn't have to do?

I'm pretty convinced that it is just pure pandering in this senator's case. His handlers know that he can push both the "support-the-troops" and "soft anti-vax" buttons with one stroke by doing this.

Edit: I mean COVID vaccines are a whole lot safer and more thoroughly tested than a lot of stuff soldiers have to put in their bodies.

His hands aren't darker, they're black. Even if he didn't photoshop that picture, that ad is batshit crazy, his tweet to Bernice King is even worse. She beat his ass in the replies though.

He's definitely a piece of crap and worthy of being in this thread.

I saw a sign yesterday of a black man running for school board in Frisco, TX and it appears that his entire campaign is "Say No to CRT".  I don't know that he's a pos but it's definitely disappointing.

Anyone who criticize politicizes diversity equity and inclusion efforts, especially with something that's 100% based on a lie, is the textbook definition of a piece of crap.

The person who developed the strategy for Republicans has gone on record several times saying it's completely made up. I had the tweet from him as my signature, it's still up on his account. The only people who actually think teaching CRT to school aged children is an actual thing are people who literally only get informed from Facebook memes.

I actually don't mind that. It's a lot better than sending them back. If he were interested in being a human instead of a peacocking fuckstain, he should contact as many Sanctuary Cities as possible and just keep shipping them to the sanctuary cities, tell them first so the people of these cities can set up services like they do with refugees from other countries. In fact, the federal government should do it. If we're going to let people come and stay, lets do it the right way, this is a massive country. Hopefully those people were provided with food and water on those busses.

Sure, I'd be in favor of getting rid of government funded schools. Obviously, the only way it would be possible is for there to be some grants/credits given to low income households.  It's something that will never happen, though. There are way too many parents that want free daycare. Given this it's not something I really ever worry about in politics.

A distant second preferred option would be to give everyone an education credit that could be used at a government-run school, a private school or your homeschool. You could make testing a requirement if you wanted to receive the credits. I could see this happening, but I doubt it ever will.

Greg Abbott is not in favor of getting rid of government funded schools. He just wants to not have to pay for the kids of immigrants here illegally. Denying these kids an education is not something that gets me revved up. I'm only interested in the Supreme Court overturning the decision because I don't think it's something the federal government should be able to force states to do.

This is why I wasn't saying much when this was initially posted. I don't think Greg Abbott's motivations are the same as mine when it comes to this case. For me, I don't think the Equal Protection clause of the 14th Amendment applies here. I also generally believe in a much smaller and less powerful federal government. If I had the ability to do so, the federal government would be 1/10 to 1/5 the size it currently is. I view overturning this decision as a small step towards reducing the power of the federal government. I think Greg Abbott views it as a way to specifically deny children of immigrants here illegally a free education. That's not really my motivation, so I'm not going to be out there pumping Greg Abbott up on this. That's what I meant about not getting revved up about denying these kids an education.

In terms of education in general, if there was no universal government funded education, that doesn't mean there would be no education at all. Lots of families would still pay to send their kids to a school or they would stay home and educate their children themselves. I specifically stated that you would have to have some sort of support for low income households. I don't think you need subsidies to convince many upper middle class and middle class families to educate their children.

You also don't need eight hours a day to educate kids. However, actually educating kids is not the primary function that schools serve for many parents. Their view of the primary function of schools, whether they want to admit it or not, is to provide daycare for their children. You saw this in the pandemic when so many parents were complaining about having to be at home with their kids and not being able to be at work. I also think it is demonstrated by how many poorly performing schools are tolerated in society. While the education might not be good at these schools, they are serving their daycare function, so we're not going to really do something about them.

If schools functioned 100% just to educate kids, I'd certainly be less opposed to government funding of them. I'd still be opposed, I imagine, but much less opposed. I just don't think we need to be providing free daycare to everyone in the country.

I feel like a great step for public schools would be if everything was done on a district level. Tax revenues and monetary contributions (or other donations) are given to the district and distributed from there, teachers and principals apply to the district and are given assignments from there. I think it’s kinda crazy there can be such disparity between public schools based on whether they’re in a rich or poor neighborhood.

Tax revenues and monetary contributions (or other donations) are given to the district and distributed from there, teachers and principals apply to the district and are given assignments from there. I think it’s kinda crazy there can be such disparity between public schools based on whether they’re in a rich or poor neighborhood.
You think that would improve schools that currently struggle? What on earth

Do I think they’d be better off if you more evenly distributed money and teachers that seem to get earmarked for wealthier districts? I don’t understand how that’s a serious question.

Justwin! Get in here!

What do you want me to say?

I just figured you would have an interesting opinion on getting rid of government schools

Sure, I'd be in favor of getting rid of government funded schools. Obviously, the only way it would be possible is for there to be some grants/credits given to low income households.  It's something that will never happen, though. There are way too many parents that want free daycare. Given this it's not something I really ever worry about in politics.

A distant second preferred option would be to give everyone an education credit that could be used at a government-run school, a private school or your homeschool. You could make testing a requirement if you wanted to receive the credits. I could see this happening, but I doubt it ever will.

Greg Abbott is not in favor of getting rid of government funded schools. He just wants to not have to pay for the kids of immigrants here illegally. Denying these kids an education is not something that gets me revved up. I'm only interested in the Supreme Court overturning the decision because I don't think it's something the federal government should be able to force states to do.

You seem like a generally smart guy, so I’m disappointed you don’t recognize this as a pure dog whistle. It makes zero economic sense to not educate children in your own community. Refusing to do so based on race is like tazing off your own nutsack a thousand times over.

This is why I wasn't saying much when this was initially posted. I don't think Greg Abbott's motivations are the same as mine when it comes to this case. For me, I don't think the Equal Protection clause of the 14th Amendment applies here. I also generally believe in a much smaller and less powerful federal government. If I had the ability to do so, the federal government would be 1/10 to 1/5 the size it currently is. I view overturning this decision as a small step towards reducing the power of the federal government. I think Greg Abbott views it as a way to specifically deny children of immigrants here illegally a free education. That's not really my motivation, so I'm not going to be out there pumping Greg Abbott up on this. That's what I meant about not getting revved up about denying these kids an education.

In terms of education in general, if there was no universal government funded education, that doesn't mean there would be no education at all. Lots of families would still pay to send their kids to a school or they would stay home and educate their children themselves. I specifically stated that you would have to have some sort of support for low income households. I don't think you need subsidies to convince many upper middle class and middle class families to educate their children.

You also don't need eight hours a day to educate kids. However, actually educating kids is not the primary function that schools serve for many parents. Their view of the primary function of schools, whether they want to admit it or not, is to provide daycare for their children. You saw this in the pandemic when so many parents were complaining about having to be at home with their kids and not being able to be at work. I also think it is demonstrated by how many poorly performing schools are tolerated in society. While the education might not be good at these schools, they are serving their daycare function, so we're not going to really do something about them.

If schools functioned 100% just to educate kids, I'd certainly be less opposed to government funding of them. I'd still be opposed, I imagine, but much less opposed. I just don't think we need to be providing free daycare to everyone in the country.

If the result is the same as what Abbott desires, I don't think your motivation really matters. Also your view on what you think of the state of education and using that to drive a flawed policy position is just as problematic as Abbott not wanting to educate undocumented children.

I don't want to speak for Rusty but I think his issue with your proposal, as read, still accounts for wild disparity in funding in close geographical areas and rewards things like white flight. What you propose is largely how schools are funded now, it's why suburban schools have buildings a decade old with big libraries and athletic facilities while city schools, five miles away, are incredibly old.

Another thing that people who purpose this model and the voucher model overlook is that these models are simply awful for rural districts.

I think for what you want to achieve, equality among schools, all tax revenues would need to be collected and distributed by the state. That way someone working in downtown Indianapolis and who spends all of their leisure time in Indianapolis but who sleeps in Zionsville doesn't get to rob the Indianapolis schools of tax revenue that they deserve.

Post by: catastrophe on May 07, 2022, 02:05:22 PM
Thanks for the explanation. I understand it would only be one step in the right direction, but I agree that distribution on the state level makes a lot of sense for the reasons you mention. I mean there’s a town within Dallas that I’m pretty sure exists only so rich people’s tax dollars don’t get diluted funding underprivileged schools, parks, police force, etc.

I mean, you're free to handwave away the 14th Amendment in your own mind, but the EPC definitely applies, here, unless you're arguing that children of illegal immigrants are not "people" residing in the United States. And national origin is a suspect classification subject to strict scrutiny. Mind you, this was NOT a law about immigration, in which case the federal (but not state) government has nearly unfettered discretion under the Constitution. This is a punitive law targeting the right of children to receive an education based on their national origin.

Let's be clear: that goal is terrible.

His constituency fetishize cops and military because: 1. they are told to in a crap load of messaging everywhere from the NFL to a crap load of stupid truck stickers you see on half the vehicles in our world, 2. they are careers that are easy to get into and that provide what they see as a path to respect, power, or authority without actually having to accomplish something difficult that would allow you to earn those things, and 3. they get to play with all the "eff yeah" equipment they like to mentally jerk off to(larping as if you are GI Joe).

Greg draws on that to make his voters want to trust him without consciously making that choice.

Wow. Good post

Now as she is discovering, much like the good Dr Frankenstein, you can't control the monster forever. The Monster will be in the crowd that you created. She can find sympathy in the dictionary but not from me. They were warned that if you continue to lie to these people there would be a price to pay.

Sure is, and was more than willing to go along with all the crazy crap. I'm a Democrat, very proud of that, and I know she's asking for support from Wyoming Democrats...But I would never support her. She bought tickets to the train she can ride it. I'll be honest too here, I think she thought the GOP would grow a spine after the Insurrection on January 6th and she wanted to be first. She miscalculated and if she knew what she knew now she would be embracing the Big Lie that 2020 was stolen fully.

Sorry, should have said more cheap labor from prison. Make sodomy illegal, you get more prisoners. Gives more government cheese to your donors in the prison industry and also gives them more free labor to exploit.

Another benefit would be that spouses can collect social security after you die. So it saves the government money if you can't have a spouse or adopt children.

The willingness to accept outrageous claims, in the face of evidence otherwise, just to be part of an in group. It’s sad as eff. I feel sorry for most GOP’ers. Not the leaders.

The right has always told us that drug use (except in the case of Rush Limbaugh's opioid addiction) is just a symptom of low moral character (ie not being smart enough to just-say-no). Very weird to be so concerned about this all of a sudden.

You are not legally accidentally getting it.  so the sudden kowtowing to heroin users is sort of odd.

Several years back I saw a documentary on immigrants working road construction jobs.  Employers were offering $20.00 an hour to start and they said if it weren't for the hard-working Mexicans taking these jobs they would not be able to complete their projects on time.  They said zero Americans would even apply for these jobs.

Unfortunately the SteveDave's of the world are some the easiest to manipulate and propagandize.

Questioning a vax that doesn't keep you from actually getting or spreading the disease is considered to be anti-vax by derps like SteveDave (anecdotally, the 4th chip is now 0 for 5 in my family).  Simple brains like SteveDave now throw around Anti-Vax like people who question the efficacy of the Covid Vaccine are against all vax's.  Easily manipulated people like Steve Dave never take a moment to ask why our CDC changed the definition of a vaccine in the middle of the night. 

Being against a stupid war in Ukraine, that was almost exclusively driven by U.S./NATO/EU meddling in the Ukraine, something that the United States has never and will never allow to occur on its borders is considered to be Pro-Putin.

Letting a little mutt like Zelensky stand up in the people's house and invoke FDR and ask for a blank check for his uber corrupt country is also Pro-Putin according to the easily propagandized and simple brained people like SteveDave

“Vax card bars” are great because they’re bars that only allow medium-to-great people in them, and at which you’re pretty unlikely to get covid, as bars go.

But short of that, one can still do the things we were all wisened up to do even before ‘chips - mask indoors, especially in crowded places (and def where the unchip’d are allowed), limit exposure to crowds, keep around good people who are chip’d and would test and be cautious rather than exposing you, maintain good hygiene, etc.

https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.12.17.22283625v1.full.pdf

Note, they then go to the age old fall back position, "more study is needed"

Therefore, those who received fewer than 3 doses (>45% of individuals in the study) were not those ineligible to receive the vaccine, but those who chose not to follow the CDC’s recommendations on remaining updated with COVID-19 vaccination, and one could reasonably expect these individuals to have been more likely to have exhibited higher risk-taking behavior. Despite this, their risk of acquiring COVID-19 was lower than those who received larger number of prior vaccine doses.

You think the ‘chips are the failing part of this anecdote?

So by living their lives, they failed?  Is that what you're saying?

We all can't hide out in vax card bars, Trim





“Vax card bars” are great because they’re bars that only allow medium-to-great people in them, and at which you’re pretty unlikely to get covid, as bars go.

But short of that, one can still do the things we were all wisened up to do even before ‘chips - mask indoors, especially in crowded places (and def where the unchip’d are allowed), limit exposure to crowds, keep around good people who are chip’d and would test and be cautious rather than exposing you, maintain good hygiene, etc.

Just found out that when the Californian creator of LibsOfTikTok was doxxed and being violently threatened by the left, Desantis's team reached out to her to tell her that she and her family could come stay at a guest house at the Governor's Mansion for as long as she liked.

This is mostly for those who scream that he is "establishment"; simply because Trump has attacked him and soccer moms and other moderates might support him. But also figured that the rational Desantis supporters would like this. The dude is just nails, all around.

Not that you care, but it’s so extremely easy to spot points like this as disingenuous identity politics. First of all, we still know incredibly little about what is actually going on with that I jury. Second, the rise in COVID vaccines has also correlated with…the rise in COVID cases, which are known to present a risk of myocarditis.

There’s some dog whistley aspects for sure, but I think a lot of it boils down to just plain ignorance about institutional problems.

MAGAs think you can just decide not to be poor and if you work hard enough you can be rich. So when MAGAs struggle themselves to make a comfortable living, they can only make sense of it by blaming someone else for conspiring against their happiness like the president, immigrants, other people getting any kind of help, etc.

You're right, "they hate poor people" is far too cavalier, to the point of being inaccurate. They know it's good policy to demonize the poor is a much better approach.

KK, sys is 100% right that despite their policies being very anti poor people and they continue to find new and inventive ways to exploit poor people, if you don't consider the feelings of policy makers and those who support them, they're very unlikely to change course and be more amenable to change. I learned this about race, if you don't call racist things racist people are much more likely to not do racist things and push racist policies.

In Mississippi, they took $1 million from the block grants meant to benefit poor families to pay Brett Farve to not give speeches and took even more to build a volleyball arena for his daughter.



Now that is an extreme example and may well end up being prosecutable fraud, but in tons of states they take money from welfare to do all kind of things that don’t feed poor kids.

It’s almost worse when they try to dress things up under the guise of being reasonable like when not just Sam Brownback, but multiple states, used money for private companies to give presentations on marriage using money to help poor people provide for their families. No extra money, money for this instead of for lunches or groceries or material support for poor families. It is a choice.

Update here. They removed all of these provisions from the bill and instead want to ban the ability to buy soda and candy with SNAP. Two things worth noting here. First, I believe there are other states, like Kansas, that don't allow SNAP recipients to buy candy and soda with SNAP. Second, doing any of this publicly, particularly on the floor of the state house and/or senate is completely performative given any changes to SNAP, by any state, has to be given a waiver from the federal government before they can be made.

If you insist on things like public education, there are better ways to help provide a way for large numbers of kids to be educated then having schools being run for the government.

Also, who's to say Florida's voters are not holding Florida's elected officials accountable?

The point is the ones that are making tons of money killing Americans are our beloved big American corporations, not a bunch of Mexicans.  The government finally did something about it a few years back and now that they know they can get prosecuted are very careful about peddling Fent and opiates.  Of course no one is going to blame them, especially magas.  You just don't realize how racist you are.

The pretty obvious problem here is a family that may have someone who has a decent job, then loses that job. Also the threshold is insanely low.

Why do these Iowa legislators want to punish people for saving money? I would generally think this group would prefer people to not blow all of their income, but here they are incentivizing people to not save.

What's wrong with that?

The school choice bills are money grabs for rich people.  If you can't afford private schools they aren't helping.

School choice exists in the form of parochial school, home schools, co-op schools or private.

taking away money from already strapped districts isn't going to open a bunch of new schools.

While I tend to look at many things as money grabs for rich people, like forever wars for example.  The only people getting rich are the defense contractors and whatever faction we decide to back, at least their leaders anyway, I digress.

Not everything is a "money grab for rich people". 

I didn't say there's anything wrong with going to private schools.   Having dealt with numerous school systems across 8 states that range from the wealthiest of the wealthy suburban schools and private schools, to school systems in some of the poorest counties in these United States.  I feel that I can say with a relative degree of certainty, that there's some school systems that they can throw limitless supplies of money at, and under their current structure, they're not going to get any better.

This is terrible, but not even close to the worst example of how our welfare state (if you can even call it that) abuses people. The Medicaid rules are completely insane. Did you get some long term care? Ok, now we will take your house and any assets to recoup expenses. Just wild, and they recoup like half a percent of the total cost of Medicaid. Completely wild.

We also have states like Kansas and Mississippi that have continuously refused to accept the federal Medicaid expansion dollars and rural hospitals are failing left and right. I would call it a completely irresponsible stewardship of public goods, but really it is just purposeful cruelty.

I can’t post in the school shootings thread any more because it is too far gone, but the way this country systematically abuses the most vulnerable and feels zero obligation to any other human is really demoralizing.

The entire point of religious conservatives is 1) to regulate non-religious people into their beliefs, and 2) protect against non-religious people banning their beliefs (imo this is because they assume everyone else is like them and wants to ban the competition)

None of that has a small government basis.

That i'm in favor of small government all the time.  I'm definitely not a republican on every issue, but i tend to side with them on some of the issues i care about most (which, in some cases, happen to be issues involving a lot of govt overreach! (e.g. abortion)).  There's plenty of big issues I'm not in lockstep with the republican platform on though (e.g. affirmative action, welfare state in general, etc.).

I acknowledge the social media thing is a hugely complicated endeavor, but I think it's a good idea to require parental permission for kids to be on facebook/IG/tiktok, etc. How do you apply it?  I don't know, but generally speaking I think social media is horrible for people. Bad far outweighs the good, imo. So any effort to curb/slow it is almost certainly something i'm in favor of regardless of who proposes it.   If I were ruler of the world we'd turn "Social Media" off.

The answer would be requiring that certain security measures be put in place to avoid underage use. You can certainly determine whether those protocols are actually used or not. I don’t think it’s much of a stretch to compare social media use to something like smoking (we don’t think it’s good for your health but go ahead if you’re of legal age to decide for yourself).

Making it incumbent upon all “social media” companies to discern the true age of their users is lazy legislating and, like MIR said, likely unenforceable.

I might need to start an Iowa politics thread. I keep trying to give these psychopaths the benefit of the doubt in thinking they're just pushing a larger conservative agenda but they're completely off the rails.

Look at this crap  :ROFL:
https://twitter.com/Rushthewriter/status/1641444041706569730
I'm OK with prohibiting it for minors without parental approval.  Can of worms on how you get parental approval, but, generally speaking, I think it's probably a good idea (if a bit idealistic) to keep young kids off social media.

Are y'all the party of small government or not? My God.
Sometimes you assign me points of view that I don't think are very fair or accurate.

It’s the 2023 version of video games will rot our kids brains

Social media? I think there's plenty of evidence that it's not particularly good for anyone.

There is a ton of research that suggests exactly how tangibly this is affecting our youths (and old people), but I wonder about the difficulty in defining "social media," as this blog site would generally be considered "social media." As you know, you can't just pass a law that says, "Facebook must cease operations."
Yeah, that's the problem.  There may not be any way to properly define it, but I do think it's a problem worth thinking about.

Sir, you're a self professed republican, no?
On some stuff, yeah.

So you're a republican who thinks it's good policy to require social media companies, whatever that means, to ensure that parents get permission to use their apps. That's not at all small government, that's government overreach to something that's completely unenforceable. What point of view am I assigning that's unfair?
That i'm in favor of small government all the time.  I'm definitely not a republican on every issue, but i tend to side with them on some of the issues i care about most (which, in some cases, happen to be issues involving a lot of govt overreach! (e.g. abortion)).  There's plenty of big issues I'm not in lockstep with the republican platform on though (e.g. affirmative action, welfare state in general, etc.).

I acknowledge the social media thing is a hugely complicated endeavor, but I think it's a good idea to require parental permission for kids to be on facebook/IG/tiktok, etc. How do you apply it?  I don't know, but generally speaking I think social media is horrible for people. Bad far outweighs the good, imo. So any effort to curb/slow it is almost certainly something i'm in favor of regardless of who proposes it.   If I were ruler of the world we'd turn "Social Media" off.

Then I sincerely apologize dlew.

I am frequently frustrated with social media but I disagree with you that it largely doesn't serve a greater good. Sure there are bad actors but most people who use social media aren't bad actors and there has been more good than harm that has developed from us having more access to each other.

The current hysteria over social media is no different than other media sources when they were new. Parents ultimately have ultimate control as to what and how much social media their children use, just as they did with video games, movies, television, music, and radio usage before.

I think social media has caused more harm than good. It's nice to have a convenient way to share photos with people, but without social media, we probably would have been able to get most of the population vaccinated for COVID, no QAnon, no flat earthers, etc. Hell, we might not have even had a candidate Trump, let alone president Trump.

Yep. I think my top reasons for having disdain for social media:

1. Incredibly efficient at spreading misinformation.
2. Reinforces (if not creates) echo chambers that give people the false sense that their particular world view is by far the most prevalent and the others are simply outliers.
3. For kids in particular it creates a false sense of reality where the user feels like their everyday life is way more difficult and mundane than all of their peers.

Plenty of positives, but I wouldn't call it a net benefit by any stretch of the imagination.

Generally speaking, I think we'd hate each other a lot less.  It's absolutely poisoned the country politically imo.  To say nothing of the specific issues kids face with it.

There are some things it's great for, but I think we'd be better on the whole if we could turn it off.  Total fantasy, of course.  Can't put that toothpaste back in the bottle.  But if we can at least keep more kids off of it longer, I think everyone would be better off.

Until a few months back the founding and leadership of the predominant social media platforms and the dominant web search engine and related eco-system of products were the exclusive domain of #blueanon icons.

Thanks to those #blueanon icons for creating what #blueanon rank and file is now calling a cauldron of hate (they wouldn't be saying that if those platforms were the exclusive domain of #blueanon lunacy and insane conspiracy theories)

A series platforms where #blueanon thought leaders were and are mostly still allowed to run amuck day after day after day. 

While #blueanon political leaders were and are the most prolific in attempting to shut down anything they didn't like on social media.   :thumbsup: 

Even going so far as enlisting foreign based NGO's with direct ties to foreign governments and foreign and domestic military's and intelligence agencies to "assist" in shutting down what they declared to be "disinformation" (as what was well documented on this blog when DHS tried to create their Ministry of Disinformation)  :thumbsup:

I hope the Supreme Court gets flooded with appeals of criminals seeking to overturn their convictions because, just like Justice Thomas, they asked their friends about it 25 years ago and they said it was legal.

I agree with this, and I know cat will also agree that when family members of our then VPOTUS and now our POTUS are engaged in financial activities that generate tens if not hundreds of Suspicious Activity Reports as submitted by entities like JP Morgan - Chase and other major banks to our Department of Treasury, that should be investigated as well.  Particularly since many of these reports involved highly corrupt countries like Ukraine, highly corrupt companies like Burisma Holdings, and companies located in countries that are our geo-strategic advisaries, where the government controls everything.

I missed where he stated it was incredibly important that they be allowed to marry someone of like age only.  Is that a different clip? Because he seems to be saying that it should be legal for a 12 year old girl to get pregnant and marry the father.  His example just happened to include small children who are in 6th grad marrying

I never said he was a pedo but he sure as hell is a creepy degenerate

This elected official is the same guy who screams that discussing sexual identities in school somehow "sexualizes" kids but he will publiclly fight for the right of these children to have sex, become pregnant and get married? 

What on earth?  You are right that is very similar to a dax position

He voted to not outlaw allowing 12 year olds to be married to adults if the parents consented. I’m convinced you missed this part inadvertently.

“I think they look at us as this petri dish where they can really push all their agenda and theories,” said Joe Dohrn, a Woodland Park father who described himself as a staunch Republican and “very capitalistic.” “They clearly are willing to sacrifice the public school and to put students presently in the public school through years of disarray to drive home their ideological beliefs. It’s a travesty.”

Quote
At the first board meeting in January with Witt as superintendent, the board voted to adopt the American Birthright social studies curriculum standard. No social studies teachers had been consulted prior to the vote, according to three current employees and an administrator who asked to speak anonymously to protect their employment.

American Birthright materials emphasize patriotism, argue that the federal government should have no authority over public schools and say teachers should not encourage civic engagement, such as registering to vote or petitioning local lawmakers on issues students care about.


“It is terribly important to be a disengaged citizen, and indeed, a disengaged student,” said David Randall, research director at the National Association of Scholars, a conservative organization that created the standards last year.

Randall said American Birthright was modeled off state standards in Massachusetts and Florida. The group received input from dozens of right-wing groups and activists, including the Claremont Institute, the Family Research Council and Moms for Liberty. Randall sees it as a bipartisan alternative to coursework that he described as hijacked by liberal concepts. Critics, though, say it’s biased toward the right — for example, it includes Bill Clinton’s impeachment but not Donald Trump’s.

The Colorado State Board of Education rejected American Birthright in October. The National Council for the Social Studies, a professional trade group for educators, issued a rare warning against using it.

Quote
Even though it’s only been playing in theaters for 24 hours, The Little Mermaid has already required some outside assistance to ensure that it doesn’t fall victim to the review-bombing campaign everybody knew was coming.

IMDb has actively altered its metrics after almost 50 percent of all votes cast for the live-action Disney remake decreed that it was only worth a 1/10 rating, which seems awfully suspicious and entirely transparent when being bottom of the barrel accrued three times as many votes as any other number from two through to a perfect 10.

However, as if we needed any more proof to settle the matter, the latest opening weekend numbers for The Little Mermaid have unequivocally proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that trolls and review-bombers do not get outside very much. It’s all well and good to sit behind a keyboard and say you hate something, but the fact director Rob Marshall’s family-friendly blockbuster is heading for a Memorial Day frame that could reach as high as $130 million indicates that it’s everybody else putting their money where their mouths are.

Not only that, but it additionally makes it patently clear that a large majority of the aforementioned trolls haven’t even bothered to check out the film for themselves, not that it takes a genius to figure that out, either. Bad movies make money all the time, but based on the general consensus, it’s hard to say that The Little Mermaid falls into that camp unless you’re one of the few determined to tear it down a peg or two.

Not saying any of that is right or wrong, but in the general cultural dialogue, it seems like the right has mostly been the ones carrying the “parental rights!” banner on most things.  So Stone’s comment struck me as odd.

Either I had a stroke or you did because I don't understand this at all. How is not requiring teachers to tell a parent if their kid wants to identify as another gender a restriction of parents rights? There's no law mandating teachers to not tell. How does not allowing some psycho to get a book removed from a library because it might hurt their feelings a restriction of parental rights? Again, there's no law requiring all students to check out books from the library about race or gender?

These are only parental rights issues if one is of the belief that conservatives literally don't have the capability to mind their own rough ridin' business. My child checking out Uncle Tom's Cabin from the library literally has nothing to do with anyone who doesn't want to read that book.

These bills don't give any conservative parents any rights they didn't have before, all they do is make it harder for LTGBQ kids to feel like they aren't alone in their experiences.

The right has been passing laws banning parents and physicians from administering gender affirming care, which seems like more of an attack on parental rights than anything the left has proposed or passed. I will say those bans are definitely wrong.

The "Don't say gay" bill and book bans aren't about parental rights because parents could already opt out of public schools and not go to libraries. Those items are purely about demonizing LGBT people.

I think you're confusing the "don't say gay" bill with attempts to require teachers to disclose to parents if a student comes out to them as gay or transgender. I'm a little more sympathetic to the right's position on this, but I think it depends on the situation. I know trans kids who are comfortable with one set of pronouns about their friends, but might use different ones around their parents because their parents aren't as supportive or understanding. At worst, a teacher outing a student at home could put the student in danger. At best, disclosing something like gender dysphoria to parents would lead to the parents helping the child get the care they need.

I get you don’t agree with them (I don’t either) but saying “I’m going to teach your child xyz whether you like it or not” is a parental rights issue. “I’m not going to tell you things about your child that you want to know” also implicates parental rights.  “Your child must be vaccinated to do xyz.” Same deal.

These things also implicate a host of other issues (education/general interest/public health/child privacy rights, etc).  It also bears pointing out that “parental rights” take a back seat in like a ton of different situations (see child protection laws!).

Are you intentionally being obtuse? Literally education is all about "teaching your child xyz whether you like it or not," and that's true for public and private school. Every state in America has educational standards, things that have to be taught, this is the case even if you home school. Education in America isn't something that individual parents get to dictate, for obvious reasons. The only subjects under attack are ones that could possibly involve LTGBQ or race. These bills that state you can't discuss or teach gender before x grade is also a sham, because they're still discussing gender, unless they're also removing books that have any cisgender mentions, which we know isn't happening.

If you want to make this a parental rights issue then the proposed laws need to be giving the parents the ability to home school without state standards instead of targeting two subsets of a potential subjects and nothing else.

Lol I missed that because I didn't think it was possible to both recognize the right wants to ban gender affirming care but also think it's the side really in favor of parental rights.

And I mentioned the banning of gender affirming care for youth as taking away parental rights, do you not see it that way?
of course it does. That’s why I asked LSOC if that’s what he was talking about in my original response.
Lol I missed that because I didn't think it was possible to both recognize the right wants to ban gender affirming care but also think it's the side really in favor of parental rights.

I'd add drag bans as another example of the right taking away parental rights if you want one that's specifically about attacking LGBT people.
Sure. Drag Bans is another good one.  Honestly I don’t really want anything. I was literally just asking what LSOC was referring to because right wing media stakes their flag on “parental rights” so often in the broader cultural conversation.

It seems like the left is mostly on the side of restricting parent rights, but I may be forgetting something.

What does this refer to?
What is what referring to?  Left seems like they were on kids’/teachers’ side with the don’t say gay (requiring teachers to tell parents kids’ sexuality/gender stuff), school curricula, books, etc.

Not saying any of that is right or wrong, but in the general cultural dialogue, it seems like the right has mostly been the ones carrying the “parental rights!” banner on most things.  So Stone’s comment struck me as odd.

Either I had a stroke or you did because I don't understand this at all. How is not requiring teachers to tell a parent if their kid wants to identify as another gender a restriction of parents rights? There's no law mandating teachers to not tell. How does not allowing some psycho to get a book removed from a library because it might hurt their feelings a restriction of parental rights? Again, there's no law requiring all students to check out books from the library about race or gender?

These are only parental rights issues if one is of the belief that conservatives literally don't have the capability to mind their own rough ridin' business. My child checking out Uncle Tom's Cabin from the library literally has nothing to do with anyone who doesn't want to read that book.

These bills don't give any conservative parents any rights they didn't have before, all they do is make it harder for LTGBQ kids to feel like they aren't alone in their experiences.

I get you don’t agree with them (I don’t either) but saying “I’m going to teach your child xyz whether you like it or not” is a parental rights issue. “I’m not going to tell you things about your child that you want to know” also implicates parental rights.  “Your child must be vaccinated to do xyz.” Same deal.

These things also implicate a host of other issues (education/general interest/public health/child privacy rights, etc).  It also bears pointing out that “parental rights” take a back seat in like a ton of different situations (see child protection laws!). But in the cultural debate on these issues the right has been the one waving the “parental rights” - which is why LSOC’s comment threw me off.  I didn’t know what else he was referring to.

To the extent having a curriculum is a parents rights issue, it’s really hard to determine whether the left or right are to blame.

I wouldn't want curricula to be a parents' rights issue, because what that really means is it's a few whack job mouthbreathers making the decision in large swaths of the country. Go home school your Mongoloid Jr. and let everyone else's kids receive a quality education that allows them to ask questions and challenge preconceptions.

Are you intentionally being obtuse? Literally education is all about "teaching your child xyz whether you like it or not," and that's true for public and private school. Every state in America has educational standards, things that have to be taught, this is the case even if you home school. Education in America isn't something that individual parents get to dictate, for obvious reasons. The only subjects under attack are ones that could possibly involve LTGBQ or race. These bills that state you can't discuss or teach gender before x grade is also a sham, because they're still discussing gender, unless they're also removing books that have any cisgender mentions, which we know isn't happening.

If you want to make this a parental rights issue then the proposed laws need to be giving the parents the ability to home school without state standards instead of targeting two subsets of a potential subjects and nothing else.

I'm not sure you're familiar with homeschooling laws in all states. What am I required to teach my kids in Kansas when they are homeschooled?

I'd prefer not, tbh. But I might be fine with it if the same Constitutional principles that apply to other governmental action (14th Amendment, in particular) applied to their curricula decisions. Let education professionals do their jobs.

https://www.ksde.org/portals/0/ecsets/factsheets/factsheet-homeschool.pdf

In what way was I not polite? My point was primarily that if you know the homeschooling laws in your state, there is a very good chance that you don't know the laws in other states.

You are also required to assess in Kansas. This does not mean taking standardized tests, only that the students are being assessed on what they are supposed to be learning.

Another factoid for education in Kansas is that a kid is not required to attend school (or be homeschooled) until his/her 7th birthday.

In terms of going to college, a GED is not necessarily required. A homeschooled student is effectively going to be presenting a diploma from an unaccredited school in Kansas (that's what all homeschools are). You will need to be able to convince whoever (or whatever college) that this diploma is worth something. You can do that with a GED perhaps. It's also possible to present the work a student did as evidence of how they were educated. I also imagine that if you scored a pretty highly on the ACT or SAT, that would be convincing as well.

Maybe assessment wasn't the best choice of word. You just need to test your students periodically when homeschooling. I've always just taken this to mean giving them an exam. The requirements for homeschooling in Kansas are listed here:

https://hslda.org/post/how-to-comply-with-kansas-homeschool-law.

In terms of oversight, there is basically none in my experience. We've been homeschooling for nine years and have never dealt with anyone from the state. If we were doing something crazy or not teaching our kids anything, maybe someone would report it and we would get a visit.

With the general public yeah, with these pols, no. If Target had family ownership that donated to republicans like walmart does, those AGs wouldn't say crap, despite the outcry, it's also why they haven't said crap about inbev, or any other retailer who sells pride crap. Now they can use target to pander to their dipshit bigot constituents.

ah, sorry. i didn't notice that you were drawing a distinction between the letter and other anti-corporate actions/speech by elected republicans.


although, i have to say, i don't really share the view that the letter is a notable escalation beyond other speech and threats of action by republican electeds or that there is a clear connection between donations to republican members of congress and the actions of republican attorneys general, many not even from the same states.

I don't think it's an escalation either, it's just a simple, easy cheap political trick only to score points from simple people. Three letter didn't even contain anything actionable, it was pure political nonsense.

Speaking of which

Are most attorney generals just terrible lawyers who know nothing about how the legal system works, or are they actually really good lawyers who get burnt out and decide to go scream about culture war bullshit instead?

They're politicians, most of them were formally prosecutors with strong political bend, either way. Their acumen as a practicing attorney is secondary given they rarely preside over any cases and they really don't have to if they never want or need to.

I understand there was a recent first amendment march in DC that got a little out of hand, but it was a first amendment march after all.

When a multi-generational #blueanon stronghold mismanages its cops (again) and then when those mismanaged cops (who weren't held accountable for years by #blueanon politicians) do something bad. #blueanon needs to band together (again and as usual) to burn down city block after city block, and attempt to storm the White House injuring over fifty secret service police in the process . . . and no one gets arrested. 

Besides, we all know a good SWAT'ing gets Team Locked and Loaded aka Team MAGA Blaster all horned up . . . applies only to people #blueanon hates (which is a crap ton of people).
