Besides, where are they getting all the money for this crap? Paying over 90 teachers more than $3000 extra to attend indoctrination seminars? Instituting costly school programs?

You got the sh part right three times.

@jolly Yup, not saying the rule was wrong or incorrect. No matter what the rule was, the judge would have said that it did not follow procedure to implement.

I do not see this as a win or loss for President Trump. It just is.

Oh, it's a Trump win.

The Trump legacy will hopefully be election reform. Things like this buttress that movement..

Biden: don’t come over. Seriously.

All the non-Americans on the forum are in complete agreement that the ridiculous Americans think too much about Trump. There is the chance that none of you are invested in American culture like Americans are. Trump was a massive part of our culture, and now the hypocrisy of the TDS sufferers, in the media and elswhere, deserves to be pointed out. Whether the non Americans find it tedious or not.

Gentlemen, I am not exactly the most PC member of this forum, but I think we are getting distracted from what this young lady is accomplishing? I wonder why women sometimes feel that their skills and knowledge are often overlooked because of their looks and relative attractiveness?

Evolution.

I do that, so that it can have a simple password I can give to visitors. The main WiFi has a secure password you never want to type.

@copper Thanks, Copper!

True

I don’t use it frequently. I mostly drink coffee these days. I’ll probably have her back into tea someday. I have a whole cabinet full of pu erh my wife gave me.

@horace said in Tell me, again, where "Democracy dies.":

I am aware of exactly zero anti-Trumpers who ever cared whether he was maliciously lied about. I am also aware of exactly zero anti-Trumpers who would admit to that fact. One must keep up appearances, after all. Their facade of virtue is totally fooling everybody, just ask them.

I'm what you would call an anti-Trumper, and I also think the media treated him unfairly. I actually think what the US media did was terrible. I've stopped listening to NPR, pretty much the only US media I could stomach, because they are horribly biased. In some ways they're worse than CNN because quite a few of them appear to honestly believe they're being objective.

The US media bias tended to have two effects - it cemented the people who didn't like Trump even more securely in that camp, and it also made his supporters rally around even more, even when he behaved very poorly, which he frequently did, so it was counter-productive in that regard. So, now the country is even more divided.

Trump's still an asshole, of course.

Yep, well put.

@lufins-dad that’s a good distance. Easy enough to get him for long weekends but not so close he brings his laundry home to you.

Agreed. Three hours was my undergrad-to-home distance, and it´s my distance to home now, too. Just perfect.

Congrats to Luke!

Wow, thats a nice looking place.

I think you’ll have more control with a circular saw, Brenda. Arms won’t get as tired either.

LOL, Jon. I'm scary enough with the electric hair trimmer. 😱

Me, too, Jodi. I love crosswords and many puzzles. I'll have to try it when I'm not tired. LOL

Kind of funny, the headline is:

"The Biden Federal Housing Administration is Now Guaranteeing Mortgages for Illegal Aliens with DACA Status"

But, the sentence in the article says:

"...illegal aliens whose illegal parents allegedly brought them stateside when they were children — will now be eligible for home loan applications thanks to a change in FHA policy that was brought about right before President Joe Biden took office."

While the headline is "technically" correct, it could have also been said

"President Trump administration changes FHA rules to Guarantee Mortages for Illegal Aliens with DACA status"
