An 8th grade test from 1912Funny one of the members of the board of education is J E Magruder. Got me curious if that was Jeb Magruder’s relative.
Doesn’t seem to be so although Jeb himself has a later-life connection to KY. He went to seminary after prison and ended up a Presbyterian minister in Lexington. hmmm…..

The Iran War (was Nuclear Program) threadSo Donald Trump is threatening NATO allies for not helping enough in a war they weren’t even consulted on, while Russia helps Iran target U.S. forces and gets waivers on oil sanctions.
Make that make sense

Beyond the antivaxx stuff MAHA is either banal or fakeBest comment, directed at Cassidy's complicity in this.
Too little, too late. Dude knew this and should've voted accordingly when he had the chance instead of trying to put the penis back on the raccoon.

We need a Venezuela threadI’ve never thought too much about the Trump crime family abusing the betting markets just because they’re too lightly traded. A few hundred k is a lot of money for a DoD mid level employee but not worth the Trump’s time. The big trades before presidential moves tend to be in financial or oil markets where you can make 100MM in a few minutes if your dad is President.
Also these trades are easy to investigate - everything is documented. So you know it’s someone with confidence that they won’t be subject to such investigations. That’s a small circle.

So who did the insider trading?
