Good. I hope it drives Trump even crazier.
On a side-note, can the networks refrain from showing Stormy Daniels in the most eye-popping photos where she’s busting out of her blouse? It kind of makes the story a touch less serious.
The antivaxxers are working on bringing back polio.
That’s an accurate description. I wish Josh would use that in his EdBlog instead of the following:
…and then pocketed the money and let the dog die.
“Let the dog die” has powerful emotional resonance, but it implies the dog would have lived if the owner had received the money. I don’t think we know that for sure, do we?
In many situations like this, pets are on the way out and there’s nothing you can do except ease their pain along the way. It’s despicable enough that the owner didn’t receive the money that was raised. I don’t think it’s necessary to claim that Santos killed the dog. It’s enough that the dog died without receiving any palliative care from the money raised.
But, do the related statutes have any teeth to them?
Or would he get away with paying fines?
If the Okie bill passes, and they refuse Federal funding (Who needs school breakfast or lunches anyway?) will they raise taxes to make up the difference?
I had Rubella at age 11 in 1964 when I flew with my family to visit my grandparents. It always makes me shudder when I think about it.
The Oklahoma State Superintendent of Public Instruction has been trying to corner the market on stupid, but I guess the supply is endless. He has been counting on the majority GOP legislature rubber stamping his agenda, but he is so hapless that he has been unable to write a coherent budget. The Q and A from the Education Committees show that the Repubs don’t think he knows what he’s doing. The question is whether they will still agree to his schemes.
I noticed that the OK State Senator didn’t include state universities.
I had polio as a toddler in 1954. I can attest that it was not fun then and the spinal difficulties i have now are a result.
Vaccines are for oublic health, not politics.
A resonance that “Aiding and abetting Russian aggression against the interests of america” for some reason simply doesn’t have, despite all but the youngest voters growing up During the Cold War watching movies from Manchurian Candidate to Red Dawn…
And will we have to provide 100% of the funding for special needs students from the budget? No word on that either.
Corporate-owned media clickbait! They can’t resist the catnip.
The “Make more stupid voters for the survival of the republican party” bill?
Yes…the article states that OK will need to replace the US money with state funds.
In the end, more federal money will flow to OK… it will be in the form of bailouts and increased spending on medicaid… stupid breeds poor health over time
What else are blue states going to spend their money on?
The first and only president to launch a coup attempt from inside the Oval Office has yet to face criminal charges for that travesty, and now there’s a chance the first thing he’ll be criminally charged with will be a hush money scheme with a porn actress that helped get him elected in the first place.
New York Times Magazine goes deep on the Atlanta district attorney investigating Donald Trump’s 2020 election subversion efforts in Georgia:
Two state-level prosecutors will have to hold TMFWWNBN to account since our gutless AG won’t.
If only there was some high ranking Republican, maybe in the Senate, that could speak to what happens when vaccines aren’t available for some serious childhood diseases.
The recent “I’d rather be a Russian than a Democrat” shift in Republican politics sure wasn’t something I expected, after all the cultural programming in the opposite direction over the years.
