Regarding NPR, they sponsored an "open forum" with David Hogg as one of the participants and the rest of the panel from the same part of the political spectrum. Your tax dollars at work, folks!
Not a total fix for the Transgender sports problem, but how about taking a sampling of the height and weight of say,1000 random women, playing in each College sport and determine the average. If a male, now claiming female identity wants to play, he/she can't be any more than the average height or weight of the typical biological women playing that sport. Might make things a little fairer, avoid injuries and prevent a large number from qualifying.
Soo, we left billions of dollars of military hardware in Afghanistan and now we're sending stuff seized from Iran to Ukraine, which is probably the same stuff. What kind of clown world are we living in?
Boilermaker Alumni here. What Purdue did wrong was putting too much emphasis on their very best player, Zach Edey. Otherwise, they had a great season, and even though they didn't win last night, I'm extremely proud of what they accomplished.
"No, immigrants who are here illegally aren't rushing to vote and commit crimes. Actual data show both rarely happen"
Umm, we start with the premise, "immigrants who are here illegally" , then transition to "...aren't rushing to commit crimes..." They committed a crime right out of the gate. Was it murder? No. Was it rape? No. Was it illegal to cross the border the way they did it? Yes.
We love to do the "50 Shades of Grey" for laws and consequences. We forget that speeding is actually breaking the law...until we get reminded by our police force. Depending on one's ideology, "Speeding isn't a crime, killing someone is a crime" is not too far from "Crossing the border illegally isn't a crime, killing someone is a crime". We creep further and further away from recognizing our sin as long as we indulge it a bit less obviously than someone else's sin. We so easily forget that all have sinned, wages of sin is death regardless of our perceived relative measurement. Jesus died and rose that we might live, not because we're better than Hitler, but because we'll never be as good as God. The term is "dead in trespasses and sin". Dead is dead, whether it's speeding or mass murder. Life is miraculously granted by the Holy Spirit because He WAS good enough and I am bad enough.
Oh, I did indeed read it! When "Car Talk" ended and was replaced by pischwasser like "This American Life", I reset the former NPR pushbutton on my car stereo.
Visit your local R Party HQ. Volunteer to pass out flyers, make calls. And pray that many other people do the same, and that our efforts succeed in changing enough American voters' minds.
Regarding the illegal cancellation of student loan debt - our defense budget ((in a dangerous world) is being cut as part of the laughably titled “Fiscal Responsibility Act.” If this loan deal goes through, that adds 100% of the loans directly to the deficit. What’s wrong with this picture?
Biden Is Spending $1 Trillion to Fight Climate Change...
This might as well read Biden is spending $1 trillion to find out why we have inflation.
Appeals court judge denies Trump's bid to delay next week's hush money trial...
If the judge is not a progressives activist Trump's lawyer need only to open with a motion to dismiss because the indictment is improper.

NPR "drifting" left ??? That media outlet should never see one penny of tax money.

No, you’re not the last person caring about helping Ukraine. “Moscow Margie” doesn’t speak for me.

Erick, the master of understatement:
Small busines inflation fears won't go away ... INFLATION won't go away, not just the fears.
NPR drifts left ... No, they went full rudder hard left, while smugly pocketing taxpayer-paid salaries.
You should read that guy’s piece. Really enlightening. Used to love ‘All Things Considered’ and Mo
Oh, I did indeed read it! When "Car Talk" ended and was replaced by pischwasser like "This American Life", I reset the former NPR pushbutton on my car stereo.
Amazing how lost they are in their bubble, logic, circumspection is lost on most of them.
‘All Things Considered’ back in 80’s and 90’s. No more.
Erick, what can be done to/against the Biden Admin when they continue to ignore the SCOTUS in its efforts to 'forgive' student debt?
Biden ignores a co-equal branch, and has the audacity to claim Trump will be a dictator?
What can be done? Elect someone else as POTUS and yell until he reverses Biden's EOs.
I agree. But what can be done now?
Visit your local R Party HQ. Volunteer to pass out flyers, make calls. And pray that many other people do the same, and that our efforts succeed in changing enough American voters' minds.
Again, I agree. But you're talking November. I'm wondering what we (or anyone) can do now?
