All purpose news and politics thread part VI: This Is Not The Time For Posing

[JCAll]

This is why we need legitimate campaign financing laws.

It'll never happen, because the Right loves unlimited money in politics, but Santos is the poster child for why it should be limited.

I assumed that helping guys like Santos get elected was one of the reasons they love unlimited money in politics.

Haven’t you heard? That’s how the the GQP operates, slinging hypocrisy with a vengeance. Biden could singlehandedly discover a fool proof cure for cancer tomorrow, only to Qpublicans whine and complain that he put medical researchers out of a job. If there’s a negative for ANYTHING Biden does, Qpublicans will find it, if not, they’ll make it up.

Perhaps Biden could push for suicide prevention...

Oh WBE. Did you get Mark McKee yet?

Arkansas State senator Matt McKee asked a trans person at a legislative hearing "do you have a penis?" Does this State Senator have any basic human decency?

To which I'd reply "Do you have a brain?" That or "Why, did you want to suck it?"

That would have been awesome.

[AnakinFlair]

Less awesome, there have been reports of shots fired on Michigan State University.

Police have confirmed one fatality, several injuries.

Biden cant win.

The same GOP that called him weak and were mad he waited so long to shoot down the Balloon are now calling him trigger happy for shooting down the other 3 objects so fast with out proper information.

I hear GOP saying "Biden sold out to China"

My reaction: He sold out to China because...he ordered multiple balloons of theirs shot down?

And if he didn't shoot the balloons down...then would you say he didn't sell out?

Another school shooting. Just a normal day here in 'murica.

And they never questioned when trump fast tracked Ivanka's trademarks in China while he was president.

Anything that DeSantis can't control, he'll corrupt, destroy, or replace with something he can.

Tens of thousands of Florida high school students take Advanced Placement courses every year to have a competitive edge heading into college.

Now, Gov. Ron DeSantis says he wants to reevaluate the state’s relationship with the College Board, the private company that administers those courses and the SAT exam. And that has some high school students worried.

“I don’t see how I could have gotten ahead without them,” said Eli Rhoads, a senior at Pasco County’s Mitchell High School, who said AP courses helped him get a full scholarship to the University of Alabama. “You almost have to have these courses to stand out.”

DeSantis has not made clear exactly what he plans to change, but his remarks come after the College Board on Saturday accused his administration of playing politics when it rejected its new Advanced Placement African-American studies course over allegations that it “lacks educational value.”

Good time to remember, Michigan Republicans have been trying to get guns all over school campuses for the past decade.

I only just today heard about the train derailment in Ohio earlier this month. Good thing that lefty commie socialist Biden ordered all those train drivers back to work, huh?

[babyblob]

3 dead and 5 injured. The shooter is also dead in the Michigan State Shooting.

I remember when these incidents were the first story on the news. They have become so common that it was the 6 story on my morning news.

Cant ait for the thoughts and prayers from the Michigan GOP that have been so pro gun.
