Fair hit tbh
I love the idea that boy reading is the dumbed down one, when every top 10 list of popular books for women is a cavalcade of novels about fucking a Minotaur.

Putting up billboards because you disagree with someone is actually a pretty good example of exercising your First Amendment rights.

Yup Harmeet is a rockstar who did wonders for civil rights.
The Atlantic blames @HarmeetKDhillon for the “destruction” of the DOJ’s civil rights division on the grounds that 70% of the Biden-era lawyers who worked there quit during her tenure. What The Atlantic does not tell you is that Dhillon’s predecessor was progressive activist Kristen Clarke, an extremely controversial Biden appointment who, prior to joining the DOJ, was best known for antisemitism. She famously invited the author of a hate tract called “The Jewish Question” to speak on the Harvard campus under the auspices of the Black Student Union. At DOJ, Clarke used the Civil Rights division to force state and local governments to adopt illegal DEI programs and dismantle policing and criminal justice enforcement. She was the threat of government legal action pushing the adoption of the most noxious woke policies during the Biden era. She did immense damage to the DOJ and the country, she forced the adoption of unpopular and ineffective policies and she filled her department with ideologues, activists and diversity hires who do not belong anywhere near the levers of power. The transformation of the Civil Rights Division and the removal of Kristen Clarke’s loyalists is one of the biggest accomplishments of the Trump administration. Dhillon is a hero and has done a great service to her country.

Doctor: “Congratulations! You’ve been in a coma for twelve years but just woke up.” Patient: “Amazing! What’d I miss?” Ross Douthat on the hospital TV: “You did occasionally call him ‘Talafreako.’” Donald Trump, president of the United States: “I also call many of them ‘dumbocrats.’”
In an interview airing Sunday on 60 Minutes, correspondent Ross Douthat asks President Trump: If it took six months of not insulting the Democrats to get a deal done, do you think you could do it?

BREAKING: California voters just passed Prop 37. Buyers of newly built homes can now put down 3% instead of 20%. How: the state lends you the other 17% as a second mortgage, funded by up to $25 billion in bonds. On an $800,000 home that's $24,000 down instead of $160,000.

I actually think students should be taught skills and evaluated by tests and teachers can be a little stressed out about achieving these results for students. Obscuring failure does not create success.
🚨NOW: Georgia's new Education Secretary wants to declare war on testing in schools, says they "stressing out teachers"

Agreed. The president consulted them and chose someone terrific—who had a hearing and should have no R opposition. The time for behind-the-scenes quibbling/negotiating is past. The judicial noms on the table need to be confirmed during the lame duck - it’s the last train out.
President Trump nominated U.S. District Judge for the Eastern District of Arkansas Lee Rudofsky to serve on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. This appellate court covers Arkansas, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, and South Dakota. There is a very limited window to confirm Rudofsky--before Senate Democrats block him. Arkansas' two Republican home-state senators--@JohnBoozman and @TomCottonAR--are blocking Rudofsky, as they wanted someone else. (They have @JohnCornyn and @SenThomTillis doing their bidding for them.) They need to change their minds--and fast--or Republicans will lose this key appellate court seat. Cornyn and Tillis are leaving the Senate. But this is an unforgivable sin for Boozman and Cotton.

So to her great credit did my mother, fortunately she tells me she laughed out loud at my gaffe for which I have apologised.
I had a little chuckle at the opening paragraph of Jacob Rees-Mogg's latest piece.

Minnesota governor-elect @amyklobuchar (D) on who she will appoint to fill her Senate seat: "I will do right by the state of Minnesota with that person."

Miller is the perfect the answer if Trump thinks his problem is high favorability.
TRUMP NAMES STEPHEN MILLER AS NEW WHITE HOUSE CHIEF OF STAFF President Trump announces that Stephen Miller will become White House Chief of Staff starting Monday, November 9. Miller, currently Deputy Chief of Staff and one of Trump's most trusted advisers, will replace Susie Wiles, who is moving to Trump's political operation. Trump praised Wiles for doing an outstanding job.

Again, I suggest a super-smart policy whereby we simply change 5s and 6s in people’s credit scores to 8s. Voila! Progress!
