@Eamon1916 Sure looks like a question mark to me.
@TruthSandwich@qoto.org I feel that way sometimes. But other people are at least seeing your answers.
@realTuckFrumper It doesn’t help that Lloyd Austin is actually FROM Alabama, where Tuberville is not! @kennethb

Sec of Def. Lloyd Austin Blasts Sen. Tommy Tuberville Holding Up Military Nominations: ‘Unprecedented, Unnecessary, and Unsafe’ https://www.mediaite.com/news/sec-of-def-lloyd-austin-blasts-sen-tommy-tuberville-holding-up-military-nominations-unprecedented-unnecessary-and-unsafe/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon
@GottaLaff We had big name guests there including #VP Harris and Gov. Pritzker of IL as speakers, and the likes of Jessie Jackson in attendance. Jackson is in no shape to suffer Covid, and he sat unmasked in the crowd.

Today was supposed to be the first time a woman ascended to the military’s Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Instead, three of the eight seats on the #Pentagon’s board of most senior military members will be filled with interim officers for the first time in U.S. history due to Sen. Tommy #Tuberville’s blockade on #military promotions.

I have seen some beard babies, and they are not a pleasant sight.

"a former Army Ranger, State Department diplomat and founder of a charter school network who has no official certification for the Houston job"
The libraries are to be made into detention centers. Students who are "disruptive" in class will be sent to the detention centers to computer-learn.
A predictably military solution to a non-military problem.
Why do we *always* do this? We have experts who spend their lives learning how to educate and teach. Then we pick an authoritarian.

It’s time to talk about RICO. Specifically, George state RICO law, which is quite different from federal law, is much easier to prove, and carries some eye-popping penalties. And Willis could soon charge Trump & Co with it. https://statuskuo.substack.com/p/georgia-rico-law-an-indictment-week?sd=pf
Attention #GSU2023 attendees! People are home today, and waking up sick with Covid. If you were there without a mask, please start testing.
@GottaLaff I just returned from a large conference, where only about a dozen of us were masked. On Saturday, they started making masks available at the information desk when a few attendees tested positive for Covid. Today, people are panicking as they arrive home sick. It’s definitely not over, & there’s no reason to go maskless when in large crowds indoors!

DeSantis is making Florida schools great again, one ban and muzzle at a time | Opinion - Miami Herald https://apple.news/Axzv_BNGPRgaDOy0OisrxoQ This is brilliant! I’m done reading editorials today because after this one the rest will just let me down. Vote Blue
@tultican I honestly have no words. It’s obscene.

Texas: BASIS Charter School Sells "VIP Car Line" for $2500+ a Pop - Charter school graft even surprises me at times. Charters are damaging for education, equity and democracy. Role them back under elected governance. https://deutsch29.wordpress.com/2023/08/13/texas-basis-charter-school-sells-vip-car-line-for-2500-a-pop/ #privatization
