Sara Sharif: Murdered girl was being home schooled, says neighbour

bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-surr

Apparently she was 'Known to the authorities"

This will result in MORE regulation for home schoolers, and the issue of incompetent individuals who fail to act properly on concerns will nevr be addressed, the usual soundbites "lessons will be learned"

Perhaps rather than giving these useless managers / social workers promotion, then allowing them to take up other similar jobs, they should be SACKED, stripped of pensions and barred from any positions where the welfare of others is at stake.

It would provide an incentive to others that when it comes to safeguarding it is their job to ACT and not make excuses.

Perhaps reduce the benchmark where people can intervene.

Note that #JeffreyClark, like #MarkMeadows, is claiming he should not have to surrender for arrest in #FultonCounty. Clark is a disgrace to the legal profession. He has a real chance to be U.S. Attorney General if Trump is returned to the White House. Beyond sickening.

I've become more radical as I've gotten older because goddamnit all the fascist and useless assholes who were fucking us over 40 years ago are still in charge and they just refuse to die.

@StillIRise1963 @philip_cardella I think there's some deep societal trauma going on here and people, from our leaders on down, are really not dealing with it very well. Seeing masks is a reminder that this isn't over and a lot of folks aren't willing to deal with that.

Biden campaign is running this ad on Fox News homepage on debate day. Brilliant that they've co-opted "Let's go, Brandon!" with the Dark Brandon persona

This coverage of efforts in #Michigan to remove local officials who posed as false electors really brings home how pervasive Republican opposition to #democracy and #ruleOfLaw really is. theguardian.com/us-news/2023/a #MI #J6

In your opinion (and if you’re old enough to remember), which of these 1970s American sitcoms about black families was the all-around best, and why?

Please boost if you can for more responses.

5. Why it matters that #coup #plotter #Ginni #Thomas was in contact with criminal defendant John Eastman.

While John Eastman claimed to have insights about what was going on at the #corrupt #Supreme #Court, he was also in communication with Ginni Thomas. Hmmm. 🤔

If you viewed your #religion with as much skepticism as you view the religions of others, you too would be an atheist.

Don’t know about you, but I wasn’t going to watch the debate with or without the criminal on the stage.

Let’s be very clear: THERE IS NOT REPUBLICAN PARTY ANY MORE

No. Absolutely no. Read on.

“Since Ryan Walters was sworn in as #Oklahoma’s superintendent of public instruction in January, he’s called for prayer in public schools and hanging the Ten Commandments in classrooms.” #religion

Not that it seems to have sunk in yet, but lawyer John Eastman is likely about to be disbarred and sent to prison for Donald Trump.
