Arkansas Took Away Credit for Ap African American Courses

Just months after Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders decided to follow in Ron DeSantis’ footsteps by signing bills that severely limit what educators can teach, the state’s Education Department has removed course credit for an AP African American Studies class. The Education Department’s communications director, Kimberly Mundell, has verified that the course won’t qualify for early college credit this upcoming…

Always helpful to note that we’ve had 46 U.S. Presidents, and they’ve been indicted on a total of 91 felony charges. Here’s how it breaks down:

1-44: 0

The multiple Trump indictments are a harsh reminder that none of this would have been necessary if law enforcement -- federal, state, and local -- had held this slimeball accountable for his crimes in New York over the decades.

One reason they didn't is that our top "news" media organizations treated him like a celebrity. They mostly ignored what a crook he was -- and that extended well into his presidency.

When the prosecutors and the journalists collaborate in this evil way, evil prevails.

I started doing this town academy thing, you get to learn more about town governance and history and the different departments. It’s an 8 week class, every Monday til October.

I went in a bit skeptical, thinking maybe I would be 1 of 10 people at best… nope… 30 eager fellow citizens there with me!

When companies claim they have a labor shortage, what that means is:

“We exploit our workers and refuse to pay them a living wage.”

Our world will never get better - and will likely only get worse - until the day we realise that #politics is not the way 'to make a better world for humanity' or whatever we get told since birth, but just a game created by and for the ruling class, so they can keep their status in this system unchallenged - along with the benefits they gain, at the expense of the rest of us.

It is OK to say, “I don’t know,” when asked what do you think.

Each year in the mid summer months, bark lice encase tree trunks in the Houston area with giant, silky webs, bringing Halloween vibes to the area early. Despite their ghastly appearance, the Texas A&M Forest Service says that they're good for trees.

"The Georgia prosecution will interact with Jack Smith’s ongoing investigation in interesting ways. To explain how, I want to first show that the indictment is, fundamentally, about protecting the integrity of Georgia’s government and elections. To see that, it helps to read counts 2 through 41 before reading the RICO charge, which is laid out in 70 pages describing 161 overt acts, many of which took place outside of Georgia."

KALISPELL, Mont. — Badge and Lander Busse tromped into the forest behind their house on a snowy Sunday in March, their three hunting dogs in tow. It was in these woods, just outside Glacier National Park, that the teenage boys learned to hunt, fish, dress a deer and pick birdshot from Hungarian partridges.

It was also here that the Busse boys grew attuned to the signals of a rapidly warming planet — torrential rains that eroded their hiking trails, wildfires that scarred the land, smoke so thick it forced them indoors.

Watching their cherished wilderness succumb to the effects of climate change enraged...

"When you’ve got a four (!) times indicted, twice-impeached former president attempting a democracy-threatening comeback bleating insane threats at witnesses while promising to tear down the Western alliance and the rule of law if he regains power . . . people need real talk."

at least 2x a day Eli (my 90 lbs golden retriever, who likes to lie in front of the window air conditioner meant to cool me) manages to swing his big butt onto one of my monitor cables and disconnect the monitor. 😂

One of these days I'll mount the cords out of the way, but the fix is so simple that the ROI simply hasn't made sense...yet.

Hilllary Clinton laid it out with Rachel last night. Dems have no way to get the message out. There are no Fox, ABC,CBS stations playing Dems message on regular airways to tell them all the good things Biden has done and is doing.
