I'm not going to lie when I first read the headline I thought this was probably a frivolous lawsuit but after reading the article I thought that stuff should get pulled.

What frustrates me is schools are frequently very willing to spend money on sports related expenses. A librarian left a a New Hampshire school $4 million dollars. They spent $100,000 on the library and $1 million on a new scoreboard (source) In the vast majority of states the highest paid employee is a football coach (source). Local governments don't really care about education and because local governments are typically elected to me that means American citizens don't really care about education either.

Police said that the father-son duo would often get drunk and fight with each other. The mother left the home last week when Deepak beat her up.

I know this will piss people off but alcohol has to be one of the worst drugs. People, and I've been there, make horrible decisions when they're drunk. Obviously not everyone but man, "hold my beer" is a meme for a reason.

I think the people cutting down 150 year old tress are pretty clearly the ones to blame for cutting down 150 year old trees.

I think you hit the nail on the head with that one. We're facing another Republican engineered government shutdown but what's the #1 priority? Fashion.

An AP investigation in August uncovered a pattern of women at McMurdo who said their claims of sexual harassment or assault were minimized by their employers, often leading to them or others being put in further danger.

WTF?

Teacher should 100% be an option

Yeah it is. I've actually heard people make this argument too. How stupid do you have to be to believe that?

Boebert was re-elected to a second term last year by the slimmest of margins — beating her Democratic opponent in Colorado's 3rd Congressional District by just over 500 votes.

Her opponent is running again and his name is Adam Frisch. His website is:

Still in the house just not the speaker. Apparently it's a tradition that former speakers are allowed to have larger offices out of respect. But a lot of Republicans just love to hate Nancy Pelosi.

I found this telling (emphasis mine):

Mayor’s courts operate in a gray area of Louisiana law. Like municipal courts, they handle violations of local ordinances. Municipal judges must hold a law degree and pass the bar; a mayor can preside over court without meeting any qualifications. Yet, like a municipal judge, a mayor can impose fines or sentence people to jail.

Mayor’s courts must ensure defendants have fair trials. But unlike other courts in the state, they aren’t subject to rules like the Code of Criminal Procedure that are supposed to ensure courts are run fairly and properly.

Well I personally think the real issue here is teachers graduating with too much debt and the fact that most teachers are forced to have some kind of second job in order to pay their debt, bills, & rent \ mortgage.

Do you have a source for Democrats purging legitimate voters in any systematic or politically nefarious way?

The very last line stuck out to me:

Markou, the grower, said of the tree-cutting. “You kill your own history here.”

It is! It's unfortunate that Duolingo killed the volunteer program.

Do you have a source for Democrats purging voters?

Yeah that was my first thought. I'm willing to bet the company declares bankruptcy soon.

Hopefully someday it will be a federal law. I think disenfranchised voters ought to be able to sue the governors and\or attorneys general who removed them from the rolls.

Hillary's quote:

You know, to just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump's supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables. They're racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic – you name it. And unfortunately, there are people like that.
