MS13 is a very violent criminal gang whose trademark way of killing people is to hack them to death with a machete. They are already established all over the United States and often use the "unaccompanied minor" loophole to bring in their thugs. Their native country, El Salvador is engaged in a mass crackdown on crininal gangs at home, so expect a lot more of these MS13 thugs to be headed this way with Biden putting out the welcome map.

This is a case of the reverse “Snake Fable”. We did not know he was a snake when we picked him up. So many good patriotic people worked for this man when he ran against Obama. And then he folded during the debates. Since then, we have witnessed his get even approach to anything related to Trump or his policies and a complete neglect of the principles that he grew up with. It is time for all of us to do a better job of vetting our candidates and sending money directly to those that we support.

The Durham report showed these corrupt agencies engaged heavily in election interference in past elections. Indeed the polls show that if the information on the Hunter laptop had not been suppressed, Trump would have won. There are a bunch of folks in the FBI< CIA, and DOJ who ought to be fired and some who ought to be in prison.

As to Kari Lake, if you believe that thousands of voters signatures could be legitimately verified in 2 seconds each, I want to talk to you about my bridge in Brooklyn.

The left wing denial, particularly that from their MSM propagandists is what is not true. Read the Durham report. It documents the political corruption and election inteference from the FBI, CIA, and DOJ in past elections. Anyone who thinks they have reformed is mistaken. There will need to be a very thorough house cleaning at all of those agendies which give them a huge motive to try to manipulate the next election, too.

CO2 is a very small percentage of the atmosphere. Most of the CO2 going into the air is from natural processes, NOT from humans. There have been periods in Earth's history with a lot more CO2 in the atmosphere than today. More CO2 means better growing conditions for plants, including food crops.

Its a complex issue. I dont think you or any one else has all the answers. The amount of CO2 going into the air from our activity is astronomical. To think there is no effect on the system is, foolish.

Having been part of that group of grade school children whose math ability was damaged by the failed "New Math" of the 1960s, I can relate to the problem of Common Core math today. At least in the 60s, when it became evident that New Math was harming students math ability, the education establishment junked it. Getting rid of the equally damaging Common Core seems harder because there are wealthy and powerful people like Bill Gates bound and determined to keep it in place, largely because their foundations developed it. Unfortunately, too often, it has been glossed over where there has been just a matter of changing the name while keeping the harmful substance of Common Core math. Comoon Core math is New Math 2.0 and should not be inflicted upon our students.

I think Bobbie's approach to pyromaniacs would be to hand out matches.

Well said, spot on. In order to be a teacher, one must obtain a degree and certifications if I’m not mistaken. What then is the need for a whole extra branded program? I’m confused because why do we need a flashy light show to teach math unless they are selling an idea?

Math is an instrument of the almighty whose numbers are bound to law and order. As a 2 is a 2 and never was or will be a 3. And 2+2 will always equal 4. This type of understanding acts as a foundational example of objectivity. That some things are always true and never not true. From these foundations come the basis of all other knowledge known. So I say it’s pivotal to learn mathematics although teaching it does require patience and creativity, but not distraction.

The number one problem in schools today, too many distractions.
