Trump Appears To Doze During Stroke

The results are they continue to raise revenue regardless of results, so what we’re seeing is the reduction in effort.

If you look closely you can see that top bill is indeed a 50.

They’re right, House Party needs to make a comeback!

If Trump is just gonna revive 90s franchises on a whim, House Party 4 would be so much better than Rush Hour 4.

I don't know which villain this is like (Kang?) but if I had a time machine I would practice selective assassinations, starting probably with Alexander. Maybe Darius, but I don't know enough about the Persian Empire to say if that would accomplish my goals.

I don’t want to vote for a Democrat who promises to get Trump’s voters to vote for them. I want a Democrat who wants to put Trump in prison

I have to opposite problem. I hang in there and suffer to the end on almost any show once I’ve given it a couple seasons. Stranger Things is bad, but I just have to know where they go with it, even though I am not enjoying it at all.

Playing devil’s advocate isn’t even necessary. A middle school history book will explain why the (three, not two) Reconstruction amendments were written and ratified separately.

This was just sent to me by an LAUSD parent. A 4th grader was assigned to design a book cover for Pippi Longstocking using Adobe for Education. Here is what the AI tool generated:

I don’t understand how they could justify killing it without making it retroactive. Just put out a new grandfather clause? But Trump’s grandfather was an immigrant, so that wouldn’t work.

You have to love them printing β€œJosh Shapiro has spent his life preparing to lead an America that might no longer exist” and still saying he’s the best candidate.

Saying you are going to β€œwin over Republican voters” is automatically disqualifying. That Third Way bullshit wasn’t even correct 30 years ago when Clinton won, and it’s been very clearly wrong every single election since.

Well, maybe *he* isn't selling them. He's literally said he doesn't know who they are, they're just being recommended to him. Someone slides a paper in front of him and he signs it.

Was it β€œattempted” if he still took power and proceeded to consolidate power and dismantle our democratic institutions?

I don’t know about wealthy districts, but in NYC public schools we sometimes struggle to get students evaluated because the parents still think there’s a stigma, and getting an IEP will hold their child back in the future. Untrue, but exactly the situation these ghouls are trying to create.

What people who are not involved in education don’t seem to understand (willfully, perhaps) is that special education accommodations do not β€œhelp” with the test, they remove obstacles. If you don’t know the material, all the time in the world isn’t going to help.

Yes, it's obviously in bad faith. Complain that too many people are getting testing accommodations, make accommodations harder to get, decrease overall social mobility, etc.

Speaking only at the NYS high school level, I can tell you that extra time is not a significant β€œadvantage,” in that 99% of the students without accommodations finish the state exams well within the 3 hour window. They don’t need more time.

I had absolutely no interest in the second movie, but then I watched it and was enthralled. It was so good. Haters (me) be damned, James Cameron knows how to make a movie.
