You think private schools want inner city kids in them? U haven’t been paying attention. If they don’t want to live by you they definitely don’t want you in a classroom with their child. Good athletes and maybe some handpicked students at best. 


Right, as if crime has absolutely nothing to do with that equation.

People pay 20-40k specifically to send their kids to a school without public school children.

I didnt ever think that the private catholic school down the street was taking the average kid from the block.  Private schools will have the $ to expand (if they want), and they will surely only take kids that have something to offer (sports, 4.0 GPA, performing arts abilities).  

The outcome of this is going to be that good schools stay good and bad schools will stay bad.    Likely even worse.  Just rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.

Thanks Georgia, we are all screwed.


$3+ gallon of gas (which is basically  a tax)

Higher taxes

Economic regulations, means higher unemployment

Selling out to China 

Massive illegal migration (here comes another 11 million free loaders)

Antifa and BLM just getting emboldened.

Massive spending that surely will push deficit into the $30 trillion range (when does that start to erode the stock market?)

A gym teacher is worried about other people being freeloaders?

And I will also be correct on all those points.

You're a gym teacher?  Really?  I thought people were kidding.

I guess the GOP is going to go back to pretending they care about our debt after a 4 year break.

The establishment (as has been clearly defined in the last four years) cares little about debt and deficits; Trump has pulled the curtain back for all to see the collective graft, corruption, swindling, and buy-offs.  The curtain will be closing soon; you will be served limited information and you will obey.

Calif. to regulate natural gas for new homes

The California Energy Commission plans to introduce regulations that would prohibit natural gas used for hot water and home heating in new homes. The rules, which would take effect in 2023, are designed to promote energy-efficient construction.

Tweet he had back in August about the kids names ringing out more than adults. Unless they vote for Trump. Then fuck the kids. 

Just lol. His picture here says athlete first but five months later it’s “if their views don’t align with mine then oh well they aren’t playing.” What a hypocritical dick.

Here we are

It's always a sign that straws are being grasped at when the Nazi comparisons begin.  In my lifetime I can recall the following politicians / leaders being compared to Hitler: Trump, Obama, Bush Jr., Bush Sr., Hillary, Reagan, Pat Buchanan, Putin, Thatcher, Nixon, Ford, JFK, Guiliani, Pelosi, AOC, Helmut Kohl, Angela Merkel, and even Ellen Degeneres.

We are not so much talking about the 'leaders', we are talking about societal shifts, much of it being led by Silicon Valley oligarchs and other socialists and Marxists, wherein those who remain silent get steamrolled by a radical movement.

Look at US history and you will always find hysterical sects that believe the country is on the verge of failure. Yet here we are. Nothing unique about this time.
