That's it, in a nutshell.
NOTHING!
No Budget.
No plan to address the economy.
No plan to address our failing bridges and roads (infrastructure).
No plan to reduce the county's debt.
NOTHING!
Instead, you attack the DOJ and the NY DA.
You have voted people into office the likes of MTG, Santos, and Jim Jordan.
You support people like Alex Jones and his rhetoric about Sandy Hook and the pain he has inflicted on the parents who lost children there.
You cheer these people on... and then, you call yourselves Christians. Hypocrisy at it's worst.
I can fully understand why the low-life here, like that keystone kop, scootie-pie, oddvark, and other chumpies like turdy420 and crACkman adore and support Chump but, it's mind boggling to see so many others in the Attic support this wannabe dictator.
You actually WANT this disgraceful specimen to be your president - AGAIN?
IF he gets voted in again, he will cause nothing but turmoil, going after those who did nothing more than their job but, because it was to look at the evidence, he has turned it into a vendetta.
He is a complete LOSER and will probably start WW III if voted into office again.
I guess, if that is what YOU want... own it.
I still cling to the idea that there are far more decent, moral people in this country, willing to vote against him and put an end to his BS.

Obama took care of all that with his shovel ready budget.
My Nikon D7000 had over 140,000 shutter releases so I bought a Nikon D7500. I have a mirrorless Sony A6000, but I hate having to constantly turn it back on and carrying 5 spare batteries, because that camera eats them alive. It is light weight though.
All this woke crap they spend all their time pushing down the throats of kids is why kids can't read, can't do math, can't write and have no sense of history. It was my understanding that these subjects where the main reason kids where to go to school. If it's changed, then I see no reason to send kids to school. We don't want them brainwashed and they aren't learning basics. Therefore, it may be time to pull them from a worthless institution that used to be called schools.
Both have their pro's and con's. Good points and bad. It's a non-subject just like Cannon vs. Nikon.

Please define "woke".
Woke describes ideas, viewpoints, and policy changes that would radically and negatively alter society, and is bad because it looks at the world through a lens of an oppressor and oppressed, or through left-wing identity politics, is the precursor to harmful socialist or Marxist reforms that would upend free and fair societies, expand the state and oppress most or all people — or would oppress specific groups the “woke” see as upholding perceived systemic injustices against minorities.
Now this may not what you think it is, but this is exactly what it is.

Now that Ooma is working, it's time to pick a TV service. Then I can cancel phone and TV from Spectrum.
YouTube TV looks good, but it's $72 a month with unlimited recording. Sling costs just $50 a month, and my Tivo can record. YouTube offers 100 more channels, but most of them I can ignore. Decisions, decisions.
Check out Pluto TV it's free. It works on phones, TV's and laptop.

People who are university administrators or teach college classes are some of the smartest people in our country. That is why they tend to be liberal.
Well, what an ignorant statement. Very presumptuous.

He only showed portions of selected views!
That's exactly what the Democrats did during the committees fake hearing. The outcome of those hearings were preordained. The Democrats had a political agenda, and it wasn't to find the truth.

Apparently higher schooling was not something that interested you. So you got what you wanted.
When I was very young, a doctor told me that in life, I could be placed in a 4x6 cell, denied drink and food. However "they" could not take away what I put into my mind because of studying (schooling).
Another thing that doctor told me, "The moment I stop learning, I should just enjoy my 'dirt nap' ". [Note Bene: It was almost seven decades when I had that medical exam.]

In 1989-1990, when HERI first fielded this survey, 42% of faculty identified as being on the left, 40% were moderate, and another 18% were on the right. This is not a normal curve – it is a clear lean to the left. Almost three decades later in 2016-2017, Higher Education Research Institute found that 60% of the faculty identified as either far left or liberal compared to just 12% being conservative.
In the fall of 1989, 26% of Americans were on the liberal side of the spectrum, 42% were moderate, and the remaining 29% described themselves as conservative. Three decades later, the numbers do not look all that different. Thirty one percent of Americans state that they are conservative or very conservative, 43% are moderate, and the 24% are liberal or very liberal.
When it comes to college and university administrators, whose ranks have grown dramatically over the past two decades, there is unfortunately not much research to draw on. The best picture we have comes from a 2017 survey of a nationally representative sample of roughly 900 “student-facing” administrators. He found that liberal staff members outnumber their conservative counterparts by the astonishing ratio of 12:1. Only 6% of campus administrators identified as conservative to some degree, while 71% classified themselves as liberal or very liberal.
The New York Times wrote in 2016, “It appears that a fairly liberal student body is being taught by a very liberal professoriate — and socialized by an incredibly liberal group of administrators.” Taken together the data clearly illustrates that liberals are overrepresented in the faculty and the administrators.

Total right-wing propaganda site!
But you might want to tell that to the folks who've been arrested, arraigned and/or convicted of seditious conspiracy that the 1/6 Committee Hearings were fake!
You might not like their responses!
Oh course, if Democrats are caught red handed, it's right-wing propaganda. The released video's of these folks "arrested, arraigned and/or convicted" shows clearly they were escorted into the capitol building by the police. Were all these tapes made available to they're attorneys and the courts? No?
It's their loan and I should not have to pay it.
