I know what a malt is because I watched The Food That Built America on History Channel. It lead to the Mars bar bar and every national candy from Mars like Snickers, and indirectly to M&Ms.

The kneeling comment is key. I would have arguments with people who whined about the kneeling, the most peaceful form of protest imaginable.

My heart reaches out to her. We had dumb kids Zoom bomb our Back to School Night at the School I teach at. Not all the teachers are the most tech savvy and have the best security in their rooms. I did not need to see colleagues cry or this woman, her team, and her constitutions face this vile attack.

Need? Probably not. But I do like having hard data to throw around so people cannot claim “that’s just your opinion”. No, this is research from Harvard.

More rationales as to why her argument is a stupid one. But you and I are not (well I know I am not, I assume you are not) fancy appellate court justices.

That’s cool. I am in Los Angeles (on the west coast) now but I grew up in New Jersey (on the east coast, next to New York if you do not know) and we got to visit Iroquois (Native American group) longhouses on a school trip. We were also surrounded by towns with Native names: like Manalapan and Matawan. For non Native…

Um yeah. Pretty much. If you notice, Democrats are not doing so much attacking her as they did with Bretty Boy. And part of that is simply not to rile up the Right to come out and vote. If the Right just looks at polls and see, eh, Trumps going to lose, they might not show up and that could flip the Senate, which is a…

I mean its no Cabot Cove for murder volume, but I guess it does have them beat in the serial killer variety.

As a history teacher I make sure my students know previous and current titles. Current nomenclature in the US: indigenous peoples or Native Americans. Canada uses First Peoples. Indian is the old descriptor.

Oh Indigenous people history in the US is pretty interesting because many Americans think of it as a monolithic thing, and breaking down how there are so many unique groups and cultures is fun.

Additional scrutiny needed for past events is a good point, but I am not familiar enough with the case to state whether or no that actually occurred. I mean I don’t like the argument in the first place, but if they did not at least request more information about possible prior incidents that is even stupider.

How dare you sirrah! How dare you! You bring up the Peggy Eaton affair and have he unmitigated gall to leave out the most important player? Floride Calhoun will have her day sir, she will have her day!

Jaden is...off putting in person. He just seems a bit, just....well off. I was trying to think of a better word and I could not come up with one.

Her argument, as I take it, is that the racist crap was not the original cause of the issues so she can set racism aside when ruling on that case.

You have a reason to vote. That is enough for me!

I am not a POC, and where I grew up all the way through middle school we had one African-American family (not in my grade level, 6th grader when I was in 8th grade), one Egyptian family, one half Colombian half Indian family and every other minority was Asian.

It is pretty simple really. A) the Senate gets its marching orders on the stimulus package directly from Mnuchin who gets his orders directly from Trump. Trump wants judge over stimulus. B) Mitch McConnell loves judges more than anything, just ask Trump who said this to Woodward. C) Getting in a conservative justice…

When when has been in an enduring position of power, to be brought down to equal is often seen as a grave injustice to be thwarted. Hence, the collective blindness by some on white privilege and systematic racism, and the outsizes response to all threats, both real and imagined, to the status of white Republicans.

The character she is pulled from in comics was A) An idiot and B) explicitly based on George Bush. C) A dude. Victory Neuman, Vic the Veep

Your glow may dim, but will never extinguish...in reruns!
