Mental illness

Fox Business: "Liberals admit to shoplifting from Whole Foods as a way to stick it to Jeff Bezos - 'If a billionaire can steal from me, I can scrape a little off the top, too,' one man confessing to theft said."

This is the same mindset leading to the keying of Teslas to stick it to Elon Musk and his American automobile company.  T.S. Eliot had it right:

"Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm; but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves."

A sudden realization

Red State: "Laugh-Out-Loud: NY Times Editorial Board Thinks Democrats Went Too Far Left in 2024."

There's only one reason the Times is making this admission now and it's not to criticize the Democrats nor is it to express a mea culpa for its terrible reporting.  It's because they've become so alarmed by the drop in the polls for the home team, they needed to stage an intervention. 

They're so lost

NY Post: "Democrats’ response to losing? Profanity chic and terrorist porn."

They 100% focus-grouped the profanity ploy. 

Can American schools be saved?

I'm skeptical.  It's been over four decades since the landmark report "A Nation at Risk" was released and American kids are dumber than ever.  If there was anybody more suitable for this heavy lift, it might be the liberal governor in the most liberal state in America.

Or not: "The state stepped in to fix the Boston Public Schools. Now it’s giving up. - There has been some progress. But the district failed to meet several of its goals, and the goals it did meet have not translated into sustained academic gains."

Everybody's got their two cents on how to fix American schools so here's mine: slash them to the bone.  And by that I mean schools should only focus on teaching kids how to read and write and do nothing else.

The mission creep of American schools is undeniable, and if we’re being brutally honest, too many schools have become one-stop social services hubs that also teach a little reading and math on the side. Instead of maintaining a focus on academics, schools are stretched to the breaking point, in part because of federal and state mandates and in part because they have been captured by an ideology that demands that every single student's need be met before any teaching or learning can occur. 

Schools used to be institutions of academic instruction, designed to equip students with the knowledge and skills necessary to become good citizens, prepared to meaningfully participate in a free society. But somewhere along the way, we decided that schools should also become social service hubs that cater to all the needs of students and families and aspire to fix societal problems that extend far beyond education. It seems fair —and even overdue —to seriously ask if it makes sense to continue using the word “school” to describe educational institutions that are also expected (or required!) to provide breakfast, lunch and snack, host immunization clinics, offer wrap-around health services, provide counseling, address declining mental health, disrupt the “school to prison pipeline,” supervise toothbrushing, teach financial literacy and host drag queen story hour. 

Massachusetts governor Maura Healey has the opportunity to capture the "only Nixon can go to China" moment: oppose the teachers union, fire the score of administrators, and help Bay State kids.  But she won't so we'll continue to move kids through this pipeline where they don't learn anything but at least their feelings aren't hurt.

There's a reason homeschooling is taking off in America.

Hot Air: "NPR's Katherine Maher Doesn't Remember Her Tweets, Admits NPR Blew It on Hunter Biden."

I used to listen to NPR fairly regularly during my work commute.  I even donated a couple times!  But Trump Derangement Syndrome made NPR intolerable and I'm not the only one who noticed:

Over the decade that NPR’s journalism priorities have narrowed, so has its audience. Back in 2011 it was roughly divided between liberals, moderates, and conservatives, tilting just slightly to the left. By 2023, progressive listeners outnumbered conservatives by six to one.

Defund these left-wing clowns, post-haste.  I refuse to pay for this.

OMG, the performative outrage over this group chat story: "The Atlantic's Signal Story Is Quickly Falling Apart."

Yes, it's an embarrassing mistake but the Democrats are trying to revive the "but her emails" meme.

So unclassified info was discussed on an encrypted messaging app approved for use by staff, where all parties involved were unified under President Trump’s agenda.

They’re so bad at this lol.

There's only four, geniuses

The Hill: "5 ways Democrats can fight Trump and defend the republic."

Two of them are more foot-stamping and the other two ("detail what we would do" and "eliminate waste, fraud and abuse") are things you either didn't do before the election or failed to articulate during the campaign.  You're all on board with cutting waste now? 

Just like Bernie's deathbed conversion for stopping illegal immigration, I guess.
