Geez, can't imagine how absolutely delighted House Divided/Psych must be to read about this. And on Michelle Obama's birthday--he must be absolutely ecstatic, reveling in the meanness of this.
The Trump administration moved on Friday to roll back school nutrition standards championed by Michelle Obama, an effort long sought by food manufacturers and some school districts that have chafed at the cost of Mrs. Obama’s prescriptions for fresh fruit and vegetables…. Combating childhood obesity was Mrs. Obama’s signature issue...
snip
A spokeswoman for the department said that it had not intended to roll out the proposed rule on Mrs. Obama’s birthday, although some Democratic aides on Capitol Hill had their doubts.

Well, that's kind of a tame story, Feral. Try this.

I used to watch Buckley all the time on PBS. The story is right, he was a conservative icon. I don't recall this, but then, there was a lot going on at the time.

President Donald Trump's campaign manager deleted a tweet featuring a dramatic photo of Air Force One at the Daytona 500 after users pointed out that the shot was from President George W. Bush's visit to the NASCAR race in 2004, not from Trump's visit on Sunday.
Brad Parscale tweeted the 2004 photo, which shows Air Force One rising above packed stands at the Daytona International Speedway in Florida, and wrote, ".@realDonaldTrump won the #Daytona500 before the race even started."

Another day at the office when DC minimizes what he feels is petty - to an extreme / while others maximize what they feel is pertinent - to an extreme.
I know, who the f*ck am I to judge what is and isn't important and to what degree/s? EXACTLY!
My turn to contribute my feelings!
We have a fuckstick President with shit people around him and the Dems can't figure out a way to beat him. They suck as bad as Trump and his cronies suck. For that I say, GBA!
Happy President's Day!

Trump's "Deep State" hit list
...Members of this network include Ginni Thomas, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas
...Thomas has spent a significant amount of time and energy urging Trump administration officials to change the personnel inside his government. This came to a head early last year.
Members of Groundswell, whose members earlier led the successful campaign to remove McMaster as national security adviser, meet on Wednesdays in the D.C. offices of Judicial Watch, a conservative legal group that has led the fight against the Mueller probe.
Judicial Watch's president is Tom Fitton. He's a regular on Fox News, and Trump regularly retweets his commentary on the "Deep State."
Conservative activists who attend Groundswell meetings funneled names to Thomas, and she compiled those recommendations and passed them along to the president, according to a source close to her.
She handed a memo of names directly to the president in early 2019. (The New York Times reported on her group's meeting with Trump at the time.)

Re: No One Cares Because Nothing Matters Anymore
It amazes me how quick people are to buy into the “Russian trolls as boogeymen” trope. Is it even remotely possible that two groups of people experience the same America differently? This is a cycle our country went through in the 1860’s when boatloads of Irish and Italian and Slavic immigrants were flooding New York and Boston. There is social unrest when large waves of immigrants bring about social change. When you add in the social changes caused by rapidly-advancing technology, you get the kind of sh*t storm we are in now. It will settle down. The country will survive. I repeat: this is nothing new.TraditionKU wrote: ↑Sun Feb 23, 2020 9:23 am https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/ar ... ce/606703/

Re: No One Cares Because Nothing Matters Anymore
So until then we should chalk it up to ignorami persecuting modern equivalent of the 19th century Irish, Italian and Slavic immigrants and affected parties just suck it up?? Didn't we learn anything from our past that our country is better than that?HouseDivided wrote: ↑Sun Feb 23, 2020 8:33 pm When you add in the social changes caused by rapidly-advancing technology, you get the kind of sh*t storm we are in now.

Re: No One Cares Because Nothing Matters Anymore
Not at all what I was saying, but thank you for so aptly illustrating my point. Society is a largely self-regulating ecosystem. We can nudge it in a certain direction, but when you try to force 90-degree turns, you get the same result you would expect when you overcorrect a turn in your car - not pretty. I’m sorry you feel that to be shame-worthy. Reality is not always palatable.zsn wrote: ↑Sun Feb 23, 2020 9:11 pmSo until then we should chalk it up to ignorami persecuting modern equivalent of the 19th century Irish, Italian and Slavic immigrants and affected parties just suck it up??
