Elon Musk exposed how California essentially legalized voter fraud:
"California and New York have made it illegal to show your photo ID when voting. Thus, effectively they've made it impossible to prove fraud. Impossible. They've essentially legalized fraudulent voting in California and New York. And many other parts of the country"
The same people who demanded vaccine passports, digital records, and proof of vaccination suddenly say asking for photo ID to vote is unacceptable
That makes zero sense
If you need ID to drive, fly, buy alcohol, open a bank account, enter buildings, and prove vaccination status… why is voting the one thing where ID is treated like some impossible burden?
When a system makes fraud hard to detect, people should ask why
This is not complicated. Secure elections should require basic verification
Hey Jasmine…
Black pilot here.
I think you missed the plot.
Then again, that’s becoming a pattern.
I graduated from West Point.
I went through Army flight school.
I learned to fly the AH-64 Apache.
I deployed to combat and flew 55 combat missions over Baghdad.
Nobody handed me a cockpit because of my skin color.
Nobody lowered the standards for me.
Nobody looked at me and said, “Let’s check a diversity box.”
That’s what people like you don’t seem to understand.
Suggesting that Black pilots, Black engineers, Black doctors, or Black leaders need special preferences to succeed is not empowering, it’s insulting.
I didn’t want a different standard.
I wanted the same standard.
And when you’re flying into combat, the American people don’t care what race the pilot is.
They care whether the pilot is qualified.
Merit isn’t racist.
Excellence isn’t discriminatory.
And reducing every achievement to skin color says far more about your worldview than it does about mine.
-be me
-go to new dentist, since my old one retired
-new dentist: "you have three cavities"
-feel bad vibe, go get a second opinion
-"woooah - buddy, you have zero cavities. thank god you came to us. let's just do a cleaning"
-send wife to this savior second dentist

-wife bails on getting them filled, goes to a different dentist a year later
-"woooah gurl, you have zero cavities. thank god you didn't get them filled"
why is dentistry like this 😭
@WholesomeMeme Something has an effect on something passively. The effect of all the rain was flooding
Something affects something actively. The rain affected the road by causing the river to flood
It's misused so much they may as well be the same word. I think common usage is just vibes TBH
@RockChartrand The far right wants the government to do nothing and to pay no money for it.
The far left wants the government to to do everything and take all the money.
Our politicians have compromised and decided to do nothing and take all the money.
Bill Maher asks how Mississippi is kicking California’s ass in education, and Texas is “blowing them away” in green energy for “way less money.”
“Did you know that a black fourth grader in Mississippi is two and a half times as likely to be proficient in math and reading as one in California? Mississippi is kicking our ass in education and for way less money. We’re 37th in fourth-grade reading, they’re ninth.”
“Texas is kicking our ass in green energy. The average time to get solar panels connected there is three to four months. About 1,000 days faster than it took me. Remember when I was trying to get my solar hooked up? It would have been quicker to build a windmill.”
“Texas has passed California in solar and blows away California when it comes to wind and energy storage. How does a state with no pro-climate policies produce better climate results than a state where here, even though we have so much better bumper stickers on our Priuses?”
“I’ll tell you why. Because you’re allowed to build there because every third person in Texas isn’t someone whose job it is to make sure nothing gets done.”
“Democrats, these are your issues: education, race, the environment.”
“And I say this with love: you’re losing to the Waffle House, car-on-the-lawn states.”
My kid's school asked me to donate supplies.
Paper. Pencils. Hand sanitizer. Tissues.
I pay property taxes.
My state has a $4 billion surplus.
The federal education budget is $238 billion.
And the teacher is buying pencils out of her own paycheck.
And I'm sending in Ziploc bags.
We fund stadiums for billionaires with public money.
We fund schools with bake sales.
And then blame teachers when test scores drop.
