America survived four years of him, America will survive the next four years.
You Democrats are extremely dramatic. It would be better for you to accept that she lost and not try to find false evidence.

Okay, prove it or shut up.
This message is amusing. I won't stop, sir, you can't force me to shut up. It's possible that you should read what you said and received a response. I think it would be best if you were to shut up.

Another thing is that if she couldn't do her own job what makes you think she can serve as a president ?

Hey, I accept she lost; pfft. Candidates I've voted for have lost in the past and some will lose down the road.


*puts on @admin cap* That said, if you're going to say these texts are coming from Democrats, you need to show proof.

If so, we'll listen.
If not, my words from earlier stand: put up or shut up.

My heart grieves for those affected below, but you get the government you vote for so.... 🤷‍♂️ :shrug:🤷‍♂️


(The Guardian) “Karen’s gotta go,” said Matthew, 32, referring to Los Angeles mayor Karen Bass. He said that if she did not resign once the immediate crisis was over, he hoped that smart people would take to the streets and demand her resignation.

He cited a number that has been circulating on social media and in some news outlets, that Bass had cut $17.6m from the fire department’s budget before the crisis, and said that, given his level of trust in politicians, he would not be surprised if one of them had pocketed the cash that should have gone to the fire department.

Politico reported on Wednesday that the reports of budget cuts were “wrong”, and that “in fact, the city’s fire budget increased more than $50m year-over-year compared to the last budget cycle.” But even if that $17.6m statistic was not accurate, Harley said. “It’s hard not to believe it when you see this.”

Their friend David, 35, said that it was concerning to see Joe Biden sending money to Ukraine and Israel, when resources were so badly needed at home. “There’s no faith in the government at all,” Matthew said.

On the other hand, he added, they did have a lot of faith in the courage of the first responders. And, he said, “I have seen a great sense of community – everyone checking in on each other,” which provided some “faith in humanity restored”.
 
...the only way these racial ideologues, grifters and hustlers get their comeuppance over stuff like this is when it personally affects them; i.e. they're dragged into court and held to account for this?

American Family News: Comeuppance is coming for ideologues in charge
An advocate of better healthcare for all doesn't think medical schools will be allowed to ignore a Supreme Court ruling forever.

In the 2023 case Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard, the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that race could not be a factor in college admissions.

Ian Kingsbury of Do No Harm, an organization that represents physicians, nurses, medical students, patients, and policymakers as it works to keep identity politics out of medicine, says schools' admissions processes should have become race-blind. "Instead, you had all of these medical schools and the medical establishment publicly rebuke that decision and say … essentially, 'We're going to find a way around this,'" he details.

A recent report from Do No Harm confirms that was not an empty threat. "It's hardest, for example, to get into medical school as an Asian applicant and much easier if you're black or Hispanic," Kingsbury relays. "It's frankly unacceptable that this is still happening."

He goes on to note that because of the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC), the organization that oversees and organizes the medical education enterprise in the United States, many in the healthcare establishment remain ideologically committed to the principle of racial favoritism and "reject the virtue of race blindness." They have reportedly embedded DEI principles and practices into every stage of medical education – from applying to medical schools all the way to selection into residency – and threatened to penalize those that are not "diverse enough."

Kingsbury says the ideologues and radicals that have hijacked these organizations to serve their own purpose simply do not care what the Supreme Court has to say, but he thinks this will inevitably get the attention of policymakers and judges, especially under Trump's leadership.
