    Really, they've thrown a wrench in it? I haven't noticed. I've been too busy laughing at them ruin their reputations.

    Well... when you scrape away the veneer of hypocritical 'piety' from their rhetoric, you see that what they really advocate is little more than the ethos of a PARASITE. They want everyone with any skill and energy to work their asses off, and then put everything they've earned into a big collective 'kitty', from which everyone, including slackers and bums, gets to take whatever they want.

    Nothing new... the ideas supporting this have been around for QUITE a while....

    Dude Einstein started out in Europe. He was already well known and respected before he fled the Nazi for America. You want to improve inner city schools so do I now all you have to do is get the teachers unions and race hucksters out of the way. They seem to be dead set on making sure black don't learn to do anything other than hate whitey and get themselves sterilized.

    In that case, religious folks should avoid imposing their beliefs on others with the like of prayers to their imagined deities at government meetings or other official gatherings.
    This generalization is a backhand insult to teachers who work with parents to keep them informed and involved. It's not unlike people who talk trash about police or the military. Teacher pay is too low to attract STEM instructors as it is and holding teachers up to ridicule only makes it more difficult.
    Eisenhower was the last President who took securing our borders seriously.

    What's coming in a few days is going to be truly disgusting. I was asking what happens if the numbers hit 10,000 a day and it looks like it may go even higher. What will we do with millions of people showing up on our doorstep when we don't have enough housing for people already here? How bad does it have to get before we do something?
    Two people? Who the hell cares? We have thousands of refugees (how many are real refugees) crossing the border every day.

    No, you have to raise teacher pay. Some of the lowest performing states have weak or nonexistent unions.
    Teachers' unions don't want blacks to learn anything? What a jackass comment!

    Biden should be impeached and removed for dereliction of duty if he doesn't SEAL THE BORDER SHUT TO ALL MIGRATON IMMEDIATELY! We must declare a moratorium on ALL migration into the United States for at least five years, except for actual, provable cases that deserve asylum!

    As Commander-in-Chief, what's Biden doing about protecting our sovereignty and our border? NOTHING! It's a NATIONAL EMERGENCY!

    But, what's Biden's big priority right now? Getting an 'omnibus' bill stuffed through Congress between now and January to squander even more money that we don't have -- and -- his other big initiative? AFRICA!

    We impeached Donald Trump, twice, for far, far less cause!

    Liberal/leftist teachers are more worried about politics, gay, pronouns and brain washing! Education is problematic, they send them out into the world dumb as rocks and their DNC Overlords take it from there ;)

    From what I see from todays children and some of their examples, they are being taught by illiterate, agenda driven propagandists!!

    As a card-carrying heathen, I'm baffled that anyone would feel "imposed upon" by being present during a public prayer. Those who feel otherwise are supplicants from the Holy Church of Woke, piously seeking the Blessed Badge of Victimhood. This holy quest can be trying, so we pray that Safe Spaces™ are available during the offending prayer to which the faithful can flee, wherein they can call their mommies and have a good cry.
    A pathetic strawman having nothing to do with point being made, particularly re: the genderfluid jive, where teachers & school administrators nationwide actively enforce the first rule of grooming: Don't tell the parents.

    "It's good to see someone on the left realize that grooming and indoctrinating children is wrong."

    yep, grooming and indoctrinating children is wrong regardless if it's a teacher or a preacher, glad the left and right can agree on that

    These 'teachers' may be similarly brained, and that's why they don't teach academics because they are equally ignorant. They probably are teaching what they know, and that this is what they know.

    You would impeach him for following the law? Our laws are the problem and have been for decades. That said, I think Biden should do something to stop illegal border crossings.
    Why stop people we want here? Canada has had a point system for more than fifty years. We can have a point system, too.
    Don't get hysterical, but it could turn into something much worse than it is now.
    Africa? Joe doesn't talk about Africa much.
    Trump deserved to be impeached for obstructing the Russia investigation his own DoJ ordered, not for his contact with Russia. He deserved impeachment for 1/6, but it was too late in his term. As to whether or not he have been impeached... as practical matter, he shouldn't have been impeached because there was no way he would have been convicted.

    Biden for the border? No.

    The Chinese already own or control everything that has any value throughout Sub-Saharan Africa. Now Biden wants to come along and have the U. S. shell out billions to pay for all rest of the worthless crap the Chinese were wise enough to avoid. Then, after we pump billions of dollars in 'aid', welfare, corruption, etc., the Chinese will step in and take over what new spoils are available that WE paid for....

    Meanwhile, you're right about one thing -- the situation right here at home on our own border is about to get much, MUCH worse. And Biden's handlers couldn't care less....

    Teachers don't teach academics? Absurd. The truth is they push university training too often instead on encouraging students to consider taking up skilled trades.

    I'm sure most of them simply follow guidelines and brainlessly pass out curriculum day by day :) My GF has a 16-year-old and he says the worst part of school now is some Spanish interpreter translating the entire time everything the teacher is saying.... He says it drives you nuts until you learn to "Tune it out" and at that point no one is paying attention.....

    But we know the left, screw the American children, the non-speaking illegals are Americas last hope ;)

    The reason the Chinese have their hands on a lot "everything that has any value" is they are manufacturing a lot of goods. They don't have control over everything and what they control now can be challenged. At least Old Joe is talking about taking action, something Trump, Obama, Bush and Clinton didn't do.
    Oh, I think they care, but they're unwilling to challenge the element in their party who want to let the the border rushers in.

    They really don't teach anything other than their personal agenda, all they are there to do now is follow common core guidelines while they bullshit on forums via, tablets, laptops provided by taxpayers or sit there all day with their noses in a cellphone like the majority of the students they are paid to teach..

    I don't think our schools are as good as they should be, especially in lower-income communities, but we aren't at the bottom of the heap even though we don't spend enough on teacher salaries to get quality STEM instructors.

    We'll see what happens when we're past the covid business.
