Charlie Kirk Assassinated [Shooter in custody]
If that ain’t living by the sword and dying by it, I don’t know what is.

Charlie Kirk got ded, Erika Kirk grifts in place
Do you think it was wrong to want to hear from Dylan Roof, Vance Luther Boelter, David DePape, or Timothy McVeigh?

The evil that men do lives after them. The good is often interred in their bones.Requiescat in pace, Charlie.

Mass Shootings
A student shot two of his peers Wednesday at a suburban Denver high school before shooting himself and later dying, authorities said. Wednesday in America.

I’ll be interested in hearing from Kirk’s murderer. In the meantime, I don’t think he should be enlarged in death beyond what he was in life. He should be remembered as a husband, father, racist, misogynist, bigot, and grifter. And if I had my way, he’d be at home right now with his wife and children. Gun violence did not kill his ideas. It merely sanctified them among the people who are now whitewashing the really awful person he was.

How much better off would we be if we didn’t have a POTUS who foments violence and encourages hatred. He offered to pay the court costs for those who would violently attack his perceived enemies. Trump is hateful and dangerous because he give his people to be their very worst selves. And they are meeting the moment.

Tell me about Texas Tech
The loss of control might not be the deal breaker some think it is. Texas had all the control in the world as the big dog in the Big12, but gave it up for more money.

The problem with ethnicity being an unavoidable criterion arises when one understands ethnicity in the context of a shared cultural background or descent. Such cannot be easily discerned by skin, social location or even accent. I’m a black man of light complexion with two black parents with nappy hair. Fiesta employees speak to me in Spanish every time I shop in the store without fail, because, they make incorrect assumptions about my ethnicity. Because it’s so easy to do, the protections should be stronger.

Is Pete Hegseth the most prodigious, shameless ass kisser in the history of American politics?

Not all. There’s a requirement to have completed the 7th grade. Bunches auto eliminated.

I’m still finding it hard to come to grips with the fact that this is happening in America.

The Trump Economy
During the campaign, Trump promised “black population jobs.” True to form, the opposite of what he promises, happens. Black unemployment is now 7.5%.

Texas -- a failed state
The sole finalist for the Tech’s chancellor position is a UT grad and virulent right wing ideologue. He’s responsible for all of the anti CRT and DEI legislation and the law that limits free speech on Texas campuses: Building off his success banning CRT in Texas schools, Brandon Creighton championed a 21st-century curriculum for Texas to increase rigor and keep political agendas out of the classroom. In Higher Education, Creighton passed the strongest ban on DEI in public universities in the nation and sweeping reforms to rein in tenure. The Campus Protection Act was Introduced by state Sen. Brandon Creighton and signed into law by Gov. Greg Abbott in June, SB 2972 amends Section 51.9315 of the Texas Education Code to clarify where and how students can demonstrate on college campuses.

RFK Jr. off the chain and off his rocker
He’s a toxic admixture of arrogance and ignorance. Oklahoma’s 50th ranked school system is on display everyday in the US Senate.

Caught a second of Trump’s presser from the White House. When did plaster it with all of that tacky gold lame and paint? Damn!

Tell me about Texas Tech
Good Lord. Just what higher Ed in Texas needs. A 1950s ideologue. Building off his success banning CRT in Texas schools, Creighton championed a 21st-century curriculum for Texas to increase rigor and keep political agendas out of the classroom. In Higher Education, Creighton passed the strongest ban on DEI in public universities in the nation and sweeping reforms to rein in tenure. He also serves as a key member of the Senate Finance Committee and as a member of numerous committees, including Business and Commerce, and Jurisprudence.
