  1. 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.
  2. Susan Collins must find this attack very troubling.
  3. Si, correcto.. Dos librae. Gracias, Senora. Don’t tell me a bitch don’t know Spanish.
  4. 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.
  5. This is so damned depressing.
  6. How is it very clear, pep secretary?
  7. Is Pete Hegseth the most prodigious, shameless ass kisser in the history of American politics?
  8. Not all. There’s a requirement to have completed the 7th grade. Bunches auto eliminated.
  9. That too. Damn!
  10. I’m still finding it hard to come to grips with the fact that this is happening in America.
  11. During the campaign, Trump promised “black population jobs.” True to form, the opposite of what he promises, happens. Black unemployment is now 7.5%.
  12. 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.
  13. He’s a toxic admixture of arrogance and ignorance. Oklahoma’s 50th ranked school system is on display everyday in the US Senate.
  14. 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!
  15. 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.
  16. I saw the chief medical biscuit on TV comparing vaccines to slavery. What’s happened to us?
  17. Trump really has made racism great again: Trickle-down racism: Trump's effect on whites’ racist dehumanizing attitudes Highlights • Racially dehumanizing attitudes can be influenced by political elites. • Trump supporters expressed more racially dehumanizing beliefs toward Black people after the 2016 presidential election. • Trump opponents expressed less racially dehumanizing beliefs about Black people after the 2016 presidential election. https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/trump-approval-rating-polls-cover-100112160.html
  18. Jeffries is not a bad person but I have reluctantly come to the realization that he is not the leader for this moment and is all wrong for the 2020’s.
  19. She sure has been in or near a lot of situations where rape has been alleged.
  20. Will Tech’s new chancellor be a UH grad too, or will it be that christo fascist from Midland?
  21. Boy, that’s a pretty cynical take.
  22. Major billionaire makes bombshell accusation against Trump: ‘Most people are silent’ Dalio, the founder of Bridgewater Associates, told the Financial Times in an interview released early Tuesday that the United States is moving toward autocratic-style politics, pointing to how a decline in trust, “gaps in wealth” and “gaps in values” are pushing “more extreme” policies. “What is happening now politically and socially is analogous to what happened around the world in the 1930-40 period,” Dalio said. https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/major-billionaire-makes-bombshell-accusation-152515698.html
  23. Did anybody catch Campbell’s pitch last night during the ND-Miami game? https://sports.yahoo.com/article/cody-campbells-group-launches-tv-150430529.html
  24. If she ever got the nerve to ask Trump that question, he’d probably respond with, fuck you.
  25. Tech just out recruited OU again by securing a commitment from 5* OT, Cooper Hackett. They were on him early and it seems to have paid off. The GM Is earning his money.
