LA TEACHER'S UNION PRESIDENT: 'Our babies may not have learned all their times tables' but 'they know the words insurrection and coup'.

Perhaps learning their multiplication tables ['times tables'] is more important to their education?
THEY FINALLY FIGURED IT OUT? Australia's 'covid zero' policy is 'not a sustainable way to live'.
IS HE NAIVE OR STUPID? A lesson for Joe Biden.

I'd vote for stupid, but 'and' works as well....
THE AGE OF THE CAR IS GONE, that of the SUV has succeeded.
The United States started the trend. SUVs took up 1.8 percent of the U.S. light-vehicle market in 1975, rising to 5.1 percent a decade later and to 18.9 percent by 2000. The financial crisis of 2008 induced only a small dip and by 2010 SUVs made up nearly 30 percent of all sales and reached half of the market in 2020.
Judging from his biography, the author is roughly my age, yet he clearly disremembers the SUVs [suburban utility vehicles] of our youth: back then they were called station wagons. I haven't bothered to look up the data, but I'll bet in the 1950's and 60's station wagons took up a larger than 1.8% share of the automobile market.

Evolution happens. The author didn't.
HINT -- NOT WELL: An update on how the Philidelphia Inquirer's woke newsroom mission is going.
YES.
VICTOR DAVIS HANSON: America is relilient, but is resilience enough?
FEET, TO VOTE WITH: A record number of parents opt out of public schools.

Now, if only the public money followed the students....

Good riddance to government [teacher] unionization.
WOKE ARMY SERGEANT TO AMERICAN CIVILIANS: My weapon is pointed at you.

Why she hasn't been shitcanned like Col. Scheller is beyond me.
WITH STUDENTS IN CRISIS, A PROFESSOR LEAPS TO THEIR AID: We need more trigger warnings.

Yes. About this professor....
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS FAILING HAS FAILED. It’s up to the states.

As it should be.
A BETTER RETORT. "If Larry Elder is ‘the black face of white supremacy’ in California; then is Gavin Newsom is the white face of Black Lives Matter?"
PROOF THEY NEED THEIR BUDGET DECIMATED ZEROED: CDC to restart gun violence research.

Don't give them a damn dime until they can verify that every coronavirus has been completely and permanently eradicated.

MORE: Strike the above; make employees pay the CDC for the 'privilege' of working there.
IN THEIR CONTINUING SEARCH FOR ANOTHER INSANITY TO LATCH ONTO: It's time to reconsider air conditioning for the sake of 'cooling justice'.

So build a log home (by hand) in the middle of a forest. Except for the fact that they require trees to build, they're inherently environmentally friendly. (I know; I live in one.)

Just be sure that you don't use any of those nasty carbon-emitting power tools in construction. And no roads or neighbors -- both promote those nasty heat islands.

Idiots. Thoughtless Brainless idiots.
