"A high school standard about the expansion of civil rights and liberties for minority groups cut references to individual groups, including immigrants, people with disabilities and gays and lesbians. The new proposal includes teaching “how the expansion of rights for some groups can be viewed as an infringement of rights and freedoms of others.” Colbeck told Bridge he added that phrase."

"We used to have all the money and land. And we still do but it's not as fun now."

I see we're speeding up the process to beat Mississippi for #50 in education.

I feel this quote applies:

You can't take people's historical context away from them. Everybody always wants us to. Like, white people are like "come on, it wasn't us." Like they want black people to forget everything.
Like every year, white people add a hundred years to how long ago slavery was. I've heard educated people say that slavery was 400 years ago. No it wasn't. It was 140 years ago. That's two seventy-year-old ladies living and dying back to back. That's how recently you could buy a guy.
And it's not like slavery ended and everything has been amazing... just boom and then it's been parades and presents ever since.
You gotta remember that if you meet a black person and they have grey hair, they remember a time when they had to use a certain toilet, so give them a little time to be cranky.
And by the way white people have their own stuff that we went through, that hurt us that we have to cope with, like when they took our slaves away. That was pretty hard for us.""

-Louis C.K.

Scottie Walker might want to get that resume updated for his next job at some Koch Brothers think tank, just in case. ;)

He's done well by them. I'm sure they have a nice check waiting for him for services rendered.

He might just get reelected, IDK who the dems have running against him but they seem to screw it up every time.

In other news Corey Gardner just bought himself a primary from the right whenever he's up again:

I'll note that Chump already tweeted in support of white supremacist Corey Stewart's nomination for the VA Senate seat.

Wow, that is the only statewide office up in VA in 2018.

The sound you hear is Barbara Comstock sh-tting a very large, sharp-edged brick in VA-10.
