    Good god! What the hell is it with these folks?


    AUSTIN, Texas — Public schools in Texas would describe slavery to second graders as "involuntary relocation" under new social studies standards
    proposed to the state's education board.

    A group of nine educators submitted the idea to the State Board of
    Education as part of Texas' efforts to develop new social studies
    curriculum, according to the Texas Tribune. The once-a-decade process
    updates what children learn in the state's nearly 8,900 public schools.

    The board is considering curriculum changes one year after Texas passed
    a law to eliminate topics from schools that make students "feel discomfort."

    Mr. Olmstead, my 3rd grade teacher's belt was the most extreme "feeling of discomfort" I ever had during my entire education..... I had daydream fantasies about whooping his ass for decades afterwards.....

    Involuntary relocation still sounds pretty awful. They should call
    it an early American welfare system under which the darkies were
    provided with the things they could not provide for themselves. You
    know: food, shelter and clothing. In addition it eliminated any need for abortions because all the children were considered a valuable part of
    the community. It was a regular love fest. "Discomfort" shit. There
    should be a holiday so Black people can thank White folks for taking
    such good care of their ancestors. If they hadn't been "relocated" they
    would have probably been eaten by wild animals in Africa.

    Will Floridians foot the bill for Trump’s legal fees? A Miami Republican wants them to

    Some Florida Republicans want millions to go toward former President
    Donald Trump’s legal fees. And they want residents to foot the bill.

    State Sen. Ileana Garcia, R-Miami, has authored a proposal that could
    grant up to $5 million to the Republican frontrunner, who has been
    indicted four times. The bill doesn’t namedrop the presidential hopeful,
    but says the funds would be provided to “qualified persons” who have
    been “subject to political discrimination” to “pay for legal fees incurred as a result of criminal charges brought by a U.S. public entity.”

    For a person to qualify, they must meet the presidential eligibility requirements and be a legal resident of the state.

    Trump is the only president in American history to have faced criminal
    charges.

    Will Floridians foot the bill for Trump’s legal fees? A Miami Republican wants them to

    https://www.miamiherald.com/news/politics-government/state-politics/article284552275.html

    Perhaps if the orange goon could keep his hands off women's pussys and
    stop defaming them he'd have enough money to pay his own damn bills.

    HawHawHaw!

    Seems diverse, equitable, and inclusive to me since the residents of
    various states are already footing the bill for the spaghetti and
