NEWS JUNKIES -- CHECK OUT OUR HOMEPAGE


Excellent video on National Debt from Congressman Schweikert

 

 


 

 

NOTE FROM KANE

As long as the headlines can be seen, green and red showing up as black for example, that’s fine.

I thought they couldn’t be seen at all for colorblind readers — invisible headlines.

So I’m not worried about it now. Thanks for all the feedback below.

Carry on, CFP Nation.

-‘Eighth graders want to take algebra. SF hasn’t honored a pledge to bring it back’-
“When SFUSD removed Algebra 1 from public middle and K-8 schools in 2014, the goal was to eliminate the “tracking” of students into high or low math tiers in hopes of alleviating racial disparities. But it didn’t work.”

Colombian tinpot should change his name concerned about gasoline.
“The news prompted an immediate response from President Gustavo Petro on social media. Petro posted “Welcome to Colombia, Tesla” on his X account and framed the arrival as an opportunity not only for cleaner mobility but for industrial policy: He suggested Colombia could become a regional center for the manufacture and export of electric vehicles, and argued that internal combustion vehicles should face higher tariffs to accelerate the transition.”

Someone posed the question:

Should all of the Pakistanis in the UK who have raped young British girls be deported?

Hell no! Don’t waste money rewarding them with deportation. Execute them like the rabid animals they are and then dump them in the ocean. They don’t deserve burial unless Pakistan wants to pay for their remains IN ADVANCE.

“Known as Lima Site 6, it was used during the Vietnam War to support bombing secretly carried out by the United States against the communist group Pathet Lao.

So the symbolism was unmistakable when local authorities announced in 2018 that the 300m-long disused airstrip would be taken over by Chinese investors and redeveloped into a site with five-star hotels, a cultural theatre and other tourist attractions.”

AI, or Am I?, being “overused” in elementary schools.
“As major universities grapple with cheating scandals linked to artificial intelligence, concerns are now spreading to the very start of the country’s education system: elementary schools, where students are increasingly outsourcing thinking and assignments to AI tools.”

META: how to tell the world you absolutely hate Trump without words, despite all of your previous backpedaling that all of the previous Trump-hating actions were “misinterpretations”.

Trump should go ahead and launch a narco boat strike on Zuck the next time he’s out water skiing.

“The ruling party’s newspaper, Rodong Sinmun, described jubilant scenes across the capital: “Even young mothers scolded their children to walk faster and stopped in front of the screens, holding them tight as they watched the match,” it said. “The area around Pyongyang Station became a sea of ecstasy.”

Trouble for ‘The Party’?

“LUKOIL’s primary overseas asset is Iraq’s West Qurna-2 oil field, one of the world’s largest, in which it has a 75 percent stake.

LUKOIL sought to sell its worldwide assets in response to US President Donald Trump’s sanctions aimed at pressuring Russia to agree to a cease-fire in its war with Ukraine. However, due to opposition from the US Treasury Department, Switzerland’s Gunvor Group has postponed its plans to acquire the Russian firm’s global holdings, including facilities in Iraq.”
