I’m so pumped for my House race. I really think we have a good shot at firing Cruz lackey Chip Roy and putting in Wendy Davis, one of my favorite badass female politicians. That would kick ass. I'm excited for mine too. Since Hurd is not running for reelection, Gina Ortiz Jones has a good chance. She was very close in 2018.

Are you all keeping an eye on what's happening in Syria right now? Overnight Russian forces exchanged fire with Turkey, killing 33 Turkish soldiers. Turkey says they notified Russia of their position and sent warnings to Russia that they were there as the attack began. Russia denies receiving any intel that they were there.
Meanwhile civilians are getting caught in the cross-fire. As per.
What a mess.

Can you IMAGINE if Hillary had answered questions that way during a hearing while she was SoS? I know I always say stuff like this, but my God. The right would be calling for her resignation before she got up from the table.

Anybody who can sit there and watch how this is spreading worldwide and just be like "lolz whateverrrrrrr" is just bizarre. You don't need to be hair on fire but like you should acknowledge this is something we need to be preparing for.

I honestly think that if this happened to K I would show up at the principal's office in a sputtering, incoherent rage. I have invested so much effort into teaching K that she, and only she, is in charge of her body and no one is allowed to lay a finger on her unless she wants them to. There is no gray here, for me.

for those at home Pompeo only gave FA 2 hours. Engel is taking him to task about it. The dems have (rightfully) pointed out that Hilz sat for 11 hours and the gop is like well she should have what about the lives lost in Benghazi.
We are reaching some pretty high levels of travesty in our govt.
hearing is adjourned

Did you guys see in the article that there was another school district with a similar policy but they changed it in 2018. I would put money on betting that this policy exists elsewhere in Utah.

Its Utah. I'm surprised Idaho doesnt have the same policy.
