The White House is coordinating with the Justice Department to hide its abortion agenda from voters until after they've voted in order to try to influence the results of the election.

And the underlying problem is that Republikans whacked SNAP, so more people are desperate for food.

1) Where are all the lawmakers who are so adamant about protecting women in sports? 2) Where are all the clergymen condemning the rapists? 3) Question for Cornell should be: How many times has this happened since 10/24? What have you done to prevent a repeat?

I back in so I can see who/what is in front of the space when I’m leaving. Too many people just walk without looking at the cars around them. And too many drivers just pull out, also without looking. It takes four tries because my backup camera doesn’t show where I am in relation to other cars.

For me it was a historical fiction series set during and after the Civill War. A lot of things didn’t seem quite right, but I finally quit when they started discussing the Wind Chill. The one that wasn’t described?invented? until the 1970s.

No worries. It kind of proves the point, doesn’t it? Courtney has apparently never grasped the idea that free samples are a really good enticement. Nor does she understand that once the email is on a site, who knows where else it goes? I’m on enough Spam lists as it is.

Fair enough. UConn, however, makes no such distinction, yet sports announcers during women’s games still attach “Lady”. In the state, we talk about the “UConn men” or “the men’s team” and “UConn women” or “the women’s team” to clarify which team is the topic of conversation.

Most heard during basketball season, you’ll hear about Tennessee’s Volunteers or Vols with no gender distinction — for the men. The women’s team is invariably the “Lady Vols.” UConn Huskies… “Lady Huskies” Even during women’s game broadcasts.

Check the tracking to make sure your ballot was received at City Hall (or wherever it belongs). If it hasn’t been logged in by Election Day, go to a polling place and request (demand?) to vote with a provisional ballot. Find out how to do that * before* Election Day.

Serious question: If Darlene Norden is her legal married name, how can she run as Darlene Graham? She wouldn’t be allowed to vote, according to Trump’s desired rules. How can she run for office using two different names ? (Aside from she’ll do what he wants, so Trump doesn’t care, this one time.)

I was an administrator in a school with 600 students and 100 faculty/staff and had no direct support. I can’t imagine someone running a company with 700 employees who didn’t have at least one secretary.

Legally is there any such person? One’s legal name should be the one on the ballot, shouldn’t it? Otherwise, how will anyone really know who they’re voting for??

There should be a requirement that meals cannot be included when Congress/court/anyone from the administration attends a conference or gives a speech/presentation etc. They have to pay out of pocket — NOT on expense account or government charge card. If it’s good enough for school kids…

No, there should not be separate classes of voters. The unengaged residents are paying taxes - through rent or property tax and car registrations. They make use of town services. The campus is a separate entity with its own police and often fire dept ( if large enough).

You’ve lost me. Are you suggesting students should or should not vote in their college town?

TeacherTrishSNE @ptinct.bsky.social · 13/08/2026
You didn’t answer the one I posed first 😉: is it fair they can vote as a bloc in favor of something long-term residents don’t want/can’t afford? As to your question: the unengaged residents are at least sharing the financial burden of their votes.

TeacherTrishSNE @ptinct.bsky.social · 13/08/2026
The college students will themselves tell you they are GOING HOME for weekends/Thanksgiving/Christmas/mid-semester /spring/summer breaks. Most schools don’t even *allow* students to stay in dorms over breaks. That doesn’t sound like their residence to me.

TeacherTrishSNE @ptinct.bsky.social · 13/08/2026
Keep in mind they are also voting in local (town) elections, but most have no vested interest in the community. They can tip the vote in favor of a new school that the long-term residents don’t want/can’t afford, and be long gone before the bills come due. That doesn’t seem right.

I’d add Tom Nichols, who may not be a liberal, but he is absolutely pro-democracy and has a better grasp of military and Soviet affairs than anyone; and General Mark Hertling for his observations on defense matters.
