Understandable since they weren't given the usual amount of time to prepare for this.

Horrors! Recommending gay dating sites for LGBTQ kids!

No one has been calling for porn to be available to High School kids (they can probably find it anyway on the internet).

What! We had no idea.

"homosexuality, any of that filth" "That filth" is referring to homosexuality or is "any of that filth" - so he is calling gays filth.

I am sure you do.

His exact words: https://apnews.com/article/congress-north-carolina-media-social-media-religion-5d2500847f66f097deba83305861b208 “There’s no reason anybody anywhere in America should be telling any child about transgenderism, homosexuality, any of that filth,” Robinson said at Asbury Baptist Church in Seagrove.

Scheduling conflict.

Schiff has been my Congressional representative since he was first elected beating James Rogan. As a Democrat I have no problem with his voting record nor about him personally from "the stuff" I've read about him.

And it is censorship and not by liberals no matter how you try to spin it.

Yes, and they have to be invited. If they don't have to be, why didn't Trump just show up there in 2019 if he didn't need an invite from Pelosi?

We are not just talking elementary schools. In fact, very few of the books that have been banned were even available to elementary school kids in the first place (and those that were, were rather innocuous like the one about two male penguins who raise an orphan baby penguin). They want the books banned at the High School level, so that kids can't access or read the books at all if they want to (which were not even part of any required classroom curriculum, from what I've seen).

Yeah, they keep getting all those books banned in schools...oh, wait...

That in itself should be enough. Garvey doesn't stand a chance of winning in November. Schiff had a popular Democratic opponent (Tim supported her) and those votes should pretty much all go to Schiff.

Yes, I do. You should read all the posts in threads you start before commenting. From above, but here it is again, and this is straight from the horse's mouth (so to speak).

https://www.newsnationnow.com/politics/state-of-the-union-2024/#:~:text=The president must be formally,given at a later date. The president must be formally invited to give the address by the speaker of the House; while typically a formality, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., refused to invite former President Donald Trump to give the 2019 address until a government shutdown ended. The speech was given at a later date.

What is sad is that you can't dispute that he thinks all gay people are filth.

Fun Fact: it is being delivered late because he was invited late by Mike Johnson.

Robinson thinks that all gay people are filth. He made no exception for "our patriot non-pedophile friends in the gay community" who he obviously thinks must be filth too.

No. When he was first elected she expressed hope that he would not be as bad as we feared and might learn on the job (since he had no governing experience or experience with working in that type of environment). In 2020 she felt another four years of Trump and the damage might be irreparable to this country, but she didn't say that the country was doomed if he won again.

No, actually she didn't.

And speaking of crime...

Not two months (usually in late January). And from the NYT: Speaker Mike Johnson invited the president to address a joint session of Congress on an unusually late date.

But we have been hearing for months on this forum that he is incapable of even doing the basics. You people have to make up your mind because you can't say he can't put two coherent sentences together and then ignore how well we will deliver his State Of The Union Address.

These figures have got to be out of whack. Violent crime could not have increased 75% in this country and not increased at the same time in individual major cities and we haven't seen evidence of that.
