WALSH: We Were Told That Kaepernick Was Protesting Police Brutality, Not The Flag. Now The Truth Has Finally Come Out.

[Pavlov]

The tweet is clear enough:

Ghomert on Nike removing Betsy Ross flag design: Many executives won't know freedom until they lose it.

I don't need to watch any video. If that's what Ghomert really said, the insinuation that executives could lose any "freedom" over business decisions is exactly what big, overreaching government is all about. It's actually *not* surprising Louie would say something inane like that, what's re ed is that somebody would actually think that's some kind of solid take.

You can call that an L, a W, a K or Y, I couldn't care less about interwebs e-rep.

I did watch the video. Lulu was all over the map, either saying Nike was lucky they weren't making American flag shoes for China or threatening that Republicans would take away their freedom to market shoes in America like they were Chinese communists.

It really made no sense at all.

Thanks. That was the concern I was alluding to.

Yeah, it wasn't a prepared answer so he was just making stupid up for sound bites. You could see the little hamster wheel spinning as he spoke. Sad, really -- but sadder that anyone would think it was a good performance.

This top 25 list for places with wealth inequality is littered with locations in Florida and Texas

Regarding drug addiction:

So actually NY and SF are two of the best cities in terms of drug usage, while right wing holes like Wichita and Tulsa can't get off the needle

When you say "you can't make this up", apparently you at least very well can

These stats are all from Sean Reardon of Stanford

https://cepa.stanford.edu/sean-reardon

"Stanford’s Center for Education Policy Analysis demonstrates that the biggest racial divides in school achievement are found in highly liberal districts. By Reardon’s measure, the school districts with the biggest white-black gaps in test scores are: Berkeley, Calif., Chapel Hill, N.C., Evanston, Ill., Asheville, N.C., Washington, D.C., Atlanta, Ga., and University City, Mo., all intensely Democratic"

the average Asian sixth grader in the U.S. scores at 7.1 grade level or +1.6 school years better than the national average of 5.5.

Nationally, whites average 6.3 grade levels or +0.8 years above the national average, Hispanics 4.5 or –1.0 years, and blacks 4.1 or –1.4 grade levels worse than the typical student.


Nationally, the white-black gap in sixth grade is 2.2 years (and the less often discussed Asian-black gap is 3.0 years). The typical white sixth grader has a knowledge level equivalent to a nationally average seventh grader, while the typical black is at the level of an average fifth grader.


In contrast, Berkeley’s black sixth graders average 4.7 grade levels worse than its whites, or 1.9 years below the average student in the U.S. Their 3.6 is a half year worse than the national black average. Despite what Senator Harris implies, smugly progressive Berkeley is bad at educating black children, both relatively and absolutely.
In general, highly liberal school districts, whether in college towns, woke suburbs, or big cities, are worse for racial equality"

probably not many jobs, and hardly any good paying jobs, but racist right-wing politics takes priority over jobs.

AZ assholes who won't get those jobs will still vote Repug

You started by talking about homesless, wealthy inequality and drug addiction. you’ve now switched to the education gap between white and black people.

Pretty remarkable goal post move tbh.

Umm try some reading comprehension...

We were talking about Democratic liberal big cities being the most INEQUALITY ridden places in the USA and this Stanford study bears that out even more by pointing out that liberal bastions do a WORSE job of educating minorities than elsewhere.
All of these topics are kinda relevant to inequality wouldn't you say???

You said INCOME inequality.

Once I took a all over that, you moved the goal posts to general inequality.

it was gohmert, what were you expecting.

same guy, in a hearing with peter strzok, a potentially very serious/important meeting... i mean the guy who they think is principally behind framing POTUS, somebody who had a big role in the biggest investigation in decades... and gohmert's question:

i see you smiling now, did you give your wife the same smile when you were cheating on her?

really, lou? that's what you're going to spend your time on?
