Uncle Joe is the right president at the right time.

He’s cutting through the DC noise and speaking directly to the public.

His parting riff just the put the GOP in the rear view of a great many conservative voters.

FRANCE 24 English

9 hours · 

These #Afghanistan high school #students are taking exams in the #snow... and it's not because of Covid-19. France 24 Observers investigated

https://observers.france24.com/en/middle-east/20210401-holding-exams-in-the-snow-a-sign-of-ethnic-discrimination-in-afghanistan?

-------------



Education for the children is vital for the future of Afghanistan, the children need to have schools with good teachers. We did not just leave Europe in ruins after World War II, we went in and we helped to rebuild Europe after the war, and we helped to rebuild Japan, we can at least help to build schools in Afghanistan.

There are things that we can do to help to lead the Afghans into a bright new future, and educating the children is at the top of the list. And then we can help their economy with business loans to grow cotton and to make stuff from the cotton, etc. And they can raise sheep, etc.

Also of note, is that UNICEF can help the children in Afghanistan.

Salute,

Tony V.

At issue surely now is which charge is upheld.

If manslaughter or third degree, is this a win for prosecution?  Will the public see it as so?

What happens if Chauvin is acquitted of all charges?
More riots?

Instead of giving aid to wealthy countries like Pakistan which do not need the aid, we need to help the truly poor nations which have been ravaged by war, and we need to help the most vulnerable which is the children.

https://www.unicef.org/afghanistan/education

We need peace, and we need to educate the children.

Building schools and educating the children in Afghanistan needs to be a high priority.

Salute,

I’m still trying to figure out which 20 or so republican federal legislators are with Gaetz in the sexual predator caucus.

Paul, Cotton, Cruz, Scott, and Rubio are almost certainly part of the hunt. His involvement is probably why  Pompeo has suddenly ended his political career. Gym Jordan likes all kinds of sexual impropriety, but this involves women and girls so he might not have been as interested as he was in what he supported during his coaching career. Crenshaw, DeSantis, and Nunes are also some to watch.

The GOP culture of corruption is not as protected by a shroud of secrecy as it once was.

Bush made the cross a symbol of larceny. Trump made the cross a symbol of rape. The American church will never recover. Based on what the American church has become, its diminution is something for which we can truly thank God.

Now one of the stabbed police officers had died in hospital.
Cops should've shot the knife-wielding guy instead of giving verbal commands.

If you want a serious discussion of this topic,  you should not give POTUS an insulting title.
